    Gemini Nano Banana 2.1 is now available through ComfyUI Partner Nodes

    AIGoogle's Gemini Nano Banana 2.1 image generation and editing model is now available in ComfyUI through Partner Nodes, the successor to Nano Banana 2. The model accepts a prompt and up to 14 reference images, outputs at up to 4K, and offers Minimal, Medium and High thinking levels. It adds a 9:21 aspect ratio and, according to the post, costs less per run than Nano Banana 2.

    Cursor agent keeps running on your computer without phone signal

    AICursor's agent runs locally on your computer, so it continues working even if your phone loses signal. The post presents this offline-resilience feature as a benefit of running the agent on the user's own machine rather than in a phone-dependent setup.

  5. GitHub Copilot ChangelogOfficialAI score32

    Update your IDE to restore Copilot agent activity in usage metrics

    AIGitHub says some IDEs that moved Copilot agent sessions to the Copilot SDK left that activity unattributed in usage metrics, and a fix is rolling out by IDE. Visual Studio Code 1.139.0 and later has the fix now, while Visual Studio 18.12, JetBrains, Eclipse, and Xcode are expected between October and November 2026. Billing is unaffected, and missing data from affected versions cannot be backfilled.

    OpenAI releases Openai/math, suggesting verifiable problems are being solved

    AIOpenAI has published a repository called Openai/math, which the author reads as a sign that math problems, or any verifiable problems, are being solved. The author says OpenAI's tools exhausted their Pro token allowance on subagent tests unrelated to their main task, concluding that the work was aimed at verification for its own sake.

    Ben Affleck jokes about convolutions and his AI background

    AIThomas Wolf's post is a short, playful reply: "how do you like them convolutions," apparently referencing Ben Affleck's comments on convolutional neural networks. The quoted context reports Affleck describing his Python scripting, understanding of CNNs and tensors, GPU work, and private looks at Google and OpenAI's video models.

    Puffle launches a company agent for internal use

    AIPuffle is launched as a company agent that businesses can consider for internal agents. The post says it is easy to set up, supports multiplayer use, and is highly capable, and can be used like a set of Hermes agents for a company.

    OpenAI releases new mathematical results from internal frontier model

    AIOpenAI is releasing a broad range of new mathematical results produced by an internal frontier model, with release guidance from the Institute for Advanced Study's Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence. The results are available on GitHub at openai/math. The post itself is brief and emphasizes the results rather than hype.

    llm-openai-decisions 0.1a0 Adds OpenAI Decisions API Support to LLM Tool

    AISimon Willison released llm-openai-decisions 0.1a0, a plugin that adds OpenAI's new Decisions API to the LLM command-line tool. The plugin supports yes/no, choices, and score question types, and works with the gpt-6-luna decision model, which accepts both text and image input. OpenAI charges 10 cents per million input tokens for gpt-6-luna, while Jev's rate is 4.2 cents per million, and output is not charged.

    Pollen Microduck gets a custom Seeed-built single-board computer

    AIPollen Robotics' Microduck now runs on its first fully custom single-board computer, built by Seeed around the same Rockchip CPU. The new board adds better memory, WiFi/BT, dual NFC antennas, status LEDs, an RGB flashlight, and improved cooling and boot speed, replacing the earlier Radxa-based prototype stack.

    PyTorch Introduces FBTriton Kernels to Speed Table Batched Embedding Operations

    AIPyTorch's blog describes a Triton-based implementation of Table Batched Embedding (TBE) forward and backward kernels for recommendation-system embedding lookups, which the post says outperforms legacy CUDA kernels on these workloads. On B200, an updated CUDA bounds-check step reaches up to 1.24x speedup on that component, and an optional forward-side preprocessing path cuts combined latency from 79.537 ms to 66.183 ms (−16.8%) on a large configuration.

    Will DePue's list claims AI resolved dozens of famous open math problems

    AIA post by Will DePue titled "Fable 5.1's list" presents 100 mathematical results and says 59% were released today, 87% AI and 13% human. The list includes items attributed to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind and human mathematicians, each marked by a colored indicator, and it describes many entries as formalized in Lean or as openai/math family numbers. The post supplies no independent verification of these claims.

    Reflection CEO argues only open models let users truly own intelligence

    AIReflection CEO Misha Laskin argues that closed AI models are like renting an apartment, while open models let users own intelligence as AI adoption grows. He says the only way to own intelligence is if it is open. Reflection is preparing to release Beam, its first open-weight model, in a podcast discussion with its co-founders.

    Hermes Index launches to rank models for Hermes Agent users

    AITeknium announced Hermes Index, which combines scores from the new HermesBench and three other agent benchmarks. The index aims to help Hermes Agent users find the best model at a given time and at a given price point. It was introduced by Nous Research as a way to inform model choice and show labs their performance in Hermes.

    GitHub rebuilds Git infrastructure to handle agent-scale write volume

    AIGitHub reports that Git events on the platform rose from 218.2 billion to 473.3 billion per month between September 2025 and August 2026. It says agent workloads push write throughput and merge contention beyond what its current replica-based architecture handles well, so it is separating durable storage from compute while GitHub keeps running. The article states internal benchmarks reached up to 35 times higher write throughput.

    Why it matters: The post links rising Git event volume to specific architectural bottlenecks, showing why agent workloads strain write paths and how GitHub plans to separate storage from compute.

Boston Dynamics skipped a booth but released a video on the final day of a new four-finger, 13-degree-of-freedom Atlas hand, down from 7 DOF on its previous gripper. Hand makers are also selling capture gloves and data services, since labs need far more demonstrations than the hardware alone provides.
