Congrats to @ConveoAI (S24) on their $50M Series A!
Their AI interviewer holds in-depth video conversations with thousands of real consumers, so brands learn in days what used to take months.
Consumer research has always forced a choice: surveys reach lots of people but stay shallow, while focus groups go deep but are slow and expensive. Conveo removes that tradeoff, and more than 400 enterprises now use it, including 50+ Fortune 500 brands like Google, Unilever, and Canva.

Introducing Gemini 3.8 Flash, another jump in Gemini's agentic + coding capabilities, and our 3rd updated Flash model in only 6 weeks...
This model has been a ton of fun to work with, excited to see what you all think!
Super happy to share our intention to join forces with NVIDIA in a $12,930,300,000 acquisition 💛💚
10 years after starting Hugging Face, open-source AI is at an inflection point. Thanks to the community, we’ve shown that it can be a complement, and even an alternative, to closed-source APIs. But for it to happen at larger scale, it needs more compute, more support, more collaboration and more visibility. That’s why we went to talk to Jensen, who offered to do exactly that with us.
In addition to doubling down on NVIDIA’s massive contributions to open-source AI (I called them the “King of American open-source AI” earlier this year), they’ve committed to strongly supporting Hugging Face and our mission while keeping the platform open, independent and compute agnostic. The founders and the team are all staying to keep pushing this mission forward.
Together, we think we can make open source the default way to build AI, with the goal of empowering 100 million AI builders to own their intelligence rather than rent it.
Excited about the next 10 years! 🤗🤗🤗
Muse Spark 1.3 is rolling out today with frontier performance almost too cheap to meter. This is the biggest jump we've made so far on coding and agentic work. Try it in Muse Code and our API.
Next up 🍉 and Muse Spark open weights releases coming soon.
Today we’re introducing a new 3.8 Flash model, our 3rd Flash release in just 6 wks.
It delivers significant leaps from 3.7 Flash across software engineering, agentic tasks, and multi-step reasoning. On DeepSWE v1.1, it outperforms most larger frontier models in autonomously solving complex engineering problems end to end, at a fraction of the cost.

AI data labeling company @AfterQuery is now valued at $3.2 billion, sources say, 10xing its valuation since April. That would make it the fastest YC company to go from inception -> unicorn. Oh, and its founders are 22 and 23 years old. https://t.co/fjALTcrR1s

VIDEO | The Supreme Court passes order quashing all the FIRs against protesters during NEET protests.
Advocate Vrinda Grover informs, "The honourable Supreme Court of India has today passed a very significant order. As we know that from 20th to 25th July, there were very active protests in Delhi, at Jantar Mantar and in many parts of the country relating to reform in education. During the protests, police across states have launched cases, criminal cases against the protesters, against the youth. There is now an assurance that was given on 25th July by the Union government to the Cockroach Janta Party representatives that they will not pursue any of the criminal proceedings and they will give compensation. In so far as the innumerable FIRs launched across states, from Bihar to West Bengal, UP, Madhya Pradesh, Assam, Delhi, of course. All those FIRs today, by the order of the honourable Supreme Court, and with the applications were moved by the states. So the states and the Union government have said that they will not pursue, they are to be quashed and the court has passed an order quashing the FIRs, all the FIRs. The Supreme Court has invoked its extraordinary jurisdiction under Article 142 of the Constitution of India because the court says the right to protest, the freedom to protest and express yourself is a fundamental right and that cannot be taken away. What is also significant is that with regards to the compensation they have agreed that it will be formulated and paid in the next three months..."

The BJP set up a brand-new social media team because the crude language and cheap tactics of the old one clearly weren’t enough.
Now, they’ve graduated to openly threatening youth with violence.
The mask is finally slipping.
The ruling party of World’s largest democracy is threatening to kill the world’s largest youth population because they protested against them.
World needs to watch this. @UN, @UNinIndia take cognisance of this war cry for genocide
