Enigma, a research lab set to emerge from stealth on Monday, is taking a fundamentally different approach. Rather than focusing purely…

Accessibility paywall on Meta Glasses ‘paused’ after condemnation [U]
Ray-Ban Meta Glasses and the latest cheaper non-designer option are sold on the basis of the built-in AI features, but in early July the company announced a “ridiculous” limit on the free usage you can make of an accessibility feature. Effectively, Meta has retroactively applied a paywall to a hardware product it already sold to customers. Update: The social network has now said it is “pausing” plans to paywall the feature – see the…

The path to artificial superintelligence
Imagine a healthcare system made up of multiple AI agents: one that manages symptom assessment, another scheduling, a third insurance, and a fourth pharmacy. Each is an expert in its domain.

Today, bringing a new drug to market takes an average of 10-15 years and costs anywhere from $1 billion to $2.5 billion, with failure rates upward of 90%. AI has become the pharmaceutical industry’s…
