A video analytics AI agent that can perceive, reason, and act based on massive amounts of video footage must be integrated with existing workflows and applications to be useful. These include content management systems, messaging platforms, databases, ticket queue, and escalation paths. This integration is challenging because video systems, enterprise knowledge bases… Source

Agentic AI changes the infrastructure pattern for AI factories. One request can trigger many model calls, tool calls, memory lookups, policy checks, storage accesses, and network transfers before a final answer is produced. As more agents run at once and carry context across steps, users, tools, services, and sessions, infrastructure must move, protect, retrieve, and reuse data fast enough to keep… Source

DoorDash is opening a limited beta of dd-cli, a command-line tool that lets developers and AI agents search stores, build carts, and place orders from the terminal, marking another step toward software designed for AI agents instead of just humans.

Cars24 deploys OpenAI voice and chat agents handling 1M+ monthly conversation minutes, recovering 12% lost leads via agentic workflows.

Across 101 enterprises, agent orchestration is consolidating onto model-provider platforms — Anthropic’s Claude leads by a wide margin — chosen for the gravity of the underlying model and judged on reliable multi-step execution. But the ambition runs well ahead of the reality: most deployed “agents” are still chatbot wrappers, the control plane enterprises expect is deliberately hybrid to avoid lock-in, and real-time fiscal control over token burn remains the exception. This wave of VentureBeat Pulse Research examines enterprise agent orchestration: which platforms enterprises run on, what dr...

OpenUSD is an open, extensible framework that provides a common scene description language for physical AI. It enables teams to bring CAD data, simulation assets, and real-world telemetry into a shared, physically accurate view of the world. Until now, building a USD implementation has typically required adapting a large existing codebase— even for teams that need a specific memory footprint… Source

Study shows agent-optimization gains may not compound over time; proposes Terminal-Bench 2.0 to test continual learning on deployed agents.

TRACE assigns per-turn rewards for long-horizon multi-tool agents to improve credit assignment beyond sparse outcome rewards.

OpenAI is finally releasing some hardware. No, it isn't the mysterious AI-powered device the company is developing with former Apple designer Jony Ive, a project already tangled up in a messy lawsuit. Instead, it's a product designed to be used with its coding platform, Codex. The device, a square-shaped block of buttons called Codex Micro, is a collaboration between the AI company and keyboard maker Work Louder. OpenAI said it is a limited-run collaboration that will give users more ways to monitor and manage their agents. The pad closely resembles Work Louder's Creator Micro 2, and marketin...

Coding AI agents are becoming practical operators for long-running machine learning (ML) workflows. They can inspect repositories, set up runtimes, resolve build issues, launch experiments, monitor execution, analyze metrics, and summarize results. For reinforcement learning (RL) research, this matters because meaningful metrics often appear only after the essential experiment infrastructure… Source

What if autonomous coding AI agents could push your vision reasoning models above 90% accuracy with almost no manual effort? When adapting vision reasoning models to production video tasks, developers often lose days to data formatting, container setup, training scripts, baseline evaluation, and hyperparameter sweeps before they even know whether post-training improves accuracy.

In this paper, we study Reinforcement Learning in Parametrized Action Markov Decision Processes (PAMDP), where each decision consists of a symbolic action and numerical parameters. In such settings Reinforcement Learning algorithms typically determine parameters with one-shot estimators, which makes their training sample inefficient. Though in most PAMDP environments explicit but incomplete knowledge (e.g., rules, safety constraints, or expert heuristics) is available, it is rarely directly used to increase the sample-efficiency of training Reinforcement Learning agents. We step into this gap...
