Last year, Nano Banana brought Gemini’s intelligence to image generation and editing. Since then, it’s helped millions of people restore old photos, design from sketches and visualize ideas in ways that weren’t possible before. From the start we built Gemini to be natively multimodal from the ground up, and now we’re taking the next step….
Your customer service agent correctly retrieved order details, checked your return policy, verified the return window and initiated the return process. Unfortunately, it sent the customer a tracking label for a different order. You spend three hours manually reconstructing 15 tool calls across three specialized agents to find where the handoff broke down. Research from…

Artificial intelligence training data company Mercor.io Corp. announced today that it has acquired Deeptune Inc., a startup that builds simulated software environments used to train AI agents. Financial terms were not disclosed. The deal closed nearly four months after Mercor Chief Executive Brendan Foody wrote a personal angel check into Deeptune’s $43 million Series A…
Vision-language models are among the advanced artificial intelligence AI systems designed to understand and process visual and textual data together. These models are known to combine the capabilities of computer vision and natural language processing tasks. The models are trained to interpret images and generate descriptions about the image, enabling a range of applications such…
AI models reflect, and often exaggerate, existing gender biases from the real world. It is important to quantify such biases present in models in order to properly address and mitigate them. In this article, I showcase a small selection of important work done (and currently being done) to uncover, evaluate, and measure different aspects of…
Large language model (LLM) training workloads increasingly run into GPU memory limits before compute is fully used. Model weights, gradients, optimizer states, communication buffers, and intermediate activations all compete for GPU high-bandwidth memory (HBM). As model size, sequence length, and batch size grow, HBM capacity often becomes the primary scaling bottleneck. This post explains how…
Dr. Sheila Bond, Director of Clinical Content Strategy at Wolters Kluwer Health “Above all else, do no harm.” The Hippocratic Oath remains the ultimate guiding principle in medicine. As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly spreads through clinical care teams, the medical community faces a pivotal test. Using AI to guide patient care decisions requires a clear,…
SAN FRANCISCO and ALISO VIEJO, Calif., July 10, 2026 — UST, a leading AI and technology transformation solutions company, has announced a strategic alliance with Anthropic, the AI safety and research company behind the Claude family of models. The partnership is focused on helping Global 1000 enterprises become AI-native. UST will embed Claude into the…
Looking to model to implement pose estimation? I know something that can perform detection, instance segmentation, pose estimation and classification, all of that in real-time. Yes, I’m talking about the YOLO26 from ultralytics. It can aid security systems or can be fine-tuned to detect even smaller objects. Wondering how to get started? No worries, we’ll…
