Google Research and UNSW Sydney have released GlucoFM, a self-supervised foundation model for continuous glucose monitoring. Its core move is a split. Existing CGM models — CGMformer, GluFormer, CGM-JEPA — encode a glucose trace as one entangled sequence. GlucoFM decomposes it into a slow physiological “state” stream and a transient “event” stream, keeps the observation
AI companies have promised us world-shifting technology. But there’s a cost: loud, unsightly datacentres that drain environmental resources. As the government pushes their rapid growth, can local communities do anything to push back? Madeleine Finlay speaks to the Guardian’s global technology reporter Aisha Down about the backlash to datacentres across the UK and around the

Z.ai has released GLM-5.3-Flash, the first natively multimodal model in the GLM-5 series and the cheapest capable coding model the lab has shipped. It is a mixture-of-experts model with 320B total parameters and 18B active per token, a 1,048,576-token context window, and image and video input — released under an MIT license with weights on

Alibaba’s Qwen team has released Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, an open-weight multimodal Mixture-of-Experts model built for cost per token. The checkpoint pairs a 125B backbone with a 51B N-gram embedding table and a 4B multi-token prediction module. Only 6B parameters activate per token. The team positions it as an early preview of the architecture that will underpin Qwen4,
I read every major model release. Most of them ship a coding number. The number goes up. The conclusion everyone draws is that junior engineers are finished. I think that conclusion is being reached the wrong way. People are reasoning from a benchmark score to a labor market outcome, skipping every step in between. So
