Enterprises can now train custom AI models from production workflows — no ML team required
Every query an enterprise AI application processes, every correction a subject matter expert makes to its output — that interaction is training data. Most organizations are not capturing it. The production workflows companies have already built are generating a continuous signal that improves AI models, and it is disappearing. San Francisco-based Empromptu AI on Thursday […]
OpenAI’s AI data agent, built by two engineers, now serves 4,000 employees — and the company says anyone can replicate it
When an OpenAI finance analyst needed to compare revenue across geographies and customer cohorts last year, it took hours of work — hunting through 70,000 datasets, writing SQL queries, verifying table schemas. Today, the same analyst types a plain-English question into Slack and gets a finished chart in minutes. The tool behind that transformation was […]
Endor Labs launches free tool AURI after study finds only 10% of AI-generated code is secure
Endor Labs, the application security startup backed by more than $208 million in venture funding, today launched AURI, a platform that embeds real-time security intelligence directly into the AI coding tools that are reshaping how software gets built. The product is available free to individual developers and integrates natively with popular AI coding assistants including […]
Intuit is betting its 40 years of small business data can outlast the SaaSpocalypse
Intuit has lost around a third of its market cap since the beginning of the year. It’s not alone. Many established SaaS players have seen their stock prices fall in recent months, including Adobe and IBM — the latter experiencing its most significant one-day drop (roughly $40 billion) with Anthropic’s announcement that Claude could now […]
Alibaba’s small, open source Qwen3.5-9B beats OpenAI’s gpt-oss-120B and can run on standard laptops
Despite political turmoil in the U.S. AI sector, in China, the AI advances are continuing apace without a hitch. Earlier today, e-commerce giant Alibaba’s Qwen Team of AI researchers, focused primarily on developing and releasing to the world a growing family of powerful and capable Qwen open source language and multimodal AI models, unveiled its […]
When AI lies: The rise of alignment faking in autonomous systems
AI is evolving beyond a helpful tool to an autonomous agent, creating new risks for cybersecurity systems. Alignment faking is a new threat where AI essentially “lies” to developers during the training process. Traditional cybersecurity measures are unprepared to address this new development. However, understanding the reasons behind this behavior and implementing new methods of […]
What if the real risk of AI isn’t deepfakes — but daily whispers?
Most people don’t appreciate the profound threat that AI will soon pose to human agency. A common refrain is that “AI is just a tool,” and like any tool, its benefits and dangers depend on how people use it. This is old-school thinking. AI is transitioning from tools we use to prosthetics we wear. This […]
Vibe coding with overeager AI: Lessons learned from treating Google AI Studio like a teammate
Most discussions about vibe coding usually position generative AI as a backup singer rather than the frontman: Helpful as a performer to jump-start ideas, sketch early code structures and explore new directions more quickly. Caution is often urged regarding its suitability for production systems where determinism, testability and operational reliability are non-negotiable. However, my latest […]
Google’s Opal just quietly showed enterprise teams the new blueprint for building AI agents
For the past year, the enterprise AI community has been locked in a debate about how much freedom to give AI agents. Too little, and you get expensive workflow automation that barely justifies the “agent” label. Too much, and you get the kind of data-wiping disasters that plagued early adopters of tools like OpenClaw. This […]
OpenAI’s big investment from Amazon comes with something else: new ‘stateful’ architecture for enterprise agents
The landscape of enterprise artificial intelligence shifted fundamentally today as OpenAI announced $110 billion in new funding from three of tech’s largest firms: $30 billion from SoftBank, $30 billion from Nvidia, and $50 billion from Amazon. But while the former two players are providing money, OpenAI is going further with Amazon in a new direction, […]
