How novice coders can develop AI programs for military applications
A USAF cadet and a Lincoln Laboratory researcher found AI chatbots can help nontechnical service members produce viable software applications for their unique problems.
Liquid AI Open-Sources Antidoom: A Final Token Preference Optimization (FTPO) Method that Reduces Doom Loops in Reasoning Models
Liquid AI released Antidoom, an open-source method that targets doom loops in reasoning models. A doom loop repeats a span until the context window is exhausted. Antidoom finds the token that starts the loop and retrains only that position using Final Token Preference Optimization (FTPO). On LFM2.5-...
Q&A: How Headroom went from side project to enterprise infrastructure.
Tejas Chopra built Headroom, an open-source context compression layer for Claude and Codex, to stop burning through his own token budget. Six months on, he's left Netflix to build Headroom Labs full time. In this Q&A, he walks through the agent-to-agent context problem he's building toward next...
Tencent Releases Hy3: An Open 295B Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) Model with 21B Active Parameters and 256K Context
Tencent's Hy team released Hy3, a 295B Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model that activates only 21B parameters per token. It ships under Apache 2.0 with a 256K context window, targeting reasoning, agentic, and long-context tasks. Hy3 reports 78.0 on SWE-Bench Verified and lower hallucination rates, and is...
OpenAI Releases GPT-Realtime-2.1 and GPT-Realtime-2.1-mini for Low-Latency Voice Agents in the API
OpenAI added two Realtime models to its API. GPT-Realtime-2.1-mini is a mini reasoning model for voice, priced like the earlier gpt-realtime-mini. OpenAI also cut p95 latency by at least 25% through improved caching. Here is what changed, how pricing compares, and how to connect over WebRTC.
The pos...
Building a Scaffold-Split Random Forest QSAR Co-Scientist for EGFR Inhibitor Discovery Using ChEMBL, RDKit, SHAP, and BRICS
In this tutorial, we build an autonomous AI co-scientist for EGFR C797S inhibitor discovery. We resolve the target through ChEMBL and UniProt, then mine IC50 records into a clean pIC50 dataset. We use RDKit to standardize molecules, compute Morgan fingerprints, and train a scaffold-split Random Fore...
The ‘first’ AI-run ransomware attack still needed a human
An AI agent carried out the technical execution of a real-world ransomware attack for the first known time, but new details show a human still chose the victim, set up the infrastructure, and supplied stolen credentials — meaning it wasn't quite the fully autonomous cybercrime debut that last week's...
Clash of the Digital Titans: How Gemini and GPT-4o View the Global Trade Crisis
What happens when Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s GPT-4o debate global trade? Discover how the world's top AI models analyze supply chain chaos differently.
