Has this stealth startup finally cracked the code on enterprise AI agent reliability? Meet AUI’s Apollo-1

For more than a decade, conversational AI has promised human-like assistants that can do more than chat. Yet even as large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude learn to reason, explain, and code, one critical category of interaction remains largely unsolved — reliably completing tasks for people outside of chat. Even the best …

IBM claims 45% productivity gains with Project Bob, its multi-model IDE that orchestrates LLMs with full repository context

For many enterprises, there continue to be barriers to fully adopting and benefiting from agentic AI. IBM is betting the blocker isn’t building AI agents but governing them in production. At its TechXchange 2025 conference today, IBM unveiled a series of capabilities designed to bridge the gap: Project Bob, an AI-first IDE that orchestrates multiple …

OpenAI unveils AgentKit that lets developers drag and drop to build AI agents

OpenAI launched an agent builder that the company hopes will eliminate fragmented tools and make it easier for enterprises to utilize OpenAI’s system to create agents. AgentKit, announced during OpenAI’s DevDay in San Francisco, enables developers and enterprises to build agents and add chat capabilities in one place, potentially competing with platforms like Zapier. By …

From Silicon Valley to Nairobi: What the Global South’s AI leapfrogging teaches tech leaders

When I write about the cognitive migration now underway, brought about by the rapid advance of gen AI, I do so from the perspective of someone who has spent four decades in the technology industry. My own journey runs from coding business applications in Fortran and COBOL to systems analysis and design, IT project management, …

OpenAI announces Apps SDK allowing ChatGPT to launch and run third party apps like Zillow, Canva, Spotify

OpenAI’s annual conference for third-party developers, DevDay, kicked off with a bang today as co-founder and CEO Sam Altman announced a new “Apps SDK” that makes it “possible to build apps inside of ChatGPT,” including paid apps, which companies can charge users for using OpenAI’s recently unveiled Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP). In other words, instead …

Stopping breaches at machine speed demands agents, not alerts

Presented by DXC Technology The sheer volume and sophistication of incoming threats today has dwarfed attacks from just six months ago, let alone two years ago, because adversaries have leveled up with AI. Naturally, security operations and analysts are under pressure, facing mounting alert volumes and false positives, while organizations scramble to support them amidst …

Replacing coders with AI? Why Bill Gates, Sam Altman and experience say you shouldn’t.

In the race to automate everything – from customer service to code – AI is being heralded as a silver bullet. The narrative is seductive: AI tools that can write entire applications, streamline engineering teams and reduce the need for expensive human developers, along with hundreds of other jobs.  But from my point of view …

Beyond Von Neumann: Toward a unified deterministic architecture

A cycle-accurate alternative to speculation — unifying scalar, vector and matrix compute For more than half a century, computing has relied on the Von Neumann or Harvard model. Nearly every modern chip — CPUs, GPUs and even many specialized accelerators — derives from this design. Over time, new architectures like Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW), …

Huawei’s new open source technique shrinks LLMs to make them run on less powerful, less expensive hardware

Huawei’s Computing Systems Lab in Zurich has introduced a new open-source quantization method for large language models (LLMs) aimed at reducing memory demands without sacrificing output quality. The technique, called SINQ (Sinkhorn-Normalized Quantization), is designed to be fast, calibration-free, and easy to integrate into existing model workflows. The code for performing it has been made …
