    MiniMax-M3.1-Flash Opens Its Weights, NVIDIA NeMo Supports Day-0 Fine-Tuning

    MiniMax officially thanked the NVIDIA NeMo team for providing day-0 fine-tuning support for MiniMax-M3.1-Flash. The cited post by Huiying Li states that before its public release, the model had processed 200T+ tokens through Space Bunny and has now opened its weights; NeMo-AutoModel's day-0 fine-tuning support includes FSDP2, expert parallelism, pipeline parallelism, and context parallelism, can scale up to 128 GPUs, and can directly load NVFP4 checkpoints.

    You’ve probably already used it: Space Bunny pushed 200T+ tokens before anyone knew it was MiniMax-M3.1-Flash. Now it’s open weights 🔥 Thank you @MiniMax_AI for open sourcing it! Day-0 fine-tuning in NVIDIA NeMo-AutoModel ✅ FSDP2, expert, pipeline, and context parallelism, ✅scaling up to 128 GPUs, and the NVFP4 checkpoint loads directly. https://t.co/mJbil96cax

    OpenAI Decisions API Now Generally Available, Supporting Three Types of Decision Calls

    OpenAI announced that the Decisions API is now generally available and can be used via the API and the OpenAI Platform. The interface is used to classify text and images, evaluate inputs, and decide the next step without generating a full model response, offering three types of decisions: Predicate, Choice, and Score. The publisher said it is similar to Jev and noted that the API puts the probability of the GPT-7 series being released this year at 21%.

    Add near real-time decisions to your workflow with the Decisions API, now generally available. Build faster, more cost-efficient apps and agents that can classify text and images, evaluate inputs, and determine what happens next without generating a full model response.

    Aerial uses AI to give smart TVs a clean desktop, replacing the system launcher without root

    The open-source tool Aerial overlays the system launcher via a background desktop daemon, leaving only the wallpaper, clock, and apps on the TV home screen, with no root permission required. It leverages Android's notification listening feature introduced in July 2013, automatically reviving within 0.5 seconds after background apps are cleared during standby, and gained over 200 stars on GitHub in less than a day after release. To install, enable adb debugging on the TV, enter the TV's IP address, then hand the prompt from the official website to agents such as Doubao and WorkBuddy for automatic deployment.

    Google Cloud launches Agent Compute Engine to host AI agents

    Google Cloud has launched Agent Compute Engine, an infrastructure service purpose-built for hosting AI agents, whose sandboxes are implemented as microVMs, combining the hardware efficiency of containers with the isolation capabilities of traditional virtualization. The service limits the attack surface with stateless devices, an immutable file system, Titan chip-verified firmware, and a multi-layer proxy network, and automatically shuts down sandboxes when idle and rapidly restores them when needed, enabling a single physical node to host far more agent microVMs than conventional VMs. Agent login credentials are stored outside the sandbox and retrieved on the agent's behalf by Agent Gateway; the service will launch in the coming months alongside a new version of Agent Gateway, which adds model routing and token consumption control capabilities.

    Microsoft Launches AI Diagnostic System MAI-DxO, Achieving 83% Accuracy on Complex Cases

    Microsoft announced the launch of its AI diagnostic system, Microsoft AI Diagnostic Orchestrator (MAI-DxO), which simulates a multidisciplinary expert consultation by orchestrating multiple AI agents. In an evaluation based on common cases from U.S. emergency departments using the MIMIC-IV-ED dataset, its diagnostic accuracy was 1.7 times that of human physicians; in a simulated evaluation based on complex cases from The New England Journal of Medicine, it achieved 83% accuracy, compared with 36% for primary care general practitioners and general internists who could independently consult reference materials, while specialists were not included in the comparison. Officials said the system's cost is only half or even one-third that of physicians, and the research findings have been published in the journal Science.

    1Password launches 1Password for Agents agent password authorization feature

    1Password launches the 1Password for Agents platform, enabling personal AI agents to complete website logins on users' behalf without accessing or storing users' passwords or verification codes. The feature is aimed at individual and family plan users, with initial support for agents including Meta Muse, OpenAI ChatGPT Work and Dots, Anthropic Claude Duet, Grok Bot, and Town. In the flow, the agent first proves its identity to 1Password using a digital key; the user sees on their device the account credentials and task requested for use and approves or rejects; after approval, 1Password directly fills in the username, password, or one-time verification code, and the password always remains in the vault.

    Sakana AI Releases Ontology-Based AI Agent Platform Sakana Aquarium

    Sakana AI has released Sakana Aquarium, an AI agent building and operations platform that centers on ontology, organizing the knowledge, rules, and data scattered across an organization into a unified semantic layer so that agents can confirm information, make judgments, and execute tasks. The platform comprises three layers of mechanisms—ontology, governance, and managed agents—and allows access permissions and pre-execution approvals to be configured, while recording the entire process from the basis of a judgment to the execution result. The organized data and ontology can be directly reused by other agents, and Sakana AI says it will subsequently develop mechanisms that let agents continuously update the ontology as the organization changes, as well as AI-assisted agent building.

    Canva releases its first in-house image model, Canva Craft, which plans the design first and then generates the image

    Canva has released its first in-house image generation model, Canva Craft, which uses a two-stage architecture: it plans the design first and then generates the image, supporting up to 2K resolution and more than 30 aspect ratios. The model was trained on millions of human-made templates in the platform's content library, and it currently ranks fourth on the Design Arena image generation model leaderboard, behind OpenAI's GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst, GPT-Image-2.5 Flare and GPT-Image-2. Canva Craft is now available to all users worldwide and can be accessed from the three-dot option in the left-hand menu to enter Dream Lab; Canva also plans to let AI agents access the model via MCP and will launch Craft-fast and Craft-ultrafast versions.
