Inside NVIDIA’s IsaacTeleop: From Hand and Controller Tracking to Robot Actions with the Graph-Based Retargeting Engine

In this tutorial, we work through the retargeting engine at the core of NVIDIA IsaacTeleop, the framework that turns XR hand tracking and motion-controller input into commands for simulated and real robots. Rather than plugging in a headset, we build every input ourselves in NumPy, so each step runs on a plain Colab CPU and

Meta, OpenAI and Uber Just Taught AI Agents to Talk First. What About When to Stay Quiet?

TL;DR: Meta’s Muse, OpenAI’s Dots and Uber’s driver assistant share one bet: the agent speaks first. That moves the hard problem from what to answer to when to interrupt, on which channel, and with what offer. Classic ML and new decision models can solve it. Three launches, one pattern Meta Muse (Sept 8). A personal

IBM Brings Bob to Self-Hosted and Air-Gapped Environments: Agentic Software Development Without Moving Your Code

IBM has made a self-hosted deployment option for IBM Bob generally available. Bob is IBM’s agentic software development platform. It covers the full lifecycle: understanding code, planning work, executing changes and validating results. The new option lets enterprises run Bob on premises, in private or sovereign clouds, and in air-gapped networks. Is it deployable today?

Prime Intellect Launches Prime Inference: Serverless and Reserved Serving for Frontier Open Models

Prime Intellect has launched Prime Inference, a serving platform for frontier open-source models. It offers serverless endpoints and reserved capacity on Prime’s own GPUs across multiple datacenters. Before public release, it processed nearly a trillion tokens per day internally. That traffic came from RL rollouts, synthetic data generation, evaluations and long-running coding agents. What is

Microsoft AI Releases MAI-Transcribe-2-Streaming: #1 Real-Time Speech-to-Text Model on Artificial Analysis

Microsoft AI has released MAI-Transcribe-2-Streaming, its first streaming speech-to-text (STT) model. It launched on October 1, 2026, alongside 2 text-to-speech models, MAI-Voice-2.1 and MAI-Voice-2.1-Flash. Artificial Analysis ranks it #1 of 38 models for final and first partial transcript accuracy. The model targets voice agents, live captions and dictation, where latency decides the experience. What Microsoft

Datalab Introduces OmniExtractBench to Fix Bias and Opacity in Extraction Benchmarks

Datalab has released OmniExtractBench, an open benchmark for structured document extraction. It tests how accurately a system fills a JSON schema from a PDF. The benchmark pools 620 documents from 4 existing benchmarks. One deterministic scorer grades all of them and explains each decision. The release lands while extraction vendors publish their own leaderboards. Datalab

AWS Strands Labs Releases Strands Decider 2B: An Open Source Decision Model That Picks Options in About 115 ms

AWS Strands Labs releases Strands Decider 2B, an open source decision model. It does not generate text. It reads a state and typed questions, then returns a choice, a yes/no probability, or a score with a calibrated confidence. The model has 1.9 billion parameters and runs locally on a CPU, a consumer GPU, or an

Cloudflare Releases Clef and Clef-flash: Open-Weight Decision Models That Return Typed Probabilities Instead of Text

Cloudflare has released Clef and Clef-flash, the first models trained by its Workers AI team. They are decision models, not chatbots. Each reads an input state and a schema of typed questions. It returns a probability for every allowed answer, with no free-form text. Both are open-weight under Apache 2.0 and compatible with TypeSafe AI’s
