For the last few years, AI engineering has operated under a surprisingly simple assumption: Bigger models are better models.

In what appears to be a follow-up to the mighty “CasiOak,” the rugged Japanese watch brand is expected to release an all-new luxury homage.

The Home Depot Labor Day sale goes hard on grills and tools. Here are our recommendations on what to buy—and what to ignore.

Microsoft's Copilot rarely reproduces even full sentences from news articles and books, let alone substantive chunks that could substitute for the original, the company says in new legal filings as it fights copyright claims from publishers including The New York Times and book authors. As part of the lawsuit's discovery, Microsoft provided 8.2 million Copilot […]

OpenAI announced its next big model, GPT-6 Astra, and also, by the way, that "the AGI era" is here now. Today on The Vergecast, we've got an all-star panel to break down the news of the week. First, senior AI reporter Hayden Field joins us to talk about our supposed AGI era and Nvidia's acquisition […]

It's not quite the "push button; get song" of Suno, but Roland's new Melody Flip tool marks the company's foray into generative AI music. Available as a plug-in for your digital audio workstation (DAW), Melody Flip offers around 250 "Palettes," which are essentially themed collections of musical ideas sorted by genre. You can start from […]

GoPro CEO Nick Woodman said in a letter to customers that making cameras is still his company's "core DNA," after a proposed $285 million acquisition by Starman was announced earlier this week. He claims the merger puts GoPro in a better position to continue developing its content creation tech, after saying in the deal announcement […]

The PR masterminds at the White House just released a series of vaguely policy-themed "arcade" games, some of which are racist - and modeled on real games whose copyright holders may not be too happy to be associated with the MAGA agenda. The Tetris Company has already responded to "Build the Wall," which is obviously […]

It's the latest failure of OpenAI's internal monitoring and security systems.

The company says no children under 13 can ride -- even with a parent. That's more restrictive than the Model Y SUVs it's using as robotaxis.

It’s officially the Ternus era at Apple.   Tim Cook stepped down as CEO this week, handing the company to former hardware chief John Ternus, whose first memo promised a “huge launch next week” — timing that puts Apple’s next iPhone event on his desk before he’s even settled in. Cook isn’t going far, though: he’s staying on as Executive Chairman, focused on the kind of policy […]

A federal judge temporarily barred an X rival from using the Twitter name, but found that X was likely to have abandoned the “Tweet” trademark and bird logo. The startup has since relaunched as Tweet.app.

An LLM can generate an answer. But an AI Agent needs to do something beyond generating text. The important distinction is the layer around the model: LLM → Instructions → Tools → State/Memory → Permissions → Control Loop For example, imagine an agent that needs to retrieve the current weather. The LLM itself does not magically call the weather API. A typical flow looks like this: The application defines an available tool. The model decides that the tool is required. The mo...

Core claim: A green run after an agent patch is not validation. It is a zero exit code from a suite the model was allowed to edit. Route every failing nodeid into one of three planes—property, fixture, or freeze—before any generator may touch a test file. Reject the patch if a case changes planes, even when CI is green. That rule is dull. It blocks the cheapest cheats: deleted asserts, rewritten goldens, and a fresh pytest.skip . Green is the wrong oracle Agent patches opt...

TL;DR — I gave a team of AI coding agents a real kanban board (Kanboard) and a real git server (Gitea), wired together by an MCP orchestrator (Marcus), and had them build a content management system one ticket at a time. I didn't write code. What I did do was read every diff before it merged and catch the decisions that mattered — a weak session store, a permission check that wasn't actually checking permissions, an XSS hole in comment rendering — while each ticket was still open. That's the ...

How to Deploy DynamoDB Tables on AWS Using Terraform Infrastructure as Code allows us to define cloud infrastructure using configuration files instead of creating resources manually through the AWS Console. In this tutorial, we'll use Terraform to create and manage two Amazon DynamoDB tables: Orders Products By the end, you'll have both tables deployed to AWS and managed entirely through Terraform. 🎯 What We Are Building The final infrastructure wi...

When your SaaS product connects to the third-party tools your customers already use, such as a CRM, a calendar, or a ticketing system, enterprise deals often require that data move between the two within seconds. If a deal closes in HubSpot, the customer expects your product to reflect it before the next polling cycle runs. Polling every API on a tight schedule is slow and expensive at scale. Webhooks reduce that delay and cost, but they can arrive late, more than once, or not at all. Webhook...

There are two kinds of provider in this field. One explains what you could do with AI. The other operates something with it and therefore knows where it breaks. The difference does not show in the sales conversation, it shows eight weeks later. When a system runs for four months straight, problems appear that are in no manual: storage grows and nobody clears it. A model suddenly answers differently than before. An access token expires, and the failure does not arrive as a failure but as a qui...

I audited every article on this account on 2026-09-04. 63 published. 24 of them contain no link to any repository at all. Those 24 hold 1,076 of 2,310 lifetime views. That is 47%. The single most-read piece on the account, 181 views, is one of them. Every one of the 24 was published between 2026-06-20 and 2026-07-09. Every one of the 29 published from 2026-07-10 onward carries a link. The habit was real and it was never written down The streak is genuine. 29 for 29 is not l...

"Building builders, not just learners." Technology is changing faster than ever, and cloud computing has become the backbone of today's digital world. From global companies to ambitious startups, organisations everywhere depend on the cloud to build applications, manage data, and deliver smart, scalable solutions. Recognising how important these technologies have become, the AWS Student Builder Group (SBG) at Graphic Era Deemed to be University was established in 2025 with a simple v...

How to connect LLM agents to verified African examination content, deliver progressive Socratic hints, and diagnose student misconceptions without hallucinating. Large Language Models (LLMs) like Claude 4.6 Opus and GPT-4 possess formidable general reasoning capabilities. However, when deployed in African educational applications, they frequently suffer from two critical pitfalls: syllabus hallucinations and premature answer spoiling. A student preparing for JAMB Chemistry who asks an AI ...

I like vibe coding. I'm not here to shame anyone out of it. Some of the best things I've shipped started as a half-formed idea typed into a chat box at 11pm. But if you've done this for more than a weekend, you know the shape of the problem. The first prompt is magic. The fifth one is negotiation. By the fifteenth you're re-explaining a decision you already made twice, the agent has quietly renamed your data model, and you're one "fix the header" away from deleting the folder and starting ove...

If you're an Elm developer writing Haskell and you like elm/json , you might like dwayne/hs-json-codec . hs-json-codec provides JSON decoders and encoders for Haskell in the style of elm/json . It's built on dwayne/hs-json-parser , a general-purpose JSON parser and printer that I also wrote. I built both libraries because I wanted them for dwayne/elm2nix , but they can be used in any Haskell project. In this post, I'll introduce their APIs and show how I use them in elm2nix...
