Researchers find large language models use a simple mechanism to retrieve stored knowledge when they respond to a user prompt. These mechanisms can be leveraged to see what the model knows about different subjects and possibly to correct false information it has stored.
A paper from Anthropic describing persona vectors and their applications to monitoring and controlling model behavior.
Model architectures, data generation, training paradigms, and unified frameworks inspired by LLMs.
AI is doing to programming what framework-brain did to the frontend before. Deskilling, or just working at a higher level of abstraction?
There was a time not too long ago when using Linux entailed some professional risk 1 . First there was compatibility: you may not have been able to render a Word document or PowerPoint correctly, and you might have had to trust Open Office’s export capability to render docs the way you wanted. There might have been…
Chinese AI lab Moonshot AI announced Kimi K3 this morning, describing it as their “most capable model to date, with 2.8 trillion parameters”. It’s currently available via their website and …

LM Studio 0.4.0 introduced llmster and the lms CLI. Here is how I set up Gemma 4 26B for local inference on macOS that can be used with Claude Code.
An on-demand recording of our May 20 event is available. Today, at a special event on our new Microsoft campus, we introduced the world to a new category of Windows PCs designed for AI, Copilot+ PCs. Copilot+ PCs are the fastest, most intelligent Windows PCs ever built. With powerful new silicon capable of an…

Announcement for the sunsetting of Gemini CLI in favor of Antigravity CLI, a more robust, agent-first platform designed to handle the multi-agent complexities of 2026.
We’re releasing Gemma 4 quantization-aware training checkpoints, reducing memory requirements and improving on-device performance.
Geoffrey Hinton is a legendary computer scientist . . . Naturally, people paid attention when Hinton declared in 2016, “We should stop training radiologists now, it’s just completely obvious within five years deep learning is going to do better than radiologists.” The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the…
There is something legendary and historic happening in software engineering, right now as we speak, and yet most of you don't realize at all how big it is.
Almost a decade ago, I released a hackintosh guide on running macOS 10.14 through a VM with an x86 host. A "Hackintosh" is the feat of running macOS on non-Apple hardware, and has a history dating back to the late 1980s. At the time KVM and PCI
There's a moment in the movie Good Will Hunting which perfectly summarizes all the problems with AI slop and online noise and infinite advice content. Sean (played by Robin Williams) is sitting next to Will (Matt Damon) on a bench in Boston Public Garden. I live here, so I know it well. The area
Learn how to build with Gemma 3n, a mobile-first architecture, MatFormer technology, Per-Layer Embeddings, and new audio and vision encoders.
Based on its own charter, OpenAI should surrender the race
Adam Kues used a $200 GPT5.6 Sol Ultra subscription to discover a pre-authentication SQL injection and full RCE exploit chain in WordPress Core – a chain that chains a batch API desync, cache poisoning, changeset abuse, and hook injection into a complete takeover.
As we continue to focus our AI research and development on solving increasingly complex problems, one of the most significant and challenging shifts we’ve experienced is the sheer scale of co…
A full of spectrum of infringment
On agent orchestration patterns, why design and critical thinking are the new bottlenecks, and whether we should let go of looking at code
We’re launching a classifier trained to distinguish between AI-written and human-written text.
Writing code is easier than ever. Being a software engineer is harder than ever. The paradox nobody talks about, and what engineers and leaders should do.
OpenAI just released its first ever open-source large language models, called gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b. You can talk to them here. Are they good models…
