PicoClaw ultra-lightweight personal AI Assistant run on just 10MB of RAM

PicoClaw is an ultra-lightweight personal AI Assistant designed to work on less than 10 MB RAM and suitable for resource-constrained embedded boards such as the Sipeed LicheeRV Nano SBC going for around $15 and powered by a SOPHGO SG2002 RISC-V SoC with 256MB on-chip DDR3. I keep reading news about the OpenClaw personal AI assistant, after first finding out about it when the Cubie A7S SBC was launched. OpenClaw (previously ClawdBot) clears your inbox, sends emails, manages your calendar, and checks you in for flights from WhatsApp, Telegram, or any chat app. It's been shown to run a range of hardware platforms, but it can be resource-intensive, and HKUDS created the nanobot ultra-lightweight personal AI assistant with about ~4,000 lines of Python code, or roughly 99% smaller than Clawdbot's 430k+ lines. PicoClaw further builds on the nanobot project, and has been "refactored from the ground up in Go through a

Linux 6.19 Release – Main changes, Arm, RISC-V, and MIPS architectures

Linux 6.19 Release – Main changes, Arm, RISC-V, and MIPS architectures

Linus Torvalds has just released Linux 6.19 on the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML): No big surprises anywhere last week, so 6.19 is out as expected - just as the US prepares to come to a complete standstill later today watching the latest batch of televised commercials. The betting man would expect them all to be AI-generated, but maybe some enterprising company decides to buck the trend? Doubtful, but there's always a slight chance. But for anybody outside the US, maybe taking the newest kernel out for a spin instead is an option? I have more than three dozen pull requests for when the merge window opens tomorrow - thank you to all the early maintainers. And as people have mostly figured out, I'm getting to the point where I'm being confused by large numbers (almost running out of fingers and toes again), so the next kernel is going to

Linux 6.18 release – Main changes, Arm, RISC-V, and MIPS architectures

Linux 6.18 release – Main changes, Arm, RISC-V, and MIPS architectures

Linus Torvalds has just announced the release of Linux 6.18 on the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML), which will likely become the next LTS kernel: So I'll have to admit that I'd have been happier with slightly less bugfixing noise in this last week of the release, but while there's a few more fixes than I would hope for, there was nothing that made me feel like this needs more time to cook. So 6.18 is tagged and pushed out. Most of the last-minute fixes are minor fixes to drivers, with some random noise elsewhere (bluetooth, ceph, afs..). Nothing strikes me as standing out, but hey, there's a shortlog appended if you want to see the details. And this obviously means that the merge window will open tomorrow, and I already have three dozen pull requests pending. Thanks. And as I already mentioned a couple of weeks ago in one

US bans Chinese chipmaker suspected of helping Huawei • The Register

Link📌 Summary:
中國芯片設計公司 Sophgo 被美國列入「實體名單」，因為該公司被懷疑向華為提供 AI 硅片。Sophgo 於 2024 年 10 月因其訂單的設備類似華為 Ascend 910B AI 加速器而聲名鵲起，隨後臺灣的 TSMC 停止為其生產晶片。雖然華為和 Sophgo 均否認有業務聯繫，但此事件顯示出美中科技競爭的緊張局勢。除了 Sophgo，還有其他不具名企業因參與中國先進製造技術的開發而被加入實體名單。此外，印度的三間機構則因美印科技合作關係而被移除限制。

🎯 Key Points:
- Sophgo 被列入美國「實體名單」，禁止與美國公司合作。
- TSMC 停止為 Sophgo 生產晶片，因其訂單與華為產品相似。
- 華為和 Sophgo 否認商業聯繫，可能因生產外包或假冒元件造成混亂。
- 美國對未來可能的中國軍事應用持有嚴格的出口控制。
- 三間印度機構由於美印合作被移除限制。
