VentureBeat 1 place · today 20:32 EDT

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 DeepSeek that are hundreds of times larger.The model, ca

Динамический полиморфизм против std::variant с указателями: Разрушаем мифы о скорости std::visit (v.2*)

В экосистеме современного C++ прочно укоренилось мнение: классический динамический полиморфизм через виртуальные функции (vtable) и наследование — это устаревший, медленный и недружелюбный к кэшу процессора механизм. В качестве «серебряной пули» модно предлагать связку std::variant и std::visit. Если вы спросите любого виртуального умника (ИИ) он до последнего будет убеждать вас что std::variant и std::visit всегда(!) лучше чем виртуальные функции, даже не сомневайтесь. Проблема в том что с таким отношением Read more

Depression appears to change what children notice in the faces around them, but the effect depends on family history. Kids with a higher inherited risk became more focused on sadness, while lower-risk children lost some of their natural attention to happy expressions. Read more

Diabetes and dementia appear to be closely intertwined, with each condition potentially influencing the other. Problems with insulin and glucose can affect the brain’s energy supply, increase inflammation, and damage blood vessels linked to memory loss. Researchers are also finding that some popular diabetes medications may lower dementia risk. These discoveries are opening new possibilities for protecting brain health as people age. Read more

Commodore announces Callback 8020, a phone "between dumb and smart"

Commodore is making a phone that isn't a full-on smartphone, nor is it a dumbphone. It straddles the line in a very obviously nostalgia-baiting fashion. Before we talk about the new Commodore Callback 8020, let's get something out of the way first. Commodore International Corporation (CIC), which now owns the brand, was established last year by Christian Simpson, a tech YouTuber who is the CEO. He's brought on some ex-employees... Read more

PostgreSQL 19 Beta: неблокирующий REPACK — перепаковка раздутых таблиц без окна простоя (и графовые запросы в придачу)

4 июня 2026 вышла PostgreSQL 19 Beta 1. Все пишут про графовые запросы SQL/PGQ, но главная операционная новость в другом: в ядро завезли команду REPACK с неблокирующей опцией CONCURRENTLY — перепаковку раздутых таблиц без ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock и без внешнего pg_repack.

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.

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.

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,...
