Race to develop \'world models\' targets robots, games and weather forecasting
AI scientists who see limits in large language model research are moving to develop \"world models\" that understand and respond to physical environments, AP reported on June 25. Such models aim to teach AI the statistical structure of space and time, including how light falls on surfaces and how objects respond to force. Researchers say language models cannot handle complex physical interactions, while others focus on building interactive game worlds.

European startups that once chose the U.S. now skip Silicon Valley
European tech startups are increasingly staying in Europe rather than moving to Silicon Valley, as AI adoption, improved access to capital and the ecosystem effects of success stories such as Spotify and Klarna reshape the market. Swedish startups cite customer wins and higher valuations, while investors and executives describe a broader structural shift. Late-stage funding remains a challenge, but AI is seen as helping firms scale faster with less capital. Talent flows and competing views on Silicon Valley persist.
