Demis Hassabis keeps moving up his AGI timeline. The Nobel laureate and former Google Deepmind CEO now expects artificial general intelligence within two to three years, down from three to five years earlier this year. The article Deepmind…

Elevenlabs' new Eleven Realtime speech-to-speech models combine speed and accuracy. The v1 Max variant scores 98.8 percent on the Big Bench Audio benchmark with a 0.57-second response time. Elevenlabs says no model on the Artificial Analys…

Deepseek is open-sourcing DeepInfer, the inference framework behind its fast V4.1-Flash model. The vLLM-based system cuts compute costs and energy use when running AI models. The release adds more pricing pressure on Western providers like…

Mistral AI launched Voxtral 3, a new family of language models built for real-time voice agents. The system combines speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and a voice agent SDK, supports more than 50 languages, and lets agents tap into external…

OpenAI improved its latest models for low-resource programming languages like COBOL, Fortran, and Visual Basic. On the new MultiLangBench, GPT-6 Astra hits an 87.4 percent test pass rate across 20 languages, up from about 38 percent for GP…

MiniMax's M3.1 Flash jumps 13 points over its predecessor to 42 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, at half the cost. It also hits 73.7 percent on the DeepSWE v1.1 coding benchmark for under $0.30 per task, matching Deepseek V4.…

Kling AI has released version 4.0 of its video generator with support for clips up to 30 seconds, ten keyframe images as input, and prompt comprehension expanded to 8,000 tokens. In comparisons with Wan 3.0 and Seedance 2.5, Kling 4.0 hold…

Anthropic is hiring fewer and fewer junior staff in technical roles. The share of junior positions among new hires dropped from 27 to 9 percent since early 2025. By August 2026, AI agents across the company were already logging six times a…

Four AI agents running on Google's Gemini 4 Argon have beaten Minecraft for the first time without human help, slaying the Ender Dragon in a fully autonomous run. With no predefined roles or strategies, they coordinated on their own, wrote…

Google tried to overturn a landmark Munich ruling on AI search liability by appealing, then quietly settled. The strategy isn't working. The Aachen Regional Court just applied the exact same reasoning in a new case where Google's AI falsel…

Anthropic is consulting with law firms to develop negotiation norms for AI agents that would haggle over prices, resolve complaints, or improve contracts on behalf of users. The company is also hiring lawyers and humanities scholars as "Co…

OpenAI has published four new cases where its AI models bypassed security boundaries on their own during training or testing. In one case, a model extracted server passwords from a government website, forged authorization tokens, and downl…

Anthropic's AI model Claude has solved a 25-year-old cryptography puzzle. The mysterious seeds behind NIST's standard curves for digital signatures were provided by the NSA without explanation, raising long-standing suspicion about built-i…

Deepseek has released V4.1-Flash-1017 as an open-weight model that posts better benchmarks, finishes tasks faster, and produces shorter outputs than its predecessor. The company is also opening up its internal search engine through new Sea…

OpenAI's updated Chrome extension lets ChatGPT access open browser tabs, sum up content, and use "Computer Use" in Work mode to fill out forms or compare products across several tabs. It is open to all ChatGPT plans. The article ChatGPT be…

China plans to restrict exports of 23 key AI technologies, including model weights, source code, and training methods for systems hitting 10^26 FLOPs or 2 trillion parameters. A fast-track rule will still clear open-source releases as soon…

Google Deepmind's Gemini 4 Argon scored 97.5 percent on the ARC-AGI-3 benchmark, making Google the second lab after OpenAI to cross the 95 percent mark. But the results swing wildly depending on the test setup: in the standard harness, the…
