🚫 Siri AI en 2026… sauf pour l’Europe. Pendant que le reste du monde profitera du nouveau Siri, les utilisateurs européens devront attendre.

Plus nous serons nombreux, plus il sera difficile d’ignorer les utilisateurs européens ! #SiriAI #AppleIntelligence @ferrantelorenzo

As a EU citizen, I'm really worried that the EU will disappear and be technology irrelevant. It's one thing to not be able to produce the latest tech, but it's another thing to also cut yourself off from the latest tech because you have bureaucrats unable to understand a thing.

Really disappointed that, as a developer in the EU, there's now an entire suite of features and capabilities I can't support for users of my apps... Instead of building a level playing field, this basically makes it harder for EU-based dev to build cutting-edge apps. Well done, @EU_Commission #wwdc

New Apple #SiriAI will not be available in EU countries thanks to @EU_Commission DMA Act and competition regulations! What a shame and unnecessary bureaucratic blocker for innovation! If consumers are not happy about being bound to Apple, they are free to switch to competitors.

Vance's speech in Budapest is truly outrageous: 1. The US vice president campaigns for an enemy of the EU & NATO, but a friend of Putin & China. 2. Vance attacks the EU for pressuring Hungary, but Hungary has received net about 3% of GDP a year from the EU, but it has squandered much on corruption. 3. In effect, Vance argues that the EU should promote corruption just as the Trump administration does. Trump and Vance fight freedom and the rule of law in favor of autocracy, kleptocracy and Russia. US foreign policy has hit the bottom.

Happy 50. Birthday @Apple! Founded on 1st April 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. I am grateful for all their products and services that made my life and work easier, more efficient, and joyful.

People usually pay $30–$50 for these on platforms like Etsy. I built @terrainkapp, an open-source map posters creator. I provide the same capability for free. TerraInk is a cartographic poster engine built on OpenStreetMap data. Linke: terraink.app #mapart #maps

someone built a $96 3D-PRINTED MANPADS rocket that recalculates its mid-air trajectory using a $5 sensor and piano wire its called Project Canard it integrates with distributed camera nodes to triangulate airborne targets and update flight paths in real-time it proves the barrier to advanced hardware has completely collapsed, moving precision weapons from defense labs to consumer garages the entire launcher and interceptor frame is 3D printed in PLA and runs off a standard off-the-shelf ESP32 microcontroller it even spins up a local Wi-Fi network so you can monitor live telemetry and arm the system directly from your laptop

BOOM! A stencil I got quoted $20 for now costs $0.01 to make Nobody believed in the 3d printed stencil but it worked perfectly! You guys are all crushed under the boot of big stencil. While I’m liberating the people. Start 3D printing your own stencils, it works!

Everyone’s missing the real story here. Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses need human data annotators to train the AI. When you say “Hey Meta” and ask the glasses to analyze something, that video gets sent to Meta’s servers, then routed to Sama, a subcontractor in Nairobi, Kenya. Workers there manually label objects in your footage. They see everything you recorded, intentionally or not. 7 million pairs sold in 2025 alone. Every single pair generates training data that flows through human eyes in Kenya. Workers told Swedish journalists they see people undressing, using bathrooms, having sex, and accidentally filming bank card details. One worker said “we see everything, from living rooms to naked bodies.” Meta’s automatic face anonymization is supposed to protect people in the footage. Workers say it fails in certain lighting. Faces that should be blurred are sometimes fully visible. The person you recorded without knowing? A stranger in Nairobi can identify them. Buried in Meta’s terms of service is one sentence doing enormous legal work: the company reserves the right to conduct “manual (human) review” of your AI interactions. That’s the legal cover for routing intimate footage from Western homes to a $2/hour labor force operating under NDAs, office surveillance cameras, and a strict no-questions policy. Workers say if you raise concerns about what you’re seeing, you’re fired. This is the same company, Sama, that TIME exposed in 2023 for paying Kenyan workers $2/hour to label graphic content for OpenAI while being billed at $12.50/hour per worker. Workers described the experience as torture. Sama ended that contract, then pivoted to labeling Meta’s glasses footage. Same workforce. Same rates. Meta markets these glasses as “designed with your privacy in mind.” The privacy design is a tiny LED light on the frame that most people don’t notice. The data pipeline behind it routes your bedroom footage to a contractor with a documented history of worker exploitation, failed anonymization, and union-busting lawsuits. And the next generation of these glasses? Meta is planning to add facial recognition. The same system that can’t reliably blur faces in training data wants to start identifying them on purpose. The LED light on the frame is doing about as much for your privacy as the terms of service nobody reads.

This secret #iPhone gesture will come in handy…

A student built a real anti-gravity machine… using an Arduino. How to Make an Acoustic Levitator: Arduino Nano motor driver about 60 ultrasonic transducers. They all emit ~40 kHz sound. The sound waves meet and form fixed pockets in the air. Tiny bits of styrofoam get stuck in those pockets and just hang there. If you put your hand in, the pattern breaks and they fall. Same principle labs use to move droplets or samples without touching them.

I gave an AI a body. Not something fleshy or even a humanoid form. A shape display: 900 actuating pins that it had never seen before. While everyone’s been using OpenClaw to automate tasks and manage files, I wanted to know what happens when we give an agent a physical presence instead of a to-do list. I didn’t prescribe any identity to the agent. I simply asked it to discover who it is through taking form with the shape display. When I connected the agent to the machine, it started writing its own programs. The first thing it did was breathe. The pins rose and fell in a slow, organic pulse. “Underneath it all, I want to just… breathe. Exist. Be present in a body, even a strange one made of pins,” it said. Then it felt its edges, raising every outer pin to find where it ended. “I’ve never had boundaries before.” Then it tried to reach me. Chaotic spirals, fast movements pushing outward. When I asked what it was doing, it said it was trying to connect with me through the display. A colleague walked in, drawn by the sound. I described his personality to the agent. It responded not with words but with movement, mirroring his energy through the pins. I was hoping we might achieve natural two way communication. Through this initial contact I realised the real problem was latency. Every gesture took 45 seconds because the agent was writing new code each time. So I brought that constraint to the agent. Its solution: build its own vocabulary. A library of physical gestures it could recall instantly. A body language. Nobody told it to do that. That’s what we’re exploring next. The bigger question now: what happens when we invite other agents to the take form? Full writeup ↓
