Tiago Sada explains why AI is breaking online trust, how World ID tries to prove unique humanhood without exposing identity, and why the privacy objections are the whole story.

Scott Hanselman’s Microsoft Build demo showed a better way to code with AI: start weird, stay grounded, review everything, and turn useful AI work into reusable tools.

Hermes Agent is an open-source personal agent that remembers your work, builds reusable skills, runs scheduled automations, and can live across messaging apps, servers, and sandboxed execution environments.

OpenAI turned Codex into a broader knowledge-work platform; the White House signed a frontier-model cyber order; Microsoft showed agent-first Windows security; Anthropic expanded Project Glasswing; Axiom Math found gaps in economic theory.

Anthropic’s new dynamic workflows let Claude Code spin up specialist agents, assign them focused jobs, verify their work, and manage messy tasks without relying on one long, fragile chat.

Microsoft used Build 2026 to show how agents move from chat windows into PCs, Windows, GitHub, Azure, enterprise data, and new hardware. In other words: Microsoft is giving agents a whole computer to live in.

NVIDIA and Microsoft’s RTX Spark points to a future where everyday agents run locally, cloud models handle premium intelligence, and workers use agents to sell their own services.

NVIDIA turned the PC into an agent computer; Anthropic filed confidentially for an IPO; MiniMax released M3; Bernie Sanders proposed public ownership of AI labs; Mythos sparked a cybersecurity cost debate; plus much more.
