Even Realities' G2 smart glasses will keep an eye on your AI agent

Even Realities’ G2 smart glasses will keep an eye on your AI agent Smart glasses maker Even Realities has today unveiled Terminal Mode, enabling you to keep an eye on your AI coding agent even when you're not at your desk. Developers will be able to monitor what their AI agent is up to in real time, responding to its requests for assistance from the comfort of their own faces. Essentially, if you own a pair of its G2 smart glasses, you'll get a persistent icon telling you what the agent is...

ASUS's ExpertBook B5 Flip G2 is a 2.9 pound 360 touchscreen laptop The company also revealed the Zenbook 14 with three different processor options. Along with the upcoming ProArt P-series laptops that will run NVIDIA's new RTX Spark processor, ASUS has unveiled several other Windows laptops at Computex. Those include a new ExpertBook convertible model and Expertbook business laptop, along with three new Zenbook 14 models running Intel, AMD and Qualcomm Snapdragon processors.

Incoming CME could spark impressive northern lights over the northern US tonight

Incoming CME could spark impressive northern lights over the northern US tonight A coronal mass ejection is currently racing toward Earth and could trigger G2 to G3 geomagnetic storm conditions on June 8, potentially boosting aurora displays across northern latitudes. An incoming coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to slam into Earth's magnetic field today (June 8), potentially triggering geomagnetic storm conditions strong enough to supercharge auroras into mid-latitudes. The CME...

See Less, Specify More: Visual Evidence Budgets for Generalizable VLAs

Announce Type: new Abstract: Generalization remains a central bottleneck for vision-language-action (VLA) models: under distractors, appearance shifts, and semantically similar tasks, the policy must often infer local execution details from coarse instructions while also deciding which parts of the image matter for control. We present S2 (See Less, Specify More), a framework for improving VLA generalization by training the executor under a cleaner interface. Specify More preserves the...

Continuous Reasoning for Vision-Language-Action

Announce Type: replace Abstract: Natural language is a powerful reasoning medium for language and vision-language models, but it is mismatched to the granularity of continuous control. Text and explicit subgoals operate at task-level granularity, whereas vision-language-action (VLA) policies must choose actions at a much finer temporal scale; a single reasoning step can therefore span many action chunks while remaining only weakly coupled to the action needed now. This suggests a different...

A thalamus–brainstem attractor network drives history-biased decisions

Abstract Natural environments often change gradually, making it adaptive to bias decisions on the basis of the recent past — a phenomenon known as serial dependence1,2,3. Large-scale recordings during behaviour have identified that serial dependence is a common motif for decision-making, with neural representations of past experiences found throughout the brain4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. However, it remains unclear whether this bias arises from dedicated neural circuits with history-specific...

Aurora alert! 4 Earth-bound CMEs could spark northern lights as far south as Illinois and Oregon tonight

4 Earth-bound CMEs could spark northern lights as far south as Illinois and Oregon tonight Heads up aurora chasers! We could be in for a show! Multiple CMEs are en route and could spark strong geomagnetic storm conditions and auroras deep into mid latitudes.

AKIP1 is an inner scaffold component required for centriole integrity

Centrioles are microtubule-based organelles that play crucial roles in various biological processes, including cell division, ciliogenesis and flagellar assembly. These functions require the preservation of centriole structural integrity, yet the molecular mechanisms that maintain this integrity remain incompletely understood. In this study, through large-scale gene co-dependency analysis and ultrastructure expansion microscopy (U-ExM), we identified A-kinase interacting protein 1 (AKIP1) as...
