Among the many Chinese AI companies and laboratories vying for market share and attention (no pun intended) on the global marketplace, MiniMax stands out for its commitment to providing frontier-level intelligence across a range of modalities, including text, coding, and video (through its Hailuo model series) — often under permissive, enterprise-friendly, standard open source licenses. Now, MiniMax is again raising the eyebrows of AI power users and developers around the world by releasing a new, in-depth.

On Sunday, a team of nine researchers at Sina Weibo — the Chinese social media giant better known for its microblogging platform than for cutting-edge artificial intelligence — quietly posted a 14-page technical report to arXiv that sent shockwaves through the AI research community. Their claim: a language model with just 3 billion parameters can match or exceed the reasoning performance of flagship systems from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, Anthropic, and... Read more ›

Yesterday, reports claimed that the foldable iPhone Ultra will be delayed until early next year – however, leakster Fixed Focus Digital believes these reports are false. According to FFD’s sources, production capacity is limited, but that doesn’t mean that the announcement has been delayed. Instead, the Ultra will be unveiled alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models in September as originally planned. The actual release of the foldable may be delayed,... Read more ›

Investing in AI really is not for the faint of heart. Leaving aside all the worries about risks of huge investments in data centers and the uncertainties about demand, there’s also the unpredictable government moves that can upend things. Case in point: the Trump administration’s warnings to Anthropic over the weekend that no foreigners, including foreign employees of Anthropic, could access its latest AI models without permission.While that warning is...

OpenAI burned through $3.7 billion in the first quarter, more than half its $5.7 billion in revenue, according to documents the company shared with shareholders. Both cash burn and revenue tripled from the same period the previous year, signaling how even with strong AI demand, making money from AI continues to be challenging. The company ended the quarter with more than $73 billion in cash and marketable securities, compared with... Read more ›

Enterprise AI teams face a dilemma: The best models today might not be the best models a year from now. MassMutual's answer is to stop making long-term bets — and build infrastructure that can swap models as the market shifts.“The world of AI today is extremely dynamic,” Sears Merritt, MassMutual CIO, explained in a new VB Beyond the Pilot podcast. “We wanted to make sure we were positioned to ride...

In a sweeping new essay titled "Policy on the AI Exponential," Anthropic co-founder and CEO Dario Amodei publicly calls for new government regulations governing the release of powerful AI models — specifically comparing AI industry to commercial aviation, which follows regulations enforced by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) — arguing that this is necessary to maintain public safety as AI capabilities and potential misuses grow.Alongside the essay, Anthropic released...

Training a foundation LLM from scratch costs millions and requires internet-scale data — which is why most enterprises don't bother. Sapient thinks it has a cheaper path.To overcome this brute-force scaling dogma, researchers at Sapient developed HRM-Text, which replaces standard Transformers with a highly sample-efficient Hierarchical Recurrent Model (HRM), an architecture they first introduced last year.HRM decouples computation into slow-evolving strategic and fast-evolving execution layers. Instead of b Read more ›

Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley's Center for Responsible, Decentralized Intelligence (RDI), alongside an advisory committee of over 300 domain experts, have launched Agents’ Last Exam (ALE)—a grueling new benchmark built to measure whether artificial intelligence can actually execute economically valuable, long-horizon professional workflows.In a shocking upset, OpenAI’s GPT-5.5 from April, operating through the Codex harness, secured the absolute top spot on the new ALE Leaderboard.

Presented by Capital One Enterprises aren’t struggling to experiment with AI; they’re struggling to make it work in the real world. Moving from promising prototypes to reliable, production-scale systems is where most efforts stall.In my role within Capital One’s AI Foundations organization, I’ve seen firsthand that successful AI implementation isn’t just about adopting the latest models or tools. It requires a disciplined R&D approach that connects foundational research to real-world... Read more ›

GenAI image generators like Stable Diffusion do not draw a picture pixel by pixel from left to right. They start with noise and iteratively refine the entire image in parallel until it converges, in a process known as diffusion. For years, applying that same principle to text generation had remained out of reach at scale.Standard language models work like a typewriter: one token at a time, left to right, with... Read more ›

Presented by F5Enterprise AI teams have spent years solving for compute, securing GPU allocations, negotiating cloud capacity, and benchmarking training throughput. The assumption embedded in that work is that the path between storage and compute will keep up. In production, that assumption increasingly does not hold. Real traffic introduces latency spikes, network jitter, and node degradation that controlled benchmarks fail to capture, resulting in pipelines that perform well in the... Read more ›

Context windows are becoming a computational bottleneck. The longer an agent runs, the more tokens accumulate from retrieved documents, reasoning traces and conversation history, and the more memory and compute that growing context demands. Most existing solutions either degrade model accuracy, require the full context to load before compression begins, or produce memory savings that don't translate into real speedups in standard serving infrastructure.A research team from NYU, Columbia, Princeton,...

Xiaomi's MiMo AI team has open-sourced MiMo Code V0.1.0, a terminal-native AI coding assistant that the Chinese electronics giant says outperforms Anthropic's Claude Code on key agentic coding benchmarks, especially on long-horizon, multi-step tasks (200+ steps) — at least, according to its own internal beta release and survey of 576 developers. It's also bundling limited-time free access to MiMo-V2.5, its multimodal flagship model with a million-token context window, requiring no... Read more ›

Agent skills have become an important part of real-world AI applications, providing a mechanism — a set of instructions saved in a folder of text-based markdown (.md) files, usually — for models to adapt to specific enterprise use cases and complex workflows. However, optimizing these skills is a slow process and faulty process, as they cannot be trained in the same way as the parameters of the underlying AI model.... Read more ›
