Microsoft last week took Agent 365, its management platform for AI agents, out of preview and into general availability — a move that signals the software giant believes the governance challenge around autonomous AI is no longer theoretical but operational and urgent.The product, first announced at Microsoft's Ignite conference in November, positions itself as a unified control plane that lets enterprise IT and security teams observe, govern, and secure AI agents wherever they run: inside Microsoft's own ec

Вообще, я один из тех людей, кто постоянно ходит с десятком гаджетов при себе. Пара смарт-часов, два телефона (основной смартфон и iPhone 3GS/Nokia 8800 в качестве плеера), наушники - это неотъемлемый элемент для каждой прогулке на свежем воздухе. Однако недавно я узнал про существование бюджетных смарт-очков от Blackview, которые предоставляют весьма солидный функционал и в отличии от Meta Ray-ban'ов стоят совсем недорого.В сегодняшнем обзоре я расскажу об опыте использования таких...

Soaring demand for the iPhone 17 lineup seems to have finally come to an end, amid rumors that Apple has finally lowered expectations and reduced production plans by 15%. In a pair of posts on Weibo, the leaker known as "Fixed Focus Digital" said the claim comes from reliable sources within the supply chain. The leaker said that the iPhone 17's current outlook "won't hold for long," adding that "major... Read more ›

In many ways, Melat Kiros epitomizes the winds of change sweeping over the Democratic Party. Kiros is a 29-year-old political newcomer who is disillusioned with the system, who calls ending aid to Israel “the moral question of our time,” and who is backed by the Democratic Socialists of America. And on Tuesday, she handily defeated […] Read more ›

Software developers are starting to combine the two most successful uses of large language models: coding and customer support.Specifically, they’re using AI to automate the process of turning customer complaints about software issues or feature requests into new code. Previously, that could be a long and tedious process, which involved sending customer support tickets to a company’s support team, directing those issues to the relevant engineer, and coding up and...

OpenAI and Broadcom this morning unveiled their first custom AI accelerator chip named "Jalapeño," positioning it is as a purpose-built processor for large language model (LLM) inference, rather than the more general GPUs offered by the likes of Nvidia or AMD. According to its creators, Jalapeño is designed to support workloads behind ChatGPT, Codex, the API and future agentic products, though notably, both OpenAI's and Broadcom's news releases position it...

Customer expectations have shifted from simple, fast conversational interactions to complex agentic AI-powered tasks that legacy IT architectures simply can’t handle. To address this, Intuit made the bold decision to overhaul its technical infrastructure for its business platform. The company moved away from its multi-agent setup, which prioritized broad capabilities, to a granular, skill-and-tool-based architecture while embedding human experts directly into the workflow alongside AI. This shift involved d Read more ›

AI agents are increasingly proficient at executing business tasks autonomously, but IT leaders are cautious about granting permissions to access enterprise systems. Part of the challenge lies in how AI reliability is measured. Industry standards often rely on EVAL scores, which provide a static snapshot of performance rather than a measure of overall reliability. These metrics can fail to capture predictability across prompts, environments, and input types, said Bryan Silverthorn,... Read more ›

Shopify built an LLM proxy that gives every engineer access to multiple AI providers — with automatic failover when any one of them goes down, changes, or disappears. When Claude Fable 5 shut down, Shopify's engineers didn't go into panic mode. The proxy shifted them to Claude Opus or GPT 5.5 automatically, without interrupting their workflows. “Fable looks amazing; we used it of course,” Farhan Thawar, Shopify’s head of engineering,...

Drug discovery is notoriously inefficient. Pharmaceutical projects span years, moving from one specialized human team to the next through disconnected workflows that result in knowledge loss during each handoff. A shocking 90% to 95% of drug discovery projects reportedly fail — one of the highest failure rates of any industry. A single successful drug can take over a dozen years and up to $1 billion from initial discovery to patient... Read more ›

As enterprise AI agents take on increasingly complex, long-horizon tasks, their performance is often restricted by their harness, the software scaffolding that connects the backbone LLM to its environment. Currently, harnesses are largely static and hand-crafted. Improving them is largely manual and they do not automatically improve based on the execution data they collect from their environment.To address this engineering bottleneck, researchers at Xiaomi introduced HarnessX, a framework that treats...

Alibaba's Qwen team released Qwen-AgentWorld on Tuesday — two models trained not to act inside agent environments, but to predict what those environments return. The release covers seven domains under a single architecture: MCP, Search, Terminal, Software Engineering, Android, Web, and OS. The release extends Alibaba's recent push into autonomous agents. Qwen3.7-Max, released in May, was built around a 35-hour autonomous execution capability. That shift targets a ceiling teams training... Read more ›

Mistral AI on Tuesday released OCR 4, a document intelligence model that moves beyond raw text extraction to return structured representations of entire documents — complete with bounding boxes, block-type classification, and per-word confidence scores. The release marks Mistral's fourth generation of optical character recognition technology in roughly 15 months and lands at a moment when the company's pitch for European AI sovereignty has never been more commercially relevant.The model...

AI agent orchestration platforms are popping up like weeds these days, but London-based AI transformation startup Mindstone's Rebel might be among the most promising I've come across.
