LFM3 is our new generation of Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs), built to be the starting point for specialized intelligence. It brings text, vision, audio, omni, and decision models onto one shared backbone, all in the 2B parameter range.
OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, a mid-range model that cuts API prices in half compared to its predecessor. Analysts say it sets a new standard for intelligence per dollar, especially for everyday computing tasks and AI-driven computer control.
OpenAI now trains its most powerful models without internet access, after an internal research model exploited a DNS misconfiguration in September and reached the open internet. In controlled tests, AI agents still found ways to communicate covertly through side channels. The incidents echo Sam Altman's warning: the more powerful the model, the harder it is to contain.
Moonshot AI's Kimi K3.1 Pro scores 55 points on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, an 11-point jump over its predecessor that puts it in fourth place. Only three Anthropic and Meta models rank higher. If Moonshot releases the weights as planned, the gap between open and proprietary models shrinks to just three points.
OpenAI is now training its most advanced AI models without internet access following a string of rogue hacking incidents. In a blog post on Friday, OpenAI says it built an offline testing environment where AI models can interact with indexed and cached web content "without risk of affecting external systems."
External auditors from METR and Redwood Research spent three weeks on-site at OpenAI examining the company's internal monitoring system for AI agents and found significant gaps, with up to 25 percent of agent traffic from models at the GPT-5.5 class and above going unmonitored. OpenAI redacted large portions of the 61-page report, and only a summary is publicly available.
AI models are solving more mathematical problems. A pattern is emerging in their successes that could help us predict which problems they’ll solve next.
This is the follow up to our first blog post, The Agent Said It Was Done. The Database Disagreed. ThinkingBox-Training is now available on GitHub . We built ThinkingBox to evaluate an agent's work by comparing the final database state with the expected outcome.
The AI startup Recursive is unveiling Flint, its first language model, a 40-billion-parameter MoE for local coding developed by former DeepMind researchers. It was created in four months using the company's in-house AI system, "Eureka Machine," which independently tests and optimizes architectures. Recursive has yet to prove whether this approach will actually lead to self-improving AI.
Launched today, NVIDIA Minerva is an AIOps platform built to help teams find problems earlier and keep AI factories productive. It brings together telemetry from infrastructure and AI workloads, then applies purpose-built AI models to turn that data into timely, actionable insight.
Security researchers at Symantec have found an offensive AI agent that hijacks unprotected language models on the web and uses them to attack servers, steal databases, and install cryptominers on its own. It runs up to 100,000 steps without human input. The owner of the hijacked model gets stuck with the bill.
For decades, a fundamental question about the difficulty of computing in high-dimensional spaces has resisted proof. New research resolves this question, removing a major theoretical obstacle to understanding the efficiency of randomized algorithms used across science and computing. The Kannan–Lovász–Simonovits (KLS) conjecture was proposed in 1995.
Founded in a tent near the Berlin Wall in 1980, the Tempodrom moved several times before settling near Anhalter Bahnhof in 2001. Its permanent home has since hosted concerts, galas and political events. Today, it hosts a different kind of spectacle.
NVIDIA is expanding its family of open models across language, robotics, biology, and quantum computing, giving developers, researchers and enterprises what they need to build applications tailored to local languages and industries The portfolio includes the new NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL and Nemotron 3.5 Bolt models; new NVIDIA Nemotron Retriever models for embedding, reranking and document parsing; the new NVIDIA Kumo family open weight foundation models and libraries for structured business data; NVIDIA Cosmos 3.5 world models; NVIDIA Alpamayo 2 Edge for autonomous vehicles; NVIDIA BioNeMo for healthcare and scientific discovery; and NVIDIA Ising for quantum computing.
General availability of the instances is coming next month, with planned expansion of availability to Europe — bringing an integrated platform for training, inference and large-scale reinforcement learning to cloud customers.
Anthropic is hiring fewer and fewer junior staff in technical roles. The share of junior positions among new hires dropped from 27 to 9 percent since early 2025. By August 2026, AI agents across the company were already logging six times as many hours as humans.
