Processing 200,000 tokens through a large language model is expensive and slow: the longer the context, the faster the costs spiral. Researchers at Tsinghua University and Z.ai have built a technique called IndexCache that cuts up to 75% of the redundant computation in sparse attention models, delivering up to 1.82x faster time-to-first-token and 1.48x faster generation throughput at that context length.The technique applies to models using the DeepSeek Sparse Attention architecture, including the latest De

You have friends. You have dinner plans. Your calendar has things on it. People text you. You show up to gatherings and people seem glad you came. On paper, you’re connected. On paper, you should be fine. And yet there’s this feeling. It shows up at the dinner table, mid-laugh, while everyone around you is ... Read more Read more ›

Bluesky is once again having a wobble. The platform said some of its systems are down and that it’s “investigating an incident with service in one of our reginos” (that’s Bluesky’s typo, not mine). The issue appears to have started at 1:42AM ET and was still persisting as of 11AM when this story was originally published. Since then, the site has been experiencing intermitent interuptions, including at times to its... Read more ›

The company raised its full-year growth rate to above 30%. According to TSMC CEO C.C. Wei, “AI-related demand continues to be extremely robust.” Wei said he based that assessment both on comments from TSMC’s customers—it makes... Read more ›

Customers are more loyal to Apple than ever, according to a smartphone loyalty survey conducted by phone trade-in site SellCell. 96.4% of customers surveyed said they planned to stick with an iPhone for their next upgrade, and 3.6% said they would choose a different brand. That's up from 91.9% in SellCell's 2021 survey and 90.5% in 2019. Android users were less loyal to their brand, and are almost 4x more... Read more ›

Apple hardware engineering chief John Ternus and marketing chief Greg Joswiak recently did an interview with Tom's Guide, where they shared new insights into the MacBook Neo, AI, and spatial computing. Ternus and Joswiak made it clear that the MacBook Neo isn't your average low-cost device. Apple doesn't typically put a lot of focus on its more affordable devices, but marketing for the Neo has been expansive, and that's because... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Two years ago, Microsoft launched its first wave of "Copilot+" Windows PCs with a handful of exclusive features that could take advantage of the neural processing unit (NPU) hardware being built into newer laptop processors. These NPUs could enable AI and machine learning features that could run locally rather than in someone's cloud, theoretically enhancing security and privacy. One of the... Read more ›

When the One Big Beautiful Bill arrived as a 900-page unstructured document — with no standardized schema, no published IRS forms, and a hard shipping deadline — Intuit's TurboTax team had a question: could AI compress a months-long implementation into days without sacrificing accuracy?What they built to do it is less a tax story than a template, a workflow combining commercial AI tools, a proprietary domain-specific language and a custom...

Four separate RSAC 2026 keynotes arrived at the same conclusion without coordinating. Microsoft's Vasu Jakkal told attendees that zero trust must extend to AI. Cisco's Jeetu Patel called for a shift from access control to action control, saying in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat that agents behave "more like teenagers, supremely intelligent, but with no fear of consequence." CrowdStrike's George Kurtz identified AI governance as the biggest gap in enterprise... Read more ›

For the last 18 months, the CISO playbook for generative AI has been relatively simple: Control the browser.Security teams tightened cloud access security broker (CASB) policies, blocked or monitored traffic to well-known AI endpoints, and routed usage through sanctioned gateways. The operating model was clear: If sensitive data leaves the network for an external API call, we can observe it, log it, and stop it. But that model is starting... Read more ›

Data drift happens when the statistical properties of a machine learning (ML) model's input data change over time, eventually rendering its predictions less accurate. Cybersecurity professionals who rely on ML for tasks like malware detection and network threat analysis find that undetected data drift can create vulnerabilities. A model trained on old attack patterns may fail to see today's sophisticated threats. Recognizing the early signs of data drift is the... Read more ›

But moving from impressive pilots to production‑grade impact requires more than clever prompts or proof‑of‑concept demos. It takes clear goals, data‑driven workflows, and an enterprise platform that balances autonomy, governance, observability, and flexibility with hard guardrails from day one.

A growing number of developers and AI power users are taking to social media to accuse Anthropic of degrading the performance of Claude Opus 4.6 and Claude Code — intentionally or as an outcome of compute limits — arguing that the company’s flagship coding model feels less capable, less reliable and more wasteful with tokens than it did just weeks ago. The complaints have spread quickly on Github, X and... Read more ›

Presented by AWSAutonomous agents are compressing software delivery timelines from weeks to days. The enterprises that scale agents safely will be the ones that build using spec-driven development.There’s a moment in every technology shift where the early adopters stop being outliers and start being the baseline.

The software industry is racing to write code with artificial intelligence. It is struggling, badly, to make sure that code holds up once it ships.A survey of 200 senior site-reliability and DevOps leaders at large enterprises across the United States, United Kingdom, and European Union paints a stark picture of the hidden costs embedded in the AI coding boom. According to Lightrun's 2026 State of AI-Powered Engineering Report, shared exclusively... Read more ›

Data teams building AI agents keep running into the same failure mode. Questions that require joining structured data with unstructured content, sales figures alongside customer reviews or citation counts alongside academic papers, break single-turn RAG systems. New research from Databricks puts a number on that failure gap. The company's AI research team tested a multi-step agentic approach against state-of-the-art single-turn RAG baselines across nine enterprise knowledge tasks and reported gains... Read more ›
