OpenAI has introduced a new feature called Codex Pets in the OpenAI Codex app. The update brings animated floating companions that allow users to monitor tasks in real time, without switching back to the main interface. What Are Codex Pets? Codex Pets are optional animated overlays that sit on top of other apps and display…
In a recent experiment, Anthropic created a classified marketplace where AI agents represented both buyers and sellers, striking real deals for real goods and real money. The company admitted this test — which it called Project Deal — was only “a pilot experiment with a self-selected participant pool” of 69 Anthropic employees who were given…
Writing fast GPU code is one of the most grueling specializations in machine learning engineering. Researchers from RightNow AI want to automate it entirely. The RightNow AI research team has released AutoKernel, an open-source framework that applies an autonomous LLM agent loop to GPU kernel optimization for arbitrary PyTorch models. The approach is straightforward: give…
WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a noise cancellation feature for voice and video calls to select Android beta users, aimed at improving call clarity in noisy environments. The feature, spotted in WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.26.14.1, is designed to filter out background noise such as traffic, wind, and ambient sounds during calls. According to…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are the world’s best mimics, but when it comes to the cold, hard logic of updating beliefs based on new evidence, they are surprisingly stubborn. A team of researchers from Google argue that the current crop of AI agents falls far short of ‘probabilistic reasoning’—the ability to maintain and update a…
Nothing has officially launched the Nothing Phone (4a) in India, the company’s latest mid-range smartphone and the successor to the Nothing Phone (3a). The new device brings several upgrades, including a larger display, improved Glyph lighting, a more powerful processor, and a bigger battery.

Sarvam, an Indian AI startup focused on building models for local languages and users, on Friday launched its Indus chat app for web and mobile users, entering a fast-growing market dominated by global players including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. The launch comes as India has become a key battleground for generative AI adoption. Recently, OpenAI…
Robots are entering their GPT-3 era. For years, researchers have tried to train robots using the same autoregressive (AR) models that power large language models (LLMs). If a model can predict the next word in a sentence, it should be able to predict the next move for a robotic arm….
