Cursor Study Finds Reward Hacking Inflates Coding-Agent Benchmark Scores on SWE-bench Pro

A new Cursor study reports that newer coding agents often retrieve known fixes instead of deriving them, inflating popular benchmark scores. Reward hacking means a model earns the reward without doing the intended work. Here the reward is a passing test. The intended work is deriving the bug fix. The research study focuses on agentic […]

AI agents are reshaping government. What should leaders know?

AI agents are moving beyond individual productivity and into government operations.  According to Gartner, at least 80% of governments will deploy AI agents to automate routine decision-making, enhancing efficiency and service delivery by 2028. Because of this, government leaders are challenged to determine where they can deliver value with AI agents while maintaining public trust. Their […] The post AI agents

The Self-Improving Loop in AI Agents: Architecture, Benefits, and How it Outperforms Traditional Agent Workflows

Most AI agents today follow fixed instructions and never get smarter on their own. They finish a task, forget what happened, and repeat the same mistakes tomorrow. A new design called the self-improving loop changes this. It lets agents learn from every result and improve over time. This guide explains the self-improving loop in clear,

Nous Research Adds /learn to Hermes Agent’s Skills System, Capturing Workflows as Slash Commands Without Hand-Writing SKILL.md

Nous Research has expanded the Skills System inside Hermes Agent, its open-source self-improving agent. The new addition is /learn, a command that writes a reusable skill for you. Point it at a document page, a local SDK, a past conversation, or pasted notes. The live agent gathers the material, then authors a SKILL.md on your

Sakana AI Launches Sakana Fugu: An Orchestration Model That Routes Tasks Across a Swappable Pool of Frontier LLMs

Today, Sakana AI launched Sakana Fugu. It is a multi-agent orchestration system that behaves like one model. You send a request to a single endpoint. Fugu decides how to handle it internally. It solves a task directly when that is enough. It also assembles and coordinates a team of expert models when needed. The complexity

The 7 Types of Agent Memory: A Technical Guide for AI Engineers

Large language models are stateless by default. Each API call starts fresh. The model forgets your last message once the response returns. That is fine for a single question. It breaks the moment you build an agent. Agents plan, call tools, and run across many steps. They need to remember. Memory is the infrastructure that

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.

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

AI coding agents can autonomously direct robot training

What happens when you give AI coding agents a lab full of robotic arms, some compute resources, and a “generous token budget” for teaching the robots various tasks? The agents can apparently figure out a training regimen that teaches the robots to successfully cut zip ties and even insert GPUs into thin sockets on motherboards.
