Nvidia is putting its Blackwell-powered RTX Spark chip into Windows laptops. RTX Spark pairs a 20-core Arm CPU with a 6,144-core Blackwell GPU on a single chip. First laptops arrive this fall from Dell, Lenovo, and Microsoft's Surface line. Nvidia claims one petaflop of AI compute, marking its return to PCs after a decade away.
We killed RAG and sandboxes. Here's what we built instead.
Our documentation assistant had a problem. RAG pipelines only sent the model page fragments, making responses feel half-baked. The fix was obvious: give the agent full doc access. Quality jumped, but startup hit 46 seconds and costs ballooned to $70K+/year.
The insight: the agent doesn't need a real filesystem. It just needs to think it's in one.
We built ChromaFs, a virtual filesystem that translates standard UNIX commands into queries against our Chroma database. Every doc page becomes a file, every section a directory. The agent explores documentation the way a developer explores a codebase.
The results: startup dropped from 46s to ~100ms, marginal compute cost hit $0 per conversation, and output quality matched the full sandbox, with access control built in.
ChromaFs now powers 30,000+ daily conversations for hundreds of thousands of users. No containers, no cold starts, no invoice surprises.
Mintlify powers docs for 20,000+ companies, reaching 100M+ people a year. We just raised a $45M Series B led by a16z and Salesforce Ventures to keep building the knowledge layer for the agent era.
German startup MicroAGI’s Shift app just opened a free home-cleaning service in New York City that records its cleaners through head-mounted cameras, trading chores for first-person data to both sell to AI labs and use in its own AI research. A vetted cleaner shows up wearing a camera that co-founder Bercan Kilic calls a "magic hat," filming the roughly two-hour job point-of-view style.
Apple upended the mid-tier traditional wristwatch market after it showed customers the appeal of buying a device that paired with their iPhones, tracked health metrics, and still told the time. The company now sees a similar opportunity with glasses. It plans to target the broader glasses category with products sold between roughly $200 and $500.
Japanese tech giant commits 75 billion euros to build 5 GW of data center capacity across France by 2031, marking its largest European AI infrastructure bet as the region battles high energy costs to compete with U.S. and China
CNN has filed a copyright and trademark lawsuit against Perplexity AI, alleging the AI search company unlawfully scraped and redistributed more than 17,000 of its news stories, photos, and videos. The network is now one of nine major publishers actively suing Perplexity over similar claims.
What built your business won’t scale it.
The habits, responsibilities, and daily involvement that once drove growth can quickly become the very things that slow it down.
The real shift is letting go of the work you’ve outgrown.
The free resource From Operator to Owner: How to Exit the Middle helps leaders identify what to delegate, what to retain, and how to move forward with clarity.
BELAY supports that transition by matching you with U.S.-based Executive Assistants who bring the judgment and reliability needed to take work off your plate, without adding full-time overhead.

How to edit videos using Google Flow
You can use Google Flow to edit videos with simple text prompts. You don’t need to be a pro video editor. Just describe what you want changed, and Flow can create a new version for you. Here is how:
Go to Google Flow and sign in with your Google account.
Start a new project or open a video you already made in Flow.
Upload your video or choose the video you want to edit.
Select the Omni model if it is available in your account.
Type Your Video Edit Task (Examples you can type):
“Remove the background and replace it with a modern office.”
“Change the lighting and make the video look brighter.”
Wait for Completion. Since the Omni model is working on video, it may take longer than a normal text task.
Google Flow will show the new video result. You can review it, change your prompt, create another version, or save the best one.
If you are unable to access it, try using a VPN.
