Agent skills have become an important part of real-world AI applications, providing a mechanism — a set of instructions saved in a folder of text-based markdown (.md) files, usually — for models to adapt to specific enterprise use cases and complex workflows. However, optimizing these skills is a slow process and faulty process, as they cannot be trained in the same way as the parameters of the underlying AI model.... Read more ›

I have tested more portable MIDI controllers than I can keep track of, and I will tell you right now: 37 keys is the ideal size. While Arturia's 25-key MiniLab MK3 is a solid controller that easily fits in a backpack, it feels a bit claustrophobic. The new $149 MiniLab 37 adds another octave, giving […] Read more ›

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma and Chief Content Officer Matt Booty told staff that Xbox's current economics "cannot continue," citing more than $20 billion in spending over five years, declining revenue outside Activision Blizzard King, console supply constraints tied to RAMaggedon, and an overextended studio portfolio. The memo stops short of announcing layoffs, but a Bloomberg report says substantial Xbox cuts are expected after Microsoft's fiscal year ends on June 30.... Read more ›

Apple shares have lost roughly $25 per share this week following the company's WWDC 2026 keynote, though a wave of upward analyst price target revisions suggests Wall Street's longer-term view of Apple remains constructive. According to Tech Times, AAPL hit an all-time intraday high of around $317.40 on June 8 during the unveiling of Siri AI, before reversing to close at $301.54, down 1.89%. The slide continued over the following... Read more ›

Anthropic co-founder and CEO Dario Amodei said it was coming, but it still feels like a milestone: More than 80% of the code merged into Anthropic’s production codebase in May wasn't authored by humans, but by its own AI model, Claude, according to a new report shared by the record-breaking AI startup today.This transformation has triggered an 8x increase in the volume of code shipped per engineer per quarter compared...

Meta's AI support agent bound recovery emails to accounts for whoever asked, and SOCs never saw an alert. An authorized agent writes a log of legitimate transactions, so nothing in the detection stack fired. Attackers asked the bot to make the change, took the one-time code it sent, and ran the password reset, 404 Media reported.No malware, no stolen credentials, and no prompt injection in the sense most security teams...

When someone on a team corrects an AI agent — better prompts, better feedback, better context — that improvement disappears the moment a colleague opens the same tool. The correction doesn't transfer, and the next person starts from zero.The problem compounds in multi-agent workflows, where teams expect agents to share context across users and tasks. Without a shared memory layer, every team member effectively trains a different version of the... Read more ›

Agentic AI is now a core part of the engineering process, driving massive execution leverage and helping us generate more code than ever before. Yet, a difficult question I’ve increasingly heard from business leaders is: if we’re shipping code faster than ever, why aren’t our products improving at the same rate?The reason is that writing code was never the rate limiter. Defining the right requirements, integrating with complex systems, and... Read more ›

In Q1 2026, VentureBeat's Pulse Research surfaced the “Governance Mirage”: the gap between the governance org charts enterprises had drawn and the control layers they had actually built. Forty-three percent said a central team owned AI governance; 23% couldn't agree on who owned it at all; and 31% named vendor opacity as the single biggest obstacle.This new wave of research asks the next question: Once you've admitted the governance problem,...
