If you’ve been thinking about investing in Philips Hue, now is one of the best opportunities we’ve seen all year to do so for less.

Update, June 26th: Updated prices and availability and added a couple of deals, including a discount for the Philips Hue Bridge.

– OPINION: China is building an AI war machine. Washington must wake up before it’s too late

CONES IGNORED: Waymo has filed a voluntary recall affecting 3,871 vehicles equipped with its 5th Generation Automated Driving System. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the software may allow a Waymo vehicle to enter a closed freeway construction zone and continue driving.

OPINION: On June 24, OpenAI unveiled its first custom-built inference chip, developed with Broadcom and known internally as “Jalapeño.” Most Americans will never see it. Yet Beijing certainly noticed. The announcement signals that the contest between America and China has moved beyond software and chatbots into a struggle for control of the infrastructure that will shape economic, military and technological power in the 21st century.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: Reading. Writing. And AI algorithms. The Senate is now wrestling with how students — and teachers — might use artificial intelligence in the classroom. It’s inevitable. “The question is not whether AI is going to impact education. The real question is whether we will shape its use thoughtfully. Responsibly,” said Delaware Secretary of Education Cindy Marten during a recent Senate hearing.

Of course Meta thinks gambling is the future

Of course Meta thinks gambling is the future

Meta is, by and large, a company built on other companies’ ideas. It has almost perfected the strategy: wait for a new platform or social mechanic to take off, then either buy or clone it, put it next to Meta’s unmatched user base and advertising engine, and watch the money pile up. Well, the next big thing appears to be turning everything into gambling. So why wouldn’t Meta make a Polymarket?

On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay discuss the reported prediction market app being built inside Meta, plus the company’s onslaught of other news this week — and its massive, apparently increasing morale problems. Nilay’s at Cannes Lions in France this week, where Meta’s advertising prowess is on full display, and yet it also feels like Meta is in crisis. So which is it? And what is your Facebook feed about to become?
