AIMeta has released Muse, its A.I. agent app, after delaying it for months over safety concerns. According to the source, new competition pushed Mark Zuckerberg to proceed with the launch.

AIAnthropic's Claude Science has produced what the source describes as the first complete ultraviolet map of the sky. AI agents downloaded data from multiple space missions, calibrated and merged it, and used inpainting to fill gaps left by NASA's GALEX mission, which skipped bright star-forming regions. In tests, predictions averaged about ten percent deviation from actual measurements, and the map is intended as teaching material.

AIOpenAI says an internal investigation found Jasmine Wang, Tomek Korbak and Mikita Balesni breached policies on handling sensitive information, and denies the dismissals were tied to their safety concerns. The researchers had published an open letter on Thursday saying they were fired for raising safety concerns and had acted within OpenAI's mission. OpenAI said the investigation found breaches beyond those in the letter but did not provide details.

AIGoogle says gemini-3.7-flash is deprecated and replaced by gemini-3.8-flash, and gemini-3.5-flash is deprecated and replaced by gemini-3.6-flash, with requests to the old strings automatically routed to the new ones. Developers should update their model strings, with gemini-3.8-flash recommended for the 3.5 Flash replacement as well. Google also says the deep-research-pro-preview-12-2025 agent will shut down on October 23, 2026, and that developers should migrate to deep-research-preview-04-2026 or deep-research-max-preview-04-2026.

AIJPMorgan again leads Evident Insight's ranking of the world's most AI-advanced banks, according to Evident CEO Alexandra Mousavizadeh. She says early movers are pulling ahead, and the banks investing most heavily in AI are still growing headcount even as the technology changes jobs.

AIGoogle Cloud has introduced the Gemini agent, a single cloud-hosted agent that handles Q&A, knowledge work, media creation, and coding from one prompt box and one API. It routes jobs across Gemini and Claude models today, with other private and open models planned. Governance covers per-agent identity, role-based access, audit logging, and hard per-project spend caps, but the source gives no reproducible benchmarks, pricing, or general availability date.

AIOpenAI told investors it expects $50bn in revenue this year, about $20bn less than the $70bn it had signalled last month. The gap stems partly from comparing with Anthropic, which counts revenue sold through cloud partners such as AWS and Google Cloud, while OpenAI does not. The news weighed on US tech stocks, and OpenAI is in early talks to raise $30bn at a valuation of about $1.4tn.

AIOpenAI exposed a Russian and an Iranian influence operation and banned the ChatGPT accounts involved, both of which planted content in legitimate media using fake identities. The Iranian operation, "Bogus Bylines," used seven fake journalists to place nearly 100 articles about the US-Iran conflict, while the Russian "Dark Clark" operation triggered fact-checks and official denials in Ecuador and Peru. Both operations used AI mainly for internal reporting and adapting propaganda to different languages.

AITencent has open-sourced Youtu-Parsing-Omni, a 5B-parameter omni-modal model that outputs a single structured JSON covering layout, text, tables, formulas, ASR, OCR, and video segments. It scores 96.96 Overall on OmniDocBench, the highest among the compared models, and ships with weights on Hugging Face, a vLLM plugin, and inference examples.

AINVIDIA published the Agile One S SSD Pick deployment model, GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 40000, on Hugging Face for SSD pickup tasks. The repository includes five ONNX graphs with external tensor files and two existing TensorRT BF16 engines, with original configurations and build metadata, but no retraining or re-export was performed. The files are not a robot deployment or safety qualification, and engine compatibility depends on the target GPU and TensorRT environment.

AINVIDIA has released a deployment model for Agile One S SSD pickup, based on GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 58000 and using three cameras: ego, left wrist, and right wrist. The repository republishes ONNX graphs, external tensor files, and two existing TensorRT BF16 engines without retraining or re-export, and the original export reported a numerical warning that full FP32, node, and BF16 parity did not pass all tolerances. The files are not a certified robot deployment or safety qualification.

AINVIDIA published the Agile One S Walk GR00T N2 checkpoint 1680, a walking deployment model with four cameras, on Hugging Face. The repository includes ONNX graphs, TensorRT BF16 plans/engines, and the original checkpoint files, republished without retraining or re-export. The shared Cosmos-Reason1-7B dependency and the Isaac/GR00T runtime must be set up separately, and the files are not a robot safety qualification.

AINVIDIA published the nvidia/agile_one_s_place_ssd_n17_24050 repository on Hugging Face, containing a GR00T N1.7 checkpoint 24050 model for placing an SSD with three cameras. The repository includes five ONNX graphs with external tensor files and two existing TensorRT BF16 engines, republished without retraining, re-export, or engine rebuild. Engine compatibility depends on the target GPU and TensorRT environment, and the files are not a robot deployment or safety qualification.

AIA study led by Google and BIDMC tested Google's diagnostic AI chatbot AMIE with 98 outpatients before emergency visits, with a supervising doctor monitoring every exchange. No conversation needed interruption under the predefined safety criteria, and clinicians said AI summaries helped them prepare for 75% of visits. AMIE's differential diagnoses matched final diagnoses 90% of the time, but the authors say larger trials are needed.

AIJetBrains released Mellum2.1, a 12B mixture-of-experts coding model with 2.5B active parameters under Apache 2.0, emphasizing agentic programming. Under high load, its inference throughput in tokens is nearly twice that of Qwen3.5-9B in JetBrains' comparison, and multi-token prediction (MTP) speeds single-request responses by about 1.6x. The model is available on Hugging Face for local or private-infrastructure deployment, with GGUF and vLLM MTP support announced for later.
