Today, Sony announced that it will no longer produce discs for PlayStation games starting in January 2028, citing "consumer preferences" for the reason it's going all-in on digital. The reaction, unsurprisingly, has been pretty bad across the internet and the indsutry at large. Read more Read more ›

Безопасный AI-мониторинг Oracle в закрытом контуре с использованием Python, Ollama и V$WAITCLASSMETRIC Введение В существующей системе мониторинга Oracle уже использовалось разработанное мной решение, которое с интервалом в 1 минуту собирало метрики производительности из представления V$WAITCLASSMETRIC и отображало их в Grafana. Графики наглядно показывали изменения времени ожиданий в классах User I/O, Commit, Concurrency и других, однако они показывали лишь сам факт изменения нагрузки, не объясн Read more ›

iOS 27 adds a new copy-and-paste feature to the iPhone's keyboard, enabling convenient one-tap pasting for text, photos, links, and more. For example, if you copy a link in Safari and move to the Notes app, a "paste from Safari" option with the link will automatically appear above the keyboard. Tapping on the shortcut adds the link to the note. Or if you copy a photo in the Reddit app... Read more ›

Here is what is quietly at stake in a long marriage. It is rarely the big, dramatic blowup that ends things. More often it is the slow accumulation of small fights that were never really about what they seemed to be about, the kind that pile up year after year until two people stop reaching ...

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. That's because the system, which officially launched this week, is a local-first, agentic AI operating system distributed under a "Fair Source" license, allowing teams of under 100 users to freely adopt and customize it to suit their needs, while those organizations with more...

OpenAI has made a significant update to its most widely used language model, GPT-5.5 Instant, which is the default in the free version of ChatGPT. The company announced the upgraded version of GPT-5.5 Instant yesterday on X, calling it "much more fun to talk to" and saying it is "better at understanding the intent behind a question and adapting its response accordingly," as well as offering improvements in shopping results,...
