OpenAI counters Anthropic's ARC-AGI-3 record: GPT-5.6 Sol scores 38.3 percent, but only through its own API with retained reasoning and context compaction. In the official test environment, the model managed just 7.8 percent. Opus 5 hit its 30.2 percent without such aids. The article OpenAI claims GPT-5.6 Sol beats Opus 5 on ARC-AGI-3 but only with its own custom test harness appeared first on The Decoder .
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) added foreign-produced mobile robots and networked power inverters to its Covered List on July 28. The move generally prevents new models from receiving the equipment authorization required for import, marketing, or sale in the US. Previously authorized models can still be sold, and devices people already own are unaffected. Federal purchases and use

The @vercel/sandbox SDK now supports multiple Linux users and groups, so you can run agents side by side in a single Sandbox. Each agent runs as its own user with a private home directory. A group opens a shared workspace when they need to collaborate. This makes multi-agent systems easier to build. Call createUser for each agent; its commands and file operations run as that user, and users can't read, write, or list each other's files. To set up a shared directory, call createGroup and add user

MiniMax H3 is now available on AI Gateway. H3 generates 2K video from a text prompt, a starting image, a pair of first and last frames, or reference material. Alongside text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video, the model supports first-to-last keyframe transitions and multimodal reference-to-video, conditioning a generation on reference images, video, or audio in a single request. Reference and keyframe modes are mutually exclusive. Output is mp4 at 2K resolution, from 5 to 15 seconds, in as
Inkling Small from Thinking Machines is now available on AI Gateway. Inkling Small reaches performance comparable to the larger Inkling model at about a quarter of the size, using much less compute per task. It is a broad generalist with native reasoning over audio and images, and it holds up well on reasoning, agentic coding, and tool use. Controllable thinking effort lets you trade quality against cost and latency, from minimal to maximum reasoning. For visual tasks, it can crop, zoom, and ins
On AI Gateway , GPT-5.6 Luna and GPT-5.6 Terra are now cheaper and GPT-5.6 Sol is faster. AI Gateway adds no markup on token pricing, so these changes reach you at the upstream rate. The changes apply to both short and long context pricing.

While UMAP is widely used for exploring high-dimensional data, typical workflows focus on its lower-dimensional embedding, largely overlooking the rich k-nearest-neighbor (kNN) graph that UMAP constructs internally. This graph encodes the data manifold in its original high-dimensional space, before the distortion that UMAP’s 2D projection introduces. We demonstrate the untapped potential of this internal representation, showing how standard graph algorithms applied to this graph enhance data sen
To operate effectively across diverse contexts, robots must not only perform manipulation tasks accurately but also adapt how their actions unfold to the task, object, and interaction setting. We ask whether this execution-level variation can be learned as a reusable behavioral factor shared across tasks. We present MoMo, a two-stage imitation-learning framework consisting of a spatiotemporal action tokenizer and a behavior-cloning transformer that takes task and a continuous motion-mode conditi

When Microsoft reported killer fourth-quarter earnings for its fiscal 2026 year (which ended June 30), it tucked in an interesting little tidbit about how its investments in the two biggest, and competing, AI labs are doing.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the firm intends to sell its AI tools to other companies for the first time.
On the company’s second-quarter earnings call Wednesday, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Meta sees a “large enterprise opportunity” spanning AI agents, APIs, compute, and internal software.
Microsoft is working on an AI "super app" that combines Copilot's chat, coding, and agentic capabilities. During an earnings call on Wednesday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the app will span "both consumer and commercial experiences" when it launches this year. "Copilot is evolving rapidly from chat to Cowork to Autopilots," Nadella said. "This quarter, […]
Meta put consumer AI agents at the center of its revenue plan on July 29, 2026, when it reported second-quarter results and then used much of the earnings call to lay out a consumer agent business that has not launched yet. CEO Mark Zuckerberg told investors that personal agents will be "the foundation for our next wave of products and revenue lines in the months and years ahead," and said the company would have more to share soon. Zuckerberg sorted Meta's AI work into three buckets on the…
