RAG architectures are good at one thing: surfacing semantically relevant documents. That's also where they stop.A framework called a decision context graph addresses that gap by giving agents structured memory, time-aware reasoning, and explicit decision logic. Rippletide, a startup in the Neo4j ecosystem, has built one. The key capability: agents that are non-regressive, able to freeze validated sequences of actions and compound on them over time.“The key point you want... Read more ›

GitHub confirmed on May 20 that a poisoned VS Code extension installed on an employee’s device gave attackers access to roughly 3,800 internal repositories at the Microsoft-owned code storage and authorship platform. The threat group TeamPCP, formally tracked by Google Threat Intelligence Group as UNC6780, claimed responsibility and is advertising the stolen repositories for sale starting at $50,000. GitHub’s assessment: the attacker’s claim is “directionally consistent” with the investigation so... Read more ›

Generative AI’s rapid transition from text-based chatbots to high-fidelity media—spanning images, video, spatial 3D, and audio—has exposed a glaring bottleneck in the modern tech stack: infrastructure. Rendering pixels in real-time requires a staggering amount of compute, and developers are increasingly struggling to manage fragmented GPU clusters just to keep their applications online.Enter fal, a generative media creation platform that has quietly become the connective tissue for 2.5 million developers ac Read more ›

The reason enterprises have been slow to connect AI agents to internal APIs and databases isn't the models — it's the credentials. In most production deployments, the agent carries authentication tokens with it as it executes tool calls, which means a compromised or misbehaving agent takes the keys with it.Anthropic is addressing that problem with two new capabilities for Claude Managed Agents: self-hosted sandboxes, which let teams run tool execution...

For a quarter century, the Google search box has been one of the most recognizable interfaces in computing: a thin white rectangle, a blinking cursor, a few typed words, and a list of blue links. On Tuesday, Google will formally retire that paradigm.At its annual I/O developer conference, Google announced a sweeping redesign of the search box itself — the literal text field where billions of queries begin every day...

Google on Tuesday unveiled Gemini Spark, a personal AI agent designed to work around the clock — drafting emails, assembling documents, monitoring inboxes, and eventually making purchases — even when a user's laptop is closed and their phone is locked.The announcement, made at Google I/O 2026, is the company's most ambitious attempt yet to transform its AI assistant from a tool that answers questions into one that autonomously completes tasks....

Google unveiled Gemini 3.5 Flash at its annual I/O developer conference on Tuesday, a new artificial intelligence model that the company says shatters what had become a seemingly iron law of the AI industry: that the smartest models must also be the slowest and most expensive to run.The model sits at the center of a sweeping set of announcements — from a video-generating "world model" called Gemini Omni to a...

Although it was already discovered by intrepid AI power users weeks ahead of the official unveiling today at Google's annual I/O developer conference, the company's new Gemini Omni model marks a significantly new paradigm in the wider AI and tech marketplace.That's because as its "omni" (from the Latin omne — meaning "all") prefix would suggest, this is Google's first truly native, multimodal model, that is "a model that can create...

Redis built its name as the caching layer that kept web applications from collapsing under load. The problem it is targeting now has the same structure but is harder to solve: production AI agents failing not because the models are wrong, but because the data underneath them is scattered, stale and structured for humans rather than machines. Retrieval pipelines built for single queries cannot absorb the volume agents generate.The gap... Read more ›

Four supply-chain incidents hit OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta in 50 days: three adversary-driven attacks and one self-inflicted packaging failure. None targeted the model, and all four exposed the same gap: release pipelines, dependency hooks, CI runners, and packaging gates that no system card, AISI evaluation, or Gray Swan red-team exercise has ever scoped.On May 11, 2026, a self-propagating worm called Mini Shai-Hulud published 84 malicious package versions across 42 @tanstack/*...

Enterprises building and deploying agents have a problem: it’s taking their engineers too long to find out that an agent made a mistake, and the loop has continued to perpetuate, especially without a human at every step. LangSmith, the monitoring and evaluation platform from LangChain, launched a new capability in public beta that could make that issue more manageable. LangSmith Engine automates the entire chain by detecting production failures, diagnosing... Read more ›

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has become the de facto standard for grounding large language models (LLMs) in private data. The standard architecture — chunking documents, embedding them into a vector database, and retrieving top-k results via cosine similarity — is effective for unstructured semantic search.However, for enterprise domains characterized by highly interconnected data (supply chain, financial compliance, fraud detection), vector-only RAG often fails. It captures similarity but misses st Read more ›

For AI systems to keep improving in knowledge work, they need either a reliable mechanism for autonomous self-improvement or human evaluators capable of catching errors and generating high-quality feedback. The industry has invested enormously in the first. It's giving almost no thought to what's happening to the second.I’d argue that we need to treat the human evaluation problem with just as much rigor and investment as we put into building...

Rather than replacing human support... Read more ›

One of the key challenges of current multi-agent AI systems is that they communicate by generating and sharing text sequences, which introduces latency, drives up token costs, and makes it difficult to train the entire system as a cohesive unit. To overcome this challenge, researchers at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Stanford University developed RecursiveMAS, a framework that enables agents to collaborate and transmit information through embedding space instead of...

New VB Pulse data shows Microsoft and OpenAI leading enterprise agent orchestration, but Anthropic’s first measurable foothold points to a larger fight over who controls the infrastructure where AI agents run.For the last two years, the enterprise AI race has mostly been framed as a model war: OpenAI’s GPT series versus Anthropic’s Claude versus Google’s Gemini, with smaller and open-source alternatives also coming in from the U.S. and China. But...
