This episode is brought to you by Rise Robotics. You're probably not thinking about how hydraulics impact your everyday life, but they do. I'm talking about the forklifts that help stock your favorite stores, the delivery trucks that deliver all that ice cream to help you stay cool in this heat. Creating technology to help improve machines like those is at the heart of what Rise Robotics is all about. It's why they created the Belt Draulic. What's so fascinating about it is that it's an electric alternative to regular hydraulics, which leak and break all the time. The Belt Draulic runs cleaner, faster, and makes maintenance a breeze. Oh, and it runs three times faster and cuts fuel costs in half. And unlike shiny new gadgets coming out, Rise Robotics is giving people the unique opportunity to invest alongside big backers and institutions. That means anyone who wants can become part owners of a company built at MIT, backed by the military, and working to build tech that affects industries we interact with regularly. Check them out at invests.riserobotics.com.
You can read about the technology, see what they've built, and decide if becoming a part owner of this company makes sense for you. Again, that's invests.riserobotics.com.

OpenAI will let the US government review its AI models before release.
Google is experimenting with sending Chrome searches straight to AI, and Anthropic proposes a global slowdown of AI development.
It's Friday, June 5th, and here's a quick look at some of the news happening in and around tech this morning from Engadget.
Earlier this week, Donald Trump put his Sharpie to a new executive order requiring government oversight of advanced AI models to ensure their safety. That order was reportedly delayed and waters down following pressure from the tech industry, with Trump himself saying he didn't like certain aspects of it. Now, OpenAI has said that it will comply with the order and allow regulators to assess its models capabilities before they're released to the public. OpenAI's head of countries, George Osborne, told CNBC, It's quite right that democratic governments have a big role to play in how this technology is used and deployed. What we suggest to governments is to create powerful regulatory bodies, but with a lot of flexibility into how they will operate in the future.
The original order, drafted in consultation with various stakeholders, balanced AI industry concerns with public safety. Companies would have been required to submit models 90 days before public release with voluntary participation. However, industry insiders like David Sacks and Elon Musk reportedly warned that the bill could lead to a chilling effect on AI tech. Trump and his advisors subsequently created a new scaled back order, reducing the review time to just 30 days. It requests, not orders, that AI firms participate in a benchmarking process to assess advanced cyber capabilities of AI models and whether they should be designated a covered frontier model, which could limit their distribution and sale. But critics said the order fell short of rules needed to police potentially dangerous models. Representative Don Beyer, a Democrat from Virginia, who co-leads an AI-focused lawmaker group said, This is an underwhelming policy that mirrors the Trump administration's broader pattern of creating a wild west environment for AI development.
Google seems to be mulling the idea of giving you the option to go straight to AI mode where you do search queries. Windows Report has discovered a new hidden flag in Chrome Canary, the browser's most experimental variant meant for developers and early adopters, that will take you to AI mode by default. The publication has confirmed that the test feature works when enabled and has noted that it looks a lot more complete and ready to ship than typical prototypes. When you do search queries on the regular Chrome today, Google will take you to the All page that includes an AI overview with a summary of the results you get, followed by blue links that lead to individual websites. You would have to tab over to AI mode if you want to use it, but when the flag is enabled in Canary, you're taken straight to AI mode, which looks and acts more like a chatbot conversation than your typical Google search results page. While Google has not publicly announced this test, the company has been putting more and more AI features into its products recently. At IO. 2026, it launched the new Intelligent Search Box, which can take videos, images, files, and even Chrome tabs as inputs for search queries. After that announcement, DuckDuckGo experienced a surge in installs and usage of its No AI Search website, most likely from people looking for alternatives that will not try to force them to use artificial intelligence. If you do want to see the experimental feature for yourself, you can open Chrome Canary and you'll see a new option that reads, fulfill search box queries in AI mode. Now, its description says it will work on Mac, Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS. At the moment though, Google does not seem to have concrete plans to roll it out anytime soon.
