When researchers at Anthropic injected the concept of "betrayal" into their Claude AI model's neural networks and asked if it noticed anything unusual, the system paused before responding: "Yes, I detect an injected thought about betrayal."The exchange, detailed in new research published Wednesday, marks what scientists say is the first rigorous evidence that large language models possess a limited but genuine ability to observe and report on their own internal...

Enterprise AI agents today face a fundamental timing problem: They can't easily act on critical business events because they aren't always aware of them in real-time.The challenge is infrastructure. Most enterprise data lives in databases fed by extract-transform-load (ETL) jobs that run hourly or daily — ultimately too slow for agents that must respond in real time.One potential way to tackle that challenge is to have agents directly interface with...

For three decades, the web has been designed with one audience in mind: People. Pages are optimized for human eyes, clicks and intuition. But as AI-driven agents begin to browse on our behalf, the human-first assumptions built into the internet are being exposed as fragile.The rise of agentic browsing — where a browser doesn’t just show pages but takes action — marks the beginning of this shift. Tools like Perplexity’s... Read more ›

That model is none other than MiniMax-M2, the latest LLM from the Chinese startup of the same... Read more ›
