At our inaugural YCML at Startup School, YC Partner Ankit Gupta speaks with Mark Žnidar about predictive models that work directly with relational databases without flattening their tables or manually engineering features. The method represents a relational database as a graph,…
WeatherNext enables accurate cyclone forecasts that can give an extra day of warning. Now we are open sourcing the model.
This is insanity. We just got an amazing free AI system with deep seek flash on the lower end. Super quick, super cheap. But what about the open frontier models? This is Qwen 3.8 Max. And look, OpenAI and Anthropic are getting challenged there, too. And not only that, but the…
Google Antigravity 2.0 is your standalone desktop command center, designed to run autonomous AI agents in parallel. Watch this video to see AI agents plan, build, test, and execute complex workflows simultaneously. Antigravity also comes as CLI, an IDE, and SDK. This site is a…
Lithium-ion batteries are the leading choice in today’s electric vehicle and battery energy storage system industries, but they contain a number of critical minerals — including lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite — that are considered essential for economic and national…
Here are Google’s latest AI updates from July 2026
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) “Covered List,” originally published in 2021, identifies communications equipment and services that it says pose a threat to national security. On 28 July, the FCC added mobile, communicating robots weighing more than 2 kilograms…
A one-size-fits-all approach likely isn’t the best strategy when designing artificial intelligence systems that assist users in disease diagnosis. A new study by researchers at MIT and elsewhere found that, while AI assistance generally improved the accuracy of non-experts and…
Alexander “Sasha” Rakhlin PhD ’06, the Distinguished Professor in Data, Systems, and Society at the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS); a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at MIT; and a principal investigator in the MIT Laboratory for Information and…
Всем привет, это снова Антон и сегодня у нас короткий хотел у меня причём в сценарии написано короткий ролик, но мы все знаем, что такое мои короткие ролики, которые планируются ложиться хотя бы в полчаса, в итоге растягивается на полтора. В общем, скажу так, сегодня ролик будет…
For a while there, it seemed as though robotics as a whole was stuck in a mad rush towards building humanoid robots mostly because it was very possible (and very lucrative) to do so, even without near-term goals that were necessarily realistic. Some of the magic of those first…
Search the fit on Google and hit “Try it on” to see it on you before the delivery truck gets involved.
Kaggle’s AI Agents Intensive with Google brought learners together in a no-cost course to build and deploy the next frontier of AI.
Every AI agent needs access to knowledge. But that knowledge lives everywhere. Databases. SharePoint. OneLake. MCP servers. Even the web. And every agent ends up rebuilding the same retrieval logic again and again.This can get… really messy. Now with Microsoft Foundry IQ, things…
It is simply incredible what just happened. Deep Seek's two latest AI systems appeared just about three months ago, and the quicker flash model is getting an update already, and this is unbelievable. I don't even know where to start. One, the new flash model is way better than…
This is one of the most fun papers I've read in a while. You will love this one. So, what if you knew every athletic move perfectly, but had no idea when to use which? A perfect vault is useless if the table moves away. This is the strange problem of teaching parkour to a…
Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your friends at IEEE Spectrum robotics. We also post a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next few months. Please send us your events for inclusion. Actuate 2026: 18–19 August 2026,…
Daniela Rus, director of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and the Panasonic Professor of Computer Science, has received the 2026 High-Tech Prize of the Bavarian Minister-President for her contributions to robotics, artificial intelligence,…
This spring, 25 MIT students and postdocs traveled to Washington to meet with congressional staffers and advocate for sustained federal investment in scientific research. With recent cuts to National Science Foundation programs and continued uncertainty surrounding the federal…
Thwip over to Google to see what happens 🔎
Gemini Robotics ER 2 helps robots reason, collaborate, and solve real-world tasks. It represents a step change in video understanding, tool orchestration, and multi-robot collaboration for robotic applications.
The ban largely affects U.S. imports from China, which currently dominates the global market for making humanoid robots and solar inverters.
Our newest music generation model, Lyria 3.5, delivers significant advancements across musicality, lyrics, and vocal quality, empowering you to craft richer tracks. We’r…
Before the advancement of scientific data storage and collaboration via the cloud, medical investigators seeking health research breakthroughs had to overcome significant obstacles to collaboration and key clinical data gathering. Data were siloed and difficult to distribute, so…
This is insane. I cannot believe what I'm seeing here. This is a new AI system, Kimi K3, that can code up a mostly working copy of a full Mac OS operating system. Also, a cute Animal Crossing style game, other kinds of games, and so much more. And what are you seeing what I am…
We’re announcing even more new capabilities in Managed Agents in Gemini API so developers can build reliable, production-ready agents.
Imagine running your fingertip over the surface of a U.S. penny. You would feel the ridges of the raised letters and numbers, Abe Lincoln’s bearded side profile, and, if it’s tails, the fluted columns of the Lincoln Memorial. Getting a robot to sense the same things is an…
From feet to fingertips — we are teaching robots intelligent whole-body control, fine dexterity, and teamwork to complete a broad range of complex tasks.
These AI features can help you craft a menu, design a tablescape, and handle other party-planning tasks.
