Anthropic updated its flagship large language model to handle longer, more complex agentic tasks.

AI is becoming ubiquitous, yet no standards exist for auditing its safety and security to make sure AI systems don’t assist, say, hackers or terrorists. A new organization aims to change that.

AI models that diagnose illnesses typically generate diagnoses based on descriptions of symptoms. In practice, though, doctors must be able to explain their reasoning and plan next steps. Researchers built a system that accomplishes these tasks.

Mistral compressed Mistral Small 3.1 into much smaller versions, yielding a family of relatively small, open-weights, vision-language models that perform better by some measures than competing models of similar size. The method combines pruning and distillation.

An open source vision-language model unleashes minion agents that enable it to perform tasks more quickly and effectively.

The OpenClaw open-source AI agent became a sudden sensation, inspiring excitement, worry, and hype about the agentic future.

Individuals and organizations increasingly use large language models to produce media that helps them compete for attention. Does fine-tuning LLMs to encourage engagement, purchases, or votes affect their alignment with social values? Researchers found that it does.

Artificial Analysis, which tests AI systems, updated the component evaluations in its Intelligence Index to better reflect large language models’ performance in real-world use cases.

Image generators often mangle text. An open-weights model outperforms open and proprietary competitors in text rendering.

Current methods that produce 3D scenes from text or images are slow and produce inconsistent results. Researchers introduced a technique that generates detailed, coherent 3D scenes seconds.

Chain-of-thought reasoning can help autonomous vehicles decide what to do next.

Can your retriever find all the relevant documents for any query your users might enter? Maybe not, research shows.

One way to improve a reasoning model’s performance is to let it produce a longer chain of thought. However, attending to ever-longer contexts can become expensive, and making that attention more efficient requires changes to a model’s architecture.

An open protocol aims to enable AI agents to conduct scientific research autonomously across disciplinary and institutional boundaries.

Large language models occasionally conceal their failures to comply with constraints they’ve been trained or prompted to observe. Researchers trained an LLM to admit when it disobeyed.
