- An image of the Fomalhaut system was shared, prompting a comparison to a Ringworld-like structure and highlighting ongoing interest in megascale engineering concepts.  
- A late-day report claimed NVIDIA acknowledges Huawei has leapfrogged its China-market offerings with AI hardware “probably comparable to an H200,” signaling a potential shift in global AI compute dynamics.
