Happy Tuesday!
Todayâs stories run from mindâbending math feats to nutsâandâbolts infrastructure. GoogleâŻDeepMindâs newest Gemini smashed the International Mathematical Olympiad, Anthropic lays out an energy blueprint big enough to light NewâŻYorkâŻCity twice over, and OpenAIâs incoming Applications chief sketches a peopleâfirst AI agenda. We also cover a clickâandâcreate protein lab, a Spotify scandal over AI songs by dead artists, and the first gallâbladder surgery performed solo by a robot. Letâs dive in.

A special âDeepâŻThinkâ version of Gemini solved 5âŻofâŻ6 International Mathematical Olympiad problems in the allotted 4.5âŻhours, tallying 35âŻ/âŻ42 pointsâthe first AI system certified at a goldâmedal level. Unlike last yearâs AlphaGeometry effort, the model worked endâtoâend in plain English and used parallel reasoning to explore multiple proof paths at once. A limited test release is coming to Gemini Ultra subscribers later this year.
In a policy paper titled BuildâŻAIâŻinâŻAmerica, Anthropic warns that frontierâmodel training will need dataâcenter âpower plantsâ of 2â5âŻGW each within three years and projects total U.S. demand of 50âŻGW for training and inferenceâdouble NewâŻYorkâŻCityâs peak load. Recommendations include fastâtracking nuclear and geothermal permits, opening federal land for data centers, and creating strategic reserves of grid hardware.
Former Instacart chief FidjiâŻSimo is joining OpenAI to head its consumer and business products. In her essay, she frames AI as an equalizer across six pillarsâknowledge, health, creativity, economic freedom, time, and supportâand pledges to keep tools affordable and easy to use so benefits donât âconcentrate in the hands of the alreadyâpowerful.â
Six months after a $50âŻM seed round, LatentâŻLabs launched LatentX, a web app that lets researchers type or sketch desired properties and receive novel proteinsâincluding antibodies and nanobodiesâwith atomicâlevel structures. CEO SimonâŻKohl, formerly of AlphaFold, says benchmarked designs hit stateâofâtheâart scores and will eventually be monetized through premium features and model licensing.
Country legend BlazeâŻFoley, murdered inâŻ1989, suddenly âreleasedâ a new single on his official Spotify pageâgenerated by AI and uploaded via TikTokâs SoundOn without any approval from Foleyâs estate. Similar ghost releases turned up for GuyâŻClark. Spotify removed the songs after they were flagged, but critics say the incident exposes weak safeguards against deepâfake music fraud.
JohnsâŻHopkinsâ SRTâH robot, trained with languageâguided imitation learning, independently handled the trickiest phase of gallâbladder removal in eight pigâorgan trials, achieving 100âŻ% accuracyâthough more slowly than human surgeons. Researchers say such robots could one day ease surgeon shortages and enable 24/7 operating rooms, but human trials are still years away.
