STATE OF PRODUCT REVEALS WHAT AI STILL HASN'T SOLVED (SPONSOR) [4]
80% of product professionals say AI helps them ship faster, but
customers aren't seeing value any sooner. Atlassian's _State of
Product 2027_ [5] explores the gains AI is delivering and the
challenges that remain, from decision-making that hasn't kept pace to
gut instinct overriding customer evidence.

PASSES (2 MINUTE READ) [7]

satellite internet service. The company is recruiting 'hosts' to sell
passes to interested consumers. Pricing details have yet to be

earning from connections.
WHY MUSE MAY NEVER NEED ADS (13 MINUTE READ) [8]
Meta is one of the very few companies that can monetize a personal
agent through advertising without ever showing an ad inside the agent
itself. The company can keep ads out of the Muse app and still get
paid for it on Facebook and Instagram. Every Muse errand can be an
incremental signal. Meta can indirectly monetize Muse until enough
demand has been aggregated for it to start with direct monetization.

WITH PRIMA, NASA WILL TRY TO BUILD A BILLION-DOLLAR SPACE TELESCOPE
IN RECORD TIME (6 MINUTE READ) [10]
NASA's Probe Explorers are a new line of observatories intended to do

between the smaller Explorer missions and multibillion-dollar
flagships. NASA announced on Wednesday it was moving forward with the
first of the Explorers, PRIMA (Probe far-Infrared Mission for
Astrophysics). PRIMA will observe the universe in faint, far-infrared

ROR CREATOR SPARKS NEW "DEATH OF CODING BY HAND" DEBATE (15
MINUTE READ) [11]
David Heinemeier Hansson, the creator of Ruby on Rails, recently
announced that 37signals, a company known for its software craft, was
done with writing code by hand. The maturation of AI tools has made it
possible for the company to embrace a future where coding by hand is
almost entirely absent. AI creates new business models and revenue
streams and disrupts traditional software. Companies are now investing
in innovation and are willing to pay top-of-market for software
engineers who can help them build AI products or become AI-native.
PI DURABLE (33 MINUTE READ) [12]
Pi Durable is an experimental package built specifically for
long-running, durable, and malleable agents that can run anywhere. It
can run anywhere, can be reached from different surfaces, supports
infinitely long conversations, survives catastrophic internal and
external failures, and lets multiple humans steer the same agents. It
is a framework for building any agentic application, including coding
agents.

XBOX'S MILLENNIAL CEO ISN'T PLAYING AROUND (13 MINUTE READ) [14]
Asha Sharma, the 38-year-old chief executive of Microsoft's Xbox
division, wants Xbox properties to entertain a billion people. This
means opening untapped markets in Africa, Latin America, and South
Asia by using cloud computing technology to run games on computers and smartphones. Another pillar of her strategy is to reinvest in
Minecraft as a competitor to Roblox. Leaders at the company describe
the future of its consoles as embodying that idea.
THE DOT AND THE SWARM (11 MINUTE READ) [15]
AI is still too limited to substitute for large amounts of human
work. However, organizing agents is no longer the hard part. Agents
may be easier to integrate into firms than expected, as long as humans
are guiding them in the right direction. This could mean more work for
people, not less.
