It's that business leaders are making a category error, treating AI transformation like previous technology rollouts and del

Construction began on the ballroom this week, and the White House's east wing was partially torn down. Trump claims that the ballroom will cost "about $300 million" and that it will be privately funded through donations. The cost has already increased $100 million over the figure that Trump...

Called Markovian Thinking, the approach allows LLMs to engage in lengthy reasoning without incurring the prohibitive computational costs that currently limit such tasks.The team’s implementation, an environment named Delethink, structures the reasoning chain into fixed-size chunks, breaking the scaling problem that plagues very long LLM responses.

AI agents – task-specific models designed to operate autonomously or semi-autonomously given instructions — are being widely implemented across enterprises (up to 79% of all surveyed for a PwC report earlier this year). But they're also introducing new security risks. When an agentic AI security breach happens, companies may be quick to fire employees and assign blame, but slower to identify and fix the systemic failures that enabled it.Forrester’s Predictions...

One of the coolest things about generative AI models — both large language models (LLMs) and diffusion-based image generators — is that they are "non-deterministic." That is, despite their reputation among some critics as being "fancy autocorrect," generative AI models actually generate their outputs by choosing from a distribution of the most probable next tokens (units of information) to fill out their response.Asking an LLM: "What is the capital of...

For many software developers using generative AI, vibe coding is a double-edged sword. The process delivers rapid prototypes but often leaves a trail of brittle, undocumented code that creates significant technical debt. A new open-source platform, Codev, addresses this by proposing a fundamental shift: treating the natural language conversation with an AI as part of the actual source code. Codev is based on SP(IDE)R, a framework designed to turn vibe-coding... Read more
