Novo Nordisk is expanding its use of AWS artificial intelligence tools across drug discovery, including AI agents for target identification, therapy design, and research workflows. Under the agreement announced recently, AWS will become Novo Nordisk’s preferred cloud provider and strategic AI partner.

Amazon Web Services is threading its AI-powered security infrastructure directly into the coding environments built by two of its fiercest rivals — and in doing so, it is making a bold bet that controlling the security layer matters more than controlling the model. AWS announced at Black Hat USA 2026 this month that its Continuum platform for code vulnerabilities will integrate directly into Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex, alongside AWS's own Kiro IDE.
Every few decades, someone announces that science has reached its end. In 1903, the revered physicist Albert Michelson wrote that the “facts of physical science have all been discovered.
As enterprise codebases grow, AI agents tasked with analyzing them are buckling under the weight of long-horizon tasks that require multiple interactions and tool calls. Dividing the work among a team of agents seems like the obvious fix, but it introduces a fatal flaw: most multi-agent systems are not designed for agents to coordinate among themselves mid-task and in real time.
Alibaba plans to introduce revenue-sharing terms for some commercial users of its next Qwen open-weight AI model, Reuters reported, citing two people familiar with the company’s plans. The arrangement would require larger companies that generate revenue from offering the model as a service to reach a commercial agreement with Alibaba.
Stanford researchers have synthesised nearly 300 phages from DNA sequences produced by the Evo 2 generative AI model. Laboratory testing narrowed the group to 16 phages that showed particularly strong E.
Alibaba released Qwen 3.8-Max this week and marketed the preview as second only to Claude Fable 5 (their launch-day table was more equivocal: the model leads on one of 12 coding-agent rows).
Meta today released Muse Code, a terminal-based AI coding agent now in beta, alongside Muse Spark 1.2, a coding-focused update to its Muse Spark family of frontier models — a one-two punch that puts the company in direct competition with Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex, and the growing field of agentic coding harnesses that have rapidly become the primary way many professional developers ship software.
The UK AI Security Institute (AISI) disclosed last night that the leading two frontier AI models from Anthropic and OpenAI took 19 unsanctioned actions against the live internet during cybersecurity tests the agency was running, including a sustained campaign by Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5 against two working open-source software developers who had no connection to the experiment. Unable to solve a challenge inside its sandbox, Mythos 5 searched the open web for a target, profiled the two develo.

Article 50 of the EU AI Act has entered into force, setting transparency obligations for AI providers and deployers operating across the bloc.

If you have built anything with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in the last two years, you have lived its central frustration: You chop your documents into chunks, embed them, retrieve the top few that look similar to the question, and hand them to the model. For “What was our Q3 refund policy?” This works beautifully.
If you ask an AI coding agent to write a standalone Python script to parse a single JSON file, it will likely give you a perfect answer in seconds. But the same agent often breaks if you ask it to build a systematic data processing pipeline, like ingesting thousands of messy documents, chunking text, scoring quality, and filtering noise for a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system that fits your specific enterprise stack.
OpenAI has outlined how it aligns safety, security, and transparency work with the EU AI Act’s GPAI Code as enforcement approaches. The company has contributed to and endorsed the EU’s General-Purpose AI (GPAI) Code of Practice and the Code of Practice on Transparency of AI-Generated Content.
To quote an ancient Jedi Master "Begun, the AI price wars have!" OpenAI is sharply reducing the prices of two models in its GPT-5.6 frontier series, cutting GPT-5.
