Why a Chinese Robot Vacuum Company Spun Off Not One but 2 EV Brands
The pivot doesn’t look out of place at CES, where Chinese electronics companies are increasingly applying their manufacturing prowess to new industries.
One image is all robots need to find their way
While the capabilities of robots have improved significantly over the past decades, they are not always able to reliably and safely move in unknown, dynamic and complex environments. To move in their surroundings, robots rely on algorithms that process data collected by sensors or cameras and plan future actions accordingly.
Nous Research’s NousCoder-14B is an open-source coding model landing right in the Claude Code moment
Nous Research, the open-source artificial intelligence startup backed by crypto venture firm Paradigm, released a new competitive programming model on Monday that it says matches or exceeds several larger proprietary systems — trained in just four days using 48 of Nvidia’s latest B200 graphics processors. The model, called NousCoder-14B, is another entry in a crowded …
Traces of Leonardo da Vinci’s DNA May Have Been Discovered on a Red Chalk Drawing Called ‘Holy Child’
Researchers suggest that they have recovered sequences from ancient works and from letters that may belong to the Renaissance genius.
With some help from AI, your next move can be predicted
AI might know where you’re going before you do. Researchers at Northeastern University used large language models, the kind of advanced artificial intelligence normally designed to process and generate language, to predict human movement.
Lenovo’s Legion Pro Rollable Gaming Laptop Goes Ultrawide at the Press of a Key
Lenovo brought a Legion gaming laptop to CES this year with a rollable OLED display that expands horizontally by six inches.
Scientists create robots smaller than a grain of salt that can think
Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the robots swim by manipulating electric fields rather than using moving parts. They can detect temperature changes, follow programmed paths, and even work together in …

Ancient board game tactics help AI unlock optimal cooling strategies
It’s a simple law of physics: When electricity or fuel powers a machine, the machine gets hotter. Finding new ways to cool machines quickly and controllably can mean the difference between a functioning electrical grid and a blackout or a working data center and a widespread outage.
The creator of Claude Code just revealed his workflow, and developers are losing their minds
When the creator of the world’s most advanced coding agent speaks, Silicon Valley doesn’t just listen — it takes notes. For the past week, the engineering community has been dissecting a thread on X from Boris Cherny, the creator and head of Claude Code at Anthropic. What began as a casual sharing of his personal …
Jensen Huang Says Nvidia’s New Vera Rubin Chips Are in ‘Full Production’
The chip giant says Vera Rubin will sharply cut the cost of training and running AI models, strengthening the appeal of its integrated computing platform.
