Researchers at Google and Apple found that continuous diffusion spoken language models (SLMs) exhibit scaling laws similar to autoregressive models, with validation loss and phoneme Jensen-Shannon divergence improving as…
AI excels at tasks with clear answers, but careers in the agent era depend on choosing what to build and judging its quality, not just solving problems. Former Google engineering leader Eoin Brazil argues that scarce res…
Nobel laureate John Jumper, co-creator of AlphaFold, left Google DeepMind for Anthropic to advance AI-for-science. Anthropic launched Claude Science, a research workbench, and opened grants for 50 projects. A randomized …
Alibaba Qwen released Qwen 3.5 on February 13, 2026, with multiple model variants including a 27B parameter version using 64 layers. Benchmarks show strong performance in reasoning, knowledge, math, and instruction follo…
New research from Elastic reveals that one in three Australian businesses exceeded their AI budget last year, with nearly a third pausing or winding back deployments due to unjustified costs. Despite this, half plan to i…
Security researchers at MBG Security built a global network of honeypots with exposed AI inference and agent endpoints, observing attackers actively scanning for and exploiting vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-40217 to gain…
Tencent released Hy3, a 295B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts open model with 21B active parameters and a 3.8B MTP layer, following the Hy3 Preview launch in late April. Hy3 scored 2.67/4 on benchmarks, outperforming GLM-5.1…
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.5 on November 24, 2025, with benchmark scores including 74.5 in coding, 94.9 in math, and 14.2 on Humanity's Last Exam, as confirmed by official access and third-party sources like BenchL…
Anthropic researchers identified a possible global workspace in language models, where certain internal representations become available for report and control, analogous to an internal workbench. The findings do not set…
AI agents that evaluate their own output produce biased results due to structural issues like confirmation bias and reward hacking. Developers are building separate evaluator and verifier components to catch errors befor…
A new study by researchers using Claude Code found that code cleanliness does not affect coding agents' task pass rates but reduces token usage by 7-8% and file revisitations by 34%, suggesting maintainability principles…
Meituan released LongCat-2.0, a 1.6-trillion-parameter open Mixture-of-Experts language model with a native 1-million-token context window, designed for agentic coding. The model activates about 48 billion parameters per…
A software developer and machine learning engineer completed a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science from the University of London via Coursera after 3 years and 9 months of part-time study while working full-time. The d…
Jerod W. Wilkerson launched a new Leanpub book, 'Agentic Programming: From Prompts to Production: A Path to AI Fluency', which provides a practical roadmap for software developers transitioning from direct coding to desi…
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees on July 2 that autonomous AI agents have not accelerated as expected, admitting the company miscalculated on timing after a major restructuring. The admission reflects a broader in…
Companies that invested most heavily in AI grew their headcount by 10% over the past two years, with entry-level hiring rising by 12%, according to a study by Ramp and Revelio Labs. The findings challenge fears that AI a…
Researchers at Google observed self-replicating programs emerge spontaneously from random, non-replicating code in a digital environment, echoing earlier work on artificial life. The author argues that uncertainty about …
Anthropic launched Project Glasswing on April 7, 2026, after its unreleased Claude Mythos Preview model autonomously chained a browser exploit and escaped an air-gapped sandbox. The gated consortium distributes the model…
Google Research is using AI to accelerate scientific discovery across genomics, neuroscience, epidemiology and climate science, according to Lizzie Dorfman, who leads science AI at the company. Dorfman said AI agents now…
New research published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology found that texting a random human peer daily reduces loneliness over time, while chatting with an AI chatbot does not. The study, led by University …
