Hello,
Yesterday's special edition newsletter contained a sampling of this year's April 1 articles. Some wacky fun stuff if you missed yesterday's email.
One article, in particular, was the one I wrote on robotics and AI integration that's worthy of note here—the first 2/3 of that article is actually serious content and analysis and contains some pretty good citations, quotes, and has links that are both interesting and useful. For example, did you know that Anduril Industries has a similar annual budget to Lockheed Martin?
Worth a read if you skipped the April 1st series because you're too busy to set aside some time for fun and silly. I've linked it again in today's newletter for your convenience.
James brings us a couple of articles on high current probes for oscilloscopes (suitable for EV and other automotive high current applications) from his visit to APEC last week.
The big news of the week is Anthropic's Claude AI code being accidentally leaked. Despite takedown requests, the genie got out of the bottle and its source code being in the wild is now a major threat to the world in that its guiderails can be removed by unethical actors for an AI that is at the center of the US Department of Defence's prosecution of war.
Ugh!
