AI factories are built by the megawatt, even by the gigawatt. Each megawatt factory costs roughly $60 million, and AI factory operators will only commit capital on that scale with a clear view of the return on investment. Three key things shape AI factory returns: Earning capacity: What the factory could earn in a year […]
Benefitting from the Bitter Lesson
... but you can’t try it yet unless you are “government users and trusted cyber defenders in the Fairwind Program”
The common paradigm of reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is to let agents make multiple attempts at a task, and optimize towards the successful ones. This becomes problematic in the realms of self-improvement, where tasks are so difficult that the agent has a low or even no chance of success, and where there are no teacher models or example solutions to distill from. In this paper, we introduce RLTL;DR. After each failed attempt, we show the policy the verifier outputs and let it write its own feedback, in the form of a single TL;DR insight. The next rollout is conditioned…
Recent autonomous machine learning engineering (MLE) agents have made significant progress on public leaderboards. Often motivated by progress stagnation over long-horizon cycles and limited Large Language Model (LLM) primitives, modern MLE agents are deployed on top of increasingly elaborate machinery: multi-agent orchestrators, dedicated retrieval subagents, and more. While such harnesses expand, the use of more primitive but improved coding agents—where LLMs have direct access to the execution environment through read, write, and bash primitives—has received little attention in the field…

Bringing together the world’s brightest minds and the latest accelerated computing technology leads to powerful breakthroughs that help tackle some of the biggest research problems. To foster such innovation, the NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program provides grants, mentors and technical support to doctoral students doing outstanding research relevant to NVIDIA technologies. The program, in its 26th […]
Cockroach Labs co-founder Peter Mattis discusses building reliable distributed systems and how AI helps him write more code without sacrificing quality.
Extreme space-weather events can damage power systems on Earth and degrade GPS accuracy and satellite operations. A new machine learning system can predict where damage is likely to occur 30-60 minutes before a storm arrives.

Proof of concept for watermarking AI-generated proteins while preserving biological function.
Building on nearly a decade of co-engineering, CoreWeave has built NVIDIA compute, networking and software into a cloud purpose-built for AI that’s still returning on investment across multiple generations of deployment. Now, CoreWeave is bringing the next generation of NVIDIA infrastructure to production. At CoreWeave Fully Connected, running this week in San Francisco, CoreWeave announced […]
Two months after the bombshell news that a swarm of its agents had broken their containment and hacked into the computers of the AI company Hugging Face, OpenAI is still putting out fires. A steady drip of disclosures about other hacks in the weeks since has kept OpenAI in the spotlight and raised serious questions…
the most confident DevDay yet.
Continual-learning agents are systems of models, harnesses, and memory operating over long multi-session horizons. Evaluating and training them requires interleaving tasks with agent-side events such as session stop and start, crons, and memory consolidation. Yet existing benchmarks and training frameworks schedule only the benchmark’s own events, leaving each benchmark and agent pair to build a custom scheduling loop. We present SCLATE, an execution substrate where benchmarks and unmodified agents each add their events to one open event scheduler through an adapter. A hybrid simulated clock…
Controlling the output of Large Language Models (LLMs) is a central challenge for their reliable deployment, yet a clear understanding of the involved trade-offs remains elusive. Current approaches to conditioning are often evaluated with a narrow focus on their effectiveness at injecting or removing a target concept, neglecting generation quality. We systematically investigate a range of conditioning methods in both injection and removal scenarios. We find that efficient steering methods frequently achieve conditioning at a steep cost to fluency. Furthermore, we identify a critical yet…
Laptop chips have gotten very powerful in recent years, with increasing CPU core counts, more powerful iGPUs, and higher DRAM bandwidth to feed that compute.

Biology doesn't operate in silos, and neither should the AI representation of it. Quine is an early-stage research effort to create a multimodal world model of biology. By connecting insights across biological scales and modalities, Quine helps scientists computationally search a space far larger than intuition allows and prioritize hypotheses before they reach the lab. Experimental results provide important feedback, helping researchers sharpen future research directions. The post Introducing Quine: An AI research system designed for the complexity of biology appeared first on Microsoft Research .
When customers talk about AI costs, the conversation usually starts with token prices and ends with access to the latest, most capable model in the cloud. Do they always need that level of capability? Not necessarily. But that is often where the conversation goes. As AI moves from experimentation to production, model choice is only…
When language models reason in chain-of-thought or exchange free-text intermediates, they serialize structured information into natural language. How much tree-structured compositional content survives this bottleneck? We propose a round-trip protocol that answers this question empirically for tree-structured expressions. A generator converts a procedurally generated arithmetic expression into a word problem, a separate extractor recovers the expression from the word problem alone, and symbolic equivalence provides an exact oracle. Evaluating all pairwise combinations of sixteen models yields…
