Made-up company data with a known answer teaches AI agents to analyse better
Researchers from Meituan and Chinese universities build fake worlds full of messy files, and they know exactly what lies behind them. That makes it possible to check whether an AI agent really draws the right conclusion. A model that practised with them became clearly better at data analysis.

Researchers let an AI agent think partly without words: faster and cheaper
Researchers from Stanford and Together AI let an AI agent do part of its thinking without writing it out. It only switches to text to look something up or to answer. According to them, it works up to 2.6 times faster this way and scores better than comparable systems.

AI model IRIS reads which signals cells in an embryo have received
Researchers at MIT and the Whitehead Institute have built an AI model that can tell from a cell's gene activity which signals that cell received from its neighbours. With that knowledge, they have already improved a lab recipe for growing precursors of lung tissue from human stem cells.

Meta releases Muse Spark Open: a large AI model for programming that also runs on your own computers
Meta has released Muse Spark Open, a large AI model for programming and independent agent tasks that anyone can download. According to Meta, it is the strongest American open model so far, and it even runs on two Mac Studios.

Lab-grown human brain tissue learns to balance a virtual pole with an AI coach
At a meeting in Silicon Valley, a team from UC Santa Cruz showed how cultured human brain tissue learns a classic control task: keeping a pole upright on a cart. An AI algorithm acts as the coach. A volunteer with a keyboard could barely keep up with the tissue.
