I didn’t set out to design a new memory architecture. I was trying to figure out why one agent kept losing track of decisions another agent had made. The benchmark was something I created afterward. Multi-agent setups lose decisions that cross agent boundaries because flat transcripts and vector search share a structural blind spot — it’s not merely a noise issue. A context graph saves facts as entities and the relationships between them rather than as text chunks, so it can answer questions that require combining two pieces of information. This isn’t theoretical. Three memory architectures, five scripted scenarios, 18…

Matthew Miller/ZDNETFollow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google.The Garmin Fenix 8 has long been one of my top-rated sports watches, and even though it’s currently on sale ahead of the Fenix 9 launch, it still carries a hefty price tag. Amazfit has been giving Garmin a run for its money with more budget-friendly options. The brand has recently started rolling out premium models that are priced closer to Garmin’s high-end lineup, yet you can still pocket a few hundred dollars in savings.Over the last month, I’ve been putting flagship watches from both brands through their paces —…

A worldwide movement lands at the iconic Montreux Jazz Festival AI.LOVE.JAZZ — a global AI jazz competition and live showcase — is launching the planet’s first-ever AI jazz festival in Montreux, Switzerland. Scheduled for July 9–10, 2026, right alongside the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival, the initiative blends a two-month online international contest with a live event aimed at highlighting top-tier AI-assisted music and sparking conversation among artists, AI developers, tech firms, regulators, and the wider music world. Why Now — From Uncharted Territory to Common Ground AI-generated music is already woven into everyday life. The moment has arrived to put…

Ravie LakshmananJun 25, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News It’s chaos in the wild once more. This week carries that all-too-familiar scent of production systems ablaze and nobody eager to fess up about who left the gate ajar — legacy credentials still functioning, trusted applications pulling shady stunts, browser-based tricks leaping past defenses, and so-called “normal” workflows morphing into phishing conduits because apparently email alone wasn’t a sufficient nightmare. The most frustrating aspect is how low-cost some of these attacks feel. Nothing sophisticated. Nothing straight out of a movie. Just recycled secrets, counterfeit updates, careless trust, and unmonitored machines quietly being…

Cloudflare Workflows lets you create sturdy, multi-step applications that include automatic retries and keep track of state even during long-running processes. When a Workflow runs, each step can reach out to outside systems, automatically retry if something goes wrong, and remember its progress across restarts. But if one step runs into trouble, it might leave behind work from earlier steps in a half-finished or inconsistent state.Right now, we’re rolling out saga rollbacks for Workflows, so you can specify how to undo a step right inside the definition of that step—just in case something doesn’t work out.For instance, imagine a workflow…

Key Takeaways Identiv is set to divest its IoT assets — among them a German R&D facility, a Thai subsidiary, and $25 million in cash — to Trackonomy Systems for $50 million worth of preferred equity in Trackonomy. The transaction is anticipated to be finalized in the third quarter or early fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. Once the divestiture is complete, Identiv will pivot toward becoming a SaaS and physical AI enterprise, targeting acquisitions of compliance-focused SaaS companies in regulated sectors while still benefiting financially from its equity position in Trackonomy. Identiv, a provider of IoT solutions built around RFID…

The ARM Institute serves as a nonprofit group, working to be a trusted intermediary among robotics and manufacturing partners. | Credit: ARM Institute The Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute has rolled out an upgraded version of its RoboticsCareer.org platform, placing a stronger focus on physical AI. With this update, the organization stated its goal is to clarify the skills and training required to collaborate with physical AI systems. RoboticsCareer.org now features a broader range of job openings in this field and helps employers tap into a pool of qualified candidates. These updated features are live now. “Physical AI represents…

OpenAI’s financial future depends significantly on managing infrastructure expenses, a pressing concern that spurred the creation of its custom “Jalapeño” chip. Built in partnership with Broadcom, this application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is a deliberate move to reduce the steep costs of relying on third-party hardware. Nvidia enjoys profit margins estimated at 75% on its premium chips, whereas OpenAI faces slimmer margins—retaining about 33 cents in profit per dollar earned after covering enormous running costs. The economic challenge of operating large language models at a massive scale is formidable. Maintaining ChatGPT’s server responsiveness cost OpenAI a colossal $8.4 billion last year. With weekly…

Throughout this guide, you’ll explore how to create a text clustering system by merging large language model embeddings with HDBSCAN—a density-based clustering method—to automatically identify topics within unlabeled text collections. Key areas we’ll address: How to produce text embeddings from raw documents using a pre-trained sentence-transformers model. How to lower the dimensionality of those embeddings using UMAP to get them ready for clustering. How to leverage HDBSCAN to automatically detect topic clusters and display the outcomes visually. Clustering Unstructured Text with LLM Embeddings and HDBSCAN Overview The present wave of Generative AI tends to revolve around chat interfaces and prompt…

By the time 2036 rolls around, the world of Bitcoin mining will be virtually unrecognizable from what it looked like just five years prior—let alone a decade. The archetype of Bitcoin miners that defined the scene in the early-to-mid 2020s has completely faded away. Back then, these largely public corporations sought massive quantities of low-cost electricity, primarily in developed nations, hoping to scale and monetize these operations for profit. These entities neither produced their own power nor typically engineered or fabricated their ASIC hardware. Instead, they hunted for favorable electricity rates from utility providers, secured tracts of land situated near…
