You could cut the tension with a needle—7 SteamDB changes in the past week have Silksong hopefuls wondering if the final hour is upon us
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Silksong may, after many long years, finally be releasing—or it may not be. A shadowdrop could be arriving tomorrow, or our eternal vigil may never end. It's either the final 24 hours, or time has no meaning anymore. One thing's for certain: SteamDB has some updates. In addition to the updates released earlier this week, which included achievement data for multiple languages, Silksong has had support for Windows, Mac, and Linux added, visible via SteamDB. At the time of writing, Silksong's minimum requirements don't list Mac or Linux as possible platforms, however, Steam does provide support for them, and developers can prep their store pages to send out platform-specific packages. As always, the Silksong subreddit is being delightfully normal about the news. In one thread, you can even see the ever-cynical doubters (we're well past the point of tribalistic factions) starting to crack. "FUCK MY FLAIR SILKSONG TOMORROW," roars one frantic switcher. "I... CANT... DENY... IT... ANY... LONGER!" writes another, with the tone of the Incredible Hulk swelling out of his shirt. On one hand, it is mighty suspicious that the games' Steam page would receive such a ferocious flurry of updates—seven in total, including this one—before Summer Game Fest. With a bevvy of announcements to come, the idea that Team Cherry's doing some preparatory updating before finally releasing the dang thing isn't entirely out of the question. On the other hand, a few SteamDB updates aren't substantial proof of anything if you aren't scrabbling for every scrap of hope you can. Almost no game since Elden Ring has had this much feverish hype built up behind it and, in a way, the cultish chanting is outstripping what Silksong is likely bound to be: A very good metroidvania. Which, given I've played several since Hollow Knight, is only saying so much. If Team Cherry does do the funniest thing it can and shadowdrop Silksong in a manner of hours, it'll mark the end to all doubting and hoping, all coping and copium. No more daily Silksong news, no more crossed fingers, no more Silkposts. Bait used to be believable, but if it's the dawn of the final day, it shall be absent entirely. All I can say is, if this is indeed the end? Gentlebugs, it has been an honour. 2025 games: This year's upcoming releasesBest PC games: Our all-time favoritesFree PC games: Freebie festBest FPS games: Finest gunplayBest RPGs: Grand adventuresBest co-op games: Better together

Cathie Wood sells $22.8 million of hot stock near all-time highs
Cathie Wood sells $22.8 million of hot stock near all-time highs originally appeared on TheStreet. Cathie Wood has long been aggressive in hunting tech stocks that she believes will have a 'disruptive' impact on the future world. However, she sometimes sells a stock when it is high to secure gains. In the past week, the head of Ark Investment Management sold a popular AI stock that has surged nearly 70% year-to-date. 💵💰Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter 💰💵 Cathie Wood's investments have had a volatile ride this year, swinging from strong gains to sharp losses, and now back to outperforming the broader market. In January and February, the Ark funds rallied as investors bet on the Trump administration's potential deregulation that could benefit Wood's tech bets. But the funds stumbled in the following weeks, underperforming sharply as several of its top holdings —especially Tesla, its largest position — declined amid macroeconomic and trade policy uncertainties. Now, the fund is regaining momentum. As of June 6, the flagship Ark Innovation ETF () is up 6.11% year-to-date, outpacing the S&P 500's 2.02% gain. Wood gained a remarkable 153% in 2020, which helped build her reputation and attract loyal investors. Still, her long-term performance has made many others skeptical of her aggressive style. As of June 6, Ark Innovation ETF, with $5 billion under management, has delivered a five-year annualized return of negative 0.5%. In comparison, the S&P 500 has an annualized return of 15.18% over the same period. Wood's investment strategy is straightforward: Her Ark ETFs typically buy shares in emerging high-tech companies in fields such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, biomedical technology and robotics. Wood says these companies have the potential to reshape industries, but their volatility leads to major fluctuations in Ark funds' Ark Innovation ETF wiped out $7 billion in investor wealth over the 10 years ending in 2024, according to an analysis by Morningstar's analyst Amy Arnott. That made it the third-biggest wealth destroyer among mutual funds and ETFs in Arnott's ranking. Wood said the U.S. is coming out of a three-year 'rolling recession' and heading into a productivity-led recovery that could trigger a broader bull market. In a letter to investors published on April 30, she dismissed predictions of a recession dragging into 2026, as she expects "more clarity on tariffs, taxes, regulations, and interest rates over the next three to six months." "If the current tariff turmoil results in freer trade, as tariffs and non-tariff barriers come down in tandem with declines in other taxes, regulations, and interest rates, then real GDP growth and productivity should surprise on the high side of expectations at some point during the second half of this year," she wrote. She also struck an optimistic tone for tech stocks. "During the current turbulent transition in the US, we think consumers and businesses are likely to accelerate the shift to technologically enabled innovation platforms including artificial intelligence, robotics, energy storage, blockchain technology, and multiomics sequencing," she said. But not everyone shares Wood's bullish outlook. Her flagship Ark Innovation ETF has seen $2.23 billion in net outflows over the past year through June 5, including nearly $154 million in the last month alone, according to ETF research firm VettaFi. From June 2 to June 5, Wood's Ark funds sold 179,846 shares of Palantir Technologies () , which was valued at roughly $22.8 million. Palantir is known for providing AI-driven data analytics software to the U.S. government, military, and commercial clients worldwide, including JPMorgan Chase, Airbus, and Merck. The company reported stronger-than-expected first-quarter revenue in early May and raised its full-year outlook as demand for AI tools increased. 'We are delivering the operating system for the modern enterprise in the era of AI,' CEO Alex Karp said. While many tech stocks have struggled this year, Palantir has stood out. Its shares are up roughly 69% in 2025 and just hit a record close of $133.17 on June of the recent momentum comes from its government work. Back in May 2024, Palantir won a $480 million, five-year U.S. Army contract to build its Maven Smart System, which is a battlefield AI prototype. Last month, the Defense Department modified the contract, increasing the licensing ceiling from $480 million to $1.275 billion. Palantir's Foundry platform has been adopted by at least four federal agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Health and Human Services, according to a New York Times report published May 30. Fannie Mae also announced a partnership with Palantir in May to work on AI-based fraud detection. However, the New York Times article also raised concerns about the company's relationship with the Trump administration, alleging that the U.S. president could use Palantir's technology to target immigrants and political opponents. The article also claimed that some Palantir employees felt uncomfortable with the company's decision to work with the Trump administration and that it "risks becoming the face of Mr. Trump's political agenda." Palantir responded in a June 3 post on X, denying the accusations.

'Palantir never collects data to unlawfully surveil Americans.' Palantir remains a core position for Wood even after recent trims. The stock is now the 9th largest holding in the ARK Innovation ETF, accounting for 4.54%. Wood's latest trades in the past week include buying shares of Advanced Micro Devices () , () , Guardant Health () and Veracyte () .

Why We Need Global Prosocial AI Governance — Now
Abstract image of a person's profile symbolically composed of dials of different sizes. Concept man, ... More time, space The artificial intelligence revolution isn't coming — it's here. But unlike previous technological waves, AI's transformative power is being concentrated in the hands of remarkably few players, creating global imbalances that threaten to entrench existing inequalities for generations. As AI systems increasingly shape our economies, societies, and daily lives, we face a critical choice: Will we allow narrow market forces and geopolitical power dynamics to dictate AI's development, or will we proactively steer this technology toward benefiting humanity as a whole? It is late to set the stage for global prosocial AI governance, but it is not too late – yet. Before examining governance frameworks, we must confront an uncomfortable truth: the AI revolution is built on a foundation of extreme market concentration that makes Big Tech's dominance look almost quaint by comparison. Nvidia controls approximately 80 percent of revenues and shipments for datacenter GPU computing, the essential infrastructure powering modern AI systems. This isn't just market leadership — it's approaching technological hegemony. The implications extend far beyond corporate balance sheets. Collectively, the global south is home to just over 1 percent of the world's top computers, and Africa just 0.04 percent. Meanwhile, the U.S. government further restricts AI chip and technology exports, dividing up the world to keep advanced computing power in the United States and among its allies. This creates what development economists call a digital colonialism scenario — entire regions become structurally dependent on technology controlled by a handful of corporations and governments. The concentration isn't limited to hardware. Three cloud providers — Amazon, Microsoft, and Google — control over 65% of global cloud infrastructure, creating additional bottlenecks for AI access. When you need specialized chips from one company, hosted on infrastructure controlled by three others, and governed by regulations written primarily in wealthy nations, the barriers to entry become virtually insurmountable for most of the world's population. This hardware concentration translates into stark global inequalities that dwarf previous technological divides. The economic and social benefits of AI remain geographically concentrated, primarily in the Global North. But unlike the gradual rollout of previous technologies like the internet or mobile phones, AI's infrastructure requirements create immediate exclusion rather than delayed adoption. Consider the practical reality: training a state-of-the-art AI model requires computational resources that cost millions of dollars and consume as much electricity as entire cities. The rise of AI could exacerbate both within-country and between-country inequality, placing upward pressure on global inequality as high-income individuals and regions benefit disproportionately while resource-poor regions risk being left behind. This creates a vicious cycle. Countries and regions without access to AI infrastructure become less competitive economically, reducing their ability to invest in the very infrastructure they need to participate in the AI economy. Meanwhile, AI-enabled automation threatens to disrupt traditional export industries that many developing economies rely on, from manufacturing to service outsourcing. The result is what economists call premature deindustrialization — developing countries losing industrial competitiveness before achieving full industrialization. But now it's happening at digital speed, compressed from decades into years. Yet maybe the fundamental challenge with AI isn't the technology itself — it's the intention behind its development and deployment, now amplified by a sharpened concentration of control. Today's AI systems are predominantly designed to maximize engagement, extract value, or optimize narrow business metrics determined by a small number of actors. Social media algorithms amplify divisive content because controversy drives clicks. Hiring algorithms perpetuate bias because they're trained on historical data that reflects past discrimination. Financial AI systems may optimize for short-term profits while creating systemic risks. This is where prosocial AI governance becomes essential. Unlike traditional regulatory approaches that focus on constraining harmful outcomes, prosocial AI governance aims to actively incentivize beneficial behaviors from the outset. ProSocial AI can enhance access to essential services, improve efficiency in resource use, and promote sustainable practices across all levels of society — but only if we design governance systems that prioritize broad-based benefits over narrow optimization. The global AI regulation landscape is fragmented and rapidly evolving. Earlier optimism that global policymakers would enhance cooperation and interoperability within the regulatory landscape now seems distant. The European Union has pioneered comprehensive AI regulation through its AI Act, while other jurisdictions take vastly different approaches — from the United States' innovation-first philosophy to China's state-directed development model. This fragmentation creates several problems. First, it allows AI developers to engage in regulatory arbitrage, developing systems in jurisdictions with the most permissive rules. Second, it prevents the emergence of global standards that could ensure AI systems operate prosocially across borders. Third, it creates competitive disadvantages for companies that voluntarily adopt higher ethical standards. Given the borderless nature of this issue, an internationally coordinated response is necessary. AI systems don't respect national boundaries — a biased hiring algorithm developed in one country can perpetuate discrimination globally, while misinformation generated by AI can destabilize societies worldwide. Traditional regulatory approaches tend to prove inadequate for rapidly evolving technologies. By the time regulators identify and respond to harms, the damage has already been done. Prosocial AI governance offers a different approach: building beneficial outcomes into the DNA of AI systems from the beginning. This means designing AI systems that actively promote human flourishing rather than merely avoiding harm. Instead of social media algorithms that maximize engagement at all costs, we need systems that promote constructive dialogue and community building. Rather than AI systems that automate away human jobs without consideration for displaced workers, we need technologies that augment human capabilities and create new opportunities for meaningful work. Companies with strong environmental, social, and governance frameworks, enhanced by AI, outperform competitors financially and foster greater brand loyalty. This suggests that prosocial AI isn't just morally imperative — it's also economically advantageous for businesses that adopt it early. Forward-thinking business leaders are beginning to recognize that prosocial AI governance isn't a constraint on innovation—it's a competitive advantage. Organizations that proactively embed prosocial values into their AI systems build stronger relationships with customers, employees, and communities. They reduce regulatory risk, attract top talent who want to work on meaningful problems, and position themselves as leaders in an increasingly values-driven marketplace. Moreover, prosocial AI often leads to better technical outcomes. Systems designed with diverse stakeholders in mind tend to be more robust, adaptable, and effective across different contexts. AI systems built with fairness and transparency as core requirements often discover innovative solutions that benefit everyone. The economic argument becomes even stronger when considering systemic risks. AI systems that prioritize narrow optimization over broader social welfare can create negative externalities that ultimately harm the very markets they operate in. Financial AI that ignores systemic risk can contribute to market crashes. Recommendation systems that polarize societies can undermine the social cohesion that stable markets depend on. Establishing global prosocial AI governance requires coordinated action across multiple levels. International bodies need to develop frameworks that incentivize prosocial AI development while allowing for innovation and adaptation to local contexts. These frameworks should focus on outcomes rather than specific technologies, creating space for diverse approaches while ensuring consistent prosocial objectives. At the organizational level, companies need to move beyond compliance-based approaches to AI ethics. This means embedding prosocial considerations into product development processes, establishing clear accountability mechanisms, and investing in the technical infrastructure needed to build genuinely beneficial AI systems. Technical standards organizations should develop metrics and evaluation frameworks that measure prosocial outcomes, not just traditional performance metrics. We need ways to assess whether AI systems actually promote human flourishing, environmental sustainability, and social cohesion. The urgency cannot be overstated. As AI systems become more powerful and pervasive, the window for establishing prosocial governance frameworks is rapidly closing. Once entrenched systems and business models become established, changing them becomes exponentially more difficult and expensive. We're at a pivotal moment where the next generation of AI systems will be designed and deployed. The decisions we make now about how to govern these systems will shape society for decades to come. We can either allow narrow economic interests to drive AI development, or we can proactively steer this technology toward broadly beneficial outcomes. The challenge of prosocial AI governance isn't someone else's problem — it's a defining challenge of our time that requires leadership from every sector of society. Business leaders, policymakers, technologists, civil society organizations and ultimately each of us have roles in the AI-infused play that society has become. Prosocial AI governance isn't a constraint on innovation — it's the foundation for sustainable technological progress that benefits everyone. The time to act is now, before today's AI solutions become tomorrow's entrenched problems.
