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 to balance.

Предсказывать внешность ребенка по фотографии родителей - аттракцион старый как мир. Помните убогие флеш-сайты из нулевых, которые просто брали овал лица мамы, топорно накладывали поверх глаза папы с прозрачностью 50% и выдавали пугающего кадавра? В 2026 году технологии ушли от банального «склеивания скальпов». Современные генеративные модели работают с эмбеддингами - они переводят уникальные черты лица в многомерные векторы, смешивают их в латентном пространстве диффузионных моделей и декодируют в абсолютн Read more ›

BYD plans to install 3,000 ultra-fast "Flash Chargers" across Europe by the end of 2027, with the first stations already appearing in Germany and the UK. The Verge reports: At an estimated cost of 580,000 euros (about $670,000) per charger according to the Financial Times, that would mean a total spend of roughly $2 billion to install the network. The 1,500kW charging stations are significantly more powerful than Tesla's 500kW... Read more ›

Шоколадный шелк до лопаток, который в зеркале превратился в общипанное каре цвета ржавой кастрюли. Знакомо? Каждая первая хоть раз выползала из салона красоты с фальшивой улыбкой, оставляя чаевые дрожащей рукой, а потом ревела в машине под Адель. Потому что мастер «так видит», а у вас форма лица вообще-то круглая, а не как у той модели из Pinterest. Читать далее 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 ›

Microsoft used its Build 2026 conference this week to push a clear message: agents are rapidly moving into production throughout enterprise systems, and the winning platform will be the one that gives them reliable context, governance, identity, memory — and secure access to enterprise data.

For three years, Microsoft's artificial intelligence story has been inseparable from OpenAI. The partnership — cemented by a cumulative investment exceeding $13 billion — gave Microsoft early access to the most advanced AI models on the planet, catapulting its Copilot products into the enterprise mainstream and adding hundreds of billions of dollars to its market capitalization. To the outside world, Microsoft's AI strategy was OpenAI.Mustafa Suleyman wants to change that... 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,...
