Researchers at Meta, the University of Chicago, and UC Berkeley have developed a new framework that addresses the high costs, infrastructure complexity, and unreliable feedback associated with using reinforcement learning (RL) to train large language model (LLM) agents. The framework, DreamGym, simulates an RL environment to train agents for complex applications. As it progresses through the...
Update: A day after this article was published, xAI unveiled Grok 4.1 access through its API for $0.20 per 1 input million tokens (or $0.05 for cached input) and output tokens at $0.50 per million, making it among the cheaper available frontier AI model options.

Writer, a San Francisco-based artificial intelligence startup, is launching a unified AI agent platform designed to let any employee automate complex business workflows without writing code — a capability the company says distinguishes it from consumer-oriented tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT.The platform, called Writer Agent, combines chat-based assistance with autonomous task execution...
Microsoft is fundamentally restructuring its Windows operating system to become what executives call the first "agentic OS," embedding the infrastructure needed for autonomous AI agents to operate securely at enterprise scale — a watershed moment in the evolution of personal computing that positions the 40-year-old platform as the foundation for a new era of human-machine collaboration.The...
After more than a month of rumors and feverish speculation — including Polymarket wagering on the release date — Google today unveiled Gemini 3, its newest proprietary frontier model family and the company’s most comprehensive AI release since the Gemini line debuted in 2023. The models are proprietary (closed-source), available exclusively through Google products, developer platforms, and paid...
Semantic intelligence is a critical element of actually understanding what data means and how it can be used.Microsoft is now deeply integrating semantics and ontologies into its Fabric data platform with its new Fabric IQ technology that it debuted at the Microsoft Ignite conference Tuesday.Fabric IQ is a semantic intelligence layer designed to address a fundamental problem with enterprise AI...
In the winter of 2022, as the tech world was becoming mesmerized by the sudden, explosive arrival of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Benjamin Alarie faced a pivotal choice. His legal tech startup, Blue J, had a respectable business built on the AI of a bygone era, serving hundreds of law firms with predictive models. But it had hit a ceiling.Alarie, a tenured tax law professor at the University of Toronto, saw...
Managing and maintaining AI systems remains a challenge for many enterprises, particularly with the potential for agentic sprawl to expose businesses to risky entry points. Microsoft entered the observability fray with the launch of Agent 365 during its annual Ignite conference Tuesday. It described Agent 365 as the control plane for AI agents, serving as an observability layer for enterprises...
Google Antigravity introduces agent-first architecture for asynchronous, verifiable coding workflows
Google launched yet another coding agent platform Tuesday, this time focused on developer teams collaborating to create agents that can execute complex tasks automatically, in a way that moves agents from being remotely controlled to actually independent.The platform, called Antigravity, is powered by Gemini 3 and is now available in public preview with “generous rate limits on Gemini 3 Pro usage...
What separates the SOCs getting results from their AI strategies from those that don't begins with CISOs who take ownership of AI initiatives and anticipate roadblocks early, systematically demolishing legacy walls that get in the way.The disconnect between AI's promise and delivery dominated discussions at Forrester's 2025 Security...
