Crawlee for Python: Build a Web Crawling Pipeline with Robots Handling, Link Graphs, and RAG Chunk Export

In this tutorial, we build a full Crawlee-for-Python workflow that covers environment setup, local website generation, static crawling, dynamic crawling, structured extraction, and downstream data processing. We begin by configuring a compatible Crawlee runtime with pinned Pydantic support, Playwright browser installation, persistent storage directories, and Colab-safe execution handling. We then generate a realistic local demo […]

Cisco AI Introduces FAPO: Pipeline-Aware Prompt Optimization With Step-Level Failure Attribution and Claude Code Orchestration

Getting prompts right is still the hardest part of shipping reliable LLM applications. Small wording changes can swing accuracy by 20 percent. What works on a few examples often breaks at scale. When a multi-step pipeline returns a wrong answer, finding the failing step means inspecting intermediate outputs by hand. Cisco AI introduced FAPO to

Nous Research Updates Hermes Agent With a Blank Slate Mode That Pins Toolsets via platform_toolsets.cli and disabled_toolsets

Nous Research has added a Blank Slate setup mode to its open-source Hermes Agent. It inverts the usual onboarding. Instead of a fully loaded default, you start with almost nothing. Hermes Agent is the self-improving agent framework from Nous Research. It runs on your own machine. The team announced the new mode on X. Blank

Perplexity Launches Brain, a Self-Improving Memory System That Builds a Context Graph of an Agent’s Work and Learns Overnight

Most AI memory remembers the user. It stores your preferences, your tastes, and your role. Perplexity is taking a different path. Today, Perplexity launched Brain, a self-improving memory system for its agent product, Computer. Brain does not focus on remembering you. It remembers what the agent did. That reframes what memory in AI is for.

OpenAI Releases LifeSciBench, a 750-Task Benchmark Grading AI Models on Real Life-Science Research With Expert-Written Rubric

Most biology benchmarks ask narrow, fact-based questions with clean answers. Scientists weigh imperfect evidence and make decisions. OpenAI released LifeSciBench and it targets that gap directly. Even the strongest model passes roughly one task in three. The benchmark is far from saturated. What is LifeSciBench LifeSciBench contains 750 expert-authored tasks. They span seven workflows and

NVIDIA SkillSpector Guide: Scanning AI Skills for Security Risks with Static Analysis and SARIF Reports

In this tutorial, we explore how NVIDIA SkillSpector helps us evaluate AI skills for security risks before they are used in real-world workflows. We build a controlled corpus containing both benign and deliberately vulnerable skills, scan them through SkillSpector’s programmatic LangGraph workflow, and organize the resulting risk scores and findings with pandas. We then visualize

Vercel Releases Eve: An Open-Source AI Agent Framework Where Each Agent is a Directory of Files Mapped to Capabilities

Vercel has released eve, an open-source framework for building, running, and scaling agents. The project is published as the npm package eve, licensed under Apache-2.0. Building an agent should mean defining what it does. It should not mean assembling all the plumbing that an agent needs to run in production. eve is the framework Vercel

MiniMax Sparse Attention (MSA): a Two-Branch Block-Sparse Attention Trained on a 109B-Parameter MoE With a 3T-Token Budget

MiniMax released MSA (MiniMax Sparse Attention), a sparse attention method built directly on Grouped Query Attention (GQA). It targets one bottleneck: the quadratic cost of softmax attention at long context. The MiniMax research team tested it inside a 109B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model trained with native multimodal data. They also open-sourced an inference kernel and shipped a
