Anthropic has confirmed the implementation of strict new technical safeguards preventing third-party applications from spoofing its official coding client, Claude Code, in order to access the underlying Claude AI models for more favorably pricing and limits — a move that has disrupted workflows for users of popular open source coding agent OpenCode. Simultaneously but separately, it has restricted usage of its AI models by rival labs including xAI (through the integrated developer environment Cursor) to tra

The FCC approved SpaceX's plan to launch an additional 7,500 Gen2 Starlink satellites on Friday. That brings the total number of satellites the company will have in orbit to around 15,000 worldwide. As part of the approval, the government is also waiving previous requirements that prevented overlapping coverage and enhanced capacity. SpaceX originally sought approval […] Read more ›

Greetings from the year of Linux on my desktop. In November, I got fed up and said screw it, I'm installing Linux. Since that article was published, I have dealt with one minor catastrophe after another. None of that has anything to do with Linux, mind you. It just meant I didn't install it on […] Read more ›

In the fast-moving world of AI development, it is rare for a tool to be described as both "a meme" and AGI, artificial generalized intelligence, the "holy grail" of a model or system that can reliably outperform humans on economically valuable work. Yet, that is exactly where the Ralph Wiggum plugin for Claude Code now sits. Named after the infamously high-pitched, hapless yet persistent character on "The Simpsons," this newish... Read more ›

Joining the ranks of a growing number of smaller, powerful reasoning models is MiroThinker 1.5 from MiroMind, with just 30 billion parameters, compared to the hundreds of billions or trillions used by leading foundation large language models (LLMs).But MiroThinker 1.5 stands out among these smaller reasoners for one major reason: it offers agentic research capabilities rivaling trillion-parameter competitors like Kimi K2 and DeepSeek, at a fraction of the inference cost.The...

For decades, we have adapted to software. We learned shell commands, memorized HTTP method names and wired together SDKs. Each interface assumed we would speak its language. In the 1980s, we typed 'grep', 'ssh' and 'ls' into a shell; by the mid-2000s, we were invoking REST endpoints like GET /users; by the 2010s, we imported SDKs (client.orders.list()) so we didn’t have to think about HTTP. But underlying each of those... Read more ›

Nous Research, the open-source artificial intelligence startup backed by crypto venture firm Paradigm, released a new competitive programming model on Monday that it says matches or exceeds several larger proprietary systems — trained in just four days using 48 of Nvidia's latest B200 graphics processors.The model, called NousCoder-14B, is another entry in a crowded field of AI coding assistants, but arrives at a particularly charged moment: Claude Code, the agentic...

A new study from researchers at Stanford University and Nvidia proposes a way for AI models to keep learning after deployment — without increasing inference costs. For enterprise agents that have to digest long docs, tickets, and logs, this is a bid to get “long memory” without paying attention costs that grow with context length.The approach, called “End-to-End Test-Time Training” (TTT-E2E), reframes language modeling as a continual learning problem: Instead...

The arms race to build smarter AI models has a measurement problem: the tests used to rank them are becoming obsolete almost as quickly as the models improve. On Monday, Artificial Analysis, an independent AI benchmarking organization whose rankings are closely watched by developers and enterprise buyers, released a major overhaul to its Intelligence Index that fundamentally changes how the industry measures AI progress.The new Intelligence Index v4.0 incorporates 10...

Presented by SAPSAP consulting projects today involve a vast amount of documentation, multiple stakeholders, and compressed timelines, which often require manual knowledge retrieval from online SAP documentation. At the same time, cloud ERP programs now demand faster design cycles, continuous enhancements rather than big-bang rollouts, and near-real-time decision-making. Joule for Consultants, SAP's conversational AI solution, was designed to help meet these expectations and support consultants throughout t Read more ›

Enterprise security teams are losing ground to AI-enabled attacks — not because defenses are weak, but because the threat model has shifted. As AI agents move into production, attackers are exploiting runtime weaknesses where breakout times are measured in seconds, patch windows in hours, and traditional security has little visibility or control.CrowdStrike's 2025 Global Threat Report documents breakout times as fast as 51 seconds. Attackers are moving from initial access... Read more ›
