Helix 2.5 just dropped from @Figure_robot
.
They rented 30 unseen Bay Area homes. No extra training.
No environment data.
The robot walked in and started tidying living rooms, folding towels and making beds with whole body autonomy.
One Index-pretrained model.
56% zero-shot success.
More than 6x better than training from scratch.
This is the leap from works in the lab house to works in a stranger’s house.

Gravity-1 Y3 just nailed another sea launch! @CNSpaceflight
reports Orienspace’s world’s largest operational solid-fueled rocket lifted off from a mobile platform in the East China Sea at 22:00 UTC Sept 15, deploying 9 sats (SpaceSail Group 26 + EUHT) into orbit. 4th straight success.

BRICS is becoming a bigger technology story.
Under India’s 2026 BRICS chairship, countries are focusing on AI, digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, next-gen communications and innovation.
India is also showcasing 37 deep-tech startups at the BRICS Bharat Innovates Exposition.
Could BRICS become a major force in the global AI & tech race?

Astra vs Fable 5.1 the actual split
@OpenAI
GPT-6 Astra and @AnthropicAI
Claude Fable 5.1 launched days apart at the same sticker:
$10 / $50 per million tokens, ~1M context.
There is no winner. There is a split.Astra tends to win:
• Hard math (FrontierMath Tier 4: 97.6% vs 87.8%)
• Computer use and desktop agents
• Terminal science / multi-step automation
• Token efficiency on many finished tasksFable 5.1 tends to win:
• Independent Intelligence Index (66 vs 61)
• Humanity’s Last Exam with tools
• Code quality, readability, and follow-through
• Cache-heavy long agents ($0.25/M cache reads vs Astra’s $1.00)
Same list price. Different bill.
Fable is cheaper when you reuse a big cached prefix.
Astra is often cheaper when it finishes in fewer tokens.
Pick Astra if the job is: operate software, grind math/science, ship an artifact through tools.
Pick Fable if the job is: write, research, patch a repo cleanly or run a long agent that keeps rereading the same context.
Don’t pick from a launch table. Run the same hard job on both.
