In partnership with

HUB Aerospace & Robotics Summer Camp 2026

In the next 5 years, AI is expected to reshape nearly every industry on the planet. The World Economic Forum projects 92 million jobs will be displaced by 2030 — while 170 million new ones will be created. The kids who win that shift won't be the ones who avoided technology. They'll be the ones who learned to build with it.

That's why this summer matters.

The HUB's 2026 Aerospace & Robotics Summer Camp gives students ages 12–18 hands-on experience with the skills that will actually be in demand — AI, robotics, drone simulation, space technology, and entrepreneurship. Not theory. Not screens. Real projects, real teamwork, real confidence.

No fee. No problem. We will give you a call to see if you’re the right fit.

Meta launches an AI assistant to help Facebook creators grow and post smarter.

Meta rolls out a new AI creator assistant on Facebook

Meta has announced the launch of a new AI-powered creator assistant on Facebook, designed to give creators personalized insights and recommendations based on their content style, audience, performance history, and goals.

Rather than digging through complex dashboards and analytics charts, creators can now simply ask the assistant direct questions. Want to know the best time to post? Just ask. Curious about what your audience is saying in the comments? The assistant has you covered. Because the tool is conversational, creators can also ask follow-up questions and explore topics in greater depth — for example, tracking how their audience has changed over time and what adjustments might help improve engagement.

The AI assistant also doubles as a creative brainstorming partner. It can suggest fresh content ideas by tapping into trending topics, popular audio, and cultural moments — helping creators stay relevant and post more consistently without having to spend hours researching trends on their own.

The assistant is currently rolling out to creators in the United States, Canada, and India, with Meta planning to expand its availability to more countries and add new features down the line.

The move is a clear strategic play by Meta to keep creators engaged on Facebook as the platform faces stiff competition from TikTok and YouTube. By offering built-in tools that rival — or replace — third-party services like ChatGPT, Meta is making it easier for creators to stay within its ecosystem rather than turning to outside platforms for help with content strategy and performance analysis.

In addition to the new creator assistant, Meta also announced expanded language support for its AI-powered video translation feature on Facebook. New languages now include Arabic, Bahasa Indonesian, French, Thai, and Vietnamese. The feature, which launched last year, automatically translates a creator's Reels into other languages while preserving their original tone and voice — helping them reach wider, more diverse global audiences.

Creators can also take advantage of a lip-sync option, which aligns the translated audio with their lip movements for a more natural, seamless viewing experience. The feature has clearly gained traction — Meta reports that more than 500 million users on Facebook now watch AI-translated videos every week.

Together, these updates reflect Meta's broader push to make Facebook a more attractive and competitive platform for content creators, combining smarter analytics tools with powerful language technology to help them grow their reach both locally and internationally.

Apple revealed its App Store facilitated over $1.4 trillion in developer billings and sales in 2025, up from $1.3 trillion the previous year. Notably, 90% of transactions involved no commission. The total included $1.1 trillion in physical goods and services and $149 billion in digital goods.

AI apps made a strong showing, with 40 of the top 100 apps featuring consumer-facing AI capabilities. Apple also reported 850 million average weekly users across 175 countries, with significant growth in the U.S., Europe, and China — teasing what could be major AI announcements at WWDC.

🎙️ The Supercharged Podcast Is Growing

Real Conversations with the People Building the AI Future

Supercharged Podcast

The Supercharged Podcast is quickly becoming a space for real, unfiltered conversations about AI — beyond the hype, tools, and surface-level takes.

Each episode dives deep with founders, operators, and builders who are actively working with AI — or building AI-first companies — to uncover how it’s truly changing the way work gets done.

From strategy and systems to real-world execution, these conversations are practical, honest, and focused on what actually works — not just what sounds good.

⚡ Trends for the Future

Is Silicon Valley ready to put robots in people's homes? Hello Robot is.

Hello Robot's Stretch is bringing practical, safe home robotics to real people today.

While most robotics startups chase humanoid dreams and bold promises, Hello Robot is quietly doing something far more grounded: deploying robots inside real homes, with real people. Based in Martinez, California, the company recently released Stretch 4, the fourth generation of its home assistance robot. It won't be mistaken for a humanoid, but that may be exactly the point.

Founded in 2017 by Aaron Edsinger and Charlie Kemp, Hello Robot built Stretch around safety and human collaboration rather than full autonomy. The robot features a telescoping arm, a sensor-rich head, and an omnidirectional wheeled base — designed to be practical, not impressive at a trade show. At $30,000, it ships in a cardboard box via UPS, keeping it accessible to researchers, developers, and disability advocates alike.

One of Hello Robot's most compelling use cases involves Keith Platt, a quadriplegic investor who now sits on the company's board. After becoming paralyzed in 2021, Platt began working with Stretch to regain independence. Tasks like drinking a protein shake — which once required another person's help — now take just a few minutes. "Being in control is a feature," said engineer Blaine Matulevich. For people like Platt, that independence is transformative, not just personally, but for the families and caregivers around them.

The broader robotics industry is increasingly recognizing that real-world deployment matters more than lab performance. Investors note that companies accumulating actual operating hours build advantages no competitor can simply purchase. Hello Robot's approach directly addresses this: Stretch is already out in homes, collecting the kind of messy, real-world data that AI models desperately need.

Researchers like UC Berkeley postdoc Mahi Shafiullah, who used Stretch in his PhD work, praise the company for prioritizing safety around people before chasing capability. Models developed using Stretch even won top honors at a major computer vision conference last year.

Hello Robot isn't trying to replace every humanoid competitor. Instead, it's betting that careful, incremental deployment — focused on people with real needs — will prove more durable than maximalist promises. With Stretch 4 already sold out, that bet looks increasingly sound.
