UT Austin and ServiceNow Research Team Releases AU-Harness: An Open-Source Toolkit for Holistic Evaluation of Audio LLMs
Voice AI is becoming one of the most important frontiers in multimodal AI. From intelligent assistants to interactive agents, the ability to understand and reason over audio is reshaping how machines engage with humans. Yet while models have grown rapidly in capability, the tools for evaluating them have not kept pace. Existing benchmarks remain fragmented,…

MBZUAI Researchers Release K2 Think: A 32B Open-Source System for Advanced AI Reasoning and Outperforms 20x Larger Reasoning Models
A team of researchers from MBZUAI’s Institute of Foundation Models and G42 released K2 Think, is a 32B-parameter open reasoning system for advanced AI reasoning. It pairs long chain-of-thought supervised fine-tuning with reinforcement learning from verifiable rewards, agentic planning, test-time scaling, and inference optimizations (speculative decoding + wafer-scale hardware). The result is frontier-level math performance…

Meet Elysia: A New Open-Source Python Framework Redefining Agentic RAG Systems with Decision Trees and Smarter Data Handling
If you’ve ever tried to build a agentic RAG system that actually works well, you know the pain. You feed it some documents, cross your fingers, and hope it doesn’t hallucinate when someone asks it a simple question. Most of the time, you get back irrelevant chunks of text that barely answer what was asked….

Google has unveiled Gemini CLI, an open-source command-line AI agent that integrates the Gemini 2.5 Pro model directly into the terminal. Designed for developers and technical power users, Gemini CLI allows users to interact with Gemini using natural language directly from the command line—supporting workflows such as code explanation, debugging, documentation generation, file manipulation, and…

LlamaFirewall: Open-source framework to detect and mitigate AI centric security risks – Help Net Security
LlamaFirewall is a system-level security framework for LLM-powered applications, built with a modular design to support layered, adaptive defense. It is designed to mitigate a wide spectrum of AI agent security risks including jailbreaking and indirect prompt injection, goal hijacking, and insecure code outputs. Why Meta created LlamaFirewall LLMs are moving far beyond simple chatbot…

Microsoft AI Introduces Magentic-UI: An Open-Source Agent Prototype that Works with People to Complete Complex Tasks that Require Multi-Step Planning and Browser Use
Modern web usage spans many digital interactions, from filling out forms and managing accounts to executing data queries and navigating complex dashboards. Despite the web being deeply intertwined with productivity and work processes, many of these actions still demand repetitive human input. This scenario is especially true for environments that require detailed instructions or decisions…

Ming-Lite-Uni: An Open-Source AI Framework Designed to Unify Text and Vision through an Autoregressive Multimodal Structure
Multimodal AI rapidly evolves to create systems that can understand, generate, and respond using multiple data types within a single conversation or task, such as text, images, and even video or audio. These systems are expected to function across diverse interaction formats, enabling more seamless human-AI communication. With users increasingly engaging AI for tasks like…

A Coding Guide to Asynchronous Web Data Extraction Using Crawl4AI: An Open-Source Web Crawling and Scraping Toolkit Designed for LLM Workflows
In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to harness Crawl4AI, a modern, Python‑based web crawling toolkit, to extract structured data from web pages directly within Google Colab. Leveraging the power of asyncio for asynchronous I/O, httpx for HTTP requests, and Crawl4AI’s built‑in AsyncHTTPCrawlerStrategy, we bypass the overhead of headless browsers while still parsing complex HTML via…
