Apparently drone warfare is here to stay.
AI Drone Software Stock Jumps 520% in Best IPO Since Newsmax
Swarmer Inc. shares skyrocketed as much as 700% on Tuesday, making the artificial intelligence drone software company’s debut the best trading by a US stock since Newsmax Inc.’s blockbuster entry nearly a year ago.
… Swarmer is a software company, and not a drone manufacturer. Drones powered by the company’s artificial intelligence technology enables them to deploy and coordinate drone swarms, like a bird flock, at scale. Its platform has been deployed in Ukraine with more than 100,000 real-world missions in active combat environment, since April 2024, according to it regulatory filing.
Swarmer’s opening-day rally comes as investors are weighing their bets on defense spending, as the industry is seeing an emergence of software-driven, autonomous, unmanned systems, reflecting a broader move in modern warfare toward low-cost weapons.

A new app alerts you if someone nearby is wearing smart glasses
One of the chief problems with “luxury surveillance” devices, like smart glasses with baked-in video recording cameras, is that they often look indistinguishable from regular eyewear, meaning you might be recorded without knowing it.
But now there is an app that can detect and alert you when someone nearby is wearing smart glasses, or potentially other always-recording tech.
The Android app, aptly named Nearby Glasses, constantly scans for nearby signals that emit from Bluetooth-enabled tech, such as wearable devices made by Meta (and Oakley) and Snap.
