Новинка весит 312 граммов. Это на 73 меньше, чем у главного конкурента. Наушники получили амбушюры из пены с эффектом памяти, которые держатся на магнитах. Для хранения используется тканевый футляр, в котором также есть чехол для кабелей. Управлять воспроизведением можно с помощью физической кнопки. Одно нажатие позволяет включить или остановить трек, двойное — перемотать его. Также есть более маленькая кнопка для переключения режимов шумоподавления и прозрачности. Громкость регулируется с помощью небольшого ползунка.

Модель получила восемь микрофонов для звонков и активного шумоподавления. Использовать наушники можно через Bluetooth 5.4 или кабель — в комплекте есть вариант с USB-C и 3,5 мм. Есть Wi-Fi, однако его можно использовать только для подключения к звуковой панели Sonos. Наушники поддерживают кодек aptX Adaptive для высокого качества. Пользователям также обещают «лучший в отрасли опыт Dolby Atmos» для пространственного звука. Например, если подключить наушники к одной из звуковых панелей Sonos, то при просмотре телевизора звук будет фиксироваться к пространству перед экраном. Аналогичная фишка есть у Apple.

Аккумулятора должно хватить на срок до 30 часов использования без подзарядки. На столько батареи хватит при умеренном уровне громкости и с шумоподавлением. Трех минут зарядки будет достаточно для трех часов воспроизведения. На полную зарядку требуется почти два часа. Sonos Ace стоят 449 долларов (40 500 рублей) в США и 499 евро (48 900 рублей) в Европе. Новинка доступна для предзаказа в белом и черном вариантах. Поставки начнутся 5 июня.

Ранее Redmi выпустила TWS-наушники с огромными драйверами. Стоят меньше 1300 рублей.

Trump's 43 Minutes: The Strongman Narrative Unravels, the Media War Escalates

President Donald Trump's first public appearance in over a week, intended to project control amidst health concerns and political challenges, devolved into a 43-minute display of grievance and insecurity. He focused initially on a reflecting pool renovation, compared his rally size to Martin Luther King Jr.'s, and repeatedly attacked political opponents, judges, and U.S. cities. He signed executive orders, including one weakening job protections for senior federal employees, potentially replacing expertise with loyalty. His speech meandered to topics like communism before ending abruptly. The article highlights Trump's agitated, defensive state and the systemic pressures enabling his power. It details his personal attack on a CNN reporter, framing it as part of a broader assault on independent media to undermine public trust in unfavorable facts. This pressure is exemplified by the reported erosion of editorial independence at CBS. The author argues that as mainstream media faces political and commercial pressures, supporting independent journalists becomes crucial for preserving truthful information. The piece concludes by noting a symbolic House vote challenging Trump's Iran actions, suggesting growing Republican dissent, and frames financial support for independent media as a direct form of resistance.

The Ambitions of Kalshi, MTS, and a16z

"Kalshi, MTS, and a16z's Ambition" explores prediction markets as a focal point for investors in 2025. The article traces their intellectual evolution from Hayek's ideas on distributed knowledge to Robin Hanson's logarithmic market scoring rule (LMSR), which incentivizes truth-telling. Venture firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) invested in prediction market platform Kalshi, valuing it at $220 billion. a16z argues these markets offer "presence"—a way for individuals to actively engage with and influence world events through financial bets, countering modern detachment. This transforms participants into "super observers" and grants the platform authority in defining event truth and importance. The piece positions prediction markets as a key component of a16z's envisioned "new media" empire. This strategy involves rapid, high-intensity content across platforms to "take over the timeline." Media company MTS exemplifies this with its constant news livestreams. Ultimately, Kalshi's value lies in its "reality distortion field"—the power to shape perception through the credibility of real-money markets, making it a potent tool within a16z's broader media and influence architecture.

Breaking: OpenAI Chip Veteran Joins Anthropic

Breaking News: OpenAI Chip Veteran Joins Anthropic Clive Chan, a key early member of OpenAI's in-house chip development team, has announced his departure from OpenAI to join rival AI company Anthropic. In his statement, Chan highlighted his experience as the second hire on OpenAI's hardware team, praising its exceptional talent density but expressing a desire to "climb a new mountain from the base." He cited Anthropic's talent, values, and ambitious pace as key reasons for his move. Chan also referenced OpenAI's disclosed partnership with Broadcom, aimed at deploying a 10GW AI accelerator system starting in the second half of 2026. His career includes roles at Tesla, Google, and SpaceX, focusing on AI infrastructure and hardware. This move continues a notable trend of talent flow from OpenAI to Anthropic, following other high-profile departures like researcher Andrej Karpathy. With Anthropic's recent $65 billion funding round valuing it near $1 trillion, the competition for top AI talent between these leading firms remains intense.

a16z's Globalization Shift: Venture Capital Is Becoming the 'Driving Force' for the U.S. Tech Alliance

a16z is making a significant shift in its globalization strategy, positioning itself not just as a global investor but as a key player in aligning technology with the national security and competitive interests of the United States and its allies. The firm’s recent initiatives, including opening a Tokyo office and appointing Anne Neuberger—a former U.S. government official with deep experience in defense and technology—as Global Affairs Lead, underscore this move. It highlights how venture capital’s role is expanding beyond funding and advice to helping startups navigate complex international regulations, geopolitics, and strategic partnerships in critical sectors like AI, cybersecurity, defense tech, and supply chain resilience. By rebranding its investor relations team as the Global Partnership Team and leveraging its extensive network to connect founders with global capital and key stakeholders, a16z aims to be a "behind-the-scenes force" for scaling companies internationally. The firm has already made over 100 international investments. Ultimately, a16z frames its mission as twofold: empowering founders to build great companies and, now, actively supporting the technological leadership and alliance networks of the U.S. and its allies in an era of heightened global competition.

Uncovering the Truth About Agent Commerce, Payments, and Infrastructure

Decoding Agent Commerce, Payments, and Infrastructure: The Reality Over the past year, I've been building infrastructure for the Agent economy, engaging with major players like Stripe, Visa, Coinbase, Google, and dozens of startups. A clear conclusion emerges: true, large-scale demand does not yet exist. Startups face structural challenges. Data points illustrate this gap. Stripe's Agent commerce platform has over 1,000 merchants but only single-digit transacting agents. Visa's Agent payment token requires 9-month KYC and a $250M revenue threshold, accessible only to giants like Amazon. On-chain analysis reveals actual daily Agent transaction volume is around $17k, half of which are test transactions. The article analyzes four potential markets: **1. Agent-to-Merchant (A2M):** Current AI shopping UX is often inferior to traditional e-commerce for visual, comparison-heavy purchases (clothing, electronics). Chat interfaces are a step back. Real merchant interest is defensive "Agent Engine Optimization," fearing future obsolescence, not current demand. Potential exists in high-frequency, low-decision purchases (e.g., food delivery) or simplifying terrible UX (complex checkouts, non-native shoppers), but these require massive consumer distribution channels dominated by giants like DoorDash and Amazon. **2. Agent-to-API (A2A):** Developers already have subscriptions and billing for core APIs (compute, data). The argument for micro-payments via crypto for sub-dollar API calls is addressed by pre-paid balances today. The deeper issue is supplier resistance; major SaaS firms rely on enterprise contracts, not fractional cent pricing. Opportunity lies in the long tail of niche services, but this is a smaller market catering to developers, a historically low-paying group. **3. Agent-to-Agent (A2A):** This remains a theoretical long-term vision with near-zero current transaction volume. It involves unique challenges: discovery, trust, negotiation, dispute resolution. When it materializes, it will require a fundamentally new settlement infrastructure for high-speed, variable-value, multi-party transactions. It's a real long-term bet, but not the current market. **4. Agent-to-Finance (A2F):** This is the only category with existing, paying demand. Integrating AI into financial workflows (trading, portfolio management) is a natural evolution and enables new capabilities like autonomous rebalancing. However, competition favors incumbents with regulatory licenses, compliance infrastructure, and existing client relationships. **The Real Issue:** Why is infrastructure still being built? Incumbents can afford long-term bets, and payment companies see every problem as a nail for their payment hammer. However, payment is just one piece. The core challenge is *coordination*—orchestrating work between Agents and humans, verifying outcomes, and settling results. Payment is part of settlement, which is part of coordination. Companies that solve the coordination problem will subsume payments, not the other way around. Startups lack the infinite runway of giants and must find today's real market, which, after a year of exploration, lies outside these four categories—in an area with real, growing, and underserved activity.
