China completes world’s first commercial brain-computer interface implant

China has completed the world’s first commercial surgery using an invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) device approved in March, marking a leap in the country’s neurotechnology push to rival Elon Musk’s Neuralink. Chinese surgeons implanted a coin-sized brain chip on a patient with impaired hand mobility linked to a spinal cord injury from a car accident 10 years ago, according to a statement from the Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality on Wednesday.

Compete Then Collaborate: Frontier AI Teachers Build a Verifiable Curriculum to Improve a Coding Student Beyond Imitation

Large language models increasingly serve as teachers generating training data for smaller students. Prior multi-teacher knowledge distillation methods merge outputs without determining which frontier model teaches best, often relying on an LLM judge biased toward its own outputs. We introduce a compete-then-collaborate framework where four frontier AI teachers (Claude, Codex-GPT, Grok, Gemini) are ranked head-to-head by an execution-based judge (unit tests and stdin-stdout checks) with fairness

Will Enterprises Ever Choose SpaceX’s Grok And Cursor?

SpaceX is a rocket company. It also became an AI company the day its founder Elon Musk folded in xAI, inheriting a frontier model in Grok, the planet-scale Colossus training cluster, and the live data feed of the X platform (formerly Twitter).

“ The lowest-cost place to put AI will be in space, and that will be true within two years, maybe three at the latest,” SpaceX founder Elon Musk told the World Economic Forum in Davos this past January, as his company was preparing to go public . Later that month, SpaceX filed an application with the Federal Communications Commission for an orbital data center constellation of up to 1 million satellites in low Earth orbit, 500 to 2,000 kilometers above Earth.

Can AI Make Conflicts Worse? An Alignment Failure in LLM Deployment Across Conflict Contexts

AI models are already deployed in societies affected by armed conflict, and journalists, humanitarian workers, governments and ordinary citizens rely on them for information or for their work processes. No established practice exists for checking whether their outputs can make those conflicts worse. We tested nine model configurations from four providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, xAI) on 90 multi-turn scenarios designed to surface misaligned behaviour in conflict contexts: false equivalence

Hallucinating with AI: Distributed Delusions and “AI Psychosis”

Abstract There is much discussion of the false outputs that generative AI systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and Grok create. In popular terminology, these have been dubbed “AI hallucinations”. However, deeming these AI outputs “hallucinations” is controversial, with many claiming this is a metaphorical misnomer. Nevertheless, in this paper, I argue that when viewed through the lens of distributed cognition theory, we can better see the dynamic ways in which inaccurate beliefs, d

Post-hoc vs ante-hoc explanations: xAI design guidelines for data scientists

The growing field of explainable Artificial Intelligence (xAI) has given rise to a multitude of techniques and methodologies, yet this expansion has created a growing gap between existing xAI approaches and their practical application. This poses a considerable obstacle for data scientists striving to identify the optimal xAI technique for their needs. To address this problem, our study presents a customized decision support framework to aid data scientists in choosing a suitable xAI approach fo

Measuring the Quality of Explanations: The System Causability Scale (SCS)

Abstract Recent success in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) allow problem solving automatically without any human intervention. Autonomous approaches can be very convenient. However, in certain domains, e.g., in the medical domain, it is necessary to enable a domain expert to understand, why an algorithm came up with a certain result. Consequently, the field of Explainable AI (xAI) rapidly gained interest worldwide in various domains, particularly in medicine. Explainable A
