This is the best human-interaction model I've ever seen in action. I got early access to Tavus. I tested it. Judge for yourself.

A fine-tuned model can outperform frontier models and be cheaper and faster to run. Literally, every company I've met wants this. I want you to see these results from fine-tuning Qwen3 4B on AWS. It smokes both the out-of-the-box model and Claude Sonnet 4.6.

This pareto-26.10-preview model is pretty cool. It does something I haven't seen before: It basically combines multiple models behind one API response: 1. You send a request 2. Pareto runs several models to produce answers 3. It then evaluates the answers and selects the best 4. It returns that answer back to you You don't need to build a comparison/selection system since it's built in when you use this model. It's also cheap: $0.80/MTk in and $3.20/Mtk out. That's cheaper than Sol and 10x cheaper than Fable or Astra.

This is the dream job for anyone looking to become an automation engineer in AI: You'll join a team, learn its processes, and build automations for their work: 1. You'll meet with the people who are doing the work 2. You'll find and connect the systems needed to complete it 3. You'll build and validate the workflows 4. You'll teach the team how to extend what you built 5. Pick a new problem, and repeat The job: • Full-time • 2 years of experience • Working knowledge of APIs and IAM • On-site in San Francisco, New York, Austin, or Charleston • $105,000 - $170,000/year + equity

We are always talking about the dark side of AI and how bad people will use it to exploit vulnerabilities everywhere. But there's always an antidote. These guys built a platform that uses agents to protect your systems from attacks: • It builds a map of your potential vulnerabilities • It looks for ways an attacker could find a path to your sensitive data • It recommends changes to protect your system

It was only a matter of time before we brought the first AI and real, licensed attorneys together. This is really cool for anyone who needs a law firm: • Send a contract using Slack • Approve a flat fee • AI gathers business context • AI helps to speed up every task • A human attorney reviews everything • That same human remains responsible for the work • You get your contract back

I think Simulations will be huge (and it's probably the best feature of this release). Basically, this will let you simulate how your agent works across real production conversations. It will score interactions and mock anything that costs money, so you can test everything end-to-end.

The biggest advantage of using this is how much system-specific work it packages for you. You can use Ampersand to connect an agent to your customer's Salesforce. You configure the object and field mappings, and Ampersand applies them while handling API calls, authentication, token refreshes, and retries. If you've ever tried to deal with two different Salesforce accounts, you know how painful this is.

The #1 video-to-video model in the Physics-IQ Verified benchmark is finally live! (Their research preview is) Odyssey 3 Pro is a world model, and nobody beats it for physical accuracy. You can use this model to control a robot, drive a car, play a video game, or pilot a drone. • It takes visual observations from the world • Uses these observations to learn how things work • Then maps that knowledge to the system's physical controls

Here is a complete family of open-weight, small models for text, vision, audio, and structured decisions. They are around 2B parameters. You can easily fine-tune these models and start using them in your application.

You gotta try this out. Here are some fragments from my conversation with "Vanessa." It won't necessarily fool me into thinking I'm talking to a real person, but holy moly, this is the closest we've gotten, for sure.

This app will help you generate videos with AI, but it does something really interesting: It will keep a record of every contribution you make. ← This is important! 1. It helps you generate and edit videos. 2. It checks for potential IP issues, scanning for recognizable logos, brands, and characters. 3. It keeps track of human creative decisions and changes and separates them from everything AI does. That gives you evidence of what you contributed to the finished work, which can help support a copyright claim.
