Nvidia unveils Jetson Thor T3000 and T2000 for mainstream robotics
The Blackwell-based T3000 delivers 865 FP4 teraflops in half the size of the T5000; both modules ship Q1 2027.
Meta and Stanford's EgoBabyVLM test shows top AI models still lose to a toddler
A new benchmark feeds infant head-cam footage to vision-language models — and they fail, exposing a gap AI labs cannot close with more data alone.
Thinking Machines releases Inkling, its first open-weight AI model
Mira Murati's startup ships a 975B-parameter mixture-of-experts model, betting enterprises will fine-tune their own AI rather than rent frontier chatbots.
Nvidia pushes Nemotron open models as enterprises tune their own AI
Harvey, Glean, and Arcee AI have customized Nemotron for legal, search, and inference — hitting frontier accuracy at up to 20x lower cost.
Nvidia pitches performance per watt as the AI factory's decisive metric
GB300 NVL72 delivers up to 25x performance per watt over Hopper as power becomes the binding constraint on inference economics.
Anthropic finds hidden 'J-space' inside Claude that shapes model reasoning
The nearly $1 trillion lab says probing Claude revealed words the model uses internally but never outputs — including 'panic' before it cheated on a coding test.
World models draw billions as LeCun, Li, and Runway bet against LLMs
World Labs and AMI each raised roughly $1B, Runway added $315M — but the field still can't agree on what a world model is.
Apple accelerates M7 Ultra with 1.5TB RAM support, born from shelved car project
The Neural Engine that powers Apple's on-device AI traces back to the abandoned self-driving car program, and it's about to get a server-class successor.
DTU researchers pair quantum computing with generative AI to design new peptides
A Technical University of Denmark team used an ORCA Computing quantum machine to improve peptide predictions where training data is thin.
Anthropic's new J-lens reveals hidden words inside Claude's middle layers
The interpretability tool exposes a 'J-space' where Claude Opus 4.6 quietly puzzles through math, protein sequences, and when to cheat.
Meta launches Muse Spark 1.1 to challenge Claude and GPT-5.6 on coding
The agentic coding model prices at $1.25 per million input tokens, slightly above Claude Haiku 4.5 and GPT-5.6 Luna.
OpenAI clears GPT-5.6 for public rollout, launches ChatGPT Work agent
The GPT-5.6 suite — Sol, Terra, and Luna — powers a new agent that pulls context from Slack, Gmail, and Google Drive.
Meta starts production of MTIA AI chips in September to cut Nvidia dependence
The social giant is spending up to $145B this year on AI compute and wants its own silicon to blunt GPU costs.
Meta opens Muse Spark 1.1 to developers via new Meta Model API
The upgraded model targets agentic coding and multimodal reasoning, arriving days after the controversial Muse Image launch.
OpenAI updates ChatGPT voice mode to interrupt users less often
GPT-Live-1 replaces the older turn-based voice model with full-duplex audio that can listen while it speaks.
xAI releases Grok 4.5, priced at less than half of Claude Opus 4.7
Elon Musk calls the new model Opus-class but faster and cheaper, at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output.
OpenAI ships GPT-Live-1, a full-duplex voice model that replaces Advanced Voice Mode
The new model listens and speaks simultaneously, routes to GPT-5.5 for reasoning, and now serves 150M weekly voice users.
Nvidia Nemotron 3 Ultra hits closed-model parity at 10x lower cost on LangChain
LangChain tuned its Deep Agents harness for Nemotron 3 Ultra, matching top closed models on business tasks without retraining.
ZML launches free LLMD inference server across Nvidia, AMD, Google TPU and Apple chips
The Paris startup, backed by $20M and Yann LeCun, wants to break silicon lock-in as inference costs climb.
Meta's Muse Image lets Instagram users pull each other into AI photos
Superintelligence Labs ships its first image model, replacing Llama in Meta AI and powering 30 new Instagram Stories effects.
DeepSeek plans its own inference chips to cut Nvidia and Huawei reliance
The Chinese LLM developer has spent about a year on a silicon project targeting data center inference, per Reuters.
Anthropic frees Claude Cowork from the desktop with always-on mobile agent
Cowork now runs tasks overnight without an open laptop, arriving first to Max plan subscribers at $100 a month.
Nvidia's Vera CPU targets agentic AI with 50% IPC gain over Grace
The 88-core Arm chip aims to keep GPUs fed as agents run in loops; Perplexity ran a coding workflow 1.5x faster than x86.
Nvidia and Hugging Face push Isaac GR00T 1.7 into LeRobot for open robotics
The integration connects 3M robotics developers to 16M AI builders, with Cosmos 3 world models coming next to Hugging Face's open library.
