Verizon reports on a three-stage approach for businesses to test AI agents (crawl, walk, run), ensuring proper oversight and access limitations before granting independence.
The deal struck by Oracle and its billionaire chairman Larry Ellison would have provided Tencent with access to up to 100,000 AI chips located at Asia-based data centers over a five-year term.
OpenAI is expanding its push into AI-powered software development with plans to acquire startup Pierre Computer Company, Inc. Pierre is best known for its Code Storage platform and open-source tools that help developers navigate code repositories.
Meta has acquired Conductor, an AI coding startup that lets software engineers manage multiple coding agents simultaneously, sources familiar with the deal tell Axios exclusively. Why it matters: Meta is joining OpenAI and other AI giants in a race to own the tools developers use,
Learning a universal action representation from video requires modeling dynamics that are consistent across different executions of the same action yet invariant to changes in embodiment and appearance. Existing latent action models infer actions from visual transitions, but their representations often entangle the underlying action with irrelevant visual variations, limiting transfer across embodiments. We introduce DreamX, which repurposes a pretrained video diffusion model as a universal latent action learner. Our approach extracts compact latent actions from the video model's rich spatiotemporal features, compressing each latent video frame by $\boldsymbol{300\times}$ ($\boldsymbol{1{,}200 \rightarrow 4}$ tokens). In addition, by leveraging the video model's generative prior, these latent actions capture action-relevant dynamics disentangled from visual appearance. The resulting latent space serves as a shared action interface across embodiments (human and robot), environments, and action parameterizations. On LARY-Bench, DreamX achieves state-of-the-art performance among latent action models. Moreover, actions encoded in one setting remain effective in another: the latent…
Pika H3 Flex is a post-trained H3 model, designed to give professional creators the flexibility and speed to explore with precision. Optimized for greater control, it generates video with synchronized audio in six sampling steps and supports up to 12 reference inputs, with shot…
Agentic AI extends LLM security beyond generated content to persistent state, autonomous actions, tool use, and interactions with humans and other agents. Existing threat classifications often emphasize individual dimensions, obscuring connections among entry points, affected…
Mechanistic interpretability defines features as the fundamental units of a neural network and circuits as the weighted subgraphs that carry out its computation. Because individual neurons are polysemantic, Cross-Layer Transcoders (CLTs) were introduced as a way to approximate…
This paper presents a probabilistic perspective on large language models (LLMs), developed with the aim of bringing together, in a single self-contained account, tools that are usually treated separately across the literature. LLMs are described through probability measures on…
Automated kernel vulnerability reproduction is essential for bug triage, patch validation, and regression testing, but still lacks an effective and efficient solution. The core challenge is twofold: a reproducer must first recover the trigger scaffold needed to reach the…
