Elon Musk's claim that he was mistreated by his OpenAI cofounders failed after nine California jurors decided in a unanimous verdict that his lawsuits had been filed too late.

Amazon’s Alexa+ can now generate custom AI podcasts on demand, as the company expands its assistant into a personalized AI content platform.

A lens the size of a thumbnail — and the South Korean startup that makes it could become the optical backbone of the AI glasses era.

NVIDIA introduces a 4-bit pretraining methodology built around the NVFP4 microscaling format — combining selective BF16 layers, 16×16 Random Hadamard Transforms on Wgrad inputs, 2D weight scaling, and stochastic rounding on gradients — validated on a 12B hybrid Mamba-Transformer trained on 10 trilli...

In this tutorial, we explore how to apply post-training quantization to an instruction-tuned language model using llmcompressor. We start with an FP16 baseline and then compare multiple compression strategies, including FP8 dynamic quantization, GPTQ W4A16, and SmoothQuant with GPTQ W8A8. Along the ...

Vercel Labs has released Zero, an experimental systems programming language designed so AI agents can read, repair, and ship native programs without requiring human interpretation of compiler output. The language emits JSON diagnostics with stable codes and typed repair metadata, enforces capability...

ArXiv is doing more to crack down on the careless use of large language models in scientific papers.

Running AI agents in a local script is straightforward. Running them reliably in production across teams, across restarts, with isolated environments per context is a different problem entirely. BerriAI, the company behind the LiteLLM AI Gateway, is now open-sourcing a purpose-built answer to that p...

Researchers from NVIDIA introduce SANA-WM, an open-source camera-controlled world model that generates 60-second, 720p videos with precise 6-DoF camera control — trained on 64 H100 GPUs and deployable on a single RTX 5090. The post NVIDIA Introduces SANA-WM: A 2.6B-Parameter Open-Source World Model ...

The Musk v. Altman trial came to a close this week, and the final arguments kept circling back to one question: can we trust the people in charge of AI? All of this is playing out as SpaceX charges toward what could be one of the largest IPOs in American history, with a whole generation of founders ...

A powerful illustrated allegory charting humanity's journey from raw physical labor to cognitive dependency on AI. This triptych explores the irony of strengthening our machines while weakening our own minds and bodies. There is nothing better for the body and the mind than to exercise and use both....

AI video generation startup Runway is betting that video generation is the path to world models. And that being an AI outsider is an advantage, not a liability.

Osaurus combines local and cloud AI models in a Mac app that keeps users’ memory, files, and tools on their own hardware.

The Seoul-based speech AI company ships its third generation of its on-device TTS engine, adding expressive tags, improved reading stability, and a 6× increase in language coverage — all while keeping the inference contract unchanged for existing integrations. The post Supertone Releases Supertonic ...

Poetiq's Meta-System automatically constructed and optimized an inference harness for LiveCodeBench Pro using only Gemini 3.1 Pro — no fine-tuning, no model internals. The same harness, applied without modification to GPT 5.5 High, Kimi K2.6, Gemini 3.0 Flash, and four other models, improved every o...

Cline has extracted its internal agent harness into an open-source TypeScript SDK called @cline/sdk, the same runtime now powering its CLI and Kanban, with VS Code and JetBrains extensions being migrated. The SDK is structured as a four-layer stack — @cline/shared, @cline/llms, @cline/agents, and @c...

More than 50 employees have reportedly left Elon Musk’s newly merged SpaceXAI since February, raising questions about burnout, leadership changes, talent poaching, and whether liquidity events weakened retention incentives.

Richard Socher's new $650 million startup wants to build an AI that can research and improve itself indefinitely — and he insists it will actually ship products.

A new open source gadget called Clawdmeter turns Claude Code usage stats into a tiny desktop dashboard for AI coding power users.

Crosby is building Synthetic, a fully autonomous AI bookkeeping service for other startups.
