Would you host part of an AI data center in your home?

A solar and home energy storage company is expanding into AI data centers, but not by building one - instead, it's offering to pay its customers to put its compute units in their homes. Sunrun is launching a pilot program for a new "distributed AI compute" program that will "place numerous compute nodes in homes equipped with Sunrun solar and battery storage systems." Customers will be "compensated" for participating in the pilot program. Sunrun plans to sell the distributed compute power from the nodes to "enterprise compute buyers," like AI companies. It's a new approach to finding resource...

Accelerating End-to-End Co-Folding Performance with NVIDIA BioNeMo Agent Toolkit

Biomolecular structure prediction and co-folding with models like OpenFold3 are now mainstream, large-scale workloads powering drug discovery and protein... Biomolecular structure prediction and co-folding with models like OpenFold3 are now mainstream, large-scale workloads powering drug discovery and protein design. Increasingly, they’re driven end-to-end by AI agents. For an agent to run that pipeline well, every step needs to be fast and scalable: Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) generation, co-folding inference, serving, and multi-GPU scale-out. Source

Microsoft’s carbon emissions went up 25 percent last year

Microsoft may once again be struggling to keep up with its own climate goals, according to its 2026 sustainability report. As reported by GeekWire, the report states that Microsoft's carbon emissions increased 25 percent in 2025, totalling 34 million metric tons "without select interventions." Microsoft says this was "driven primarily by the expansion of our datacenter infrastructure," as well as the company's decision last February to stop purchasing "non-additional, unbundled renewable energy certificates." Several years ago, Microsoft set itself a goal to be carbon negative by 2030, meanin...

Fidji Simo steps down from leading OpenAI’s AGI work due to illness

OpenAI's Fidji Simo is departing her full-time role as the company's AGI chief and is transitioning to being a "part-time advisor," she said on X. The news follows Simo's original announcement in April that she would take a few weeks of medical leave due to a neuroimmune condition, shortly after she had taken on the AGI chief title. (She had formerly been the company's CEO of applications). Around the same time, COO Brad Lightcap also stepped down from his role to focus on "special projects," and OpenAI CMO Kate Rouch also stepped down in order to focus on her health. Rouch planned to return ...

The ChatGPT browser is already dead

OpenAI is already shutting down ChatGPT Atlas, its browser that could do tasks for you on your behalf, less than a year after launching it. Atlas was announced in October, but as part of its wave of news about ChatGPT Work today, the company confirmed that it will be "sunsetting" Atlas and is targeting an August 9th date for deprecation. In recent months, OpenAI has also shut down the video generation app Sora and paused plans for a ChatGPT "adult mode" as it works to reduce "side quests" and catch up with Anthropic on productivity features. In a thread about the ChatGPT Work announcements, w...

Anthropic found a hidden space where Claude puzzles over concepts

The AI firm Anthropic has developed a technique that has given it the clearest glimpse yet at what’s really going on inside large language models as they answer questions or carry out tasks. What they found ranges from the mundane to the unnerving. Researchers at the company built a tool called the Jacobian lens (or…

Google will now tell you if an ad was made with AI

You can see if ads on Google Search, Google Discover, and YouTube were made or edited using AI from a new section in Google's "My Ad Center," as reported earlier by TechCrunch. The update, announced on Thursday, adds a "created or edited with AI" label under the "how this ad was made" tab. Users can find it by tapping the three dots or info button on ads, which pulls up the same panel where you can also block or report ads. Google says it will automatically apply the AI label to any ads made with its own generative AI advertising tools, but AI ads made elsewhere will need to have the label ap...

Synthetic Data Generation for Financial AI Research with NVIDIA NeMo

Fine-tuning LLMs for financial natural language processing (NLP) is constrained by limited, imbalanced data. Real-world financial news overrepresents earnings... Fine-tuning LLMs for financial natural language processing (NLP) is constrained by limited, imbalanced data. Real-world financial news overrepresents earnings and stock movements, while rarer events such as credit-rating changes, product approvals, and labor issues are harder to capture at scale. Synthetic generation can help fill those gaps for trading research, risk modeling, and surveillance… Source
