Maven Robotics wants to steal your robot deployment deal

Warehouse robotics startup Maven Robotics emerges from stealth with $100 million to build 250 third-generation palletizing robots.

Maven Robotics, founded in 2024 by former Apple special projects engineer Hamza Derbas and his brother Khalid, emerged from stealth after raising $100 million from RoboStrategy, LocalGlobe, Vine Ventures, and XTX Markets Ventures. Its wheeled dual-arm robots, moving 10 mph and lifting up to 30 kg, perform mixed palletizing in distribution centers, with up to eight units reportedly running 16 hours a day at 99%+ uptime. The company plans to build 250 third-generation robots, start design on a fourth-generation platform, and expand toward material handling and fabrication, positioning itself against rivals like Agility, which is going public via a $2.4 billion SPAC deal.

The 2.5-hour AI-generated Odyssey movie is 2.5 hours too long

AI studio Fountain 0 released the 2.5-hour fully AI-generated film 'Odysseus: The Fall,' which reviewers panned for severe visual and audio consistency failures.

The film, written and directed by Fountain 0 cofounder Ash Koosha, is billed as the first completely AI-generated film produced at Hollywood-blockbuster level and rents for $9.99 via web browser only. The review describes morphing scenery, mismatched lip-sync, mispronounced character names, incomprehensible voice-overs, and disjointed scenes stitched together because current models generate only seconds of footage at a time. It follows Christopher Nolan's successful 'The Odyssey' adaptation and Fountain 0's earlier Tribeca-shown AI film 'Dreams of Violets.'

macOS 27 Golden Gate – Review

Ars Technica reviews macOS 27 Golden Gate, highlighting an unavoidable Apple Intelligence upgrade, new AFM 3 Core models, and dropped Intel Mac support.

macOS 27 Golden Gate delivers the first significant Apple Intelligence upgrade two years after launch, and the toggle to disable the AI features or delete downloaded models is gone. Apple Intelligence runs on a new AFM 3 Core model built in collaboration with Google, while the more capable AFM 3 Core Advanced requires an M3 chip and at least 12GB of RAM. The release drops all Intel Mac support, requiring Apple Silicon, with Sequoia security updates expected to end in fall 2027 and Tahoe's in 2028.

Microsoft says Copilot buttons still missing in classic Outlook

Microsoft is still investigating a bug that makes Copilot buttons disappear in classic Outlook for affected M365 Copilot users.

Microsoft confirmed the missing Copilot and Copilot Chat buttons occur after upgrading classic Outlook for Windows to build 20026.20182 and higher, because Outlook cannot locate the MAPI property PR_PROFILE_USER_SMTP_EMAIL_ADDRESS_W. The issue affects Copilot Chat (Basic) and paid M365 Copilot (Premium) customers, and Copilot remains reachable via OWA, new Outlook, and the standalone app. A temporary workaround enables 'Show Apps in Outlook' under Advanced settings, and Microsoft also acknowledged Outlook crashes tied to Kaspersky's Mail Checker (mcou.dll).

Exclusive: Paying for frontier AI models buys 4-month head start at 5x the cost

Mozilla report finds the capability gap between best open-weights (largely Chinese) and closed frontier AI models narrowed to 4.4 months at ~5x lower cost.

Mozilla's State of Open Source AI report (September 15) says the gap between closed frontier models and best open-weights models has closed to 4.4 months. Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 scores three points behind Anthropic's Fable 5 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index at 30% of the cost, and Z.ai's GLM 5.2 scored within a point of Claude Opus 4.7 on Terminal-Bench 2.1. Eight of the top 10 OpenRouter models by August 2026 token volume provide open weights, though a Linux Foundation paper found open models earned only 4% of revenue. The report recommends open models as the default for routine workloads, reserving closed models for 8-12 hour expert tasks.

Airrived adds Agentic Observability to track AI agent actions and risks

Airrived launches Agentic Observability to give enterprises end-to-end visibility into AI agent actions, permissions, data flows, and costs.

Airrived announced Agentic Observability, an expansion of its enterprise Agentic OS that traces the full agentic lifecycle from enterprise data ingestion through agent reasoning to business outcomes. The platform surfaces each agent's creator, owner, permissions, permitted actions, and human-in-the-loop approval requirements, and tracks movement of PII, PCI, and PHI across agentic workflows. It also adds token- and model-consumption tracking to turn AI spending into measurable AI FinOps.

Tell HN: OpenAI keeps re-enabling the 'allow training' setting

A Hacker News user reports OpenAI's 'allow training' setting re-enables itself after being disabled, raising concerns about opt-out data usage.

A Hacker News user reports resetting OpenAI's 'allow training' opt-out multiple times, with careful tracking, only to find the setting re-enabled on later checks. Commenters speculate about backend sync failures, optimistic UI updates and local storage behavior, or deliberate re-enabling to widen training data usage. Some users report the setting remained disabled, including one EU citizen.
