  1. 1. Alibaba Open-Sources Zvec Vector DB, UCSD Proposes 4th Gen Causal AI

    Alibaba open-sources Zvec (pip install zvec), rivaling Pinecone's $70/mo capability with billion-scale vector millisecond retrieval. UCSD professor proposes 4 AI paradigms: correlation small → causal small → correlation large → causal large models.

  2. 2. NVIDIA Releases SpatialClaw: Training-Free Spatial Reasoning

    Treats code as action interface for agents to compose perception tools, achieving 59.9% average accuracy across 20 benchmarks, +6.5% over tool-free baseline, supporting Qwen3.5, Gemma4 and more.

  3. 3. Cloudflare Launches Temporary Accounts for AI Agents

    Workers introduces temporary accounts - AI agents can run 'wrangler deploy --temporary' to get a live Worker in seconds, lowering the deployment barrier.

  4. 4. Claude Code v2.1.183: Enhanced Auto-Mode Safety

    Enhanced auto-mode safety: blocks destructive commands like git reset --hard, git commit --amend (non-current commits), terraform destroy.

  5. 5. Figure Robot Count Exceeds Human Employees for First Time

    Figure announces its robot count has surpassed human employees for the first time, marking the transition from theory to practice.

  6. 6. AlphaFold Lead John Jumper Leaves DeepMind for Anthropic

    AlphaFold team lead John Jumper leaves Google DeepMind after nearly 9 years to join Anthropic. DeepMind CEO says their collaboration changed the world.

  7. 7. DeepSeek Open-Sources AutoResearch: Autonomous RL Research Loop

    DeepSeek researcher Deli Chen open-sources AutoResearch protocol. An AI agent autonomously completes a full RL research loop on a 285B model — from experiment design to conclusion, zero human intervention.

  8. 8. Humanize PPT v0.9: Open-Source Presentation-First PPT Skill

    Designed for presentations, reorganizes outlines via AST (Audience, State, Transfer) logic. Speaker mode: press S for notes, ESC for global index quick-navigation.

  9. 9. Persistent Agent Memory Layer on Elasticsearch Open-Sourced

    Agent Builder's persistent memory layer on Elasticsearch classifies memory into episodic, semantic, and procedural types, with 0.89 R@10 average and zero cross-tenant leakage. Open-sourced.

  10. 10. baoyu-design Skill Update: Style Fix, AI-Generated Images in PPTX Export

    Fixes stylesheet page-fill and gradient loss issues. Now supports AI-generated images in PPTX export, editable in PowerPoint/Keynote.
