Meta researchers taught an 8B AI model to match Claude Opus 4.5 — without the frontier price tag
Consider an AI agent tasked with a complex enterprise workflow like migrating massive batches of customer records from a legacy CRM to a cloud database. The agent cannot rely solely on its internal context window for a job spanning hours and depends on the runtime layer, aka the harness.This harness provides execution feedback, like server logs, to help the agent maintain an accurate understanding of dynamic API connections. It also provides state trackers and control-flow mechanisms to manage completed and pending subgoals, ensuring the agent doesn t skip or duplicate data batches. When unexpected errors occur, such as a database rejecting a batch due to strict API rate limits, the harness provides tools and instructions to help the agent recover.The main way to tell an agent how and when to use its tools is to have a human developer write a set of rules and instructions telling it what to do step-by-step. For example, a developer might instruct the agent to always search the company
Trump’s EPA wants to let data centers hide their air pollution
Just as new data centers face growing backlash from neighboring communities, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is about to make it harder for people to weigh in on any pollution those centers create. The EPA plans to toss out a federal rule requiring public notice and an opportunity to comment when certain industrial sites apply for an air permit. Advocates warn that the move would allow data center developers and other industries to break ground without giving nearby residents a say, or even a warning that construction is planned. "You can see why that would be so interesting to an administration that wants to rush through the … Read the full story at The Verge.

Cohere Parse 5 loses the benchmark on points. It wins on cost per page.
Enterprises trying to feed PDFs, slides and scanned documents into AI pipelines keep running into the same wall: the tools either miss the structure — tables, charts, layout — or cost too much to run at scale.Cohere released Parse 5 on Thursday, positioning it on price-to-performance, not raw accuracy — the right cost-capability mix for enterprise scale. Parse 5 is a 2.3-billion-parameter vision language model built to convert PDFs, slides and images into structured Markdown at enterprise scale. Cohere s own published benchmark comparison puts Parse 5 behind three larger, general-purpose frontier models on accuracy. GPT-5.5, Opus 4.8 and Gemini 3.5 Flash all score higher than Parse on the three ParseBench dimensions Cohere reports. Cohere is not claiming the top score. It is claiming the best price for a score close to the top.The company priced the model at $1.50 per 1,000 pages through its API, with Model Vault, Cohere s secure, single-tenant platform for managed inference, available

The iPhone Fold could make concerts even worse
You know the person blocking your view of the concert because their phone is swaying in the air, recording the entire thing? Get ready for the unfolded version of it. This week on The Vergecast, we dive right into the big week of Apple news. First, it's the refreshed Mac Mini and Mac Studio, as well as the new M6 and M5 Ultra chips. Apple is advertising them all as achievements in AI inference, but we're skeptical this is more than a marketing ploy for now. Then we get into the newly announced Apple event, why we're not expecting to see an iPhone 18, and whether the folding phone form factor is really good enough yet for Apple. After that, … Read the full story at The Verge.
