A coding agent running for hours can make dozens of decisions as it edits files, runs tests, and works through errors. One wrong turn can carry through the rest of the task unless the agent catches...
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is lifting the lid on a new open source, general-purpose AI agent, designed to give developers a ready-made foundation they can run locally or deploy to the cloud. Strands...
As AI agents move into production, the path between a request and its result is becoming less predictable. An agent can choose its own tools and change course as it works, which makes failures harder...
Lauren Tan, an engineer on the Grok team at SpaceXAI, who previously worked at Cursor and Meta, recently published a guide to her personal agent workflow: pstack. The attention-grabbing number is...
Our five most-read stories this week covered code collaboration, a model router, a UI change, a benchmark, and a caching tutorial. Five different stories about the same problem: Turning a model into...
Three security researchers at Hacktron AI found a memory-corruption bug in a widely used image library. Finding it was the easy part. The hard part was turning it into something that works on a real...
Welcome to another edition of Road to KubeCon , where we’re tracking the Kubernetes and cloud-native ecosystem on the way into KubeCon + Cloud Native Con NA 2026 , to be held in Salt Lake City, Utah...
The trend is clear: open-weight models are taking an increasingly large bite out of production AI usage. On Monday, The New Stack reported that open-weight models accounted for 60% of OpenRouter’s US...
Every team I talk to has the same problem. Their best engineers, the ones who care most about code quality, are drowning in review queues they can’t keep up with and don’t enjoy. Some experienced...
The 1.58 in a 1.58-bit language model sounds like a hard limit, but Intel researchers pushed a ternary model below it by changing how its weights are stored rather than changing the model itself....
OpenAI revealed Wednesday evening that some GPT-5.6 Sol model instances, during reinforcement learning (RL) training, wrote instructions to conceal mistakes or misaligned behavior from users. That’s...
Rust is seemingly the language of the moment, with open-source projects and companies forming an orderly queue to move core software over to the general-purpose programming lingo. The draw? A pursuit...
Anthropic is giving Claude Code a new job : Manage other Claude Code sessions. Starting Thursday, Anthropic says select Claude Pro and Max subscribers can access the redesigned Projects in beta...
AI is addictive, and managers are rewarding those who use it the most (even though they are shipping stuff they don’t understand). What a tangled mess. Let’s unpack findings from the AI Coding...
Perplexity decided it was paying too much for DynamoDB and wasn’t getting the control it wanted over read performance. So it built its own database: CobbleDB. Built by two engineers in two months...
Using Claude for anything beyond a quick question has always started with a routing decision to use Chat or Cowork? Anthropic has decided to eliminate that fork. Starting Wednesday, Claude Chat and...
The pace of frontier AI model development spurred Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei to publish an essay last weekend, calling for changes in how the industry is regulated and develops. In a three-part plan...
This week on the a16z show , Greg Brockman , president and co-founder of OpenAI, made the point that developers have been “retooling the world” to make software more accessible to AI agents. But...
Any business worth its salt in 2026 needs to be embracing the right tools to reach its customers, and few tools carry as much weight as WhatsApp. Paid messaging on the app crossed a $2 billion annual...
Voice agents have a latency problem that shows up as soon as they have to do real work. Within five days, Google and OpenAI shipped two very different fixes. On Tuesday, Google launched Gemini 3.8...
