Odaily Planet Daily reports that NVIDIA (NVDA.O) has released a series of new open-source artificial intelligence models, stating that these models will be faster, cheaper, and smarter than its previous products. NVIDIA is primarily known for providing chips, which companies like OpenAI use to train and profit from their closed-source models. However, NVIDIA also offers a large number of its own models, covering fields ranging from physics simulations to autonomous vehicles. These models are provided as open-source software to researchers and other companies; for example, companies like Palantir Technologies have integrated NVIDIA's models into their products. NVIDIA announced its third-generation "Nemotron" large language model on Monday, primarily targeting tasks such as writing and programming. The smallest model, Nemotron 3 Nano, was released that day, with two larger versions expected in the first half of 2026.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that an internal debate within Aave DAO has raised questions about who controls the protocol's interface and who benefits financially from it. Earlier this month, Aave Labs integrated CoWSwap into the app.aave.com interface, replacing the Paraswap route previously used for collateralized swaps. Representatives pointed out that this prevents swap-related fees from flowing into Aave DAO's coffers.
However, Marc Zeller of ACI points out that the monetization revenue from the aave.com frontend should have supported the DAO, but the CoWSwap solver relies on external free flash loans, bypassing Aave's infrastructure and further reducing the DAO's revenue. Aave Labs counters that Paraswap surpluses are never a mandatory right stipulated by the protocol, and will naturally disappear once the routing logic changes; other frontends remain permissionless, and the DAO is free to build or fund its own interfaces; the future will more clearly distinguish between the economic model under protocol governance and independently funded product decisions.
