🚨 Portugal launches AMALIA, the first open-source model developed in European Portuguese. Interesting legal features:

- From an intellectual property perspective, the model was trained using publicly available and legally accessible data, framed within EU law applicable to scientific research.

- The model will be made available under the Apache 2.0 license, and there is a mechanism to report concerns, including intellectual property ones.

- Under the EU AI Act, AMALIA is classified as a General-Purpose AI model, without systemic risk.

- According to the official press release, it was developed following "high standards of security, transparency, and regulatory compliance."

- Portugal aims to strengthen the national AI ecosystem, providing an open model that can be used by everyone, including the public administration, to develop solutions in European Portuguese.

-

AMALIA is similar to Apertus, the Swiss AI model built around the idea of national AI development and prioritizing local languages, transparency, and legal compliance.

The new AI nationalism I've been writing about since last year is spreading, and it's great to see Portugal prioritizing its language and national development.

We'll likely see more countries following suit. I'll keep you posted.

For web developers on Mac, good news! Safari is adding an MCP server so your agent can easily test, preview, and debug web content with @webkit. For example, @claude can now see what it's building without needing Playwright or other tools. More here: https://t.co/xQ38tQ2kGO

Big news! I just secured xplor .sh 🔥

Officially renaming Xplorer Web Browser to Xplor.
Clean, four letters, perfect .sh domain.

Now I still need a better logo and brower icon.
Any designers want to collaborate? Drop your ideas or DM me! 👀

Still working on renaming a few items but mostly done.

@saeed_vz For me it’s the grill-me skill from @mattpocockuk . A one-liner that makes grooming with the AI so much more productive and fun. Usually it comes back with questions I’ve rarely thought about, and offers proposals that (most of the time) nailed it. I recommend it to everyone.

Während VW den Touareg bereits hat abtreten lassen, verlängert Audi die Karriere des Q7. Die dritte Generation fährt zunächst ausschließlich mit Dieselantrieb vor. Neu sind vor allem auf die Straße projizierte Blinkersignale. https://t.co/m2XTt2s8Mk

v14 Lite Release Notes:

– Distilled the intelligence from HW4 V14 into HW3. This allows HW3 to directly learn how to handle scenarios using HW4 V14 as a guide. This process unlocks the improvements that have been made to HW4 including Reinforcement Learning (RL) and offline models for HW3.

– Improved both proactive and reactive responsiveness across a wide variety of categories including navigation handling, merges and forks, pedestrian interactions, traffic lights, and vehicle cut-in scenarios.

– Improved general comfort in nominal scenarios through fewer false slowdowns, smoother steering and more consistent lane centering.

– Introduced parking, unparking, and reversing capabilities.

– Added Arrival Options for you to select where FSD should park: in a Parking Lot, on the Street, in a Driveway, or at the Curbside.

– Speed Profiles are now available at all times, to further customize driving style preference.

[Andreas Gerlach @appelgriebsch]

Funny how they talk about "automated driving as luxury item" back then, and based on a recent newspaper coverage their own car has a 750K price tag 🤦‍♂️

[Genma_Jp @nymbusjp]

I don't get it. I thought they had solved it. They claimed last year that “Bosch and VW announce breakthrough in automated driving.” It was reported in the most respectable German newspaper...🤡🤡

[Andreas Gerlach @appelgriebsch]

Let's just hope it doesn't take another large round of road tests like with the original FSD v14 audit.... 🙏

[Rustavi @Rustavi]

🚨 To every Tesla HW3 owner in Europe who’s been waiting years for FSD:
Tesla just started rolling out FSD v14 Lite to HW3 cars, bringing speed profiles, start self-driving from park, arrival options and much more to the hardware you’ve had for years.
We know the regulatory delays across Europe have been incredibly frustrating. But the features are now proven on HW3, and the performance gap with legacy automakers is only getting wider.
Your patience is about to be rewarded.
The best updates are still coming. 🇪🇺

There was a recent press coverage of test drives made with the system in Berlin: https://t.co/Zk4eLupUuw. TL;DR: car with all the sensors cost 750K, failed multiple times on 5km test track through Berlin, in one situation even stopped working completely in the middle of the road … 🤷‍♂️

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Grok 4.5, based on our 1.5T V9 foundation model, with Cursor data added in supplemental training, is now in private beta at SpaceX & Tesla. Early evals show performance close to, perhaps exceeding Opus.

RL is continuing to significantly improve the model, and the Grok Build harness gets better every day.

Nice work by all those involved!

Completely trained from scratch new models will be released by @SpaceX every month this year.
