1.🗣️ Meta Wants to Own the Future of Voice AI

Meta isn’t just building AI—it’s stacking the deck.

They just acquired Play AI to supercharge their voice tech, bringing hyper-realistic voices to everything from wearables to digital assistants. Add that to recent hires from OpenAI and Scale AI, and it’s clear: Meta’s assembling an elite AI squad.

This isn’t just a talent grab. It’s a full-court press to make Meta’s AI smarter, smoother—and maybe your next go-to assistant.

2.🐝 Beewise Is Using Robots to Save the Bees

Beewise just raised $50 million to scale up BeeHome—an AI-powered, solar-run robotic hive that’s already protecting pollinators across 300,000 acres.

These smart hives monitor bee health 24/7, fend off deadly mites without chemicals, and help farmers boost crop yields with precision pollination.

This isn’t a prototype. It’s live, buzzing, and ready to save the bees—one robot at a time.

3.🤖 Coco’s Delivery Bots Are Taking Over the Sidewalks

Coco Robotics just locked in $80 million to ramp up its fleet of sidewalk delivery bots—already zipping around LA, Chicago, Miami, and even Helsinki.

They’ve made over 500,000 zero-emission deliveries so far, with a human on standby via Zoom if things get tricky. Backed by DoorDash and Uber, these bots are rolling into the mainstream.

Some call it the future of food delivery. Others are still wondering: do you tip a robot?
