Databricks has closed a funding round led by Coatue Management that values it at $188 billion, surpassing the $175 billion previously discussed. This milestone underscores the growing demand for data infrastructure and artificial intelligence in the enterprise.
Vint Cerf, internet pioneer, is working on a new standard for AI agents to identify themselves when browsing. The initiative aims to balance automation and control, and could redefine web governance.
1Password has introduced '1Password for Claude', an integration that allows Anthropic's AI assistant to log into services on behalf of the user without accessing passwords. The solution is based on a zero-exposure architecture and requires biometric approval for each use, marking a milestone in the security of AI agents.
OpenAI is preparing to launch its first physical device: a screenless smart speaker designed by Jony Ive. Powered by ChatGPT, the device will function as a home assistant with natural conversation and smart home control capabilities. The news, reported by Bloomberg, changes expectations about the company's hardware strategy.
SAP has completed the purchase of Prior Labs for over one billion euros, betting on an AI model specialized in tabular data (spreadsheets and databases). The deal, already closed after obtaining regulatory approvals, integrates the German team into SAP's structure and could redefine how companies analyze their structured data.
An AI-assisted brain implant has allowed a man with complete quadriplegia to regain movement and tactile sensitivity in his hand for over two years. The system, called a double neural bypass, not only works in real time but appears to induce lasting changes in the nervous system.
Brex has developed a radical approach to governing AI agents: instead of writing static rules, they observe the agents' actual behavior on the network and decide permissions using an LLM-judge. Their platform CrabTrap, an open source HTTP/HTTPS proxy, intercepts every request and evaluates its policy on the fly.
San Francisco's district attorney has sent cease and desist letters to Apple and Google demanding the removal of eight apps that use AI to undress images of people without their consent. The case exposes gaps in app store moderation and could accelerate stricter regulations against pornographic deepfakes.
The rise of artificial intelligence is causing a shortage of high-capacity RAM and storage in smartphones, slowing sales in India. Manufacturers like Samsung and Xiaomi face higher costs and delays, while consumers are forced to pay more for devices capable of running local AI.
Eoptolink, a key supplier of optical transceivers for Google and Amazon data centers, has applied for a secondary listing in Hong Kong that could raise up to $5 billion. The deal highlights the quiet growth of the physical infrastructure underpinning the AI boom.
Databricks has reached a valuation of $188 billion, establishing itself as one of the most valuable players in artificial intelligence. The company, which started as a spin-off of Apache Spark, has managed to reposition itself as a benchmark in enterprise AI thanks to its open-source models and cost-efficiency focus.
Intuit, a pioneer in agentic AI, has had to rebuild its agent architecture twice in four months. First it moved from specialist agents to a central orchestrator, but that failed due to error accumulation in context transfers. The second rebuild, completed in 60 days, adopts a skills-and-tools approach with promising results.
