.@aconchillo has been hacking on an experimental macOS voice assistant. Audio transcription and wake word monitoring run locally. LLM and screen vision use cloud models by default, but of course you can swap in a local model/endpoint. "Peekaboo, tell me when the build finishes." "Peekaboo, somebody invited me to a meetup about inference optimization tonight, but I can't find the message. Was that in Slack, email, WhatsApp, or iMessage?" "Peekaboo, did we do the evals last week for the new Nemotron model on boule, pancake, flatbread, or the dgx spark? I think we forgot to push to the repo."

Avionics is where hardware, software, and flight dynamics converge 🚀 Meet Ikem, part of the team building the flight computers and electronics stack that powers RFA ONE. From guidance and navigation to high-rate telemetry and vehicle health monitoring, avionics turns sensor data into split-second decisions and actions during flight. If RFA ONE ignites, lifts off, steers, stages, and talks to the ground stations, Team Avionics is behind it. Learn more about their work in our new video ⬇️

Save the date: AgCon is back. Agriculture is the backbone of America’s economy and has been at the heart of the @CFTC’s mission from our very beginning. Alongside @KState on October 22-23, 2026, in Overland Park, Kansas, AgCon will bring together agribusinesses from across the country. We’re there to listen and learn so we can keep our markets working for our hardworking farmers, ranchers, and producers.

I'm giving a keynote at @AIconference on October 1 in SF about why we need User-Owned AI. It's clear that privacy is becoming an imperative for AI usage by businesses and individuals alike. I'll share how the @near_ai stack protects your data & IP.

Today, at our Ancona shipyard, we celebrated the launch of “Viking Libra”, the world’s first hydrogen-powered cruise ship, under construction for Viking. The ceremony was attended Gilberto Tobaldi, the Shipyard Director, and members of the Viking team. The unit will be powered by hydrogen and will have a propulsion system based partially on liquefied hydrogen and fuel cells. “Viking Libra” will be delivered at the end of 2026 by our Ancona shipyard, a site playing a strategic role in our Operations Excellence program, involving the introduction of advanced technologies, robotics and AI. With a gross tonnage of approximately 54,300 tons, a length of 239 meters, and the capacity to accommodate up to 998 passengers in 499 staterooms, “Viking Libra” has been developed with strong attention to environmental aspects. The ship will be capable of navigating and operating with zero emissions, allowing it to access even the most environmentally sensitive areas. We thus continue our close collaboration with Viking, with a total portfolio that today reaches 26 units, considering the ships already ordered, the contracts signed and the options agreed in recent months, whose effectiveness remains subject to the usual financing conditions required by the market. @VikingCruises
