Using AI to help physicians diagnose rare genetic diseases affecting children
Even with genomic sequencing, many people with rare diseases never receive a clear genetic diagnosis. Roughly half remain undiagnosed after extensive testing and specialist review. Their medical data may contain clues but finding them can require sifting through thousands to millions of possible genetic variants, fragmented clinical records, and rapidly changing scientific literature. As new…

CoreWeave Jumped Again. Is the AI Cloud Stock Still Worth Buying After Its Wild Ride?
CoreWeave ( CRWV 1.70% ) has rarely traded quietly since its 2025 market debut, and the past week was no exception. Shares jumped about 10% on June 16 to around $117. As of this writing, that still leaves the artificial intelligence (AI) cloud provider about 37% below the high near $187 it set last June, though well above its 52-week low near $64. And the latest pop may owe as much to index…

Good News For SpaceX Investors. Wall Street CIO Says 'Building Data Centers On Land ... Might Be More Complicated Than Doing Them in Space'
Jordi Visser of 22V Research made a striking claim on a recent episode of The Pomp Podcast with Anthony Pompliano: “Building data centers on land might be at this point more complicated than doing them in space.” That line lands differently when you walk through his math, which reframes SpaceX ‘s (Nasdaq: SPCX) orbital data center ambitions as a logical response to terrestrial bottlenecks rather…

Low-skilled attacker used Claude, Codex to breach 14 companies
Researchers have long warned that AI agents could lower the skill floor for offensive cyber operations, and a recent report by OALABS (Open Analysis) researchers bears that out. After recovering and analyzing over 1,000 agent sessions from a compromised server on which an attacker deployed Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex agents, the researchers discovered how easily the attacker was…

Collecting robot training data is dirty, unglamorous work. Some AI labs are already paying XDOF to do it.
Two weeks ago, OpenAI said it would relaunch the robotics program it shuttered in 2021 — the latest signal that the biggest AI labs are racing to teach machines to operate in the physical world. But building capable robots requires something the AI industry doesn’t yet have, which is the training data to match that used for language models. That gap is creating a new kind of infrastructure…
