Meta sold over 7 million Ray-Ban smart glasses in 2025 and locked up 76.1% of the market. Google's competing Android XR glasses don't ship until autumn 2026 — and the two companies aren't even building the same product.
AI code review has crossed from novelty to default practice at most engineering shops, but tool-level false positive rates of 5-15% mean teams are trading review speed for a new kind of review debt.
Companies that last raised money before November 2022 are trading at 52-68% discounts on secondary markets, even as post-ChatGPT AI startups command record valuations — a split that's reshaping how VCs price risk.

The SuperC consortium used machine-learning pre-screening to identify two previously unknown superconductors in weeks instead of years. The real breakthrough isn't the materials — it's a search method that could work through billions of candidates.
Machine identities now outnumber humans by up to 500 to 1 inside modern enterprises, and roughly 99% of those identities hold more access than they need. That gap is becoming the biggest blind spot in corporate security.
Varda Space Industries has now flown and safely reentered six orbital manufacturing missions, while UK startup Space Forge has grown plasma at 1,000°C aboard a free-flying satellite. Neither is a demo anymore — both are building toward regular commercial production.
A new comparison of Claude Code and OpenCode found one harness sends 4.7x more tokens than the other before processing a single instruction — and the gap compounds badly once you add subagents.
