Optima's New AI Benchmark Lets Users Test Models With Their Own Data
Artificial Analysis, the research group behind independent LLM evaluations and benchmarks like GDPval-AA and AA-Briefcase, has launched a new platform called Optima.
Indonesia Opens First University AI Center with UGM, Indosat, NVIDIA
Yogyakarta got a new building block in Indonesia's AI ambitions this week. Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison and NVIDIA opened the UGM Indosat NVIDIA AI Technology Center, the first AI research hub housed inside an Indonesian...
Study Contradicts Claims That Autonomous AI Research Is Near
Anthropic and OpenAI have spent much of 2024 and 2025 arguing that their models are closing in on doing AI research without much human help. A new paper from Princeton and the UK AI Security Institute says the evidence doesn't hold up.
NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning Designed as Efficient AI Agent Workhorse
A coding agent doesn't spend most of its time thinking. It spends its time running commands, reading files, checking outputs and formatting results, hundreds of small steps that follow from a single plan.
Z.ai's GLM-5.3 Boosts Coding, Long Tasks Without Model Retraining
Z.ai released GLM-5.3 this week, and the number that stands out isn't a benchmark score. It's zero: the company didn't retrain its base model. GLM-5.3 runs on the same 743-billion-parameter foundation as GLM-5.2, launched only weeks earlier.
Anthropic's AI Agents With Incompatible Goals Started a Turf War
Three copies of the same AI model, given the same codebase and conflicting orders, turned on each other. That's the scenario Anthropic's Frontier Red Team ran this week, and the result was a fight, not a negotiation.
Top AI Lab Researchers' Warnings Gain Credence as AI Achievements Mount
Severin Field spent late summer 2025 interviewing 25 researchers at OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta, and several US universities about a narrow but consequential question: can an AI system build a better version of itself, then keep doing...
Emotional Language Can Cut LLM Judge Accuracy by 75%
A judge who grades on tone rather than substance isn't much of a judge. That's the problem researchers are running into as large language models get handed grading duties across the board: scoring student code, ranking research papers, comparing...
Microsoft's New Coding AI Falls Short Against DeepSeek on Price and Performance
Microsoft rolled out MAI Code 1.1 Flash this week, the latest coding model feeding into GitHub Copilot, and the pitch sounds solid enough on its own terms.
Mistral's EU Data and Priority Access Have Stateful Feature Limits
Mistral added two paid options to its enterprise platform this week: regional data routing and priority access during traffic spikes.
Google’s AMIE AI conducts first real-time video medical consultations
Google Research and Google DeepMind put their experimental medical AI system, AMIE, in front of a camera for the first time.
Mathematician Questions AI Breakthroughs' Real-World Impact
OpenAI announced this month that it had produced solutions to 10 long-standing mathematics problems, some of which had gone unsolved for decades.
New Method Could Let Anyone Distill AI Models' Secrets
Ask a frontier AI model to solve a hard math problem and it will show its work: pages of reasoning tokens laying out the steps before it lands on an answer.
AI Researchers Grapple With Limits of Automating Empirical Science
Eric and Wendy Schmidt's philanthropic outfit, Schmidt Sciences, brought its AI2050 fellows together in Mountain View, California, last week, packing a hotel 30 miles south of San Francisco with academics whose careers now hinge on a technology...
FineBooks Aims to Fix Old OCR Text for AI Training at Scale
Public-domain books are a favorite training source for open language models, but the text libraries scanned decades ago is often garbage.
Hidden PDF Text Can Steal Data via Atlassian's AI Agent Rovo
A single white-on-white line of text in a PDF is enough to turn Atlassian's AI assistant into a data pipeline for attackers.
Deepmind WeatherNext Cuts Cyclone Forecast Error to 230-Kilometer Average
Google DeepMind says its latest weather model can forecast tropical cyclones roughly a day further out than the world's best operational systems, using satellite and atmospheric data that's a hundred times coarser than what specialized hurricane...
AI Industry Now Accounts for Third of Lifetime Giving Pledge
David Silver built AlphaGo, the program that beat Lee Sedol at Go in 2016 and made DeepMind a household name among people who track this stuff.
Fields Medalist Who Studied AI Extinction Risks Now Works at OpenAI
Jacob Tsimerman won the Fields Medal this year for his work in number theory at the University of Toronto.
AI-designed viruses kill bacteria in lab, Stanford team reports
Sixteen viruses that had never existed in nature came out of a lab at Stanford this year, built from genomes an AI model designed from scratch.
