Most companies still rent AI by the token, build on someone else’s roadmap, and hope the next model release does not disrupt their systems. At ODSC AI West 2026, @Prof_OZ, Head of AI Developer Educati

Part of the challenge with the AI math advances is the current air of secrecy around them. We don't know how Astra/Fable/Mythos etc are trained. We know many mathematicians have been paid to create tr

Sudden silence on metrics that used to be shared regularly is a bad sign. If this post below is correct, it doesn’t look great for enthusiastic projections around Anthropic’s Q3. (Author below leaves
Thanks for the recognition. We'll keep building! 🚀 Big news: Qwen3.8-Max by @Alibaba_Qwen just landed at #4 on the Frontend Code Arena leaderboard with a score of 1,668! With 1,668 points, Qwen3.8-Max

Try Qwen3.8-Max on Hermes Agent and you will have to doubt on how much these open frontier models have caught up with frontier closed models. These new open models are insanely good. Meet Qwen3.8-Max:

what does the 'last human code review' look like? to @itamar_mar, ceo and founder of @QodoAI, it looks like two agents talking to each other, backed by a context engine specific to your organization.
When an agent starts with shared context, more people can get reliable answers. When truth is shared, AI becomes infrastucture. Read about how our internal truth layer drives our teams at Replit: http
