Everything Google announced at its Android Show, from Googlebooks to vibe-coded widgets
Google unveiled its new AI-first Googlebooks laptops, more agentic Gemini features, vibe-coded Android widgets, Gemini in Chrome, refreshed Android Auto, and more ahead of I/O.
Personal AI doesn’t have to run your life to change it. It just must see you clearly and feed your behavior back to you in a way you can’t dodge. Once you look at AI as feedback loops instead of little butlers, the whole “agent” conversation starts to feel upside down. We’ve overrotated on agents […...
Tilde Research Introduces Aurora: A Leverage-Aware Optimizer That Fixes a Hidden Neuron Death Problem in Muon
Researchers at Tilde Research have released Aurora, a new optimizer for training neural networks that addresses a structural flaw in the widely-used Muon optimizer. The flaw quietly kills off a significant fraction of MLP neurons during training and keeps them permanently dead. Aurora comes with a 1...
A Coding Implementation to Portfolio Optimization with skfolio for Building Testing, Tuning, and Comparing Modern Investment Strategies
In this tutorial, we explore skfolio, a scikit-learn compatible portfolio optimization library that helps us build, compare, and evaluate different investment strategies in a structured Python workflow. We start by loading S&P 500 price data, converting it into returns, and creating a time-based tra...
OpenAI Introduces Daybreak: A Cybersecurity Initiative That Puts Codex Security at the Center of Vulnerability Detection and Patch Validation
OpenAI on just launched Daybreak, a cybersecurity initiative that combines the company’s frontier AI models with Codex Security, its coding-focused agentic system, and a broad network of security partners. The program is aimed at developers, enterprise security teams, researchers, and government-lin...
Thinking Machines wants to build an AI that actually listens while it talks
Right now, every AI model you've ever used works the same way. You talk, it listens. It responds, you listen. Thinking Machines is trying to change that by building a model that processes your input and generates a response at the same time, so it's more like a phone call than a text chain.
What Parameter Golf taught us about AI-assisted research
Parameter Golf brought together 1,000+ participants and 2,000+ submissions to explore AI-assisted machine learning research, coding agents, quantization, and novel model design under strict constraints.
GM just laid off hundreds of IT workers to hire those with stronger AI skills
Some of the positions focus on AI-native development, data engineering and analytics, cloud-based engineering, and agent and model development as well as prompt engineering and new AI workflows.
Modern large language models are no longer trained only on raw internet text. Increasingly, companies are using powerful “teacher” models to help train smaller or more efficient “student” models. This process, broadly known as LLM distillation or model-to-model training, has become a key technique f...
In finance departments that have long been defined by precision and control, AI has arrived less as a neatly managed upgrade than as a quiet insurgency. Employees are already using it while leadership races to impose structure, governance, and strategy after the fact. The result is a paradox: one of...
Human-in-the-Loop becomes an operational bottleneck In my previous article, ”The Missing Layer in Agentic AI,” I argued that AI agents need a deterministic execution kernel—a privileged “Kernel Space” that validates every proposed action before it touches the real world. That article focused on what...
Sakana AI and NVIDIA Introduce TwELL with CUDA Kernels for 20.5% Inference and 21.9% Training Speedup in LLMs
Sakana AI and NVIDIA Researchers demonstrate that simple L1 regularization can induce over 99% sparsity in feedforward layers with negligible downstream performance impact, and translate that sparsity into real GPU throughput gains using new sparse data formats and fused CUDA kernels.
The post Sakan...
A Coding Implementation to Build Agent-Native Memory Infrastructure with Memori for Persistent Multi-User and Multi-Session LLM Applications
In this tutorial, we implement how Memori serves as an agent-native memory infrastructure layer for building more persistent, context-aware LLM applications. We start by setting up Memori in a Google Colab environment and connecting it to both synchronous and asynchronous OpenAI clients, so that eve...
OpenAI launches DeployCo to help businesses build around intelligence
OpenAI launches DeployCo, a new enterprise deployment company built to help organizations bring frontier AI into production and turn it into measurable business impact.
DeepSeek’s new AI model is rolling out quietly, not to the Wall Street market shock
DeepSeek’s latest AI model was poised for a major launch. And yet, the markets did not react as expected to the release of DeepSeek’s V4 preview, despite the Chinese startup making technical headway with its latest software. Investors are less likely to swoon at the announcement of a more powerful, ...
U.S. Officials Want Early Access to Advanced AI, and the Big Companies Have Agreed
Microsoft, Google DeepMind and Elon Musk’s xAI have offered to let the U.S. government access new AI models ahead of their general release, which sets up a new phase in Silicon Valley’s often fractious relationship with the US government’s fear of AI threats, based on the latest report of AI compani...
