Microsoft Reshapes Copilot, SpaceX Softens 1M Satellite Plan, Meta’s Manus Desktop Agent Raises Security Concerns
Jim Love covers major tech moves: Microsoft reorganizes Copilot by merging consumer and commercial teams under Jacob Andreou to fix fragmented experiences, while Mustafa Suleman shifts focus toward building new AI models and “super intelligence” to reduce reliance on OpenAI. SpaceX tells the FCC its proposed satellite expansion will be phased rather than an immediate leap to a 1 million-satellite network, responding to concerns about congestion, interference, astronomy impacts, and light pollution. China’s Minimax highlights its proprietary M2.7 model, claiming it can automate 30–50% of reinforcement-learning research workflow while improving benchmark reasoning and reducing hallucinations. Meta launches a desktop app for its Manus AI agent with system-level access, prompting security worries despite guardrails, and the company reportedly shuts down Horizon Worlds after five years due to lack of traction.
