AI agents, frameworks, and agentic systems.
At a Microsoft event in San Francisco on Wednesday, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella outlined how NVIDIA and Microsoft are co-engineering hardware and software for AI agents to run on Windows PCs. NVIDIA was founded because of Windows, Huang said. Now AI agents are coming to Windows. “If you […]
Training AI agents with reinforcement learning can be challenging because their tools, context, and decision-making are managed by complex frameworks. Agent Lightning connects existing agents to RL training, making it easier to improve them without rebuilding them. The post Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses appeared first on Microsoft Research .
Anthropic's new Claude Haiku 5.5 crushes its predecessor in benchmarks, jumping from 15.7 to 72.4 percent on the OSWorld computer use test. Token prices drop by up to 90 percent, though a new tokenizer eats into some of those savings by consuming more tokens per task. The article Claude Haiku 5.5 arrives with massive price cuts proving the AI pricing arms race is far from over appeared first on The Decoder .
Telecom operators are increasingly building their AI strategies on open models — and the reasons go beyond mere cost. Open models give telcos the ability to trust, control and customize AI across their most critical workloads — from autonomous networks to customer care. NVIDIA’s latest State of AI in Telecommunications report reflects this shift, with […]
Learn how OpenAI and Ironclad are training and evaluating AI agents on complex contracting workflows to advance computer use for professional work.
At today's Windows and Surface event, Microsoft showed off an upgrade to its Copilot AI system that will give it access to local files on your PC and the ability to take actions across the OS. It's part of an idea Microsoft is calling "Hybrid Intelligence," where apps and tools rely on a mix of local and cloud AI models to accomplish tasks efficiently. To show off how Hybrid Intelligence works, Jacob Andreou, Microsoft's EVP of Copilot, walked through a video demo onstage asking Microsoft's Autopilot tool to help with filing taxes. Andreou told the AI agent that he got an email from his accoun
Local AI is becoming more useful by the token. As AI agents move from experiments into everyday development, increasingly capable open models are shrinking to fit on more devices, giving builders more to run locally. Coming this month, NVIDIA DGX Spark will be available with 64GB of unified memory from top manufacturer partners — Acer, […]
AI factories are built by the megawatt, even by the gigawatt. Each megawatt factory costs roughly $60 million, and AI factory operators will only commit capital on that scale with a clear view of the return on investment. Three key things shape AI factory returns: Earning capacity: What the factory could earn in a year […]
Personal AI agents promise to shop, book flights, and make reservations for you. But deliberate blocks and anti-bot defenses are getting in the way, leaving consumers caught in the middle. A new standard aims to help.
For all the data that AI systems continually amass and analyze, enterprise AI agents often suffer from a curious shortcoming: a lack of knowledge. More than data, knowledge is the understanding of what the data means in the context of individual organizations. AI agents need this understanding to reason about situations, make decisions, and ultimately…
In 2026, the question for enterprise AI is no longer whether predictive models can outperform statistical forecasts—that argument is settled. The big question now is how to enable predictive systems to act on their own conclusions without drifting from business intent. The frontier has moved from prediction to autonomous decision making, and the gap between…
Building on nearly a decade of co-engineering, CoreWeave has built NVIDIA compute, networking and software into a cloud purpose-built for AI that’s still returning on investment across multiple generations of deployment. Now, CoreWeave is bringing the next generation of NVIDIA infrastructure to production. At CoreWeave Fully Connected, running this week in San Francisco, CoreWeave announced […]
