β οΈ Amazon engineers followed AI advice and disrupted AWS for 13 hours
In December, Amazonβs AI assistant Kiro suggested deleting and recreating an environment. Engineers approved the action. Something went wrong, and AWS services experienced disruptions for 13 hours.
Amazon says the incident was caused by human error. The engineer who granted Kiro permission had overly broad access rights.
The company introduced additional staff training and tightened security controls.

π€ Anthropic launches Claude Code Security and upgrades Desktop
Anthropic released Claude Code Security, an agent that scans full repositories and finds complex context-level vulnerabilities.
It uncovered 500+ issues in production open source projects, some decades old.
The agent reasons across the codebase instead of relying on fixed SAST rules.
Claude Code Desktop now runs Server Previews, fixes console errors, reviews before push, monitors PRs, and supports auto-merge.

π Chrome adds built-in Split View for two tabs in one window
Google rolled out Split View in Chrome. Users can now place two tabs side by side inside a single window, without extensions.
The feature is aimed at people who switch between tabs constantly. Teachers use it to review assignments. Developers keep documentation visible while coding. Some take notes while watching YouTube.
It simplifies basic multitasking inside the browser.

+1β¬οΈ The quiet creator of WinRAR
Eugene Roshal built WinRAR and largely stayed out of the spotlight.
RAR stands for Roshal Archive.
He avoided Silicon Valley, skipped media attention, and kept his personal life private.
WinRAR became one of the most installed software tools in the world. The 40-day trial became a running joke since it never truly locked users out.
Estimated net worth ranges between $100M and $250M.
While others chased headlines, he built a compression algorithm that powered millions of PCs.

π‘ Microsoft builds glass data storage with 10,000-year lifespan
Microsoft developed a glass-based data storage system using laser-written 3D pixels inside transparent glass. The company says it is the first to offer a full end-to-end system for writing, storing, and reading this format.
Data is written with a femtosecond laser that alters the glass structure through ultra-short pulses. The changes do not damage the material and can only be detected optically. Reading requires a microscope, while convolutional neural networks help reduce errors caused by noisy light signals.
Tests suggest the medium can preserve data for up to 10,000 years, compared to 40β50 years for typical storage without maintenance. Density reaches about 4.8 TB on a ~12 cmΒ² disk.
Storage consumes virtually no energy once written.

π Waymo robotaxis stop running in heavy rain and snow
Waymo robotaxis rely on LiDAR for perception. In heavy rain, snow, or dust, the sensor struggles due to reflection and scattering.
As a result, the vehicles are taken offline during strong precipitation.
Autonomous driving still has weather limits.

π΅ Google launches Lyria 3 with music generation from text, images, and video
Google introduced Lyria 3, a new music generation model. It creates tracks up to 30 seconds long and is already available in the Gemini app and on desktop, with a wider rollout coming soon.
Lyria 3 is multimodal. Users can generate music from a text prompt, or upload a photo or video and get a track that matches the mood and context of that content.
Google says every composition includes an invisible watermark. Distribution gets easier. Attribution becomes part of the product.

π Claude Code can now generate full designs directly in Figma
Claude Code is now integrated with Figma, allowing it to generate complete, editable designs inside Figma.
The reverse flow already existed through Figma MCP, turning designs into code. This update completes the loop. Code written in the IDE can be translated into structured Figma layers, adjusted visually, then pushed back into code.
Development no longer has to follow a strict idea β design β code sequence. A product can start in code, move into design for review, then return to code with changes applied.
It turns coding agents into design-aware collaborators.

A new video shows how far Chinese humanoid robots have progressed over the past year.
In early 2025, most demos focused on basic dance routines and controlled movements.
Now, the same class of robots is performing jump flips and more dynamic maneuvers.

πApple prepares 3 AI wearables built around visual Siri
Mark Gurman reports that Apple is accelerating work on three wearable devices centered on Siri with visual context.
πΈ The first is smart glasses, code-named N50, positioned as a rival to Ray-Ban Meta. They would include two cameras, one for photos and video, another for computer vision similar to Vision Pro. There is no display. Interaction runs through speakers, microphones, and Siri. Production is targeted for December, with a potential 2027 release.
πΈ The second is a pendant device, roughly AirTag-sized, worn as a clip or necklace. It includes a camera and microphone and relies on the iPhone for processing. Unlike Humane AI Pin, it would function as an iPhone accessory rather than a standalone product. The project remains early stage and could launch in 2027.
πΈ The third is AirPods with a low-resolution camera designed to provide visual context for AI. Rumors have circulated since 2024, with a possible release this year.
At a recent internal meeting, Tim Cook said Apple is working on new product categories enabled by AI.
Appleβs next hardware cycle may revolve around giving Siri eyes.

π€ The man who taught AI to see
If you have ever scanned a bank card with your phone camera or watched an app extract data from a receipt, you used technology shaped by Yann LeCun.
In the 1980s, computer vision was stuck. Systems tried to process entire images at once, consumed heavy compute, and produced weak results. LeCun took a different path inspired by biology. He designed neural networks that break images into small patterns like edges and curves, then assemble meaning from those pieces.
In 1989, he introduced a handwritten digit recognition system. By the 1990s, his algorithms were processing roughly 10% of bank checks in the US. It was one of the first cases where neural networks delivered measurable profit to large companies.

π Apple to unveil $699 MacBook with A18 Pro in March
Mark Gurman reports that Apple plans to announce a lower-cost MacBook at its March event. The device is expected to start at $699.
Instead of an M-series chip, it will use the A18 Pro from the iPhone 16 Pro. While positioned below Apple Silicon M chips, the A18 Pro is said to approach original M1-level performance. The display is rumored at 12.9 inches. Apple has also developed a cheaper and faster aluminum manufacturing process for the chassis.
Color testing reportedly includes light yellow, light green, blue, pink, silver, and dark gray. Current MacBook Air models start at $999.
A sub-$700 Mac would reset the entry point to the Mac lineup.
