Tesla’s futuristic Cybercab robotaxi project is making increasingly visible progress on public roads. As shared by Matt Barge and dennis hegstad on X, multiple prototype vehicles have been spotted navigating regular traffic in Austin, Texas. These sightings suggest that the electric vehicle maker is ramping up real-world testing as it prepares for broader validation ahead of a planned production kickoff in 2026. The Cybercab has long been teased as a purpose-built autonomous ride-hailing vehicle with a radical design that strips away steering wheels and pedals. To bring you up to speed, Tesla first unveiled the Cybercab concept in 2024 as…

Shark has been trying to make auto-empty docks happen since at least 2023, but I think 2026 might be the year they finally take off. If you’re in the dark about what exactly I mean by an ‘auto-empty dock’, it’s just what it sounds like: a base that houses a large dust bag or bin, into which the contents of the vacuum’s small onboard bin will automatically eject when it’s docked.Auto-empty docks are already commonplace in the robot vacuum market, where they feel like a natural fit – onboard bins are necessarily tiny, the bot needs to dock itself to…

This was supposed to be the year that climate tech died. President Donald Trump and the Republican Party have done their best to dismantle the Biden administration’s hallmark industrial and climate policies. Even the European Union has begun to ease off its most aggressive goals. And yet, as the year closes, the receipts provide a different view of climate and clean energy investing in the U.S. and Europe. Instead of tanking, venture bets in the sector remained essentially flat relative to 2024, according to CTVC, far from the slide some had expected. That resiliency is due in part to continued…

By now, everyone knows that Elon Musk is very much an optimist when it comes to making predictions. That’s the nice way to put it. To be blunt, Musk is a “bullshit artist.” He makes promises he can’t keep. For example, everyone now is likely very familiar with his infamous 2011 interview with the Wall Street Journal where he said he’d put a man on Mars in 10 years. That was 14 years ago now and we’re nowhere near putting anyone on Mars. Years ago, Musk also touted his proposed Hyperloop train system as a way to quickly transport people between…

The battle for the “perfect” hard-boiled egg has been wasting everyone’s time for decades. You’ve probably tried the cold-water start, which basically involves babysitting a pot like a helicopter parent until the first bubble appears, only to end up with rubbery yolks because you had the audacity to look away for 30 seconds. Then comes the joy of peeling them, which usually ends with half the egg whites stuck to the shell. No thanks.While everyone else is busy arguing over water temperatures, your air fryer has been sitting on the counter with the actual solution. It’s a master at “boiling” eggs using nothing but…

arXiv:2512.23078v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study how deep learning can improve valuation in the art market by incorporating the visual content of artworks into predictive models. Using a large repeated-sales dataset from major auction houses, we benchmark classical hedonic regressions and tree-based methods against modern deep architectures, including multi-modal models that fuse tabular and image data. We find that while artist identity and prior transaction history dominate overall predictive power, visual embeddings provide a distinct and economically meaningful contribution for fresh-to-market works where historical anchors are absent. Interpretability analyses using Grad-CAM and embedding visualizations show that models attend to…
