Google tests AMIE for clinical video consultations

Google’s research medical AI system, AMIE (Video), conducted synchronous video consultations with professional patient actors and received clinical evaluator ratings on par with primary care physicians across several core measures. Fifteen trained actors portrayed conditions across cardiopulmonary, abdominal, HEENT, neurological or psychiatric, and musculoskeletal presentations. Google says studies involving real patients and their own health

Stanford Evo 2 AI model generates phages against E. coli

Stanford researchers have synthesised nearly 300 phages from DNA sequences produced by the Evo 2 generative AI model. Laboratory testing narrowed the group to 16 phages that showed particularly strong E. coli-killing activity. The work centres on bacteriophage ΦX174, pronounced “FYE-ex-1-7-4”. Brian Hie, an assistant professor of chemical engineering and Dieter Schwarz Foundation Stanford Data

Alibaba tests new business model for Qwen open-source AI

Alibaba plans to introduce revenue-sharing terms for some commercial users of its next Qwen open-weight AI model, Reuters reported, citing two people familiar with the company’s plans. The arrangement would require larger companies that generate revenue from offering the model as a service to reach a commercial agreement with Alibaba. The exact revenue-sharing rate has

Why health AI interfaces must adapt to user expertise

MIT researchers and collaborators found that AI explainability tools in the health sector can produce sharply different results depending on who uses them. When applied to skin disease diagnosis, non-experts improved their accuracy with AI assistance, although the improvement largely came from deferring to the model. Primary care providers showed a different pattern: they performed

PRISM2 model uses clinical dialogue to interpret pathology slides

Built by Paige and Microsoft, PRISM2 reads whole-slide images through a perceiver-based encoder trained jointly on tissue tiles and clinical dialogue drawn from pathology reports. The model aggregates thousands of tile embeddings per slide into one representation, then generates text that answers diagnostic questions rather than simply classifying pixels.  Training data spans 2.3 million whole-slide

Alibaba, DeepSeek push China’s AI model race towards lower costs

Alibaba has launched Qwen3.8-Max, its largest AI model to date, as DeepSeek’s latest V4-Flash model draws attention for inference pricing that is lower than several competing systems. Qwen3.8-Max has 2.4 trillion parameters and uses a mixture-of-experts architecture, which activates only part of the model for each request. Alibaba said around 95 billion parameters are active

OpenAI report links coding agents to faster science software builds

OpenAI has released a new field report tracking eight scientific computing projects where coding agents cut runtimes. The report documents projects that used Codex on its own in five cases and a combination of Codex and Anthropic’s Claude Code in three others. Worth flagging upfront: this is a vendor publishing a survey of its own
