This week, Anthropic released Claude Science. It is an app for scientists, available in beta. It runs on Anthropic’s existing Claude models, not a new model. The app targets researchers who juggle databases, notebooks, and cluster terminals. It runs multi-step research and records how each result was made. The beta is available for Pro, Max,

Traditional robot programming is hard to scale. It requires orchestrating multimodal perception, physical contact dynamics, diverse configurations, and execution failures by hand. Code-as-policy systems let language models compose these into executable robot programs. That makes robot behavior inspectable, editable, and debuggable. But existing robotic coding agents run in naive execution environments. They receive only coarse,

Today, Mistral AI released Leanstral 1.5. It is a code agent model built for Lean 4. The release targets automated theorem proving and proof engineering. Weights are open under Apache 2.0. A free API endpoint, leanstral-1-5, is now live. Leanstral 1.5 updates the earlier Leanstral-2603 model. It belongs to the Mistral Small 4 family. What

In this tutorial, we build an end-to-end accounts-payable extraction pipeline with lift-pdf, using synthetic invoice PDFs as controlled test documents and a structured JSON schema as the target output format. Instead of treating invoice parsing as a simple OCR task, we frame it as schema-guided document understanding: we generate realistic invoices, define fields such as

WebBrain is a free, open-source browser agent for Chrome and Firefox. It reads pages, extracts data, and automates multi-step tasks. Unlike most browser AI plugins, it can also run entirely on a local model. It is built by Emre Sokullu and licensed under MIT. The full source lives on GitHub.  Run the agent against a

Interfaze, a young YC’s startup, has open-sourced a new speech recognition model. It is called diffusion-gemma-asr-small. The model transcribes audio through a diffusion decoder, not an autoregressive one. It is described as the first multilingual audio diffusion ASR model. One adapter handles six languages. The research team trained only about 42M parameters on top of

In this tutorial, we build a RAG-Anything workflow and use it to explore how multimodal retrieval works across text, tables, equations, and images. We start by preparing the Colab environment, installing the required packages, and securely entering our OpenAI API key at runtime to keep the notebook practical and safe to run. We then create
