New software designs eco-friendly clothing that can reassemble into new items
It’s hard to keep up with the ever-changing trends of the fashion world. What’s “in” one minute is often out of style the next season, potentially causing you to re-evaluate your wardrobe. Staying current with the latest fashion styles can be wasteful and expensive, though. Roughly 92 million tons of textile waste are produced annually, including…
AutoCode: A New AI Framework that Lets LLMs Create and Verify Competitive Programming Problems, Mirroring the Workflow of Human Problem Setters
Are your LLM code benchmarks actually rejecting wrong-complexity solutions and interactive-protocol violations, or are they passing under-specified unit tests? A team of researchers from UCSD, NYU, University of Washington, Princeton University, Canyon Crest Academy, OpenAI, UC Berkeley, MIT, University of Waterloo, and Sentient Labs introduce AutoCode, a new AI framework that lets LLMs create and…
Forget Apps vs. Agents — The Future Is AI-Powered Apps with Agents Inside
Open your favorite SaaS app. Maybe it’s a CRM, a project tracker, or a financial dashboard. Now imagine instead of clicking through menus or exporting reports, you simply ask: “Why did churn spike last month?” or “What tasks are blocking this sprint?” And the app doesn’t just display numbers. It explains. It highlights the root…
Google DeepMind is bringing AI to the next generation of fusion energy
Science Published 16 October 2025 Authors The Fusion team We’re partnering with Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) to bring clean, safe, limitless fusion energy closer to reality. Fusion, the process that powers the sun, promises clean, abundant energy without long-lived radioactive waste. Making it work here on Earth means keeping an ionized gas, known as plasma,…
Method teaches generative AI models to locate personalized objects
Say a person takes their French Bulldog, Bowser, to the dog park. Identifying Bowser as he plays among the other canines is easy for the dog-owner to do while onsite. But if someone wants to use a generative AI model like GPT-5 to monitor their pet while they are at work, the model could fail…
Meta AI’s ‘Early Experience’ Trains Language Agents without Rewards—and Outperforms Imitation Learning
How would your agent stack change if a policy could train purely from its own outcome-grounded rollouts—no rewards, no demos—yet beat imitation learning across eight benchmarks? Meta Superintelligence Labs propose ‘Early Experience‘, a reward-free training approach that improves policy learning in language agents without large human demonstration sets and without reinforcement learning (RL) in the…
Optimizing food subsidies: Applying digital platforms to maximize nutrition
Oct. 16 is World Food Day, a global campaign to celebrate the founding of the Food and Agriculture Organization 80 years ago, and to work toward a healthy, sustainable, food-secure future. More than 670 million people in the world are facing hunger. Millions of others are facing rising obesity rates and struggle to get healthy…
Ivy Framework Agnostic Machine Learning Build, Transpile, and Benchmark Across All Major Backends
In this tutorial, we explore Ivy’s remarkable ability to unify machine learning development across frameworks. We begin by writing a fully framework-agnostic neural network that runs seamlessly on NumPy, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JAX. We then dive into code transpilation, unified APIs, and advanced features like Ivy Containers and graph tracing, all designed to make deep…
New prediction model could improve the reliability of fusion power plants
Tokamaks are machines that are meant to hold and harness the power of the sun. These fusion machines use powerful magnets to contain a plasma hotter than the sun’s core and push the plasma’s atoms to fuse and release energy. If tokamaks can operate safely and efficiently, the machines could one day provide clean and…
5 Most Popular Agentic AI Design Patterns Every AI Engineer Should Know
As AI agents evolve beyond simple chatbots, new design patterns have emerged to make them more capable, adaptable, and intelligent. These agentic design patterns define how agents think, act, and collaborate to solve complex problems in real-world settings. Whether it’s reasoning through tasks, writing and executing code, connecting to external tools, or even reflecting on…
