AIMicrosoft Research Asia has open-sourced Agent Lightning v1.0, a roughly 3,500-line agentic RL framework that trains the same agent harness used in deployment. In an end-to-end coding agent pipeline, Qwen3.5-9B rose from 41.8% to 56.4% Pass@1 on SWE-bench Verified using about 6,000 training samples. The framework runs agents as standard Kubernetes jobs without paid commercial sandbox services.
Why it matters: The source shows how training with the deployed agent harness avoids rebuilding agents, and reports concrete SWE-bench Verified gains from about 6,000 samples.
Ai2@allen_aiOfficialAI score36AIAi2 is making new Stage 1 checkpoints available, with the byte-level components already trained and the original model's weights left unchanged. Researchers can use them to test new architectures and train the full system without repeating that initial stage.
Ai2@allen_aiOfficialAI score20AIAi2 introduces Bolmo, a model that operates on bytes rather than tokens, which the team hopes will lead to larger models adapting how they represent information across languages and domains. Because bytes can also represent images and audio, the approach could eventually extend beyond text.
Ai2@allen_aiOfficialAI score39AIAi2 converted Qwen 3 8B and Llama 3 8B into byte-level models named Bwen 8B and Blama 8B. Both come close to matching their source models' performance in Ai2's evaluations, and Bwen 8B outperforms Bolmo 7B across its aggregate evaluation suite.
Ai2@allen_aiOfficialAI score38AIAi2's paper on retrofitting language models to operate over bytes, the approach behind Bolmo, has been accepted to Nature. The team is also releasing new checkpoints that extend the method from Olmo to Qwen and Llama.

AIGitHub Copilot CLI version 1.0.94-0 lets users run /model to discover supported models from a running local Ollama instance alongside configured and GitHub Copilot cloud models. Discovered models are not added automatically; users choose one, review its provider and endpoint, then confirm Add and use for this session or Add without switching, and models must support tool calling and streaming. Choosing a local model does not enable offline mode or disable GitHub telemetry, and COPILOT_OFFLINE=true remains a separate explicit setting.
Andrew Curran@AndrewCurran_XAI score27AINous Research has raised $90 million at a $1.5 billion valuation, according to Andrew Curran's post. He praises the team and says Hermes has been a major success for the company.
elvis@omarsar0XAI score44AINVIDIA's VERA turns benchmark trajectories into over 9,000 restartable sandboxes with rubric scoring and updates both model weights and the agent harness together. A harness edit is kept only if it adds at least 5 points on the development set, and a checkpoint is rejected if its score drops more than 20%. At 27B, the co-evolved agent scores 71.6 on AutoCoWorkBench, above Claude Opus 4.8, and the environment corpus is open-sourced.
ComfyUI@ComfyUIOfficialAI score34AIComfyUI says a Blender render can supply the camera path, character positions, attack trajectories, timing, and choreography for AI video. The workflow then uses reference images to replace the blockout with final characters and an anime look.
