    Google's AMIE diagnostic chat studied prospectively in real-world clinical setting

    AIGoogle says its AMIE medical research system is the first patient-facing conversational diagnostic tool of its kind studied prospectively in a real-world clinical setting. A study published in The Lancet found patients chatting with AMIE before in-person appointments felt more confident and organized their thoughts, while physicians spent less time digging through data and more on collaborative care.

    Curtain launches an MCP server for AI agents to prepare private swaps

    AICurtain has introduced an MCP server that lets AI agents discover supported tokens, get quotes for V2, V3, or Dynamic Privacy routes, and prepare private swap transactions. The server can also track intent status and find permissionless keeper settlement opportunities. It never receives private keys or broadcasts deposits, as the user's wallet reviews and signs each prepared transaction.

    Cramer Says AI Stock Sell-Off Shows Value of Diversification

    AICNBC's Jim Cramer said Thursday's AI stock sell-off, which followed a Financial Times report that OpenAI's annualized revenue was about $20 billion below previously signaled levels, shows why investors need diversification. Oracle fell 5.5% and Broadcom dropped 4.35%, while Home Depot rallied as Treasury yields eased. Cramer argued that concentrated portfolios risk panic-selling and missing a recovery.

    Pocket Aces: open-source Pokémon-Balatro roguelike game with swappable IP

    AIDeveloper Anshu Chatterjee has open-sourced Pocket Aces, a Balatro-style poker roguelike that replaces all Pokémon IP with original characters. The Pokémon assets are modular and can be swapped back in from the PokeAPI repo, though the developer notes the user proceeds at their own risk. The post says the game now works on mobile with reduced-motion options, and the developer is willing to address further bug reports.

    Funke Brings Native HL7v2 Parsing to Databricks Lakehouse

    AIDatabricks has released Funke, a Python and PySpark library and deployable pipeline that parses HL7v2 healthcare messages into native Spark types while preserving the full message hierarchy. It succeeds Smolder, the Scala data source Databricks open-sourced in 2021, and ingests through Auto Loader into Unity Catalog bronze and silver tables. Users can query segments, fields, components, and subcomponents directly with DataFrame or Spark SQL expressions.

    Lakebase Branches Give Parallel Coding Agents Isolated Databases

    AIDatabricks introduces database branching in Lakebase Postgres, letting each coding agent work in its own isolated database branch created in under a second regardless of size. Branches use copy-on-write storage, consuming extra space only as they diverge, and scale to zero when idle so unused branches incur no compute cost. Schema changes are tracked in code and promoted to the parent branch through migrations rather than merged back, and ephemeral branches are created per pull request for testing.

    Isomorphic Labs reportedly raising funds at up to $50B valuation

    AIAlphabet spinoff Isomorphic Labs is reportedly in early-stage talks to raise a new funding round at a valuation of $40 billion to $50 billion, according to Bloomberg, which did not specify the round's size. Isomorphic's flagship AI platform, IsoDDE, is designed to automate binding pocket discovery, which it says is more than 50% better than the closest competing tool, and it models antibody interactions about 2.3 times better than AlphaFold. The company earns revenue through research partnerships with Eli Lilly, Novartis and Johnson & Johnson.

    Chollet: AI progress tracks exponential growth while capex grows faster

    AIFrançois Chollet argues that most AI progress measures from 2023 to 2026 fit an exponential curve, while AI capital expenditure over the same period has grown slightly super-exponentially. He concludes that such externally funded growth is unsustainable, so sustained exponential progress will require matching exponential profits to close the resource loop.

    MIT's Sasha Rakhlin outlines how universities should respond to AI in research and training

    AIMIT Statistics and Data Science Center director Sasha Rakhlin argues that AI progress is fastest where results can be verified quickly, citing a model reaching gold-medal level at the International Mathematical Olympiad a year before models produced new research results. He says departments should reconsider how they reward work, emphasizing question-asking, replication, and disclosure of AI's role in a researcher's contributions. He also urges universities to build shared lab infrastructure that captures failed experiments and tacit expertise.

    Midjourney Tests Thinking Mode for Image Generation on Alpha Site

    AIMidjourney is testing a "Thinking Mode" on its Alpha website, where users can click "Rerun (Thinking)" in a job's lightbox to regenerate an image. The company says early tests show gains in prompt accuracy, typography, and coherence, and it is asking users to share feedback in its #ideas-and-features channel. It may later offer the mode broadly or as an option to add more thinking after a job.

A new thinking mode lets users rerun jobs made with 8.2 standard and edit models to fix missed prompt details such as objects, layout, anatomy, and text. Sharing does not change image privacy, so non-stealth images can still appear on Explore and profiles.
