Mustafa Suleyman: AI development won’t hit a wall anytime soon—here’s why
We evolved for a linear world. If you walk for an hour, you cover a certain distance. Walk for two hours and you cover double that distance. This intuition served us well on the savannah. But it catastrophically fails when confronting AI and the core exponential trends at its heart. From the time I began…
Unionized ProPublica staff are on strike over AI, layoffs, and wages
Unionized staff at ProPublica, one of the country's leading nonprofit newsrooms, are walking off the job for 24 hours beginning Wednesday and asking the public to honor a digital picket line. The roughly 150 members of the ProPublica Guild are in the midst of negotiating a collective bargaining agreement after unionizing in 2023. The union says key issues are still in contention, including protections around the use of AI, "just cause" provisions around disciplining or firing an employee, layoff protections, and wages. "We've been working to resolve this quietly for over two years," says Katie Campbell, a ProPublica Guild member. "This is … Read the full story at The Verge.

Spotify’s Prompted Playlists can help you find new podcasts to listen to
On Tuesday, Spotify expanded its Prompted Playlists feature to include podcasts, an update that could make it easier for Premium users to find new shows to listen to.

Suno and major music labels reportedly clash over AI music sharing
The AI-powered musicmaker Suno is struggling to reach licensing deals with Universal Music Group and Sony Music Entertainment. That's according to a report from the Financial Times, which says both sides can't agree on whether users should be able to share the AI-generated songs they create. "Universal wants AI-generated tracks to stay inside apps such as Suno and not spread freely across the internet. Suno, however, wants users to be able to share and distribute those songs more widely," the Financial Times reports. Suno, which lets users create AI-generated music with a text prompt, became the subject of a massive copyright lawsuit from U … Read the full story at The Verge.

Anthropic limits access to Mythos, its new cybersecurity AI model
A select group of customers is testing the Claude Mythos Preview.
The vibes are off at OpenAI
OpenAI is in a relatively precarious position. The company is and has been a funding behemoth - just over a week ago, it closed $122 billion in funding at a post-money valuation of $852 billion. It's potentially planning for an IPO later this year. ChatGPT's longtime lead in consumer-facing AI led it to name-brand status akin to "Kleenex" for tissues. But in recent months, a slew of executive reshufflings, discontinued projects, and other news has raised questions about how stable the company really is - and how long it may be able to stay on top. OpenAI's current batch of public controversies started early in the year. At the end of Febru … Read the full story at The Verge.

Enabling agent-first process redesign
Unlike static, rules-based systems, AI agents can learn, adapt, and optimize processes dynamically. As they interact with data, systems, people, and other agents in real time, AI agents can execute entire workflows autonomously. But unlocking their potential requires redesigning processes around agents rather than bolting them onto fragmented legacy workflows using traditional optimization methods. Companies…
$\pi^2$: Structure-Originated Reasoning Data Improves Long-Context Reasoning Ability of Large Language Models
arXiv:2604.05114v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study a pipeline that curates reasoning data from initial structured data for improving long-context reasoning in large language models (LLMs). Our approach, $\pi^2$, constructs high-quality reasoning data through rigorous QA curation: 1) extracting and expanding tables from Wikipedia, 2) from the collected tables and relevant context, generating realistic and multi-hop analytical reasoning questions whose answers are automatically determined and verified through dual-path code execution, and 3) back-translating step-by-step structured reasoning traces as solutions of QA pairs given realistic web-search context. Supervised fine-tuning with \textsc{\small{gpt-oss-20b}} and \textsc{\small{Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507}} on $\pi^2$ yields consistent improvements across four long-context reasoning benchmarks and our alike $\pi^2$-Bench, with average absolute accuracy gains of +4.3% and +2.7% respectively. Notably, our dataset facilitates self-di
