Anthropic's AI Beat Human Researchers, but Only on Problems a Computer Can Score

Automated agents beat experienced human proposals within six hours, at four dollars an hour against a hundred and fifty. The paper states the boundary itself: the method needs a problem that can be scored automatically.

Nvidia Claims 30x More Work Per Megawatt, Against Its Own Last Generation

Vera Rubin is in full production and the efficiency numbers are vendor claims measured against Nvidia's own previous rack. Where grids rather than budgets are the constraint, per-megawatt is the number that decides what gets built.

A Startup Worth $1.05bn Wants Data Centres to Turn Themselves Down

Emerald AI raised US$150m to slow, pause or move compute when a utility needs demand cut, backed by Nvidia and GE Vernova. The 100GW it says this could unlock is the company's own model, not observed capacity.

Your AI Coding Agent Charges You for Coffee Breaks

A long session is cheap. An interrupted one is not. Every AI coding agent re-reads your whole conversation at a tenth of the input price — until the cache expires, when the same tokens cost 12.5 times more.

Australia Agreed to Write Data Centre Rules, Not to Mandate Renewables
