<li><strong>Meta goes nuclear for AI data centers</strong>: Meta has inked deals with Vistra, Oklo, and TerraPower to secure over six gigawatts of nuclear power for its data centers, driven by escalating AI workloads. Vistra will supply 2.1 GW immediately from existing Ohio plants, with more capacity by the early 2030s. Oklo and TerraPower, both SMR startups, are slated to deliver 1.2 GW and 2.8 GW respectively by 2030-2032. This move signals a major shift in the tech sector towards long-term nuclear procurement, though the cost-effectiveness of SMRs remains unproven, as reported by TechCrunch. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/1sXfoaLc2" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Snowflake acquires Observe for AIops and observability</strong>: Snowflake is acquiring Observe, an AI-based SRE platform, to enhance its observability offerings, particularly for AI systems. The goal is to unify monitoring of data pipelines, AI model behavior, and infrastructure health within a single platform, leveraging Snowflake’s Data Cloud for cost-effective telemetry data management. This acquisition aims to address challenges in diagnosing performance and data anomalies in AI-driven applications, positioning Snowflake against traditional observability vendors like Datadog and Splunk. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XlAd95QPv" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>North Korean hackers exploit QR codes for credential theft</strong>: The FBI attributes malicious QR code spear-phishing campaigns to North Korean state-sponsored hackers (Kimsuky/APT43), targeting U.S. think tanks, academic institutions, and government entities. These ‘quishing’ attacks use fake login pages for Microsoft 365, Okta, or VPNs to harvest credentials and bypass multi-factor authentication via session token theft. The use of QR codes helps attackers evade traditional enterprise detection tools, as mobile devices often operate outside managed security perimeters, according to the FBI. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XmPhFlPf5" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<li><strong>Anthropic expands enterprise AI with Allianz partnership</strong>: Anthropic partnered with Allianz to integrate AI tools, including Claude Code and custom AI agents, across the insurer’s workforce, claiming 40% of the enterprise AI market share based on a Menlo Ventures survey. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=D8jNyiFSs&amp;id=DLaOdwegi" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI agents need managers, not just prompts</strong>: Effective use of multiple AI coding agents requires developers to act as async-first managers, delegating tasks, verifying outputs, and managing merge conflicts, rather than just prompting. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/tmcYDkbnT" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Open source retrieval infrastructure for AI production</strong>: Open source databases like Postgres and OpenSearch are adding vector search and hybrid retrieval capabilities to address the bottleneck of weak retrieval infrastructure in RAG pipelines, crucial for enterprise AI deployment. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/Ev2I9xZuO" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Vinted builds global event-driven platform</strong>: Vinted transitioned from a monolith to a globally distributed, event-driven platform handling 300k+ requests/second, using a single-writer, multi-reader architecture and emphasizing eventual consistency and Saga-style orchestration. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=lUNh7QXHC&amp;id=yEYp1crv1" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>PyTorch open-sources torchforge for scalable RL in LLMs</strong>: Meta’s PyTorch team released torchforge, an RL library for large-scale LLM post-training, demonstrating 4x faster iteration and high GPU utilization on a 512-GPU cluster using GRPO with Weaver for reliable reward signals. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/oqIM6pm4Y" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Non-human identity security trends and threats</strong>: The rapid adoption of AI agents is increasing the volume and complexity of non-human identities (NHIs), exposing unmanaged credentials and broad permissions, with AI and ML being applied for real-time anomaly detection and automated threat remediation. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=0XmbFmo97&amp;id=43f4JcvZ9&amp;id=8827svTqM&amp;id=Jc3Gb3RMH&amp;id=kl0LpaKDU&amp;id=lqqfnNpcw&amp;id=xc8AsvvNa" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI could optimize the power grid</strong>: AI can optimize power grids by improving predictions for renewable energy, solving complex supply-demand balancing, and enabling predictive maintenance, provided models respect physical grid constraints. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/lKR8QGVQn" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<li><strong>Google overhauls Gmail with AI, because you needed more AI in your inbox</strong>: Google is launching new AI features in Gmail, turning it into a ‘proactive inbox assistant’ with AI Overviews, ‘Help Me Write,’ and ‘AI Inbox’ powered by Gemini 3. While conversation summaries are free, advanced features like inbox queries will require a paid AI Pro or Ultra subscription. Because who doesn’t want to pay extra for an AI to summarize emails you probably didn’t want to read in the first place, or write replies that sound suspiciously like a bot? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/8lOS5k1vH" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>China investigates Meta’s Manus acquisition, because tech nationalism is the new black</strong>: Chinese authorities are investigating Meta’s acquisition of Manus, an AI platform that relocated from China to Singapore after receiving US venture capital. This probe, set against US-China tech tensions, is all about China’s concern over domestic tech innovation ‘migrating abroad’ after benefiting from state support. Apparently, if you build it in China, it belongs to China, even if you try to move it to Singapore. Good luck with that, Meta. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/Z4bL3wwsW" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Canonical releases ARM64 Steam Snap with x86 emulation, because running Cyberpunk on a DGX Spark is totally normal</strong>: Canonical has released a Steam Snap for Ubuntu ARM64, bundling the x86 Steam client with the FEX emulator, primarily demonstrated on NVIDIA DGX Spark devices. Early tests show Cyberpunk 2077 running at over 200 FPS, which is great if you happen to have a supercomputer lying around. For the rest of us, this ‘experimental’ release is just a reminder that while x86 emulation on ARM Linux is technically possible, your average ARM device probably won’t be running AAA games anytime soon. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/Z9Oa5uBqK" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
