China Expands Travel Curbs to Top AI Talent at Private Firms
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-26/china-expands-travel-curbs-to-top-ai-talent-at-private-firms Now it will be much harder to poach Chinese AI talents like the former Qwen head Junyang Lin.

Nobody wants to tell me why they only listen to their own Suno slop
Do you even like art? | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images There's this alarming trend in the Suno subreddit. People aren't just prompting AI songs; they're sitting around listening almost exclusively to their own slop. And in some cases, they proudly proclaim that they don't listen to music on traditional streaming platforms anymore - it's just AI all day. "Does anyone just listen to their own music now and not even music on Spotify anymore.?" "I definitely listen to my own music most of the time now. Why wouldn't I? It's album after album of bangers" "Guilty as charged. It's an infectious addiction, and I love it." "I thought I was the only one that had an addiction to suno."

Built an AI companion architecture with real internal needs — looking for first investor after publishing research paper
The problem with every AI product right now is that they're all wrappers. Same stateless LLM, different UI. The moment the context window closes, the AI forgets you existed. I built the infrastructure layer that fixes that. PHI // DRIFT gives an AI companion persistent state — seven internal need variables that drift between sessions, memory scored by what emotionally mattered not just what was semantically close, and a real-time telemetry dashboard showing the AI's internal state as it runs. This isn't a product yet. It's a published architecture with a research paper, 18k+ lines of working code, and 10 GitHub stars in the first 24 hours with zero marketing spend. The SaaS opportunity is clear: — Every company building AI companions needs this infrastructure layer — Enterprise AI that actually remembers context across sessions commands premium pricing — Security tooling that maintains reasoning state across bug bounty sessions is immediately monetizable I built this in 5 months o
Just published my first AI project an Obsidian second brain
I always had this problem. Every time I started a new session with an AI agent I had to explain everything from scratch. What I'm working on. What I already know. What I learned last week. It was exhausting and half the time I just gave up re-explaining and got a generic answer. And all the stuff I actually learned across sessions? Just gone. Buried somewhere in hundreds of chats I'll never find again. So I built something to fix that. It's an Obsidian vault designed from the ground up to work as an agent workspace. You drop a `CLAUDE.md` in the root and every AI tool — Claude Code, Hermes, Codex, whatever you use — reads it at startup and immediately knows who you are, what you're working on, and where to put new notes. No more re-explaining. No more lost sessions. Every agent has its own personality file. After every session it writes a summary and creates notes automatically. The vault grows with you. Would love to hear if anyone else has been dealing with the same problem — or
I found a way for Ollama uses to get better Memory yet cheaper alternatives since OLLAMA now uses GPU usage. True memory that auto updates constantly as an individual or a team setting. HERMES USERS
I rephrase it with AI to make it more readable. I see a lot of people running into the same issue I have. It’s not just that bigger models are slower. GPU usage is also very high, and it drains fast. Ollama just isn’t what it used to be. I use DeepSeek V4 Flash, which works great. For heavier coding tasks or certain complex prompts, I switch to the Pro version. But on Pro, each prompt eats about 3–5% of my usage. (I’m on the Pro plan.) Memory has always been a hot topic. Hermes Native does a decent job. Here’s how its built‑in memory system works: memory_enabled – After every turn, the agent can write notes into MEMORY.md user_profile_enabled – The agent watches for user preferences and writes them to USER.md flush_min_turns: 6 – Every 6 turns, Hermes runs a “consolidate” pass: it re‑reads the recent conversation and rewrites MEMORY.md to capture new info nudge_interval: 10 – Every 10 turns, Hermes nudges the agent with “Anything to remember?” What I found: Atomic Memory
Agentic AI frameworks
Hi, so I have grasped a lot of theory about building agentic systems but I want to apply it am get my hands dirty. Which framework should I start with as an individual learner, since there are a lot of them I am kinda confused.

I made my own Jarvis

Rethinking organizational design in the age of agentic AI
Amid rapidly growing adoption of enterprise-level AI agents, there’s a disconnect emerging between ambition and execution. Although 85% of organizations say they want to be agentic within the next three years, 76% say their current operations and infrastructure can’t support that change. They cite a lack of readiness across people, processes, and workflows. The sticky…
Sundar Pichai on AI, the future of search, and what’s happening to the web
Today, I’m talking with Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, in a conversation we recorded just after the Google I/O developer conference. This is the fifth year Sundar and I have sat down after I/O, and it’s become one of my favorite Decoder traditions. There’s always a lot of news at I/O, and this year was no exception — Google has powerful new Gemini models, it’s putting AI agents in everything, and it’s making huge changes to Search on both the web and YouTube that will once again reshape the information ecosystem. That’s a lot to talk about, and Sundar and I got into all of it. But I also realized it’s been a long time since I’d asked Sundar the Decoder questions about structure and decision making, so I started there. You’ll hear Sundar say he realized he needed to rethink how Google worked a few years ago in response to ChatGPT, and he made a lot of executive changes and big decisions to get the company in a more aggressive posture.

AI warfare is already here
The Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, an international forum that focuses on lethal autonomous systems, is hosted twice a year at the United Nations in Geneva. When Branka Marijan attended in November 2017, she thought the five-day sessions - which dealt largely in hypotheticals, speculating on a world where warfare was fought with killer robots - would be business as usual. After all, this was technology some thought might never be developed, and likely never deployed. That year, she quickly realized, was different. That distant, imagined future was suddenly closer and realer than ever. On the first day, some attendees watched a … Read the full story at The Verge.
