CONFIRMED: Tesla unveiled a “flying” sports car, Roadster, demonstrating brief airborne maneuvers powered by compressed-gas thrusters. @elonmusk targets production in 2028. Public-road approval remains unresolved. Source: @Tesla

BREAKING: The U.S. has publicly confirmed for the first time that the Space Force possesses deployed weapons in orbit. Reports say the number, design, and operating method remain classified. 1/ Air Force Secretary Troy Meink said the systems can defend U.S. forces against hostile action. He declined to say whether they are kinetic or non-kinetic—or when they were launched and tested. 2/ U.S. Space Command called the disclosure a landmark deterrence step. The deployed systems should not be confused with Golden Dome’s still-developing space-based interceptors. 3/ Russia warned that orbital conflict could threaten civilian and economic services dependent on satellites. Moscow plans to introduce space weapons and transparency resolutions at the UN next month. Sources: U.S. Space Force⁠

AS REPORTED: SpaceX has added another enormous AI-compute customer—but has not said who is buying the capacity. 1/ CFO Bret Johnsen says @SpaceX closed a hosting agreement worth approximately $1.11B per month beginning December 1. That equals roughly $13.3B in annualized revenue. 2/ The customer, contract duration, computing capacity, hardware and locations were not disclosed. SpaceX also has agreements carrying monthly rates of $1.25B from @AnthropicAI and $920M from Google. 3/ Together, the three disclosed rates would equal approximately $39.4B annually if fully delivered for an entire year. SpaceX is targeting a $100B companywide annualized revenue run rate by year-end. 4/ The essential questions are whether SpaceX can deliver the promised capacity and how much additional capital it must invest. The company spent about $16B on AI infrastructure last quarter. Source: @SpaceX⁠

JUST IN: OpenAI plans to build its own humanoid robot. Sam Altman: “We will definitely do a humanoid. We will do other form factors as well.” OpenAI is taking frontier AI into the physical world. #OpenAI #Robotics #PhysicalAI

Federal regulators are probing Tesla’s Cybercab rollout over its lack of a steering wheel and pedals. The Cybercab is designed around a fundamental assumption: there may no longer need to be a human driver. That puts @Tesla directly against vehicle regulations largely written for human-operated machines. The bigger question extends beyond Tesla: When AI becomes the driver, which human controls are still necessary?

Crusoe has raised $3B at a $30B valuation as the AI infrastructure boom accelerates. Founded by Chase Lochmiller and Cully Cavness, Crusoe is building the data-center and compute infrastructure behind increasingly power-intensive AI workloads. The AI race is becoming a race for: → Power → Data centers → GPUs → Networking → Capital AI infrastructure is becoming an asset class of its own.

BREAKING: ChatGPT, Claude and Grok all experienced overlapping outages Thursday. The services have since recovered, and there’s currently no evidence of a shared cause. But the bigger story is enterprise dependence. As AI becomes embedded across coding, research, customer service and operations, AI uptime is becoming business-critical infrastructure. The AI race won’t only be about intelligence. Reliability will matter too. Follow The Algorithmic for the AI and infrastructure moves reshaping business. #AI #ChatGPT #Claude #Grok #TheAlgorithmic

GPT-6 Astra is here. OpenAI calls it a “generational leap in capability.” President Greg Brockman’s declaration was even bigger: “Welcome to the AGI era.” OpenAI-reported results: → ARC-AGI-3: 98.6% → ExploitBench: 100% → FrontierMath Tier 4 v2: 97.6% → DeepSWE v1.1: 74.1% Astra is also OpenAI’s first model to reach its Critical cybersecurity capability threshold. The question now isn’t simply whether Astra tops the benchmarks. It’s how quickly this level of capability translates into autonomous work across coding, cybersecurity, research and enterprise operations.

@drfeifei’s World Labs has unveiled Atlas—a new AI model designed to understand more than language and pixels. Atlas can generate, reconstruct, and simulate 3D worlds from only a few images, while maintaining spatial consistency across viewpoints. The bigger thesis: LLMs → multimodal AI → world models → physical AI @theworldlabs is betting that AI’s next frontier is spatial intelligence: models that understand geometry, environments, and how the physical world changes over time. That could become critical infrastructure for robotics and autonomous systems.
