A graphics dev took a swing at encoding rendering signals - radiance, irradiance, depth, AO, BRDFs - using tightMLPs in HLSL. They benchmarked size, storage, and runtime cost. Turns out, MLPs beatL2 spherical harmonicsfor packing radiance. But they stumble on irradiance and specular BRDFs. Bring inR.. read more  

OpenClaw, an open-source autonomous AI agent with full device access, racked up 179K GitHub stars - and walked straight into a security nightmare. It shipped wide open: default ports exposed to the internet, its plugin hub laced with malicious packages. Slapped-on fixes followed, warning labels, Vir.. read more  

GPT-5.2 Pro spotted something wild: a nonzero gluon scattering amplitude in the half-collinear regime. That’s supposed to vanish, according to standard QFT gospel. Not anymore. OpenAI’s own model backed it up with a formal proof. Humans triple-checked it analytically. And yep - it holds. Now it’s bl.. read more  

GitHub has released the Copilot SDK in technical preview, allowing developers to embed Copilot’s agentic execution loop into their own applications. The SDK supports multiple AI models, real-time streaming, and languages like Python, TypeScript, Go, and .NET, but currently requires a Copilot subscription and is intended for development and testing rather than production use.

A dev walks through the shift from chatbot coding toagent-based AI workflows, think agents that read files, run code, and double-check their work. Things only clicked once they built outcustom tools and configsto help agents spot and fix their own screwups. That’s the real unlock... read more  

Generic LLM judges and static prompts fail to capture domain-specific nuance in football defensive analysis. The architecture for self-optimizing agents built on Databricks Agent Framework allows developers to continuously improve AI quality using MLflow and expert feedback. The agent, such as a DC .. read more  

OpenAI spun up a swarm of GPT-5.x agents - thousands of them. Over a week-long sprint, they cranked out runnable browser code and shipped it nonstop. The system hit 1,000 commits an hour across 10 million tool calls. The architecture? A planner-worker stack. Hierarchical. Recursive. Lean on agent ch.. read more  

MeetGPenT, an open-source, wall-mounted polargraph pen plotter with a flair for generative art. It blends custom hardware, Marlin firmware, a Flask web UI running on Raspberry Pi, and Gemini-generated drawing prompts. The stack? Machina + LLM. Prompts go in, JSON drawing commands come out. That driv.. read more  

Open models will be the engine for the next ten years of AI research, according to Nathan Lambert, a research scientist at AI2. He explains that while open models may not catch up with closed ones due to fewer resources, they are still crucial for innovation. Lambert emphasizes the importance of int.. read more
