In this tutorial, we explore adaptive experimentation using Meta’s Ax with the modern Client API. We work through a complete workflow where we tune a RandomForest model on a synthetic classification dataset while balancing predictive accuracy against model footprint. We begin by defining a mixed search space with integer, float, log-scaled, and categorical parameters, then…
Our newest music generation model, Lyria 3.5, delivers significant advancements across musicality, lyrics, and vocal quality, empowering you to craft richer tracks. We’re rolling it out today in Google Flow Music, where we want to help you create songs you love, with creative control. Here's what’s new: Improved musicality: Create richer, more complex melodic structures…

7 Steps to Building and Deploying Your First Autonomous Agent Shittu Olumide · Artificial Intelligence · July 27, 2026 The process outlines how to transition autonomous AI agent prototypes into production-ready systems by focusing on robust orchestration and deployment practices. Successful agent development requires…
Onton, a San Francisco-based search and discovery company, has released Ontology 1, a neurosymbolic model for complex, conversational, multimodal product search. On a 90-query benchmark scored by three independent LLM judges, Ontology 1 reached a mean precision@10 of 0.630, against 0.543 for Google Shopping and 0.469 for Amazon. It did this while indexing roughly 1%…
For robots to assist humans in everyday environments, accurate spatial reasoning is not enough. Robots must also think fast, timing their decisions and reasoning with the real-time speed of the physical world. That’s why today we’re launching Gemini Robotics ER 2, our most capable “embodied reasoning” model for robotics. Think of Gemini Robotics ER 2…
Google DeepMind has released Gemini Robotics 2, the intelligence layer for its next generation of robots. The release moves the stack past table-top manipulation into whole body control, five finger dexterity and multi robot teamwork. It ships as three separate models with three different access tiers.
Most robots today are pre-programmed or tele-operated for narrow,…

The narrative around generative AI is shifting in 2026. While massive frontier models keep grabbing headlines, the reality of enterprise AI deployment looks very different. Cost constraints, latency limits, and strict data privacy requirements have pushed engineering teams away from trillion-parameter behemoths and toward small language models (SLMs). Ranging from 1…
Black Forest Labs (BFL) has released FLUX 3, a multimodal foundation model that learns from images, videos and audio inside a single architecture. It is also the first FLUX model to ship video, audio and action prediction from one set of weights.
The Black Forest Labs (BFL) research team argues that no single modality gives…
Developers and customers building production AI agents need higher token efficiency, lower latency, and more reliable performance. Our Flash series of models is built to meet the sweet spot of efficiency and quality to enable scaling agentic workflows. Building on Gemini 3.5 Flash, we’re introducing new Gemini models: 3.6 Flash: Our workhorse model that delivers…
# Introduction
If you ask a chatbot to find you a hotel in London, it will give you a list of names and let you do the rest. If you ask an agent, it checks availability, compares prices across sites, books the room, and emails you the confirmation. That gap between "telling you…
