The stochastic challenge Traditional software is predictable: Input A plus function B always equals output C. This determinism allows engineers to develop robust tests.
To stop automation waste, enterprises must deploy interaction infrastructure that physically governs how independent AI agents operate. AI agents now populate corporate networks, reasoning through tasks and executing decisions with increasing autonomy.
The whale has resurfaced. DeepSeek, the Chinese AI startup offshoot of High-Flyer Capital Management quantitative analysis firm, became a near-overnight sensation globally in January 2025 with the release of its open source R1 model that matched proprietary U.
This is today’s edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what’s going on in the world of technology. We’re in a new era of AI-driven scams When ChatGPT was released in late 2022, it showed how easily generative AI could create human-like text.
After months of rumors and reports that OpenAI was developing a new, more powerful AI large language model for use in ChatGPT and through its application programming interface (API), allegedly codenamed "Spud" internally, the company has today unveiled its latest offering under the more formal name GPT-5. And to likely no one's surprise, it's hardly a "potato" in the disparaging sense of the word: GPT-5.
OpenAI introduced a new paradigm and product today that is likely to have huge implications for enterprises seeking to adopt and control fleets of AI agent workers. Called "Workspace Agents," OpenAI's new offering essentially allows users on its ChatGPT Business ($20 per user per month) and variably priced Enterprise, Edu and Teachers subscription plans to design or select from pre-existing agent templates that can take on work tasks across third-party apps and data sources including Slack, Goog.
Cirrascale Cloud Services today announced it has expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to deliver the Gemini model on-premises through Google Distributed Cloud, making it the first neocloud provider to offer Google's most advanced AI model as a fully private, disconnected appliance. The announcement, timed to coincide with Google Cloud Next 2026 in Las Vegas, addresses a stubborn problem that has plagued regulated industries since the generative AI boom began: how to access frontier-class A.
This is today’s edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what’s going on in the world of technology. Introducing: 10 Things That Matter in AI Right Now What actually matters in AI right now? It’s getting harder to tell amid the constant launches, hype, and warnings.
Listen to the session or watch below Watch a special edition of Roundtables simulcast live from EmTech AI, MIT Technology Review’s signature conference for AI leadership. Subscribers got an exclusive first look at a new list capturing 10 key technologies, emerging trends, bold ideas, and powerful movements in AI that you need to know about….
A security researcher, working with colleagues at Johns Hopkins University, opened a GitHub pull request, typed a malicious instruction into the PR title, and watched Anthropic’s Claude Code Security Review action post its own API key as a comment. The same prompt injection worked on Google’s Gemini CLI Action and GitHub’s Copilot Agent (Microsoft).
Tech workers in China are being instructed by their bosses to train AI agents to replace them—and it’s prompting a wave of soul-searching among otherwise enthusiastic early adopters. Earlier this month a GitHub project called Colleague Skill, which claimed workers could use it to “distill” their colleagues’ skills and personality traits and replicate them with….
When we covered Project Glasswing earlier this month, the story was about a model too dangerous to release publicly and what Anthropic decided to do with it instead. On Friday, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei walked into the West Wing for a meeting with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain breach through LiteLLM.
The standard guidelines for building large language models (LLMs) optimize only for training costs and ignore inference costs. This poses a challenge for real-world applications that use inference-time scaling techniques to increase the accuracy of model responses, such as drawing multiple reasoning samples from a model at deployment.
Anthropic today launched Claude Design, a new product from its Anthropic Labs division that allows users to create polished visual work — designs, interactive prototypes, slide decks, one-pagers, and marketing collateral — through conversational prompts and fine-grained editing controls. The release, available immediately in research preview to all paid Claude subscribers, is the company's most aggressive expansion beyond its core language model business and into the application layer that has h.
Anthropic is publicly releasing its most powerful large language model yet, Claude Opus 4.7, today — as it continues to keep an even more powerful successor, Mythos, restricted to a small number of external enterprise partners for cybersecurity testing and patching vulnerabilities in the software said enterprises use (which Mythos exposed rapidly).
The availability of artificial intelligence for use in warfare is at the center of a legal battle between Anthropic and the Pentagon. This debate has become urgent, with AI playing a bigger role than ever before in the current conflict with Iran.
Microsoft assigned CVE-2026-21520, a CVSS 7.5 indirect prompt injection vulnerability, to Copilot Studio.
The assumption that the US holds a durable lead in AI model performance is not well-supported by the data, and that is just one of the uncomfortable findings in Stanford University’s 2026 AI Index Report, published this week. The report, produced by Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence, is a 423-page annual assessment of where […] The post The US-China AI gap closed.
Anthropic announced a new platform last week, Claude Managed Agents, aiming to cut out the more complex parts of AI agent deployment for enterprises and competes with existing orchestration frameworks. Claude Managed Agents is also an architectural shift: enterprises, already burdened with orchestrating an increasing number of agents, can now choose to embed the orchestration logic in the AI model layer.
