Agents are AI systems that can perform workflows on users' behalf with a high degree of independence. This guide, designed for product and engineering teams, explores how to build agents with frameworks for identifying promise use cases, clear patterns for designing agent logic and orchestration, and best practices to ensure agents run safely, predictably, and effectively. It provides the foundational knowledge needed to confidently start building agents.
This guide is your go-to resource for streamlining payments, improving cash flow, and keeping your business running smoothly.
What’s inside:
✔️ An actionable 8-step framework to create a seamless payment process
✔️ Expert strategies to reduce late payments and enhance your professional image
A well-structured payment system leads to smoother operations, happier clients, and long-term financial success.

NoSQL databases are growing with very rapid speed because of their exciting features like more flexibility and scalability, schema-free architecture, easy replication support, simple API, consistent / BASE (not ACID), support for big data and more.

AgentAPI brings HTTP connectivity to terminal-based coding agents, letting you control Claude Code, Goose, Aider, and Codex with simple API calls. This open-source tool creates a standardized interface for these AI coding assistants without requiring you to modify their codebase.

3FS (Fire-Flyer File SystemGeez, what a tongue twister) is a distributed filesystem released by DeepSeek during their open source release week. This blog post will dive into what distributed file systems are and how 3FS operates, starting with some background.

This chapter is a condensed review of continuous probability. If you’re comfortable working with continuous random variables, you may want to skip it…

Meta’s FAIR research arm just published five new open-source AI research projects focused on perception and reasoning, showcasing advances in computer vision, 3D understanding, and collaborative AI capabilities. Perception Encoder shows SOTA performance in visual understanding, excelling at tasks like ID’ing camouflaged animals or tracking movements.
Did you know that the World Wide Web was born in Geneva, Switzerland? Indeed, the first version of the Internet cropped up at CERN in 1989. Today the world-renowned center is home to the largest particle accelerator and to the CERN Science Gateway – a must-see hub for science enthusiasts that features hands-on exhibits, immersive virtual reality experiences, and live demonstrations.

Google just launched Gemini 2.5 Flash — a hybrid reasoning AI in preview that matches o4-mini, outperforms Claude 3.5 Sonnet on reasoning/STEM benchmarks, and introduces a new ‘thinking budget’ to optimize cost vs. quality. 2.5 Flash shows significant reasoning boosts over its predecessor (2.0 Flash), with a controllable thinking process to toggle the feature on or off.

Profluent announced ProGen3, a new family of AI models that can design complex proteins from scratch — with the results marking the first evidence of AI scaling laws in biology, proving larger models and more data create stronger results.

OpenAI's Flex processing is a new API option that provides lower AI model usage prices in exchange for slower response times and occasional resource unavailability. It is available in beta for the company's recently released o3 and o4-mini reasoning models. Aimed at lower-priority and non-production tasks, the feature reduces API costs by exactly half.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) reported a 60% year-over-year profit surge in Q1 2025, fueled by soaring demand for AI chips. Despite escalating U.S.-Taiwan trade tensions and Trump-era tariffs, the world’s largest contract chipmaker is holding firm on its annual revenue forecast and continuing to expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint.

How to run a small AI model locally on your phone

Running this model locally will allow you to access it without an internet connection and improve privacy.
Download the PocketPal app through the App Store or the Play Store.
Download the model.
You can download Qwen 2.5 0.5B from Hugging Face. Pick the q4_0 (lighter) or q8_0 (fuller).
You can also download other models if you'd like.
Launch PocketPal, go to the "Models" section, and tap on "+ Local Model."
Choose the model you downloaded and start chatting.
Most hearing aids have one processor. These bad boys have two. They process speech and noise separately. What does this mean? It means speech gets clearer and crisper – more than ever before. Conversations and listening become effortless. Oh, and they’re so tiny, they’re practically invisible. No wonder over 425,000 customers love them.
