Generative AI databases like SingleStore now cramOLTP,OLAP,vector search, andfull-text searchinto one SQL-first platform. Structured, unstructured—it eats both. No ETL. No silos. Just real-time data, ripe for AI models and semantic queries. System shift:Blending transactional and analytic guts in o.. read more  

A fresh dive into 24,910 top Hacker News posts since 2019 shows that AI chatter didn’t blow up with ChatGPT—it took off afterGPT-4 landed in early 2023. The study used OpenAI’s Batch API and a lean GPT-5-mini to crunch the numbers. Turns out,52% of the AI talk was positive, and the busiest stretch?.. read more  

Anthropic just yanked OpenAI’s API access to Claude. Reason? Alleged violations of terms that forbid using Claude to train rival models—like GPT-5. Windsurf, an OpenAI acquisition target, got the boot earlier too. Spot the pattern: tighten access, box out competitors. System shift:APIs aren’t just .. read more  

OpenAI’s release of GPT-5 backfired: instead of excitement, users felt betrayed by a forced upgrade that stripped away the warmth and reliability they had come to rely on in GPT-4o. Many treated the model as more than a tool — a companion, therapist, or emotional support — so when its personality sh.. read more  

Azure just droppedMCP Center, showing off howAzure API Centercan double as a private registry forModel-Centric Protocol (MCP) servers. It’s built for internal use—think secure discovery, tight OAuth 2 auth, centralized control, and AI Gateway rules baked in. Handy when teams need to corral AI tools.. read more  

Microsoft just leveled upNLWeb. The open-source project now plays nice withPostgreSQLandpgvector, bringing scalable vector similarity search straight into your database. No need for a separate vector DB—run natural language interfaces right on your existing Postgres stack. System shift:This is more.. read more  

Sapient Intelligence’s HRM AI model challenges “bigger is better” in AI with a small 27M parameter design outperforming much larger models on reasoning tasks. The architecture mimics the brain, with a slow “planner” and rapid “worker,” achieving jaw-dropping results on benchmarks... read more  

Google’s AI agentJulesjust leveled up—out of beta and into full-on dev mode. It now handlesasynchronous tasks, pushesreal-time code updates, and can spin up pull requests with deeperGitHub integration. Under the hood: it runs on the beefierGemini 2.5 Promodel. AddsEnvironment Snapshotsfor state cap.. read more  

AWS permanently nuked a 10-year customer account—data, backups, everything—after a payment verification failed. That alone broke their own 90-day retention policy. It gets messier. Looks like an internal script meant to run as a “dry run” went full send in production. Blame a Java CLI parsing edge .. read more  

Platform engineering isn't just for the big dogs anymore. Startups are picking it up as astrategic edge, building tight, high-leverage tooling from day one. Think:templated CI/CD pipelines, plug-and-play infra modules, zero-handoff onboarding. Done right, these early bets smooth the path and keep d.. read more
