Alibaba's Qwen team just dropped a new open-weight model, Qwen3.6-27B, and it's a game-changer for AI coding agents. This surprisingly small model is outperforming giants, and it has a clever new trick for remembering its own thought process.

Scientists have found a natural protein in our bodies, intelectin-2, that acts like a double-agent for our gut. It both strengthens our intestinal barrier and takes out harmful bacteria, offering a brand-new way to think about fighting infections.

For decades, designing computer chips was a secret art reserved for a few tech giants. Now, AI is acting as a co-pilot, making it possible for smaller companies and even startups to create their own custom silicon.

Forget AI agents that use your computer. Researchers from Meta AI have a wild new idea: a "Neural Computer" where the AI model *is* the entire machine—computation, memory, and interface all in one.

Everyone's talking about AI chips, but the real secret sauce is something called 'advanced packaging.' Intel is going all-in on this surprisingly critical tech, and it might just be their ticket to dominating the next decade of computing.

Researchers at Google DeepMind have built an AI that doesn't just run code—it rewrites its own algorithms. See how this new system, AlphaEvolve, discovered novel strategies for complex games that outperform human-designed ones.

Ever tried to edit something out of a video and been left with a mess? A new open-source AI from Netflix, called VOID, might be the solution. It doesn't just paint over objects; it understands physics to make the scene look truly natural.

Forget AI models that feel stitched together. Alibaba's new Qwen3.5 Omni is a 'native' multimodal AI that was born to understand text, audio, and video seamlessly. Let's break down how this changes everything.

Forget normal road tests. Waymo is using a new AI, built on Google's Genie 3, to create a virtual world where its cars can practice for the craziest "what if" scenarios imaginable—from tornadoes to pedestrians in T-Rex costumes.

In a world of giant AI models, Liquid AI just dropped something different: a tiny 350M parameter model that was trained on a mind-boggling 28 trillion tokens. Here's why this small but mighty AI could change how we think about intelligence on our devices.

You've probably seen that terrifying graph showing AI's exponential growth. But the real story is more complicated. Let's break it down, plus answer your biggest questions about the future of nuclear energy.
