Nutanix pivots to an agentic AI infrastructure platform
Nutanix CEO Rajiv Ramaswami says the company is evolving from a hyper‑converged hardware vendor into an "agentic infrastructure" platform that can run today’s applications and tomorrow’s AI workloads. The shift focuses on higher GPU utilization, cost‑per‑token economics and a strategic partnership with AMD to boost performance.

AI‑powered dating startups are emerging to replace swipe‑based matchmaking with conversational agents. London‑based Fate uses a large‑language‑model interview to generate five curated matches and offers an AI coach that suggests questions during chats. Other entrants such as Sitch and Keeper claim similar “soulmate” capabilities, positioning AI as a remedy for superficial ranking systems used by Tinder, Bumble and Hinge. Early users report more thoughtful rejections and a few second dates, though privacy and authenticity concerns persist.
The global energy transition won’t scale without people. Newly qualified energy workers aren’t keeping pace with demand, and without a ~40% increase in trained entrants by 2030, the skills gap will widen fast. This is where #AI, digital skills, and reskilling become...
ByteDance unveiled Doubao 2.0, an upgraded AI model aimed at the emerging “agent era,” during the Lunar New Year holiday. The pro version claims reasoning and multi‑step task capabilities comparable to OpenAI’s GPT 5.2 and Google’s Gemini 3 Pro, while cutting usage costs by...

The vertical integration of intelligence is non-negotiable. Control your platforms, models, chips, and data centers or watch providers do to you what you're trying to do to them. Microsoft AI is all-in on this. But they're caught in a bind: vertical...
Is Claude Code a threat to Clay? Here’s why I think, for now, that answer is no. And most (almost all) of my business is now Claude Code. And I designed it that way because it’s what I enjoy, not...
Bytedance unveiled the Seed2.0 AI model family—Pro, Lite and Mini—plus a dedicated code model. Seed2.0 Pro achieved top scores on visual math, logic and perception benchmarks, even surpassing GPT‑5.2, Claude Opus 4.5 and Gemini 3 Pro in several categories. The series is priced dramatically lower,...

The tutorial demonstrates how to construct a self‑organizing memory architecture for AI agents that moves beyond flat chat logs toward structured, persistent knowledge units. It introduces a SQLite‑backed database that stores atomic memory cells, groups them into scenes, and maintains...
This little-known Chinese AI lab just dropped an AI model 3x faster and 20x cheaper than Claude. Here’s what the headlines won’t tell you:
Researchers at the National University of Singapore unveiled D‑I‑TASSER, a new AI‑driven software that predicts three‑dimensional protein structures with 13% higher accuracy than leading methods. The tool fragments complex proteins, models each segment with deep learning, then reassembles them using...
Hot take: The marketing tool stack is broken. Not because the tools are bad. Because having 12 of them that don't talk to each other is insane. I'm doing a free webinar on Feb 24 with someone who's built a platform where...

Series‑A founders have access to powerful AI‑driven GTM automation tools, yet most still miss the $10M‑$25M revenue milestones.

Chatbot ≠ Agentic. RPA ≠ Agentic. RAG ≠ Agentic. Agentic AI = orchestrator + memory + planning + tools + feedback, plus multi-agent specialists (retrieval/coding/citations). The board question: where do we allow autonomy—and with what guardrails? https://t.co/AEnajJZeEP

Interesting finding on frontier model performance on ARC -- due to extensive direct targeting of the benchmark, models are overfitting to the original ARC encoding format. Frontier model performance remains largely tied to a familiar input distribution.

I don't really understand devs who jump back and forth between LLM providers. Claude, Codex, Claude, Gemini, back to Codex, then Claude. What marginal improvement can be worth the massive context shift every single time? Pick one and build. You won't have...
I appreciate this reflection on why ARC matters, but in the replies I expressed some reservations about what high accuracy on ARC benchmarks actually reflects for assessing "human-like fluid intelligence" (Chollet's stated goal for ARC).
Agentic AI isn’t about learning 10 steps. It’s about mastering 4 loops: Perception → Memory → Planning → Action. Frameworks change. Autonomy principles don’t. Build agents that think in systems, not prompts. https://t.co/yINTc7aLJZ
If you can't trace what data, tools, and rules led to an agent's decision, you're not ready for production. Decision provenance and observability are critical release criteria. #Observability #AI #DevOps https://t.co/1tg10UmJNv
