Tesla started offering rides in its fully self driving Cybercab with no steering wheel to the public. 2. GPT-6 Astra 3. AI is starting to build matter at the atomic scale. 4. Anthropic uploaded a Lean 4 proof for Fermat's last Theorem (13 million lines of code, proves over 29,000 other theorems that the proof requires, across many areas of math). 5. For the first time, scientists have mapped the complete brain and central nervous system of an adult male fruit fly, a key model organism in science. 6. World Labs introduced Atlas, an AI model that can reconstruct moving 3D scenes from as few as three cameras.
