OpenAI is rewriting its Preparedness Framework while expanding
mo=

alignm=
ent work earlier in model training. It has resumed many smaller
or lower-=
risk workloads after a pause of little more than two weeks,
but the large=

significant Astra and =
cyber workloads remain paused. Astra is an
unreleased model that may reac=

OpenAI has not released the promised=
technical postmortem of the

California, Colorado, Kentucky, and New Jersey have accused Meta of=
harming children with technology designed to be addictive. The states
=
claim Meta fueled a national youth mental health crisis and deceived
user=
s by promoting its apps as safe. They have filed a lawsuit
charging the c=
ompany with violating federal child privacy laws and
state consumer prote=
ction laws. Meta plans to argue that it put in
safeguards to protect youn=

China's LandSpace recov=

e ZQ-3 is comparable to SpaceX's
current workhorse, the Falcon 9. It has =
a stainless steel rocket body
and liquid oxygen-methane engines, which co=
uld enable it to achieve
even lower launch costs than the Falcon 9. Its l=
anding-leg recovery
method allows the rocket to be quickly refurbished an=

engineers only need to maintain the rocket itself without=
having to

and stores =
code and metadata into packfiles, a simple binary
serialization format th=
at isn't ideal for managing at scale on a
server. These large binary file=
s must exist on a file system for Git
to access them. The three main appr=

OpenAI's revenue grew by 18% while its losses deepened from the fi=

China's LandSpace recovered the first-s= tage booster of its ZQ-3 rocket on its second attempt. The ZQ-3 is comparab=

GenBio has announced a world model of a=

widely used immortalized human cell lines in biomedical research. GenBio i=
s preparing to launch an early-access academic collaborator program for sci= entists across academia, biotech, and pharma. AIDO Cell and similar systems=
could eventually become powerful tools for basic biological research, allo= wing scientists to perturb genes, proteins, or pathways, follow the predict=
ed consequences across biological levels, generate hypotheses, and identify=
relationships that might take much longer to uncover in the lab.

<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
A distributed version control system me= ans that all instances of a repository are identical. There are many hard s= calability and reliability challenges that make this quite difficult. Git c= ompresses and stores code and metadata into packfiles, a simple binary seri= alization format that isn't ideal for managing at scale on a server. These = large binary files must exist on a file system for Git to access them. The = three main approaches to running repositories on many disks and many machin=
es are to distribute the filesystem, distribute the packfiles, or distribut=
e Git itself.
