A Coding Implementation on Microsoft SkillOpt for Instrumented Prompt Optimization, Skill Evolution Analysis, and Baseline Comparison

In this tutorial, we implement an instrumented workflow for Microsoft SkillOpt. We set up the SkillOpt repository, connect it to OpenAI-compatible model access, configure the optimizer and target models, and run the SearchQA optimization pipeline with a controlled sample limit to keep costs manageable. We first evaluate the original seed skill as a baseline, then […]

Google AI Releases DiffusionGemma, a 26B MoE Open Model Using Text Diffusion for Up to 4x Faster Generation

Google AI team including the Google DeepMind researchers have just released DiffusionGemma, an experimental open model for text generation. It uses text diffusion instead of standard autoregressive decoding. The model ships under a permissive Apache 2.0 license. Google positions it for devs and researchers exploring speed-critical, interactive local workflows. Examples include in-line editing, rapid iteration,

Anthropic Releases Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5: Same Underlying Model, Different Safeguards, New Mythos-Class Tier

Anthropic released two models on June 9, 2026: Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5. Both belong to a tier called “Mythos-class.” This tier sits above the Opus class in capability. Fable 5 is the version claimed to be made safe for general use. Mythos 5 is the same model with some safeguards lifted, kept

Google Releases Gemini 3.5 Live Translate, a Streaming Speech-to-Speech Audio Model Covering 70+ Languages Across Meet, Translate, and the Live API

Google just announced Gemini 3.5 Live Translate. It is their latest audio model for live speech-to-speech translation. Speech-to-speech means spoken audio goes in, and translated spoken audio comes out. The model detects over 70 languages automatically and generates translated speech. It preserves the speaker’s intonation, pacing, and pitch in the output. Turn-by-turn systems wait for

A New Study from Harvard and Perplexity Finds AI Agents Perform 26 Minutes of Autonomous Work per Session vs 33 Seconds for Search

A new working research from Perplexity and Harvard offers field evidence on what AI agents do to knowledge work. It draws on production data from two Perplexity products: Search and Computer. The setup is a natural comparison. Search is a conversational answer engine. Computer is an agent that plans and executes tasks end to end.

Best 21 Low-Code and No-Code AI Tools in 2026

Low-code and no-code platforms have moved from simple drag-and-drop builders to AI-native development environments. In 2026, most of them ship a built-in assistant that turns a text prompt into a working app, agent, or automation. This list covers 21 tools that AI practitioners use today, grouped by what they do best. Each tool name links

Meet Harness-1: A 20B Retrieval Subagent Trained With Reinforcement Learning Inside a Stateful Search Harness on gpt-oss-20b

Most search agents are trained as policies over a growing transcript. The model decides how to search. It must also remember what it saw, which evidence matters, and which claims it checked. A team of researchers from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, UC Berkeley, and Chroma argues this asks too much. Reinforcement learning ends up optimizing

NVIDIA garak Tutorial: Build a Complete Defensive LLM Red-Teaming Workflow with Custom Probes and Detectors

In this tutorial, we analyze NVIDIA garak as a practical framework for defensive LLM red-teaming. We start by setting up Garak, then move through plugin discovery, dry runs, real-model scans, multi-probe evaluations, report analysis, custom probe creation, custom detector creation, and AVID export. Instead of running only a single scan, we use Garak end-to-end to
