Google will now let any AI agent run your smart home

Google's Home MCP integration lets third-party AI agents like Claude control smart home devices and analyze home data.

Google launched Home MCP, a Model Context Protocol integration allowing third-party AI agents such as Claude, Google Antigravity, Hermes, and Open Claw to control devices and analyze event history across Google Home ecosystems. Capabilities include cross-camera analysis, device-state reasoning, voice messaging via Nest speakers, and custom dashboards, with rate limits and blocks on actions like unlocking doors. Availability starts with Google Home Premium Advanced users in the US ($20/month or $200/year) and requires setting up a Google Cloud project.

Accel reportedly in talks to lead $1B round for Thinking Machines at $40B valuation

Thinking Machines, Mira Murati's AI lab, is in talks to raise $1 billion at a $40 billion valuation, with Accel reportedly leading.

Thinking Machines, the AI lab founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, is negotiating a $1 billion round at a valuation of at least $40 billion, below the $50 billion it reportedly sought last year. The company's annual revenue run rate exceeds $100 million, mostly from usage-based compute fees for its open-weight Inkling model adapted on the Tinker platform. Its prior $2 billion seed round, led by Andreessen Horowitz with Nvidia, GV, Lightspeed, and Conviction Partners, valued it at $12 billion. Several co-founders, including Lilian Weng and Luke Metz, have since returned to OpenAI.
