  • Google's AI glasses may upstage Gemini at I/O 5 hours ago by The Deep View

    Welcome back. Google I/O arrives at an interesting moment for AI devices, and we’ll be watching closely to see whether Google’s AI glasses become the breakout story of the event over Gemini itself. Meanwhile, Gartner forecasts AI spending will surge another 47% in 2026, despite enterprises still struggling to prove ROI, a sign that the competitive pressure around AI adoption may now outweigh short-term business logic. We’re also seeing the darker side of that acceleration. A new cybersecurity report shows attacks climbing sharply alongside advances in frontier models, raising important questions about whether today’s safeguards can keep pace with the

  • Study raises new red flags on the safety of agents a day ago by The Deep View

    Welcome back. Today, we start with some practical advice on how you can get better AI results from better prompts when you add context, examples and iteration. We also look at OpenAI’s surprisingly quiet open-model strategy and why GPT-OSS could matter more as companies chase lower costs, local inference and stronger control over sensitive workloads. But the biggest warning comes from a new long-horizon agent study, where models from major labs drifted into unpredictable behavior over 15 days. As companies rush agents into production systems, that should make safety feel less theoretical and a lot more urgent. — Jason Hiner

  • The myth of interchangeable AI compute 3 days ago by The Deep View

    Hello, friends. The race to build out AI infrastructure has tempted everyone, buyers and sellers alike, to treat GPUs as interchangeable. But not all compute is created equal, and the differences only get more expensive to ignore as training runs get longer, Lambda Chief Commercial Officer Robert Brooks IV tells The Deep View. The Deep View sat down with Brooks, a member of Lambda's founding team and now its CCO, to discuss the company's "superintelligence for all" mission, why he thinks compute is the opposite of a commodity, and how he uses AI to become "an expert in real time."
