MCP solved tool calling. A2A solved coordination. What solves transport?

The history of distributed computing is one of protocol proliferation followed by consolidation. Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM), Java remote method invocation (RMI), and early simple object access protocol (SOAP) competed for the enterprise integration market in the late 1990s before representational state transfer (REST) quietly won by being …

Anthropic blocks all public access to Claude Fable 5, Mythos 5 following US government order — what enterprises should do

The US government last night issued an unprecedented export control directive ordering Anthropic to immediately suspend all access to its top-tier Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 models for foreign nationals, citing unspecified national security authorities. In response, Anthropic has blocked all public access to both models, globally — meaning no users around the …

Google researchers introduce ‘faithful uncertainty,’ allowing LLMs to offer best guesses instead of hallucinations

Large language models continue to struggle with hallucinations, presenting a major roadblock for real-world enterprise applications. Reducing these errors is a messy business, forcing model developers to navigate a strict tradeoff where eliminating factual errors often suppresses valid answers. In a new paper, Google researchers introduce the concept of “faithful uncertainty,” a metacognitive technique that …

Kimi K2.7-Code cuts thinking tokens 30% — but practitioners say the benchmarks don’t check out

Moonshot AI released Kimi K2.7-Code this week, an open-source update to its K2 coding model family, claiming leaner reasoning and double-digit performance gains. K2.7-Code is built on the same trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts architecture as its predecessor K2.6, and drops in via an OpenAI-compatible API — which matters for teams already running K2.6 in production gateways. When …

NanoClaw and JFrog launch ‘immune system’ to block AI agents from downloading malicious code

The creators of the hit, enterprise-friendly, open source OpenClaw variant NanoClaw are partnering with software supply chain management leader JFrog have to launch a new, joint security integration they say will protect NanoClaw autonomous agents from malicious code injection. “These agents are doing things that you cannot necessarily control, and you cannot necessarily train,” said …

PixelRAG beats text parsers on accuracy and cuts AI agent token costs 10x

Most enterprise RAG pipelines start the same way: a text parser converts web pages and documents into plain text so they can be chunked and indexed for retrieval. That conversion step destroys retrieval signals — and according to new research, it’s responsible for the majority of wrong answers. A research team from UC Berkeley, Princeton …

Xiaomi’s new open source, agentic AI coding harness MiMo Code beats Claude Code at ultra-long, 200+ step tasks

Xiaomi’s MiMo AI team has open-sourced MiMo Code V0.1.0, a terminal-native AI coding assistant that the Chinese electronics giant says outperforms Anthropic’s Claude Code on key agentic coding benchmarks, especially on long-horizon, multi-step tasks (200+ steps) — at least, according to its own internal beta release and survey of 576 developers. It’s also bundling limited-time …

Context compression finally works in production: new research cuts LLM input 16x without the accuracy hit

Context windows are becoming a computational bottleneck. The longer an agent runs, the more tokens accumulate from retrieved documents, reasoning traces and conversation history, and the more memory and compute that growing context demands. Most existing solutions either degrade model accuracy, require the full context to load before compression begins, or produce memory savings that …

Microsoft’s open-source SkillOpt automatically upgrades AI agent skills without touching model weights

Agent skills have become an important part of real-world AI applications, providing a mechanism — a set of instructions saved in a folder of text-based markdown (.md) files, usually — for models to adapt to specific enterprise use cases and complex workflows. However, optimizing these skills is a slow process and faulty process, as they …

What AI benchmarks miss about real-world performance

Presented by F5 Enterprise AI teams have spent years solving for compute, securing GPU allocations, negotiating cloud capacity, and benchmarking training throughput. The assumption embedded in that work is that the path between storage and compute will keep up. In production, that assumption increasingly does not hold. Real traffic introduces latency spikes, network jitter, and …
