Building a production-grade voice AI agent is one of the hardest engineering challenges in applied machine learning today. It is not just about transcription accuracy. You need a system that can hold context across a five-minute conversation, invoke external APIs mid-call without an awkward pause, gracefully recover when a caller corrects themselves, and do all […]

Online exploitation ‘inflicting profound trauma on a staggering number of children’, Democrats sayFrustrated with what they describe as a lack of accountability from social media companies, two California state lawmakers have introduced a bill that would clear a legal pathway for them to face lawsuits in the state for failing to detect or remove child
Login method for apps and websites stored on users’ devices provides stronger security and is resistant to phishing and breachesThe UK’s National Cyber Security Centre has called time on the password – from now on, you should use a passkey.The NCSC said this week it would no longer recommend using passwords where passkeys were available.
What is a passkey, how does it work and why is it better than a password? Read More »
For years, the computer vision community has operated on two separate tracks: generative models (which produce images) and discriminative models (which understand them). The assumption was straightforward — models good at making pictures aren’t necessarily good at reading them. A new paper from Google, titled “Image Generators are Generalist Vision Learners” (arXiv:2604.20329), published April 22,
There is a quiet failure mode that lives at the center of every AI-assisted coding workflow. You ask Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf to modify a function. The agent does it confidently, cleanly, and incorrectly — because it had no idea that 47 other functions depended on the return type it just changed. Breaking changes
In this tutorial, we work with Microsoft’s OpenMementos dataset and explore how reasoning traces are structured through blocks and mementos in a practical, Colab-ready workflow. We stream the dataset efficiently, parse its special-token format, inspect how reasoning and summaries are organized, and measure the compression provided by the memento representation across different domains. As we
