MoonMath AI team has released a bf16 forward attention kernel for AMD’s MI300X GPU. It is written in HIP, not hand-written assembly. The code is open-source under the MIT license. The MoonMath.ai team reports it beats AITER v3, AMD’s own optimized kernel, on every tested shape. Bare-metal access came from HotAisle, an AMD cloud provider. […]
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
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
TLDR YaFF is Yandex’s open-source zero-copy wire format for Protobuf — Apache 2.0, currently C++, v0.1.0. The .proto file stays the source of truth; only the physical memory layout changes. On Yandex’s benchmarks, the Flat Layout reads hot data ~3.8× faster than FlatBuffers, within 1.2× of a raw C++ struct. Four layouts — Fixed, Flat,
NVIDIA Research has released SpatialClaw, a training-free framework for spatial reasoning. It targets a persistent weakness in vision-language models (VLMs). These models still struggle to judge where objects are, how they relate, and how they move in 3D. SpatialClaw does not retrain the model. Instead, it changes the action interface the agent uses to call
While recent breakthroughs in AI reasoning have largely been driven by massive scale, pouring in billions of parameters to cross complex cognitive thresholds—VibeThinker-3B is charting a completely different path. Created by researchers from Sina Weibo Inc (China), this 3-billion-parameter model proves that efficiency can punch far above its weight class. Released under an open-source MIT
This week, Liquid AI released two new retrieval models. They are LFM2.5-ColBERT-350M and LFM2.5-Embedding-350M. Both hold 350M parameters. Both are the first bidirectional members of the LFM family. They build on LFM2.5-350M-Base, released in March. The pair targets fast multilingual and cross-lingual search across 11 languages. Their footprint is small enough to run almost anywhere.
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.
Long-context large language models (LLMs) face a memory bottleneck that has nothing to do with model weights. During decoding, transformers cache the key and value (KV) vectors for every token at every layer so they don’t have to recompute attention. This cache grows linearly with sequence length and batch size, and at long context with

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
