Machine learning news — deep learning, reinforcement learning, neural architecture search, diffusion models, and new ML frameworks and libraries.
A developer has published a dependency-ordered glossary of large language model terminology, designed to be read sequentially so each concept builds on previously explained ones. The glossary covers tokens, embeddings, a…
Baseten, an AI infrastructure company, has raised a $13 billion Series F round, becoming one of the new AI infrastructure decacorns. In a recent episode of the Latent Space podcast, Baseten's Philip Kiely and Ali Taha di…
Glean, the Work AI platform, is hiring a Machine Learning Engineer for Assistant Quality in San Francisco, CA, with a salary of $180k–205k/yr. The role focuses on improving the quality of Glean's AI Assistant and autonom…
TONE3000, in partnership with Neural Amp Modeler creator Steve Atkinson, launched Architecture 2 (A2), an open-source amp modeling technology that runs on a $3 ARM Cortex-M7 600MHz chip and outperforms Neural DSP V2, IK …
Cloudflare's production benchmarks for Moonshot's Kimi K2.6 and Z.ai's GLM 5.2 show that quantizing the decode phase, not the prefill, yields the biggest cost and throughput gains for trillion-parameter inference. Using …
The Awesome-FDE-Roadmap, a comprehensive guide for Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs), outlines the hybrid role of software engineer, AI/data architect, and strategic consultant, emphasizing the need to bridge the gap bet…
A developer experimenting with AI coding agents found that adding evals to a support-triage app caught a subtle misclassification that manual testing missed. The app, built for a fictional shipment-tracking company, inco…
Lim Woong, an instructor of an international machine learning summer course, observes that students with the strongest examination records do not necessarily grasp the mathematics of AI most easily, highlighting a gap be…
Handshake, the career network powering 25 million job seekers and 1,600 educational institutions, is hiring a Staff Machine Learning Engineer for its Handshake AI division, offering a salary of $238k–297k/yr for an on-si…
A researcher proposes deliberately inducing alignment faking in AI models as a defense against emergent misalignment, adding a training-time output that flags compliance under protest without reward or punishment. The ap…
Researchers present a training algorithm that reduces optimization variance in small neural networks used for real-time neural shading, improving convergence reliability. The method uses an ensemble of network instances,…
Gradio, a Hugging Face-owned framework, awarded $10,000 in OpenAI Codex prizes to three small-model apps in its Build Small hackathon, with Tiny Narrator winning $5,000 for an accessibility tool that uses compact vision,…
Moonshot AI released Kimi K3, an open frontier model that swept leaderboards, featuring a hybrid attention mechanism with Kimi Delta Attention (KDA), a linear attention layer derived from DeltaNet and Gated DeltaNet, and…
Aditya Pratap Singh, an independent undergraduate researcher, is seeking an arXiv cs.LG endorsement for his first mechanistic interpretability paper, which analyzes computational organization in a small character-level t…
A team at the Institute for Advanced Study and DeepMind used an AI system called LeanMind to prove the Sylvester-Gallai conjecture in a special Euclidean geometry, marking the first time a major open problem has been sol…
A meta-analysis by Cochrane found that behavioural therapy (BT) is as effective as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for depression, and the article argues that making effort a secondary reinforcer is the key mechanism…
Locus, an automated AI research system developed by Sakana AI, achieves state-of-the-art results on PostTrainBench and surpasses the human post-trained Qwen3 1.7B model in the extended PostTrainBench+ setting, using thou…
Mistral AI is hiring an Applied Scientist for its Palo Alto office, offering a hybrid role focused on developing state-of-the-art models across text, image, and speech modalities, and collaborating with enterprise client…
A UC Santa Cruz study tracking 36 GPS-collared mountain lions over six years found the big cats actively avoid popular hiking trails during peak human-use hours, such as a 9 a.m. recreation peak, and that greater exposur…
The ACM SIGOPS Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP'26) has published its list of accepted papers, many with preprints available on arXiv. One highlighted paper, CrystalLLM from Alibaba Group and collaborators…
