Meta is considering major layoffs that could affect 20% or more of the company’s workforce, according to Reuters.

I get it; it’s not an easy time for a legacy automaker to be selling electric vehicles, what with incentives being gutted and Chinese automakers knocking at the door. But Honda is taking it to another level. This week, Honda killed its paltry — and frankly unpromising — EV programs. What little motivation Honda had to compete in the EV arena is apparently gone, and along with it, any chance of surviving the current wave of disruption that’s sweeping the industry.

MolmoSpaces is a large simulation environment for embodied AI research, built from more than 230,000 indoor scenes, over 130,000 object models, and over 42 million robotic grasp annotations.

She went on to kill her mother, her 11-year-old brother, five students, and an education assistant, before turning the gun on herself.   Before Jonathan Gavalas, 36, died by suicide last October, he got…
