Gemini 3.5 Flash Looks Good For How Fast It Is
Google once again has a model worth at least some consideration.

View the official memo here. An internal model at OpenAI has autonomously disproved a central conjecture in discrete geometry, a mathematical field with applications in cryptography, wireless device communication, and medical imaging. The proof relates to a famous question posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. It has been verified by prominent mathematicians in a companion […] The post The Erdős Proof and AI Capabilities appeared first on Machine Intelligence Research Institute.
We kicked off our new weekly series This Week in AI on Monday, and we covered a lot of ground in 30 minutes, including an AI model that found security holes faster than decades of human auditing, a data center in Utah the size of two Manhattans, and a practical argument for why the harness […]
You should scream to your congresspeople
FTC to Require Cox Media Group, Two Other Firms to Pay Nearly $1 Million to Settle Charges They Deceived Customers About “Active Listening” AI-Powered Marketing Service Back in 2024 Cox Media Group were caught trying to sell advertisers packages based on "active listening", with this deck which claimed: Smart devices capture real-time intent data by listening to our conversations Advertisers can pair this voice-data with behavioral data to target in-market consumers I wrote about this in…
..and an open-source framework that's making it happen.
We just announced the first release of Datasette Agent, a new extensible AI assistant for Datasette. I've been working on my LLM Python library for just over three years now, and Datasette Agent represents the moment that LLM and Datasette finally come together. I'm really excited about it! Datasette Agent provides a conversational interface for asking questions of the data you have stored in Datasette. Add the datasette-agent-charts plugin and it can generate charts of your data as well. The…
Release: datasette-agent-sprites 0.1a0 A Datasette Agent plugin for running commands in a Fly Sprites sandbox. Tags: sandboxing, datasette, fly, datasette-agent
Always read the fine print
Release: datasette-agent-charts 0.1a2 "View SQL query" buttons below rendered charts. Tags: datasette, datasette-agent
For over a century, both the prestige and budget of a corporate department have been measured by a single crude metric: headcount. If you manage 500 people, you’re a “distinguished leader.” If you manage five, you’re a footnote. This “empire of headcount” has governed everything from office square footage to C-suite influence. It’s the fundamental […]
Release: datasette-agent 0.1a3 "View SQL query" buttons for both visible tables and collapsed SQL result tool calls. Don't display empty reasoning chunks Improved handling of truncated responses - table still displays to the user even if the SQL results were truncated when showing the agent.

Even in a relatively quiet period, AI is out there creating new knowledge.
The following article originally appeared on the Elevate newsletter and is being reposted here with the author’s permission. Peek under the hood of most “production agents” shipping today and you won’t find intelligence. You’ll find custom plumbing, fragile session logic, shared service accounts, and a security model held together by hope. This can be so […]
We have the ability to use compute resources to support our proprietary AI applications (such as Grok 5, which is currently being trained at COLOSSUS II), while also providing access to select compute capacity to third-party customers. For example, in May 2026, we entered into Cloud Services Agreements with Anthropic PBC (“Anthropic”), an AI research and development public benefit corporation, with respect to access to compute capacity across COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II. Pursuant to these…
