    Nvidia's board opens an inquiry into Jensen Huang after he admits an affair

    Yesterday I wrote about a US intelligence memo saying China recruited a woman to get close to Jensen Huang, Nvidia's chief executive. On Sunday Huang admitted in a staff memo that he had an affair with her, writing that "there is no excuse for what I did". Nvidia's independent directors have opened an inquiry with outside lawyers. In the same statement they voiced confidence in Huang and saw no reason to think secrets leaked, answering the question before anyone had looked. Congress wants a closed-door briefing next week. Several of today's stories are about companies grading their own homework, and this is the starkest: a board judging the founder its value depends on.

    Andrej Karpathy had AI build a calmer YouTube in a weekend

    Hacker News, the forum where programmers have argued about everything for 20 years, hides good video tips in its comments. Over the weekend Andrej Karpathy, an OpenAI co-founder who now works at Anthropic, had Claude dig through 43 million of those comments. The result, HackerTube, recommends a few thousand videos with no login or clickbait, and you can try it today. His own hands-on work, he says, was renting a server and buying a domain. Bear in mind he is showing off his employer's product, and few people code better than he does. One person did this in a weekend, so your next quote for an internal tool deserves a second look.

    Amazon is building a home robot again

    Hardly anyone remembers Astro, the home robot Amazon launched in 2021, which reached only a few thousand homes. Amazon is trying again. Job ads found by CNBC describe a "new-to-world robot product" from a new personal robotics group. The group is built around Fauna Robotics, a New York start-up Amazon bought in March that makes a child-sized humanoid called Sprout. No price or date has been given. Until Amazon shows a demo, I read this as a hiring plan, from a company that already put a speaker in millions of kitchens.

    Anthropic reportedly buys 3.4 billion dollars of gas generators for its data centres

    Gas generators are exactly what neighbours of a new data centre tend to protest about, and Anthropic, the maker of Claude, has reportedly bought a great many. According to the Financial Times, it took over generator orders another buyer had placed, worth about 3.4 billion dollars. Anthropic has not said a word, Reuters could not confirm the report, and nobody knows where the machines will stand. A company preparing its stock-market listing owes investors and future neighbours that answer. If the report holds, the labs no longer trust the power grid to keep up, and the towns that host them get the exhaust.

    Tencent's AI chief warns that AI will soon be able to help cause biological harm

    A safety warning from a Chinese lab that gives its models away is worth hearing. Yao Shunyu is Tencent's chief AI scientist and a former OpenAI researcher. On Saturday he told a Hong Kong science event that AI's biology skills will soon reach "a threshold where it's actually possible to do harm". He urged Chinese labs that publish free, downloadable models to take safety seriously. Tencent says Hy4, its new model, stays below the company's own danger line, and plans to release it freely within days. That verdict is from Tencent's own experts, much as Nvidia's board backed its chief before investigating. If they are wrong, nobody can recall a model once it is downloaded.
