Greg Jensen, co–chief investment officer at Bridgewater Associates, thinks the top holders of AI compute warrant extra regulation, similar to what governs the world’s biggest financial institutions.

If a company controls more than, say, 5% of U.S. or global compute, it should be subject to heightened oversight, “like we do with systemically important banks,” Jensen said. In a wide-ranging interview, he also discussed Bridgewater’s growing use of AI in investing and where it still remains cautious, including leaving risk controls and trade execution to what he called “human-driven algorithms.”

CoreWeave said on Thursday that it could sell up to 35 million shares, worth roughly $3 billion based on the prior day’s closing price, through a new at-the-market offering program. At the same time, the company announced plans to raise $3 billion in a convertible note issue, with an option for ...

Remember when OpenAI landed in hot water earlier this month after mathematicians accused the company of trying to steal their thunder for solving an ultra-difficult math problem? (I know it feels like a million years ago given all the news cycles since then.)

Well, it turns out OpenAI is close to solving another math problem from the Millennium Prize Problems, a set of seven famous math challenges including that earlier “Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness problem,” according to a person with knowledge of the solution.

Employees expect the next problem, known as the Hodge Conjecture, to be solved relatively soon, the person said. The Hodge Conjecture asks whether certain geometric features of shapes defined by polynomial equations can always be described using simpler algebraic pieces. It could take the company longer to announce the solution, though, because it’s trying to figure out how to collaborate with the math community to make the announcement without triggering another PR nightmare, the person said. 

Money, technical savvy and disruptive ideas all matter within the technology industry. But the most seismic force is influence. Those who have it build, fund and steer the companies that alter the world—again and again. Those without it can only rise so far.

So who’s got that clout? You’ll find the answer by poring over our new list: the 50 Most Influential People in Tech. It isn’t just a snapshot of influence today. Coming up with such a list would be a relatively simple exercise. Rather, we’re providing a roster of the people we believe will have the most influence over the next decade, a more complex task that The Information is uniquely well positioned to pull off.

The Conservatives want to brand Burnham’s administration as a ‘traditional tax and spend socialist government’

In a news release issued ahead of his speech this morning, Andrew Griffith, the new shadow chancellor, gave details of some of the questions he wants the experts he has asked to review small business regulation to address. (See 8.58am.) He said:

[Craig Mackinlay and Robert Colvile] will produce a report taking evidence from small business and self-employed organisations. While they will have a wide remit, they will consider in particular these key questions, and report in December:

-Why have past attempts to reduce the regulatory and compliance burden on small business and the self-employed failed, and what specifically should be done to reduce the burden successfully?

This is staggering. Our socialist Chancellor has dished out a big Bank of England finance job to a socialist union boss who knows nothing about finance.

Clearly, trade union donations not only buy your way into government policymaking, but also onto the Bank of England’s board. This is cronyism in plain sight.

It's official: Amazon's October Prime Day event, Prime Big Deal Days, is returning this year on Oct. 6-7. If you're a Prime member who can't wait to shop the sale, the good news is you actually don't have to. The retailer already has some early deals live for members that are worth checking out, including a big price cut on the Dreame Matrix10 Ultra robot vacuum and mop.

As of Sept. 17, the Dreame Matrix10 Ultra has dropped from $1,799.99 to $1,399.99, saving you $400 in total and marking its lowest-ever price at the retailer. This is an exclusive Prime member price. If you're curious about becoming a member ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, check out our breakdown of how to sign up for more information.

The Dreame Matrix10 Ultra, released just last year, is a premium cleaner that offers both vacuuming and mopping capabilities. It's 30,000Pa Vormax suction, and the HyperStream detangling DuoBrush helps clear dust, hair, and debris from your surfaces, while its Multi-Mop Switching Dock can auto-select the right mop for each area of your home when scrubbing the floors. This helps prevent cross-contamination to get a deeper clean.

This robot vacuum can also avoid obstacles thanks to smart OmniSight tech and can even conquer steps up to 3.15 inches with its dual retractable legs. Mashable's Leah Stodart experienced the latter with a different model and wrote that its "use case felt quite limited," but it "could be helpful if your floors have any height changes, or if you need a robot vacuum to cross sliding door tracks."

If the Dreame Matrix10 Ultra sounds like the perfect fit to help keep your home clean this fall, don't miss out on this Prime exclusive deal at Amazon.

It's been two years since Rachael "Raygun" Gunn went viral at the 2024 Olympics for Breaking performance. Gunn described the reaction — which was a combination of jokes and hate at the time, online and off — as "pretty devastating", but in the Tonight Show interview above she describes the whole experience as "surreal".

Speaking to host Jimmy Fallon — who ran a skit about Raygun at the time — Gunn responds to various theories the internet had about her qualification and performance at the time, before speaking about her Netflix documentary Untold Raygun: Breaking Badly and sharing a spoon of Vegemite with a less than enthusiastic Fallon.
