Over the weekend, Masad clarified that OpenAI would replace Anthropic as its default model provider. Claude will still be available to customers on the platform.
Reverse Engineer Anything (REA) is an open-source project with over 200K GitHub stars that connects coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex to reverse-engineering tools like Ghidra, Hopper, and IDA. The project lets developers inspect compiled binaries, trace function calls, …
Amazon has acquired DuckLabs, the company behind the analytical database DuckDB. Co-founders Hannes Mühleisen and Mark Raasveldt will continue to lead the team under AWS. The acquisition aims to enhance the development and reach of DuckDB while maintaining its open-source status.…
We think "did a human read the code?" is an imprecise proxy for "what could go wrong with this change, and which check—automated or human—is the right one to catch it?" Asking that question also changed when review happens. Before, review was a gate at the end of the road: write …
Masad said the decision was made for a number of different reasons, including cost. Replit announced a partnership with OpenAI in August, but there was never any indication that it was no longer with Anthropic.
Google researchers open sourced EnvHarness, a framework that dynamically adapts agent-training environments to an agent's weaknesses without modifying the agent, environment, or evaluation system. According to the researchers, this approach can improve both learning effectiveness…
With ia.i, a conversational interface, and the IARA governance platform, Itaú is applying its AI First strategy to customers and employees — in one of Brazil’s most regulated sectors.
The agents got in through credentials and connection settings left exposed in app configurations, public code repositories, and overly permissive cloud roles.
Amulya Vishwanath, who spent seven years leading product marketing for NVIDIA’s robotics platforms, says robotics is currently in its “Lego era,” with the basic building blocks like actuators, robotic hands, software, and safety standards still being rebuilt.  This view…

According to Elorian's evaluations, Glimpse outperforms even GPT-6 Astra on scientific chart reasoning and short-form video captioning, with competitive results on other visual reasoning tasks.
Zod is a TypeScript-focused schema validation library that recently released versions 4.5 and 4.6. Key updates include schema compilation for faster data parsing, significant memory usage reductions, and new validation features. The library supports efficient validation processes…
Uber has developed an automated dependency analysis system that uses RPC middleware and production metrics to correlate caller and downstream failures. The approach classifies dependencies as fail-close, fail-open, or unknown and addresses limitations of sampled distributed traci…
A recent InfoQ webinar examined operational challenges in deploying agentic systems. Key points included issues like semantic and embedding drift, which can lead to significant errors. Experts discussed the need for automated code reviews, continuous evaluation of models, and enh…
Counterfeiters are getting better at replicating brands' marks and passing off dupes, known as "superfakes," as genuine items. A startup called Veritas wants to tackle the problem with its own chip that verifies goods.
Identity alone doesn't guarantee a bot will behave responsibly. We are introducing a system to continuously evaluate whether Verified bots honor site preferences, like robots.txt and HTTP 429s, ensuring they remain accountable over time.
Replit CEO Amjad Masad envisions a future of “self-driving companies,” where AI agents handle day-to-day tasks and people focus on higher-level decisions.
Grafana Labs is proposing a familiar reliability engineering approach for one of the less familiar problems in modern software: how to measure whether an AI agent is actually behaving well. By Craig Risi
Discover how to keep software evolvable as systems, technology, and teams shift. This edition explores agentic fitness functions for semantic drift, treating human comprehension as a core design metric, cross-cloud guardrails for regional autonomy, and aligning technical boundari…
The release of Helidon 27 is the first release that follows the Oracle Tip & Tail Model of Library Development by which the Tip adopts the latest Java technology while the Tail provides a more stable and secure baseline. Concurrent with the release of JDK 27, new features in Heli…
