Google has pulled the plug on Project Mariner, an experimental feature designed to perform tasks for you across the web. Its technology has been integrated into other Google products like Gemini Agent and AI Mode.
Learn how to validate autonomous AI agents using dominator analysis to focus on essential outcomes instead of rigid scripts, reducing false negatives in CI pipelines.
Most agentic applications today have a memory problem: each new session starts from scratch. CopilotKit's Enterprise Intelligence Platform adds a managed infrastructure layer that automatically handles state and memory, enabling any agent framework to have persistent memory across sessions and devices, retaining context, state, and interaction history. The core primitive is Threads, which capture generative UI, human-in-the-loop workflows, shared state, voice, files, and multimodal interactions. The platform can be self-hosted on Kubernetes, is SOC 2 Type II compliant, and future roadmaps include analytics and self-improvement capabilities.
Anaconda's acquisition of Outerbounds aims to bridge the gap between AI experimentation and production by adding a coordination layer for workflow definition, execution, and tracking using Metaflow, without replacing existing tools.
Today's AI agents are not designed to extract deep insights from new observations.
The protocol is designed to improve GPU performance as AI compute ramps up.
The Trump administration reversed its pro-deregulation AI stance, prompting David Sacks' ouster as AI czar. National security fears over Anthropic's Mythos model, international regulatory pressure, and Sacks' own missteps led to a shift toward government pre-release review of AI models.
Ably's real-time infrastructure, originally built for human collaboration, now also enables long-running AI agents. HTTP fails for agents that need persistent connections, handle interruptions, and multi-device sync. Ably introduces a 'durable session' layer and AI Transport to solve these issues, allowing developers to integrate without changing existing architecture.
OpenAI has teamed up with AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Microsoft, and NVIDIA to develop MRC, an open source network protocol that sends data across hundreds of paths simultaneously between GPUs. Instead of three or four switch layers, MRC needs only two to connect over 100,000 GPUs, cutting both power and costs. The protocol is already running on OpenAI's Stargate supercomputer.
ServiceNow AI team's migration from vLLM V0 to V1 for RL training identified four backend fixes: processed logprobs, runtime defaults, inflight weight updates, and fp32 lm_head. They prioritized backend correctness before applying objective-side corrections, achieving full parity with V0 reference.
Sysdig announces the first headless cloud security platform designed for AI agents, enabling machine-speed, hyper-personalized cyber defense without traditional dashboards.
Anthropic has partnered with SpaceX to take over the full computing capacity of SpaceX's Colossus 1 data center, more than 300 megawatts and over 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs, expected online within a month. The company also doubles Claude Code rate limits and significantly raises API limits for Opus models.
Vultr, in collaboration with SUSE and Supermicro, announced a strategic architectural framework to simplify deploying and operating AI workloads across distributed environments, integrating high-performance hardware, localized cloud infrastructure, and unified Kubernetes management to address latency, cost, and consistency challenges.
OpenAI's former CTO Mira Murati testified under oath that CEO Sam Altman lied to her about safety standards for a new AI model. She also criticized Altman's management style, saying he made her job difficult and undermined her authority.
Google is downloading a 4GB file to many Chrome users' PCs for its Gemini Nano on-device AI model. The file is harmless, but its size and quiet installation raise concerns.
A security researcher found that Microsoft Edge stores plaintext passwords in RAM. Microsoft defends the behavior as a feature, but experts warn of security risks. Switching to a dedicated password manager is recommended.
The move indicates that the German enterprise software giant is intent on growing its own in-house AI capabilities.
DeepInfra, a purpose-built cloud platform for high-throughput AI inference, has raised $107 million in Series B funding to scale its inference cloud and global capacity. The platform processes nearly five trillion tokens per week, enabling enterprises to run open-source and agent-driven AI workloads with improved cost, performance, and security.
The platform turns text prompts into production-ready hardware designs in minutes, covering electrical, mechanical, thermal, and systems engineering, with simulation and direct-to-manufacture capabilities.
Pipali is an AI coworker that lives on your computer, interacting with files, browsers, and apps to get real work done—from deep research and polished docs to routine errands. It supports custom skills, recurring routines, and integrates with apps like Linear, Slack, and GitHub via MCP. Open-source and safety-focused.
Anthropic launches Claude Financial Services Solutions, a set of 10 AI agent templates designed for finance workflows including investment banking, commercial banking, asset management, and insurance. The agents work within existing tools like Excel and PowerPoint, connect to financial data providers, and handle tasks from KYC screening to pitch book creation, while keeping human oversight for critical decisions.
Prism is an AI-native recruiting agency that goes beyond traditional networks and databases to find high-fit candidates. Its AI engine scores 89.6 on the PSB benchmark, 21+ points ahead of the strongest published baseline. The service handles sourcing, engagement, screening, and chasing, while clients only need to interview and make offers. Pricing: $500 retainer + 15% of first-year salary; launch week offer waives the retainer.
Naptick is a bedside AI sleep companion that combines circadian light therapy, 1000+ adaptive soundscapes, room condition intelligence, app-locking, and an on-device AI sleep coach. Designed to be phone-free, it actively helps users fall asleep faster and wake up refreshed, targeting founders, professionals, and light sleepers.
Readers respond to Richard Dawkins' AI consciousness claim, LLM acronym ambiguity, the flattery battery analogy, 1950s PE dancing, and a mathematics teaching breakthrough.
Anthropic introduces 'dreaming' for Claude Managed Agents, enabling self-improvement through session review. The move continues the company's trend of anthropomorphizing AI products.
Google has released multi-token prediction drafters for its Gemma 4 open model family that speed up text generation by up to three times. A small auxiliary model suggests several tokens at once while the main model checks them in a single pass.
Ship AI agents without the operational burden. Phrony enables easy deployment of AI agents, freeing users from infrastructure management.
ServiceNow announced new governance features, free access to its low-code app management tool, new integrations with third-party development tools, and updates to its agent-building tools at Knowledge 2026. The company recognizes that developer loyalty is dead and focuses on providing enterprise-grade controls regardless of the AI coding tool used.
People have mixed feelings about AI for fitness. Some rely on it for personalized plans, others refuse due to economic and environmental concerns. Experts warn AI can give confidently wrong advice, so cross-checking with credible sources is essential. This article features 11 reader experiences, highlighting AI's benefits and limitations.
