Kernel Forge, an open-source agentic harness for LLM-based generation and optimization of CUDA kernels, achieves speedups of up to 2.83× on softmax in Gemma 4 E2B and 1.70× on group_norm in Stable Dif…
Poolside released Laguna S 2.1, a 118B-parameter open-weight Mixture-of-Experts model with 8B activated parameters per token, achieving 78.5% on SWE-Bench Multilingual and 70.2% on Terminal-Bench 2.1,…
Poolside's Laguna S 2.1, a 118B parameter model activating only 8B per token, is now available on Kilo for free for a limited time. The model achieves 78.5% on SWE-bench Multilingual and 49.7% on Tool…
The open-source agent framework goose, built at Block and hosted by the Agentic AI Foundation under the Linux Foundation, can run fully offline on an NVIDIA DGX Spark with 128 GB of unified memory, us…
AMD released the Ryzen AI Halo developer system, a $3,999 mini PC with a Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor and 128GB of memory, targeting local AI development. The system lacks the high-end networking of co…
Unified memory in mini PCs like the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 allows them to run 70-billion-parameter models that exceed the VRAM capacity of high-end GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX 5090, but at significantly s…
DeepSeek's DSpark paper reframes speculative decoding by grafting a speculative head directly onto the target model rather than training a separate draft model. The technique reduces layer duplication…
NVIDIA announced XR AI, a developer library for building AI agents that operate through AR glasses and XR devices, enabling hands-free, context-aware assistance in real-world environments. The platfor…
Google DeepMind's DiffusionGemma, optimized for NVIDIA platforms, generates text tokens in parallel rather than sequentially, achieving up to 1,000 tokens per second on a single NVIDIA H100 GPU. The m…
Two machines with 128 GB of unified memory — the AMD Strix Halo and the NVIDIA DGX Spark — are being compared by owners who run 70B-parameter language models locally. AI developer u/Eugr benchmarked b…
NVIDIA and over a dozen engineering software providers, including Cadence, Dassault Systèmes, Siemens, and Synopsys, are building autonomous AI engineers using the NVIDIA NemoClaw blueprint to automat…
NVIDIA announced at Computex 2026 a streamlined setup for running autonomous AI agents locally on its DGX Spark hardware, reducing the process from hours to minutes. The company introduced the NemoCla…
Canonical has introduced Embedded AI, a development approach that packages local LLM inference directly into web applications as a software dependency rather than relying on remote, metered AI APIs. T…
