Claude Fable 5's read on its own shutdown:
Wow - Anthropic is suspending all access to Fable and Mythos after the U.S. government's export control directive. The government designation would restrict access to any foreign national (even those in the country). The government cited reports of Fable jailbreaking in the order, which Anthropic appears to disagree with. "We believe the government should have the ability to block unsafe deployments, as part of a statutory process that is transparent, fair, clear, and grounded in technical facts. This action does not adhere to those principles."

"I hired one engineer for the farm. His name is Codex." Awesome profile from @OpenAI on Hiroki Tomiyasu, a broccoli farmer in northern Japan who automated his own farm with AI. Tomiyasu never studied agriculture, but runs 100 hectares of broccoli, pumpkins, green onions, and soybeans using custom tools built with Codex and ChatGPT. Some of the coolest use cases: - Built a greenhouse control system with Codex to raise and lower vents via text, plus a bot in the farm group chat to manage operations - Takes photos of crops to identify diseases, with ChatGPT triaging whether they need intervention right in the field - Pulls live satellite vegetation data onto maps of his actual fields to analyze and decide what each plot needs - Asked ChatGPT to draw the wiring diagram for his homemade control box, and Images 2.0 returned one fully annotated in Japanese Tomiyasu says the experience "feels like having an ultra-talented engineer always by your side." You can just build things

The 2026 World Cup opens today in Mexico City, and it might be the most AI-wired tournament in sports history. How FIFA is leveraging the tech on and off the pitch: - An optical tracking system with 16 cameras per venue, capturing more than 150M data points per match. - Offside alerts delivered as audio straight into assistant referees' earpieces, triggered the moment an attacker strays more than 10cm past the line. - All 1,248 players 3D-scanned into avatars for broadcast offside replays. - An Adidas match ball with a motion sensor reporting 500 times a second. - Referee body cams in all 104 matches, with Lenovo AI stabilizing the first-person feed in real time. - Football AI Pro, a generative-AI match analyst, handed to each of the 48 teams for pre- and post-match breakdowns.

A tiny robot is gaining the skills to perform surgeries inside the body. Researchers at Nanyang Technological University built a millimeter-scale magnetic soft robot that can perform five different internal functions. Measuring 4.4 mm at its widest, the robot is steered wirelessly by weak magnetic fields, crawling or rolling through tissue before switching tools in under a second. A reprogrammable magnetic core lets it cut tissue, grip and store samples, dispense drugs, and heat tumors. In tests on gelatin and chicken liver, over 99% of exposed cells survived. Still confined to the lab, researchers say it could one day perform minimally invasive procedures, such as biopsies, targeted drug delivery, and localized heating of tumors, in confined regions of the body that are difficult to reach with normal surgical instruments.

Ready for the World Cup? Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot is. A couple weeks ago, Hyundai and Boston Dynamics released “School of Football,” a five-part campaign starring the electric Atlas robot ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The films follow Atlas learning soccer, culminating in the “Rabona,” a difficult cross-legged trick shot. Boston Dynamics’ engineers captured professional players’ motion, retargeted it to Atlas, then trained the robot through reinforcement learning across thousands of cloud GPUs, compressing about a year of practice into a day. Hyundai plans to train Atlas at its Georgia plant, aiming to deploy humanoids in factory work.
