Microsoft today launched MAI-Image-2-Efficient, a lower-cost, higher-speed variant of its flagship text-to-image model that the company says delivers production-ready quality at nearly half the price. The release, available immediately in Microsoft Foundry and MAI Playground with no waitlist, marks the fastest turnaround yet from Microsoft's in-house AI superintelligence team — and the clearest signal that Redmond is serious about building a self-sufficient AI stack that doesn't depend on OpenAI.The new mod

The age-old question - the Pro or the non-Pro? This time it's either the Honor 600 or the Honor 600 Pro. The latter brings a handful of useful features and hardware upgrades over the regular Honor 600, but also adds another €300 to the bill. Sure, you get a more powerful chipset and a telephoto camera, but the vanilla 600 gets you a long way at a much lower cost.... Read more ›

Enterprises building and deploying agents have a problem: it’s taking their engineers too long to find out that an agent made a mistake, and the loop has continued to perpetuate, especially without a human at every step. LangSmith, the monitoring and evaluation platform from LangChain, launched a new capability in public beta that could make that issue more manageable. LangSmith Engine automates the entire chain by detecting production failures, diagnosing... Read more ›

Four supply-chain incidents hit OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta in 50 days: three adversary-driven attacks and one self-inflicted packaging failure. None targeted the model, and all four exposed the same gap: release pipelines, dependency hooks, CI runners, and packaging gates that no system card, AISI evaluation, or Gray Swan red-team exercise has ever scoped.On May 11, 2026, a self-propagating worm called Mini Shai-Hulud published 84 malicious package versions across 42 @tanstack/*...

Redis built its name as the caching layer that kept web applications from collapsing under load. The problem it is targeting now has the same structure but is harder to solve: production AI agents failing not because the models are wrong, but because the data underneath them is scattered, stale and structured for humans rather than machines. Retrieval pipelines built for single queries cannot absorb the volume agents generate.The gap... Read more ›

Google unveiled Gemini 3.5 Flash at its annual I/O developer conference on Tuesday, a new artificial intelligence model that the company says shatters what had become a seemingly iron law of the AI industry: that the smartest models must also be the slowest and most expensive to run.The model sits at the center of a sweeping set of announcements — from a video-generating "world model" called Gemini Omni to a...

For a quarter century, the Google search box has been one of the most recognizable interfaces in computing: a thin white rectangle, a blinking cursor, a few typed words, and a list of blue links. On Tuesday, Google will formally retire that paradigm.At its annual I/O developer conference, Google announced a sweeping redesign of the search box itself — the literal text field where billions of queries begin every day...

The reason enterprises have been slow to connect AI agents to internal APIs and databases isn't the models — it's the credentials. In most production deployments, the agent carries authentication tokens with it as it executes tool calls, which means a compromised or misbehaving agent takes the keys with it.Anthropic is addressing that problem with two new capabilities for Claude Managed Agents: self-hosted sandboxes, which let teams run tool execution...

Generative AI’s rapid transition from text-based chatbots to high-fidelity media—spanning images, video, spatial 3D, and audio—has exposed a glaring bottleneck in the modern tech stack: infrastructure. Rendering pixels in real-time requires a staggering amount of compute, and developers are increasingly struggling to manage fragmented GPU clusters just to keep their applications online.Enter fal, a generative media creation platform that has quietly become the connective tissue for 2.5 million developers ac Read more ›
