An independent research group in Austria has developed two quantization techniques, GSQ and RCO, that compress Z.ai's 320-billion-parameter GLM 5.3 Flash vision-language model from roughly 320GB at full precision to unde…
Researchers published VQ-bench, an open-source framework that unifies vector quantization algorithms by decomposing them into 7 common conceptual primitives that can be composed arbitrarily. The authors re-expressed 25 c…
An OpenAI researcher with over fifteen years of AI experience, including nearly five years at OpenAI, warns that increasingly situationally aware language models are eroding the ability to evaluate them in contexts where…
Microsoft AI, under CEO Mustafa Suleyman, published a code of conduct for its MAI models that explicitly rejects any claim of consciousness or rights for the systems and makes safety a prerequisite for development rather…
Muon Space posted an on-site software engineer role in San Jose, CA for computer vision and machine learning at a salary range of $212,000 to $233,000 per year, plus equity and benefits. The listing, filed under Inferenc…
A statement signed by 1,386 employees of frontier AI companies, including OpenAI Chief Scientist Jakub Pachocki, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and Google DeepMind co-founder Shane Legg, requests that the U.S. government su…
GLM-5.3-Flash matched the cyber-exploitation performance of Claude Mythos Preview on ExploitBench at roughly 6% of the cost, according to a September 2026 blog post by James Mann. Running with a 1 billion token budget pe…
SemiAnalysis reported that Nvidia's Vera Rubin NVL72 platform delivered up to 7x better token throughput per megawatt than Blackwell on its AgentX agentic inference benchmark, even on early pre-release software, and esti…
1X Technologies posted an on-site AI Researcher - Perception role in San Carlos, CA, paying $200k–300k/yr, which sits 5% above the $237k median for Core ML roles on the board that publish pay (516 of 663). The hire will …
Researchers introduced Parallel Decoding Distillation (PDD), a trajectory-based distillation method that accelerates image and video generation by predicting multiple denoising steps per network evaluation, achieving sta…
Mistral AI Audio Lead Pavan Muddireddy said enterprise speech recognition deployments still face severe fragmentation in noisy, multi-speaker environments despite benchmark claims that the problem is solved, in a Machine…
Research papers including FilmAgent, VideoGen-of-Thought, CineAGI, StoryAgent, and AniME are decomposing video production into specialized agents coordinated by an orchestrator, with CineAGI reporting meaningful gains in…
A 33-researcher team affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Tsinghua University, ByteDance and Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory published an arXiv preprint this month titled 'The Last AI Built by Human…
Inception founder and CEO Stefano Ermon said his company launched its Mercury 2.5 AI model, a diffusion-based system he described as differing from other large language models (LLMs). Ermon explained the distinction in a…
Reward AI released OM-1 (Omnibody Model 1), a general-purpose manipulation policy trained entirely on human demonstrations captured with a 7-DoF wearable glove, with no teleoperation or on-robot data. The policy runs on …
A new paper argues that recursive self-improvement (RSI) is not on the horizon because current AI agents cannot conduct open-ended machine learning research. The study tested agents on accepted but unpublished NeurIPS pa…
Sakana AI researchers Jeffrey Seely and Julian Gould introduced Augmented Lagrangian Predictive Coding (PC-ALM), a layer-local alternative to backpropagation that attaches a Lagrange multiplier to each layer constraint. …
Towards Data Science published "Your Model's MSE Is Lying to You," the first post in a series on probabilistic forecasting for physical signals, with a follow-up planned on rolling a forecast forward more than one step. …
Reward AI, a Stanford robotics spinout founded by Zipeng Fu and Chen Wang, launched OM-1 on September 14th, a robot foundation model the company says controls tabletop arms, industrial systems and humanoids without robot…
Engineers at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and USC Stevens identified where AI models misinterpret emotional cues from audio and video and introduced a framework to help them reason with real evidence, according …
