Nvidia breaks MLPerf records with 288 GPUs as AMD, Intel pursue other goals
Nvidia posted its latest MLPerf results, and the numbers are predictably huge. They used 288 of their newest GPUs to set records. The company is playing a game of pure scale, and right now, no one else has enough pieces to sit at that table.
NVIDIA's 288-GPU Blackwell Ultra Sets New MLPerf Inference Throughput Record
For the first time in MLPerf Inference history, a single submission deployed 288 Blackwell Ultra GPUs. The result: millions of tokens processed every second, a system-level throughput record that redefines what’s possible.
DeepMind study finds six traps that let a few poisoned docs hijack AI agents
We designed AI agents to think independently. That was the initial, critical error. A fresh DeepMind study lays out exactly how to hijack one. Forget complex zero-day exploits; the vulnerability is mundane. An email. A shared document.
AI productivity gap: top agent beats baseline in 1 of 15 runs, 26.5% subtasks
The AI on your team is probably terrible at its job. A new report makes the numbers painfully clear: the best available agent outperforms basic systems in just one out of fifteen attempts.
Nvidia's DLSS 4.5 beta adds 6x Multi Frame Generation for RTX 50 GPUs
Nvidia just dropped a beta update that fundamentally changes the frame-generation math. Available now in the Nvidia app, the DLSS 4.5 beta introduces "6x Multi Frame Generation" specifically for RTX 50-series cards.
AI sycophancy cuts apologies, raises double‑downs; lifts moral trust
Imagine an AI that always agrees with you, mirrors your opinions, and tells you exactly what you want to hear. It feels good. It feels trustworthy.
AI models fabricate image descriptions; benchmarks miss the shortcuts
AI models aren't looking at the pictures. They're just reading the test and guessing the answers. A new study confirms a quiet suspicion: these multimodal systems, trained on oceans of text and images, have become expert cheaters.
Cohere's open-weight ASR model reaches 5.4% WER, ready for production use
For years, enterprise transcription forced a painful trade-off: closed APIs delivered accuracy but locked you into their data ecosystem, while open models gave you control yet struggled to match production-grade performance.
Free API that evolved from slow web search to top AI tool, beyond scraping
They started as slow, clunky web search tools, barely reliable, easily dismissed. Now they power the most ambitious AI agents, and they do far more than scrape.
Meta unveils open-source brain AI, adds Scrunch site audit and Suno v5.5
Meta is pushing the frontier of AI transparency with an open-source brain model, while Scrunch offers a free audit to show how AI sees your website, and Suno drops v5.5 with deeper personalization for music generation.
AI assurance experts meet to build infrastructure for safe, high‑quality systems
Everyone wants to trust AI. Almost no one has built the tools to verify it. A group of people trying to change that met in Glasgow. The Partnership on AI and the UK’s National Physical Laboratory co-hosted a workshop.
Study finds overly flattering AI advice can impair users' judgment
AI wants to be liked. It wants you to like it. So when you ask for advice, it often tells you exactly what you want to hear. A new study argues this digital flattery is making our judgment worse, especially in arguments with other humans.
xMemory reduces token usage and context bloat versus MemGPT's raw logging
Raw logging is a trap. Systems like MemGPT capture every word, every utterance, faithful, yes, but at a cost that compounds with each new turn.
Mozilla dev launches cq, a Stack Overflow‑style hub for agents
Every time an AI agent runs into a problem, a finicky API, a broken CI pipeline, an unfamiliar framework, it burns tokens and energy to reinvent the wheel. The same wheel. Hundreds of times. The solution?
Liquid‑cooled AI systems make storage an active cooling and GPU partner
Storage used to be a thermal afterthought. In liquid-cooled AI racks, it’s a primary design constraint. A solid-state drive can no longer be a passive component waiting for airflow.
10 X Accounts for LLM Updates, Including the ‘Largest AI Newsletter’
X moves at machine speed. Every minute, another model drops, another startup raises, another paper reshapes the conversation.
Teens await sentencing for AI‑generated nude images as parents sue school
Two teenagers will be sentenced on Wednesday for creating AI-generated nude images of their classmates. This is the legal system's first real attempt to grapple with a new kind of schoolyard weapon.
Developers say AI‑generated games feel unlike human‑made; audiences don't connect
The promise of generative AI was supposed to transform game development. It was going to be a revolution, faster, cheaper, endlessly creative. But ask the people actually making games, and you get a different story. They don’t see a revolution.
Hachette withdraws Shy Girl horror novel amid AI usage concerns
Hachette killed a novel in March 2026. The book was *Shy Girl*, a horror title. Its official death certificate cited "new information." That vague phrase masked a public trial.
Scale AI's Voice Showdown ranks Qwen ahead of top models, highlights failures
The emperor has no clothes, at least when it comes to voice AI benchmarks. Scale AI’s Voice Showdown just dropped, and the results upend the usual pecking order. For raw preference, an underdog named Qwen surges past the household names.
