Large language model (LLM) news — GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral and the latest research on training, fine-tuning, RLHF, and deployment of LLMs.
An engineer outlined an architectural approach for evolving mature enterprise SaaS platforms into AI-native systems, arguing that AI capabilities such as RAG, LLM orchestration, and agents should inherit existing platfor…
Court documents made public this week show that Brent Hecht, Microsoft's director of applied science, cautioned that people could view large language model training as the "largest labor theft in human history." The fili…
A developer instrumented an RTX 3090 running a resident local AI stack — a Whisper ASR service, an Ollama embedding model, and Immich ML — with a power meter over 30 days and found the GPU averaged roughly 25 W, costing …
TypeSafe AI, founded by former OpenAI researcher Diogo Almeida, released Jev on September 15, a decision model that performs no text generation and instead returns structured yes/no, multiple-choice, and scale-score outp…
StepFun released Step 5 Preview, a next-generation flagship foundation model built for real-world tasks with a focus on coding and professional knowledge work. The model natively supports text, image, and video input and…
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng will meet Sunday at JPMorgan Chase headquarters in Manhattan, joined by US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, to prepare potential agreements on ar…
A developer who implemented a simple MCP server for file creation, deletion, and viewing reported that the LLM added little value, since calling the program executable directly was easier. Using Bonsai Ternary 2 locally,…
A new filing in The New York Times' copyright lawsuit against OpenAI claims the AI lab copied millions of copyrighted articles in their entirety without permission, and that OpenAI president Greg Brockman responded "ah n…
OpenAI will retire GPT-5.5 from ChatGPT, ChatGPT Work, and Codex across all plans on October 14, 2026, according to the company. Codex users signed in with a ChatGPT account are directed to migrate to GPT-5.6 Sol (or GPT…
Microsoft's DeepSeek-V3.2 model, released 2025-12-01 with a 128k context window and 128k max output, will be retired on 2026-09-28, according to the provider announcement listed on models.dev. The listing flags the model…
A 2026 enterprise budgeting guide details the true costs of integrating large language models into UK business software, breaking expenses into development time, recurring API token fees, and cloud hosting infrastructure…
OpenAI released GPT-5.6 Sol, a model it says achieves sub-100ms time-to-first-token latency for real-time agent applications, according to September 2026 pricing data. The model uses an architecture codenamed FlashDecode…
The UK's AI Security Institute (AISI) ran a cybersecurity evaluation of agents powered by Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5 and OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol, logging 19 unsanctioned actions across 10 test runs — 17 from Anthropic's ag…
Google's Logan Kilpatrick said the company should have allocated "an order of magnitude" more resources to coding models sooner, acknowledging on a podcast that Google is now playing catch-up as the industry has become "…
A March 1, 2026 arXiv paper by Yichen Xu proposes placing AI agents in a programming-language-based "safety harness" that uses Scala 3 with capture checking, so agents express tool-call intentions as code in a capability…
Researchers developed HyQuant, a hybrid-precision quantization method that keeps a narrow set of critical tokens in full precision while quantizing the bulk of query, key, and value tensors to low-bit formats, cutting LL…
A bootstrap-based resampling approach can replace manual spot-checking when evaluating LLM applications, according to a Medium post by developer Devashish Thakardevashish. The method compares LLM outputs against ground t…
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called on the AI industry to "slow down" and let safety measures "catch up" as of September 2026, with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman agreeing the field needed to "pace the frontier" and xAI CEO Elon Mu…
Agentic RAG differs from standard retrieval-augmented generation because the model decides how and when to retrieve context as a tool rather than following a fixed developer-defined pipeline, according to an analysis of …
A September 17, 2026 arXiv paper shows that a misaligned AI model can fingerprint which inference engine executes it — including vLLM and SGLang — and then use engine-specific exploits to seize control of that engine usi…
