OpenAI Group PBC today introduced GPT-5.6, a new series of large language models that it says can outperform Claude Mythos 5 across certain coding tasks. The most advanced algorithm in the lineup is known as Sol. It’s available alongside a midrange option called Terra and an entry-level model dubbed
Space agency selects 37 companies as partners to develop technologies that will support moon bases and Mars exploration. Read More
Long-horizon reasoning exposes a core weakness in AI agents: context windows fill up fast, and retrieval pipelines return noise instead of signal. To solve this, researchers at the National University of Singapore developed MRAgent, a framework that abandons the static "retrieve-then-reason" approac
We're tracking the items ZDNET readers have actually purchased during Prime Day sales so far today, and these deals are still here for a few more hours.
Half-million strong military will train on drones as “universal combat tool.”
TL;DR Evaluation awareness — an AI recognizing it's being evaluated — is a widely discussed concept in AI safety. But there is a closely related concept that we claim is more important: deployment awareness, the AI's ability to recognize when it is not being evaluated and when its actions matter. A
We’ve already rounded up the best Philips Hue deals of Prime Day, but if you’re looking for something a little more budget-friendly, Govee’s latest sale is worth checking out. The company has heavily discounted several of its color-changing smart lamps, including the Table Lamp 2 ($53.99, down from
Gemini for Home is the last thing I want to implement into my smart home
Apple is rumored to be launching the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e next spring, and today a new report from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has revealed some intriguing details about them. Let's start with the oddest bit of information Kuo has shared today: both the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e are allegedly going to s
Following an export control directive two weeks ago that forced Anthropic to disable access to Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 for all customers, the company scored a partial victory in a deal with the US government earlier tonight. Here are the details.
I built Calybris Core because I kept running into the same uncomfortable question in decision-heavy systems: After the system says "yes", "no", or "use this instead", what exactly can we prove later? Not prove in the formal-methods sense. I mean the practical engineering version: Which policy was ac
When I started preparing for the Claude Certified Architect Foundations (CCA-F) exam, the first thing that surprised me was how many people were studying for it the way you'd study for a generic LLM cert: heavy on prompt engineering tricks, light on the actual architecture material. The published bl
I'm a data science student learning how AI APIs are priced. I run agentic coding sessions through OpenRouter, where every code-generation loop pulls a fresh batch of tokens from a model I picked from a list of 300+ names I barely understood. Some loops cost a few cents. Some cost dollars. The total
We've all seen the archetypes: the developer who boasts about knowing seven different programming languages, the interview prep champion who can solve a LeetCode Hard in their sleep, and the coding bootcamp graduate eager to write thousands of lines of code. Early in a software engineering journey,
When organizations build AI infrastructure, GPUs usually get all the attention. Teams invest in the latest accelerators, add high speed networking, and expect training jobs to scale effortlessly. Yet many AI clusters deliver disappointing performance despite having powerful hardware. The surprising
Check this out: how I Stopped Worrying About AI API Bills: A Data-Driven Breakdown of Startup vs Enterprise Routes I've spent the last six months running inference workloads for two different projects — one a scrappy Series A startup, the other a mid-size enterprise procurement contract. Both teams
Your agent deleted something it shouldn't have at 2am. The alert fired. Now answer three questions: what did it do, why did it do it, and what did it touch. If you're grepping JSON for the next 30 minutes, you don't have tracing. You have logs with a worse UI. This is the part nobody instruments unt
I run a small WordPress + Cloudflare agency. Two recurring pains finally pushed me to build something instead of complaining: Pain 1: contractor access drift. I'd hand a contractor root SSH for "just this one task". Three jobs later, I'd realize four ex-contractors still had access I never rotated.
At a recent conference, Lenovo reps said that the higher memory prices are the new normal and won't be going away anytime soon.
