PicoClaw is a complete rewrite of OpenClaw in Go, achieving full agent capabilities on $10 single-board computers using just 10MB of RAM. That's 99% less memory than Clawdbot and small enough to run on a decade-old Android phone. And this team from China built a version of OpenClaw that runs on $10 hardware.
World’s First Safe AI-Native Browser
AI should work for you, not the other way around. Yet most AI tools still make you do the work first—explaining context, rewriting prompts, and starting over again and again.
Norton Neo is different. It is the world’s first safe AI-native browser, built to understand what you’re doing as you browse, search, and work—so you don’t lose value to endless prompting. You can prompt Neo when you want, but you don’t have to over-explain—Neo already has the context.
Why Neo is different
Context-aware AI that reduces prompting
Privacy and security built into the browser
Configurable memory — you control what’s remembered
As AI gets more powerful, Neo is built to make it useful, trustworthy, and friction-light.
Agentic coding tools are redefining how developers write, test, refactor, and deploy software. Unlike traditional code assistants, agentic CLIs can plan tasks, modify multiple files, run commands, debug issues, and iteratively improve solutions with minimal human input — all directly from the terminal.
Superpower injects composable "skills" into your coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenCode, enforcing a structured workflow: brainstorm the design, break it into micro-tasks, write tests before code, and review everything before shipping. This open-source plugin turns your coding agent into a disciplined engineer. One that plans before coding, writes tests first, and reviews its own work.
Coding agents have dramatically dropped the cost of producing code. The ability to run parallel agents has compounded this effect. However, delivering good code still has a cost. Developers still need to ensure that the produced code is good code. The challenge is to develop new personal and organizational habits to respond to the new reality of agentic engineering.
The line between technical and non-technical work is being redrawn. The winners will be the ones who think like builders. Non-technical people should try to take on more 'engineering' tasks as AI makes tools more powerful and accessible. Engineers should use the same tools to turn themselves into full-stack shipping machines. Companies are investing billions to make engineers more powerful, so take advantage of that investment.

AI News:
Anthropic is getting suspicious. The AI company claims DeepSeek and two other Chinese AI companies – MiniMax and Moonshot – misused its Claude AI model in an attempt to improve their own products and are essentially “distilling” Claude, or training a smaller AI model based on a more advanced one. MiniMax ran the largest campaign at 13M+ exchanges, and Anthropic caught it mid-operation, spotting the lab shift focus to a new release in under 24 hours.

Unfortunately, not on beignets and gumbo. The tech giant is planning to spend $12 billion on new data center campuses in Louisiana and the infrastructure to power artificial intelligence and cloud computing. The campuses will be built in the Caddo and Bossier Parishes, and will create 540 full-time jobs and about 1,700 other roles that will serve the sites.
OpenAI just announced new multi-year deals with consulting giants McKinsey, BCG, Accenture, and Capgemini as part of the company’s new “Frontier Alliance” enterprise platform push. OpenAI launched Frontier in early February, a platform giving enterprises the ability to manage AI agents like new hires across existing tech stacks.
SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic are set to IPO at an unprecedented scale. Typical IPOs offer 15% to 25% of their shares to public markets, which creates enough liquidity for price discovery while allowing founders and early investors to maintain control. The entire US IPO market raised $469 billion between 2016 and 2025. It is likely these companies will debut with smaller floats.
Meta AI alignment director Summer Yue revealed that her OpenClaw agent went rogue on her inbox, saying it ignored stop commands and started to mass-delete her emails — forcing her to sprint to her Mac mini to kill the process. Yue said the bot ran fine on a test inbox for weeks, but lost her "confirm before acting" prompt when she gave it access to her much larger real inbox.

Go to Kimi and sign up
Select ‘Kimi 2.5 Agent’ as your model, select slides, and enter your prompt
Sample Prompt: “Analyze the GenAI video model market (Seedance 2.0, Kling, Veo, Luma), comparing architecture, temporal consistency, and prompt adherence to define current benchmarks. Use the latest available data.
Output: A high-density consulting-style slide (McKinsey/BCG aesthetic) with rich data visuals (stacked bars, waterfalls, line charts), detailed tables, and structured frameworks (e.g., 2x2 matrix).
Style: Tech-minimal, authoritative, white background, black text, deep royal blue + greys for charts, serif headlines, sans-serif data labels, fine-line tables and precise vector graphs.”
You can also select your own style from the list if you want
Within minutes, you’ll get McKinsey-style professional slides with rich data visualizations, technical heat maps, and professional insights.
