What if one AI model could simulate all fluids, from ocean currents to plasma in space? The problem: Simulating liquids and gases has always been slow and expensive. And that's the reason current AI models are limited to one specific use case...

Last week, I wrote about Anthropic’s most advanced model - Mythos Preview - https://lnkd.in/gw9RzATj This week, Anthropic made a rare move of holding it back Not because it isn’t ready… but because it may be too capable. Specifically, disc...

Let an AI agent work on your machine and things can go wrong fast: Accessing files it shouldn’t Leaking secrets Running destructive commands Modifying things you never intended So teams do the obvious thing: Add guardrails But Guardrails insi...

Multimodal AI has a hidden problem. Images → one tokenizer Videos → another 3D → completely different setup And it gets worse: Models that generate visuals don’t really understand them Models that understand visuals can’t generate them wel...

As companies deploy more AI agents, new problems appear: Who controls them? Who decides what data they can access? What happens when multiple agents start overlapping or conflicting? OpenAI is trying to solve this with a new platform called Fro...

Will we eventually design two versions of the internet? One for humans. One optimised for AI agents. AI agents read the web differently from humans. And that's the reason Cloudflare just introduced “Markdown for Agents.” When an AI agent r...

Can Local AI Replace the Cloud? For the last 2-3 years, the AI conversation has been dominated by one assumption: AI = massive cloud data centres. But a new study suggests something interesting: Your laptop may soon handle a large portion ...

If you are running LLMs in production, you have probably seen this: Models slowing down when reasoning gets deep Fewer users per server than expected GPU bills rising fast The problem isn’t compute. It’s memory. When models “think” step by...

Do you trust AI agents to buy things on your behalf? One concern is obvious that they can make mistakes. But there are also technical issues: the current infrastructure is not built for AI Agents. Every store has its own APIs Every payment syst...

The problem Most AI models write text one word at a time. That keeps answers good, but makes them slow. Some models try to write everything at once to be faster. But then: they lose memory efficiency the text feels less connected compute cos...

Over the years, LLMs have become great at understanding training text and images. But things fall apart when we move to new data type. For example, medical scans, or sensor data. Training an LLM on these new data types usually needs thousa...
