Muse Wonder from Meta is now available on AI Gateway. The model is designed for coding, long-running agents, and computer use. It can plan multi-step tasks, delegate work to sub-agents, and recover from errors as work progresses. Muse Wonder has a 1M-token context window and supports text, image, and PDF input, tool calling, and structured output. Agents can work with code, screenshots, and documents in the same workflow. You can access the model through AI Gateway with one API key, without crea

Large Language Models (LLMs) are considered to be a more efficient and cost-effective alternative to human judgment for Machine Translation (MT) evaluation. With MT evaluation spanning a large number of language pairs, domains and levels of annotation granularity, LLMs must be thoroughly evaluated across these dimensions before being reliably used as alternatives to human evaluation. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of LLMs for two prominent MT quality evaluation schemes: Multidimensio

The increasing demand for GPU-accelerated machine learning inference has exposed limitations in centralized GPU infrastructures, including high cost, limited elasticity, and long wait times under resource constraints. At the same time, modern Apple Silicon–based macOS devices are equipped with powerful GPUs that remain largely idle during normal usage. This paper presents Minions, a dynamic and distributed virtual GPU cloud that aggregates idle Apple Silicon GPUs across macOS devices to execute

Long agent traces composed of chains of thought and tool calls accumulate stale content that anchor subsequent generations, and eventually outgrow the context window. Existing scaffolds mitigate it with fixed-interval compaction triggered at a token threshold. Such triggers pay no heed to trajectory structure, risking discard of partial results mid-derivation or mid-search. We propose SELFCOMPACT, a scaffold that allows the model itself to decide when and how to compact. Specifically, it pairs t

When President Donald Trump announced his plans to rebrand artificial intelligence as "super intelligence," you'd be forgiven for being skeptical that it would catch on. While most of the broader population is sticking with AI, some of Silicon Valley's most powerful are falling in line and trying to give Trump the great AI rebrand he […]

Recent news headlines [1] about LLM-based reverse engineering make it seem that anyone with a monthly subscription is capable of translating any executable into an equivalent source code representation. If this is true, then how can one guard against having their source code essentially unveiled with the correct semantic meaning of the underlying algorithms by someone with an extremely low amount of effort? I bet that using obfuscators would still not be enough. I'm distinguishing between recrea

Teams of AI agents barely outperform solo agents but cost up to 5.1x more, according to Vals AI. Only one out of four tests with GPT-6 Sol and Claude Opus 5.5 showed a measurable gain. Anthropic's own data backs this up: beyond ten agents, quality plateaus while token costs keep climbing.

Epoch AI and Anthropic independently found the same thing: current AI models like GPT-5.6 Sol and Claude Fable 5 can run experiments but lack scientific self-criticism and genuine creative thinking. At best, Sol reached 15 percent of the human reference score, and even that came from methods researchers already knew. The models' biggest weakness is still their inability to critically question their own results. The article AI agents overstate their results and remain far from autonomous research
