As models get smarter and more capable, the "harnesses" around them must also evolve.
This "harness engineering" is an extension of context engineering, says LangChain co-founder and CEO Harrison Chase in a new VentureBeat Beyond the Pilot podcast episode. Whereas traditional AI harnesses have tended to constrain models from running in loops and calling tools, harnesses specifically built for AI agents allow them to interact more independently and effectively perform long-running tasks.

Longtime Slashdot reader UnknowingFool writes: Security researcher Tom Joran Sonstebyseter Ronning has found that Microsoft Edge stores passwords in plaintext in RAM. After creating a password and storing it using Edge's password manager, Ronning found that he could dump the RAM and recover his password which was stored in plaintext. Part of the issue is Edge loads all passwords to all sites upon a single verification check, even if the... Read more ›

В телеграме завирусился пост: якобы кто-то “дообучил Qwen 3.5 до уровня Claude 4.6 Opus и убрал цензуру через Heretic”. Я открыл карточку модели на HuggingFace и провёл вечер, разбираясь, что под капотом. Спойлер: там много интересной техники, но к Claude эта модель имеет такое же отношение, как кроссовки “Adibas” к Adidas. Разбираю distillation, depth upscaling и abliteration без маркетинговой обёртки. Читать далее Read more ›

Google is updating its AI search results to incorporate a "preview of perspectives" sourced from public online discussions and social media. The results sourced from places like Reddit and online forums are sometimes labeled as "Expert Advice," per Google's screenshots. Google says that the section could have different titles like "Community Perspectives" depending on the query and the response, so not all responses will have the Expert Advice labeling. The...

Presented by NutanixAs enterprises move from AI experimentation into production deployment, the primary cost driver has shifted away from foundation model training and toward the infrastructure required to run thousands of concurrent inference workloads at scale, with agentic AI as the accelerant. Where early enterprise AI projects involved a handful of large, scheduled training jobs, production agentic environments require continuous support for short-lived, unpredictable requests that consume GPU, network Read more ›

On March 30, BeyondTrust proved that a crafted GitHub branch name could steal Codex’s OAuth token in cleartext. OpenAI classified it Critical P1. Two days later, Anthropic’s Claude Code source code spilled onto the public npm registry, and within hours, Adversa found Claude Code silently ignored its own deny rules once a command exceeded 50 subcommands. These were not isolated bugs. They were the latest in a nine-month run: six... Read more ›

One of the key challenges of building effective AI agents is teaching them to choose between using external tools or relying on their internal knowledge. But large language models are often trained to blindly invoke tools, which causes latency bottlenecks, unnecessary API costs, and degraded reasoning caused by environmental noise. To overcome this challenge, researchers at Alibaba introduced Hierarchical Decoupled Policy Optimization (HDPO), a reinforcement learning framework that trains agents... Read more ›

Presented by TeamViewerEnterprise technology failures are largely invisible. Research from TeamViewer, based on a global survey of 4,200 managers and employees, finds that the majority of digital dysfunction never reaches the IT help desk. Employees work around slow applications, failed logins, and intermittent glitches rather than reporting them, leaving organizations without an accurate picture of how their technology is performing. The cumulative cost is significant: employees lose an average of... Read more ›

The scaffolding layer that developers once needed to ship LLM applications — indexing layers, query engines, retrieval pipelines, carefully orchestrated agent loops — is collapsing. And according to Jerry Liu, co-founder and CEO of LlamaIndex, that's not a problem. It's the point.“As a result, there's less of a need for frameworks to actually help users compose these deterministic workflows in a light and shallow manner,” Jerry Liu, co-founder and CEO...
