Moonshot AI Releases Kimi K3.1 Pro: A 2.8T Total/104B Active Params (MoE) Model with 1M Context

Moonshot AI has just released Kimi K3.1 Pro, the first model in its K3.1 series. Kimi K3.1 Pro is a 3T-class open-weight* model with a 1-million-token context window. Moonshot team positions it against the strongest proprietary models on coding, agentic and knowledge benchmarks. For developers, it is cheaper API pricing than K3 and open weights

Google Cloud Launches Agent Compute Engine: A MicroVM per AI Agent

Google Cloud has announced Agent Compute Engine, a compute service built specifically for AI agents. Google Agent Compute Engine gives each agent its own hardware-isolated microVM. The sandbox holds zero credentials. The service already powers Gemini as an agent for work tasks. Google unveiled it this week at AGNTCon + MCPCon. Customer preview is targeted

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Generative artificial intelligence models are rooted in ideas of mid-20th century engineers who thought some amount of irrationality was essential for a machine that could think like a human, contends Benjamin Lindquist, an assistant professor in the MIT History Section, who holds an MIT Schwarzman College of Computing shared position with the Department of Electrical

This design software reimagines everyday objects as self-aware devices

As a child, you likely saw a few Disney movies depicting inanimate objects, such as clocks, cups, and toys, as interactive companions to humans — an act of pure magic, seemingly. But scientists at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) are now doing something similar: transforming stationary items into self-aware tools that perceive and respond

IBM AI Releases Granite Speech 5.0 2B for Multilingual Transcription and Translation

IBM has released Granite Speech 5.0 2B, a new open speech-language model for transcription and translation. Granite Speech 5.0 2B is a 2B-parameter model from IBM that turns speech into text in 6 languages. It ships under Apache 2.0. IBM also updated 2 existing models: the edge-focused Turbo CTC and the diarization-focused 4.1 2B Plus.

Perplexity and NVIDIA Researchers Introduce JOLT: a Joint Teacher-Student Reinforcement Learning Method

Perplexity, along with NVIDIA team, has introduced JOLT, a new post-training method for language models. JOLT stands for Joint On-policy Learning and Teaching. It trains a single model in 2 roles. The teacher sees privileged information; the student does not. The key change is that the teacher is trained too, so its feedback stays usable.

Google Cloud Ships llm-d 1.0 With Cache-Aware Routing for TPU and GPU Fleets

Google team have released llm-d 1.0, the first stable version of its distributed inference stack. This open-source, Kubernetes-native layer turns vLLM or SGLang model servers into one coordinated pool. They released it at the PyTorch Conference North America. It targets self-hosted agent and RL workloads, where round-robin load balancing breaks down. TL;DR A serving stack:

Google Open-Sources TorchTPU, a Native PyTorch Backend for Cloud TPUs

Google has open-sourced TorchTPU, a native PyTorch backend for Cloud TPUs. It was co-developed with the PyTorch team at Meta and announced at PyTorch Conference 2026 on October 20, 2026. Existing PyTorch code targets a TPU through a standard torch.device(“tpu”). TPUs now sit beside GPUs and CPUs as a native PyTorch device. Google team states
