A three-year licensing deal will let Sora and ChatGPT Image users create content with over 200 characters across Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars starting next year.

Tensor R-Fork is a zero-copy method for rapidly transferring model weights between running instances using GPU-to-GPU data transfer. It cuts loading time, reduces disk/DRAM usage, and keeps inference services uninterrupted.

This post proposes different research problems in machine learning research. The ideas include design-based machine learning, a theory of competitive testing, going beyond average case evaluation certainty equivalence in LLM reasoning, and open source, open corpus language models. The research areas are all doable, there just needs to be a will to do it.

AI adoption held flat for 45% of businesses in November, and there were slight declines in the finance and technology sectors. Adoption rose in several industries with relatively low adoption rates, like retail, construction, and manufacturing. The slowdown comes after a rapid run-up in adoption rates in 2025. The effects of the latest advancements seem to have faded. Another run-up in adoption will likely require technological gains or implementation gains.

Gemini Deep Research is now available to developers via the new Interactions API. It is launching alongside DeepSearchQA, a benchmark for complex web search tasks. Gemini Deep Research is an agent optimized for running context gathering and synthesis tasks. It uses Gemini 3 Pro as its reasoning core. The agent autonomously navigates complex information landscapes with high accuracy by scaling multi-step reinforcement learning for search.

The Collatz conjecture is one of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics. It asks whether repeating two simple arithmetic operations will eventually transform every positive integer into 1. This article looks at what happens when a transformer is trained on the unsolved puzzle to study how models fail.

Cursor released a new visual editor that integrates design and code within the Cursor Browser. Users can drag UI elements, inspect props, and make changes interactively.

Long context windows are overrated for agentic coding. Amp's team ships features using clusters of small threads averaging 80k tokens each rather than jamming everything into one million-token mega-thread.

The customer Broadcom signed a $10 billion order for custom chips in September has been revealed to be Anthropic. Broadcom will deliver entire server racks to Anthropic, not just chips. Anthropic has placed an additional $11 billion order with Broadcom in the latest quarter. The deal has drawn significant investor attention amid the AI infrastructure boom.

OpenAI's CEO of Applications recently told reporters that ChatGPT's 'adult mode' will debut during the first quarter of next year. The company had cut back on the chatbot's personality in response to growing concerns about user mental health. It has since added additional parental controls and new efforts to age-gate younger users. The company is still testing its age verification technology to ensure it can accurately identify teens and not misidentify adults before officially rolling out the split experience.
