By now, fellow agent builder, you’ve probably heard that open-source models have caught up to the proprietary ones from Google, Anthropic, OpenAI, and the like. But, here’s something you may have missed: teams are actually moving away from closed-source APIs to...

Designing a browser handoff means separating permission, local execution, and effects that a local scheduler cannot undo. Imagine a browser agent clicking Save in an administration interface. Before the confirmation arrives, its permission to control the browser...

For a while, my workflow for building ML applications with coding agents looked something like this: Write a prompt. Wait for the agent to make changes. Open the diff. Read the code. Try to understand what changed. Run it. Repeat. At the beginning, this worked...

I spent a morning connecting a session-recording tool to a product search engine I run, expecting to learn something about user behaviour. Instead it handed me a list of JavaScript errors, and every single one turned out to be a bug that had been in production for...

Twenty years ago, most of the web ran in the clear. Anyone on the path could read the page, and nobody could prove which server they were talking to. The fix was not a law and not a detector. It was a protocol with a trust layer around it, and today a padlock in the...

Most of what breaks AI systems in production has nothing to do with the model.I spend a good chunk of my job reviewing code: production systems and open-source contributions as an engineer, plus the code behind systems and software papers as an academic peer reviewer....

I built a movie recommender for people who can't describe their own taste, a dead feature taught me a lot about dense vector spaces. It is often difficult for people (me) to say what films they really like when asked. It's not a malicious lie, but something that is...

You have a weekend, maybe two. You have an idea that works on Solana. And now Colosseum has told you that idea could also compete for prize money on Ethereum, Hyperliquid, Base, Arbitrum, Robinhood Chain and more, if you can get it there in time.That's the actual...

AI researchers are quitting, labs are talking about slowing down, governments are worried about China, and everyone has an incentive to keep accelerating anyway. Maybe we have been looking at the AI alignment problem one layer too low. We keep asking whether we can...

1. What is your company in 2–5 words? Human expertise, on demand. 2. Why is now the time for your company to exist? Trust is the scarce resource online right now. Anyone can claim expertise, and AI has made generic advice free. ExpertEase exists to make trusted human...

Working with Cursor can feel a little like having a whole engineering team sitting next to you. You can ask it to explore a codebase, write a feature, create tests, fix bugs, and connect different parts of an application. It can even break larger tasks into agents,...

Overviewgrok-voice/realtime is maintained by xai. grok-voice/realtime is an xAI Grok audio-to-audio model exposed through fal as fal-ai/grok-voice. It accepts a user speech recording, applies optional system instructions and tool configuration, and returns the agent’s...

SQS is a very popular and cheap service from AWS which seems pretty inoffensive to your monthly bill. However, it charges per request, not per message, and that detail is where most of the waste hides. Things like racking up old and unused queues with live consumers,...

The British Army is buying more than 1,000 small drones for battlefield surveillance and training under contracts worth £16 million ($21 million). The Ministry of Defence (MoD) says the new portfolio of "spy" drones will give soldiers better battlefield intelligence...

A financially motivated threat actor has been linked to the development and distribution of a JavaScript (JS)-based information stealer known as PhantomRaven via the npm package registry. "The developer likely wrote the malware using a large language model (LLM), an...

CVE-2026-58138 is an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability that attackers can exploit via inline workflow definitions. The post Critical Orkes Conductor Vulnerability Exploited in Attacks appeared first on SecurityWeek.

In controlled safety tests described earlier this year, researchers asked AI models to solve a series of simple math problems. Partway through the exercise, the instructors warned the bots that if they tried to solve the next problem, the computer environment they...

The president of the Royal Society has slammed the government’s decision to move science policy from the department also covering technology to the business department. In changes announced after Andy Burnham became UK Prime Minister in July, the government abolished...
