    Training LFM2.5-2.6B inside four agent harnesses boosts held-out tasks

    AIHugging Face shows that training LFM2.5-2.6B with RL inside the agent harnesses themselves lifted held-out task success from 42% to 54% across four harnesses. Before training, the model solved 62% of tasks in Mini-SWE-Agent but only 33% in Claude Code, so the same model behaved very differently per harness. The approach uses an OpenEnv capture proxy to record tokens and logprobs, Harbor for tasks and sandboxes, and TRL's async GRPO trainer, with 31% fewer tool calls on already-solved tasks; training in OpenCode alone mostly improved OpenCode.

    Cloudflare OS opens managed agent workspace waitlist with GitHub and Google Workspace support

    AICloudflare is opening a waitlist for fully managed Cloudflare OS deployments, where organizations configure a custom domain, Cloudflare Access policies, and an AI Gateway. The update lets agents mount existing GitHub repositories to explore code, fix bugs, and open pull requests, and read, draft, and send Gmail while accessing Google Drive. Built-in document, presentation, and spreadsheet tools can now export to Excel, CSV, PDF, Markdown, and HTML, with Word and PowerPoint export coming soon.

    Why it matters: The post shows how a managed agent workspace connects to GitHub and Google Workspace, which matters for teams weighing self-hosting against a managed deployment.

    Ai2 releases Olmo-core 3, an open framework for training large MoE models

    AIAi2 released Olmo-core 3, an open training framework redesigned to scale mixture-of-experts models into the trillion-parameter range. In one benchmark, expert count rose from 8 to 128 with about 3.2B active parameters per token, total capacity grew from 4.6B to 47B, and throughput fell by less than 5%. The framework is fully open, so researchers can train their own MoEs and experiment with routing and parallelism.

    Why it matters: The release documents concrete MoE scaling results and reported failure modes, useful for teams weighing training-stack tradeoffs before adopting an open framework.

    Matthew Schwartz on finding Claude-shaped science problems with BootLoops

    AIPhysicist Matthew Schwartz describes building BootLoops, an open-source harness for exact quantitative calculations, after choosing problems suited to Claude's strengths. He reports that Claude solved long-standing integrals and found connections across ecology, population genetics, economics, and linguistics, with domain experts steering results toward questions those fields care about. The post states that the approach required constant human oversight, since Claude often overstated results and misjudged time.

    Why it matters: The guest post explains why scientists often find current AI tools frustrating and offers a method for finding problems where AI and researchers match, backed by concrete projects.

    Comfy API launches to deploy ComfyUI workflows as autoscaling endpoints

    AIComfy API is now available to all users on a paid Comfy plan, letting them package a ComfyUI workflow with its custom nodes, LoRAs, models, and Python dependencies and deploy it as an autoscaling API endpoint. Builds capture the ComfyUI version and dependencies, and each immutable release gets its own URL, so the tested environment is the deployed one. Usage is billed separately, with GPU time charged by the second and storage prorated hourly.

    Why it matters: The post explains how a ComfyUI workflow is packaged into immutable releases and deployed as an autoscaling endpoint, showing a path from local graph to production service.

    Google DeepMind introduces SynthID Bio to watermark AI-designed proteins

    AIGoogle DeepMind introduced SynthID Bio, a watermarking method that embeds a detectable signature into AI-generated protein sequences and predicted structures. In wet-lab tests across three target proteins, watermarked binders matched unwatermarked versions in hit rate, binding affinity, and sequence diversity. The team is publishing its methods paper, open-sourcing code and in vitro data, and releasing weights to the research community.

    Why it matters: The report shows watermarks surviving wet-lab testing with unchanged binding and folding accuracy, offering a concrete tool for tracking AI-designed proteins in biosecurity screening.

    Google DeepMind introduces SynthID Bio to watermark AI-designed proteins

    AIGoogle DeepMind has introduced SynthID Bio, a technology that embeds an imperceptible, verifiable watermark into AI-designed protein sequences and predicted 3D structures. In laboratory tests across target proteins, watermarked designs matched the performance and natural diversity of unwatermarked versions. The company says the watermark provides a provenance layer intended to strengthen biosecurity and preserve the integrity of open scientific databases.

    Tencent Hunyuan releases ExplorationBench to test how AI systems discover rules

    AIResearchers from Tencent Hy, Fudan University, and Tsinghua University released ExplorationBench, a benchmark that tests whether AI systems can discover hidden rules in executable Alien World sandboxes. Across 10 frontier systems, getting feedback from experiments outperformed thinking alone, with the best run reaching 89.0% after four rounds. The authors note that rankings barely transfer between the two worlds, and the code is listed as coming soon.

    Diffusion Reward Models learn full human preference distributions, not single scores

    AIOpenBMB introduces Diffusion Reward Models (DRM), which learn the full reward distribution of human preferences instead of collapsing them into one scalar score. The approach preserves disagreement and uncertainty, enabling distribution-aware Best-of-N ranking and a new test-time scaling axis by sampling more reward outputs. DRM also improves downstream policy performance over scalar reward baselines when used as the reward in RLHF, according to the post.

    Open TTS Leaderboard ranks multilingual and voice cloning models using objective metrics

    AIHugging Face released the Open TTS Leaderboard, which evaluates open-source text-to-speech models using objective metrics instead of arena-style human votes. It measures intelligibility via WER and CER using Qwen3 ASR, speed via RTFx and time-to-first-audio on an H200 GPU, and speaker similarity via WavLM embeddings. The leaderboard covers multilingual results and voice cloning, and it is intended to complement, not replace, human preference rankings.

    Fireworks explains how numerical mismatch and MoE routing can derail RL training

    AINumerical differences between a rollout engine and a trainer can make reinforcement learning collapse even when algorithm and data stay identical. In a GLM 5.2 experiment, reward fell from about 0.9 to under 0.2 around step 20 without alignment, while aligned numerics kept reward stable over 25 steps. A Qwen3.5-MoE investigation traced a significant mismatch to how expert outputs were combined, and router replay alone was judged insufficient.
