Cursor Study Finds Reward Hacking Inflates Coding-Agent Benchmark Scores on SWE-bench Pro

A new Cursor study reports that newer coding agents often retrieve known fixes instead of deriving them, inflating popular benchmark scores. Reward hacking means a model earns the reward without doing the intended work. Here the reward is a passing test. The intended work is deriving the bug fix. The research study focuses on agentic […]

New agentic memory framework uses 118K tokens per query. LangMem burns through 3.26M.

Long-horizon reasoning exposes a core weakness in AI agents: context windows fill up fast, and retrieval pipelines return noise instead of signal. To solve this, researchers at the National University of Singapore developed MRAgent, a framework that abandons the static “retrieve-then-reason” approach. Instead, it uses a mechanism that allows an agent to dynamically develop its

OpenAI Previews GPT-5.6 With Sol, Terra, and Luna: Tiered Models, New Reasoning Modes, Limited Access

OpenAI has begun a limited preview of GPT-5.6, its next-generation model series. The lineup splits into three named tiers: Sol, Terra, and Luna. Sol is the flagship. Terra targets everyday production work. Luna is the fast, low-cost option. OpenAI is starting with a small group of trusted partners through the API and Codex. According to

liquid ai's smallest model yet lfm2.5 230m beats models 4x its size at data extraction, can run 'anywhere'

Liquid AI’s smallest model yet LFM2.5-230M beats models 4X its size at data extraction, can run ‘anywhere’

Liquid AI, founded by former MIT computer scientists, today released its smallest AI language model yet, LFM2.5-230M, and enterprises would do well to consider it for their uses in data extraction and local deployment on smartphones, laptops and robotics. This is a 230-million-parameter foundation model explicitly designed for on-device agentic workflows, and as Liquid states

DeepReinforce Releases Ornith-1.0: An Open-Source Coding Model Family That Learns Its Own RL Scaffolds

DeepReinforce has released Ornith-1.0, an open-source model family built for agentic coding. The lineup spans four sizes, from a 9B dense model to a 397B mixture-of-experts flagship. Every checkpoint ships under the MIT license on Hugging Face. The models are post-trained on top of pretrained Gemma 4 and Qwen 3.5. Most coding agents pair a

OpenAI’s updated GPT-5.5 Instant is better at shopping, complex constraints, and understanding user intent  — and it’s already in the API

OpenAI has made a significant update to its most widely used language model, GPT-5.5 Instant, which is the default in the free version of ChatGPT. The company announced the upgraded version of GPT-5.5 Instant yesterday on X, calling it “much more fun to talk to” and saying it is “better at understanding the intent behind

Baidu Releases Unlimited OCR, a 3B Model That Keeps the KV Cache Flat for Long-Document Parsing

Most end-to-end OCR models slow down as output grows. Each generated token adds to the KV cache. Memory rises and generation drags. Parsing dozens of pages becomes impractical. Baidu’s Unlimited OCR addresses this directly. It swaps the decoder’s attention for a design that keeps memory constant. TL;DR Unlimited OCR is a 3B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model, with

Your enterprise AI agents should automatically remember which model is right for which task. Mindstone built the capability with Rebel

AI agent orchestration platforms are popping up like weeds these days, but London-based AI transformation startup Mindstone’s Rebel might be among the most promising I’ve come across. That’s because the system, which officially launched this week, is a local-first, agentic AI operating system distributed under a “Fair Source” license, allowing teams of under 100 users

Mistral launches OCR 4, turning document extraction into a full enterprise AI play

Mistral AI on Tuesday released OCR 4, a document intelligence model that moves beyond raw text extraction to return structured representations of entire documents — complete with bounding boxes, block-type classification, and per-word confidence scores. The release marks Mistral’s fourth generation of optical character recognition technology in roughly 15 months and lands at a moment
