Marine robotics, underwater drones, AI, and useful productivity signals.

🌊 WE’RE HIRING | PELVYN ROBOTICS From the lab to the ocean. We’re building our Ocean Pilot Operations Team to take autonomous underwater robotics into real-world marine environments. Pelvyn Robotics develops autonomous underwater systems for

The signal here is continued momentum around operational autonomy at sea: perception, endurance, reliability, and the boring-but-critical integration work that turns prototypes into field tools.

José angle: this is close to OceanScan territory — autonomy, mission robustness, operator tooling, data products, and how underwater systems become dependable enough for real work.

HERmesa is proud to back Oshen 🌊 We're delighted to share that HERmesa has invested in Oshen — the Plymouth-based ocean intelligence company building swarms of autonomous, one-metre robots that sail themselves across the world's oceans, hold stat

The relevant angle is not the hype cycle; it is how AI is being embedded into systems that need to make decisions under constraints, uncertainty, and limited communications.

ChatGPT Plugins Boost SMB Productivity with 16 Tools

Useful from a software-engineering perspective because the best productivity tools are starting to compress routine work without removing the need for judgment.

José angle: worth scanning for ideas that reduce engineering friction without creating opaque workflows or fragile dependencies.

U.S. military’s Anduril Dive-LD drone was ‘dead in the water’ before Iran nabbed it

A potentially useful development for tracking technology shifts around robotics, AI, and autonomy.

José angle: keep this as a signal, not a conclusion — useful if it connects to robotics, ocean operations, or better engineering workflows.

Unitree’s UnifoLM-X2-1.0 reads the opponent, predicts the next move and reacts instantly. For the first time a world model controls a fully autonomous humanoid fight in real time.

The relevant angle is not the hype cycle; it is how AI is being embedded into systems that need to make decisions under constraints, uncertainty, and limited communications.

José angle: look past the buzzwords and ask what would actually improve planning, supervision, fault handling, or post-mission analysis in field robotics.
