Exclusive interview: With all eyes on GPT-5, AI lab cohere quietly dropped a big release 👀 I spoke to Aidan Gomez about his new AI agents platform North, and why he calls privacy “the most important, underrated and under-appreciated bottleneck” in AI. upstartsmedia.com/p/cohere-ceo-e…

🙌 Nicely done Aidan Gomez and the cohere team!

Welcome Joelle and Francois. Great to have you onboard. Huge hires for cohere

Veo is so impressive

Fantastic new launch by cartesia. Makes building voice agents super easy.... great work by the team!

You can now deploy AI voice agents to LiveKit Cloud. We handle: • Stateful load balancing • Capacity management • Draining and instant rollbacks • Operational observability

New reasoning model for real world use :) It turns out math reasoning isn’t directly correlated with tool use, agentic, or multilingual reasoning So we trained a new model. Weights available now.

Most companies optimize for looking busy instead of being productive. The difference: busy feels urgent and scattered. Productive feels calm and intentional. Your energy is finite. Spend it on what actually moves the needle.

Your company culture isn't what you put on the wall—it's what you tolerate in the hallways. Every time you let mediocrity slide, you're teaching everyone what "good enough" looks like. Standards aren't set by your best performers. They're set by your worst ones you keep around.

Back in my Cisco days, while working on an M&A deal, I was rebuffed by our counterpart. I reported to my CEO, John T. Chambers, that we weren’t going to get this deal done. John paused for a minute and said, “‘No’ is just the first step on a journey to ‘Yes’”. Words to live by.

haven't felt this way about a product since i first saw react in 2012

Super excited to be backing this amazing effort to accelerate science. Looking forward to great things from William Fedus Ekin Dogus Cubuk and the Periodic Labs team!

16 seconds in is the highlight.

Excited to announce series C financing extension and expansion of the leadership team at ClickHouse! clickhouse.com/blog/clickhous… We passed 2,000 customers and more than quadrupled ARR over the past year, adding companies like Anthropic, Cyera, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Insider,

This summer we Hanabi Capital had the pleasure of bringing on our first intern, @notkrishparikh. During his time with us, he ran an analysis comparing leading code agents (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) across 500 real-world GitHub issues — looking at quality, latency, and cost.

Sonic-3 is super cool, especially for realtime conversations. Great job by the team Cartesia
