Now I have a good picture of recent URLs. Let me also check the most recent memory file for today and the 1000 news pulse.

Key URLs to avoid from recent briefings:
- GitHub Codespaces RCE (infosecurity-magazine)
- India AI Summit (reuters/techcrunch)
- UK social media ban / AI chatbot rules
- US-Iran Geneva nuclear talks
- Ukraine-Russia Geneva peace talks
- S&P 500 breaks 7,000

- NY Fed tariff costs
- Crypto winter quantum risk
- ISS bacteriophage

- Gemini Deep Think math problems
- Carney EU vs Trump tariffs

I'm noting that some topics are already well-covered—US-Iran nuclear talks, UK social media and AI regulation, Nvidia earnings, and Bitcoin have all appeared multiple times—so I should steer clear of those. Now I'll search for fresh news across the five categories with a broad approach.

Good — I have the recent URLs. Now let me search for fresh news across all categories simultaneously.

Excellent finds! I have:
1. Alibaba's Qwen 3.5: 397B parameter open-source model (Feb 16, 2026) — this is brand new and very significant!
2. NASA Artemis II: countdown simulation starting Feb 17 (new item!)
3. Space Brief from KeepTrack: Pentagon satellites, nuclear power in space, launches (new!)
4. Alibaba's zvec: vector database (already found above)

Now let me also check:
- Markets: Zacks story (MS, NFLX, CBRE)
- Motley Fool crypto regulations Q2 2026

- Political coverage from ATFX on Trump's Ukraine position and Moscow financing
- BeyondTrust vulnerability update from cybernewscentre.com as an alternative source to bleepingcomputer
- ICE 287(g) program expansion details

I should dig deeper into markets and crypto for more unique angles beyond what I've already gathered.

New crypto market legislation could provide a much-needed boost to anxious crypto investors.
The crypto market may appear to be in free fall right now, but there's one big catalyst on the horizon that could turn things around sooner than any one expects: the introduction of groundbreaking new crypto market legislation.

Right now, there are two major pieces of crypto market legislation that could drop as early as this summer. These new crypto regulations could lead to a wave of institutional adoption and make it easier for risk-averse institutional investors to get exposure to the crypto asset class. Here's what to expect.

Good. Now let me compile what I have and search for a few more items to ensure I have diversity. I also need something for global politics beyond Ukraine/Russia and US-Iran (already covered in prior briefings).Let me search for more:
- Specific geopolitical news in Africa, Asia, Middle East
- Zacks/tipranks earnings reports
- More tech or security news

Current items found so far:

I've got 12 solid items now. Running through the coverage to make sure I'm hitting different sectors across tech, AI, policy, markets, and science without too much overlap.

Looking at the global section though — I've got ICE 287(g) and the coal executive order, which are both domestic US policy stories. I should swap one of those out for an actual international news item to get better geographic diversity. Let me find a non-US global story to round this out.

Good items found. Let me search for international political news to ensure GLOBAL isn't all US-domestic.

Excellent! CNBC has a story on Qwen 3.5! That's a much better URL than the LinkedIn/WordPress ones I found earlier. Let me use that.Now let me fetch the OneWorldNews political roundup for global news and see what US-China tensions are about.Also, let me look for one non-US political story. Let me check the global news roundup.Current confirmed items (all NEW, not in prior briefings):

**TECH:**
1. 🛠 Alibaba `zvec`: lightweight in-process vector database trending on GitHub — https://aitoolly.com/ai-news/article/2026-02-17-alibaba-introduces-zvec-a-lightweight...

2. 🛠 Chrome DevTools MCP: encoding proxies tool — https://aitoolly.com/ai-news/article/2026-02-17-chrome-devtools-mcp...

**AI:**

5. 🤖 CNN: This doctor trains AI to do her job (booming business) — https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/17/business/ai-experts-training-jobs

**GLOBAL:**
6. 🌍 ICE 287(g) immigration enforcement program explodes under Trump — https://www.vpm.org/npr-news/2026-02-17/a-once-underused-immigration-enforcement-program-has-exploded-under-trump
7. 🌍 Looking for a non-US angle here — OneWorldNews has coverage on US-China tensions and UK election developments I could pull from.

**MARKETS**
Now checking the financial side: crypto regulations are coming in Q2 with the Genius Act and others, plus some notable market moves today with CBRE down significantly and Netflix showing weakness year-to-date.

**SCIENCE/SPACE:**
Quantum sensor breakthroughs at Oak Ridge are opening new possibilities for dark matter research.

NASA's Artemis II is running a full countdown simulation this week.

I need one more strong global story to round this out. Let me look at the OneWorldNews political roundup or the ATFX macro update on the Trump-Ukraine situation — there's been movement on US posture toward Ukraine, new financing signals from Moscow, and escalating tensions in the Mediterranean and around Iran. The OneWorldNews piece also touched on US-China friction and UK election developments.

## Political Roundup — Global Diplomacy at Munich Summit, Trump on Taiwan, UK Election U-Turn, India Political Moves & AI Summit Diplomacy
 In this Political Roundup, global diplomacy dominated headlines as the 62nd Munich Security Conference concluded with intensified talks on Ukraine security, global alliances, and escalating geopolitical tensions. Leaders from Europe, Asia, and North America convened in Munich to address the pressing need for unified responses to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, shifting Middle East dynamics, and the broader challenge of strategic stability. Massive protests numbering over a quarter million, in support of Iranian citizens, highlighted a powerful wave of diaspora activism linked to ongoing civil unrest at home. The demonstrations underscored how transnational populations continue using global forums to amplify urgent human rights issues, blending grassroots pressure with elite diplomatic engagement in this Political Roundup.

3. Massive protests (250k+) for Iranian diaspora / civil unrest in Iran
4. UK election U-turn (mentioned in snippet)These are fresh angles! Let me use the Munich Security Conference / Taiwan arms story for GLOBAL, alongside the ICE enforcement story.

Let me also check for the Trump-Taiwan arms story from a more authoritative source.

Two great Global items:
1. **Taiwan News**: Trump says he's discussing arms sales to Taiwan with Xi — https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/6304006 (Published Feb 17)
2. **Foreign Policy/Qazinform**: Munich Security Conference 2026 ends with "no new answers" on Ukraine — https://foreignpolicy.com/projects/munich-security-conference/ or https://qazinform.com/news/munich-security-conference-2026-overview-and-key-divisions-e981f7The instructions say Munich Conference is on the "removed overreported" list! Wait, looking back: "Remove over-reported: Anthropic $30B, NASA Crew-12, DHS shutdown, Munich Conference" - yes! Munich Conference is in the excluded list. So I should NOT use the Munich Security Conference.

So for GLOBAL:
- ICE 287(g) immigration enforcement expansion ✓
- Trump-Taiwan arms signal (discussing with Xi) ✓ — this is fresh and not over-reported

Now I'm putting together my final list of 11-12 diverse items. Starting with tech: Alibaba's new lightweight vector database is trending on GitHub and looks like a solid addition.

Adding a couple more tech items — Chrome DevTools has a new encoding proxy tool also gaining traction, and there's an active BeyondTrust exploit that CISA just issued an emergency directive for on February 17th.

Moving into AI, Alibaba released Qwen 3.5, their new agentic model, which got coverage from CNBC.

There's also an interesting trend piece from CNN about how doctors are training AI systems to handle their work, which is fueling demand in the expert training market.

On the global front, there's reporting on how the ICE 287(g) immigration enforcement program has surged under Trump, plus Trump's comments about discussing Taiwan arms sales with Xi.

And in markets, Motley Fool is flagging two crypto regulations expected to drop in Q2 2026.

Now I'm looking at some market updates—CBRE and Netflix are down year-to-date while Morgan Stanley has a buy rating on something. There's also quantum sensor research advancing the search for dark matter, and NASA's running a full countdown simulation for Artemis II today.

I've got 11 items total across the categories, but I'm second-guessing the GitHub trending pieces about zvec and Chrome DevTools MCP from aitoolly.com. Those feel pretty minor compared to something like the KeepTrack Space Brief covering Pentagon satellites and nuclear power in space. Let me think about whether swapping one of those out makes sense for better coverage.

Actually, I already have two space stories, so the balance is fine as is. Let me just finalize this and start formatting the briefing. I'm verifying the timestamp conversion—11:09 AM UTC on February 17, 2026 converts to 6:09 AM EST—and now I'll structure the message properly.

I have all 11 items confirmed. Let me now compose and send the briefing.
