I’ve been thinking about a gap in the way we discuss graphs in AI. Most of the conversation starts after the graph already exists. We talk about graph neural networks, GraphRAG, graph agents, and graph foundation models. We spend much less time on the step that determines what all of them can do: tu...

MIT Technology Review Explains: Let our writers untangle the complex, messy world of technology to help you understand what’s coming next. You can read more from the series here. Over the past few months, a cascade of cyberattacks by AI agents has stunned the world. In July, OpenAI disclosed that a ...

TypeSafe AI's Jev skips text generation and returns typed decisions with calibrated probabilities. Input costs $0.042 per million tokens and output is free. We verified 20 agentic use cases, from model routing and tool-call gating to reranking and injection screening, and compared Jev with its close...

Google Research has introduced an AI video co-director for long-form video generation. The suite of 4 agentic frameworks turns short clips into coherent, minutes-long stories. It targets identity drift and cascading errors, the 2 failures that break most multi-shot AI video pipelines today. Why Long...

The AI story of September 22–28 was not simply that agents became more capable. It was that their hidden handoffs became visible: a supposedly automated call could reach a contractor, a supposedly private prompt or image could reach a reviewer, a monitor could detect an agent long before a person st...
