The premise for an always-on agent was a single computer

A conversation that asks someone who has actually run a continuously running agent what the prerequisites are. The conclusion lands not on the model or the prompt but on two things. One is a single dedicated machine that

Do not ask for a fix — nail the structure down

A hands-on run that follows all the way through the work of nailing down, as files, a structure that removes the need to ask for a fix every time. The structure has six parts: a standards document setting down tone and d

An agent is chat windows split by role, connected

A note that explains an agent as several chat windows with different roles strung together. If you ask for planning, design and development all in one window, context that has nothing to do with the job at hand gets mixe

NVIDIA

It is the first model from a new US lab. Company-reported scores were SWEBench Verified 81.6%, GPQA Diamond 90.6%, AIME 2026 97.7% and Terminal Bench v2.1 80.1% (on BF16), and it ships in three versions, BF16, FP8 and NV

The bottleneck in automation was data, not the model

A record in which someone who pushed work automation forward on their own for a year, with no outside help, lays the process out in three stages. The first stage is collecting: piling five streams — email, calls, meeting

The authors reported that in the setting where the constraints have to be found by the model, even the best configuration averaged only 0.56 points and solved just 14 of the 95 tasks. Even in the 23 tasks where every nec

OpenAI
OpenAI releases a Brazilian Portuguese course for teachers

AISLE said that in its first year out of stealth it was assigned more than 500 CVEs across more than 100 codebases, and that it found all 12 vulnerabilities in OpenSSL's January security release and 18 of the 24 in curl'

Bingxi Hou et al.
Waypoint-OPD released

It starts from the point that looking only at the endpoints lets preference changes from early and late training cancel each other out and hide the parts where the teacher changed consistently. The authors reported that

Mistral AI

Company-reported, the 209M model ranks No. 1 in the pretrained zero-shot categories of GIFT-Eval, TIME and fev-bench, and the 28M model beat Chronos-2, which is about four times larger. On an 8-thread server CPU the 5M m

IBM
IBM releases Granite Switch 4.1

Because these are activated LoRAs, the KV cache built by the base model can be reused for the judgment that follows, and IBM said GPU memory with all three components added stays close to that of the base model alone. It

Luozheng Qin et al.
MJev-Spatial released

The authors reported that, trained on 12.3 million question-answer pairs on top of Qwen3.5-4B, it ranked No. 1 among the 8 models compared, with an overall 65.64%, and was No. 1 on 7 of 12 benchmarks. They reported it wa

Black Forest Labs

The authors reported that on OSWorld-v2 the average partial score of the 8 models evaluated rose by 19.6 points and that steps per task fell by 53.0% on average compared with running screen control alone. They released t

Showing a structure and mass-producing it are different things

A conversation that explains the change in the cell structure of memory chips at a non-specialist's level and weighs what it means. A cell is made of one container that holds electricity and one switch that opens and clo

Turn a run that came out well into a skill on the spot

A how-to that builds a research agent which runs on its own at a set time each week, using nothing but a scheduling feature. It likens building one to hiring a person and splits it into four stages — deciding what to ask

How to bring back a program whose source is gone

A hands-on run that attaches a reverse-engineering toolkit — one that takes a finished program apart and recovers its structure — to a coding agent. On a request the toolkit runs the specialist analyzers on your behalf a

Who checks the answers AI gives in math

An explainer that reads the debate over AI-produced math results against the history of computer proofs. The four color theorem in 1976 was proved with computer calculations no person could follow to the end, which cause
