Getting prompts right is still the hardest part of shipping reliable LLM applications. Small wording changes can swing accuracy by 20 percent. What works on a few examples often breaks at scale. When a multi-step pipeline returns a wrong answer, finding the failing step means inspecting intermediate outputs by hand. Cisco AI introduced FAPO to […]
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.
Most biology benchmarks ask narrow, fact-based questions with clean answers. Scientists weigh imperfect evidence and make decisions. OpenAI released LifeSciBench and it targets that gap directly. Even the strongest model passes roughly one task in three. The benchmark is far from saturated. What is LifeSciBench LifeSciBench contains 750 expert-authored tasks. They span seven workflows and
Vercel has released eve, an open-source framework for building, running, and scaling agents. The project is published as the npm package eve, licensed under Apache-2.0. Building an agent should mean defining what it does. It should not mean assembling all the plumbing that an agent needs to run in production. eve is the framework Vercel
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
