NVIDIA Releases Alpamayo 2 Super: A 34B Open Vision-Language-Action Model for Robotaxis and Autonomous Driving Under OpenMDW-1.1

NVIDIA released Alpamayo 2 Super, a 34B vision-language-action model for autonomous driving, under OpenMDW-1.1 — a permissive license covering fine-tuning, derivatives and commercial redistribution. It pairs a 32B Cosmos 3 Super Reasoner backbone with a 2.3B diffusion action decoder, scores 79.2 on LingoQA, and emits trajectories, Chain-of-Causation traces, meta-actions, auto-labels and grounded VQA from a single pass.

CopilotKit Open Sources Channels SDK: An MIT Licensed Library That Runs Any AG-UI Agent Inside Slack And Microsoft Teams

CopilotKit has published the Channels SDK, an MIT licensed library that runs an existing AG-UI agent inside Slack and Microsoft Teams. Version 0.5.0 ships five platform adapters and a documented runtime contract. This breakdown covers the verified deployment paths, the baseline requirements, and the one dependency that is easy to miss

Cursor Open-Sources Mixture-of-Kittens (MoK): A Deterministic MoE Training Megakernel for GB300 NVL72 Racks

Cursor Research has open-sourced Mixture-of-Kittens (MoK), the MoE training megakernel behind its Composer models. MoK fuses all mixture-of-experts communication and computation into a single deterministic kernel, and runs up to 2.37x faster than the strongest public baseline on GB300 NVL72 racks. It requires Blackwell SM100 or SM103 GPUs, which puts it out of reach for anyone without NVL72 capacity.

Reflex Open Sources XY: A Rust-Backed Super-Fast Python Charting Library That Keeps 100 Million Point Charts Interactive

Reflex has released XY, an Apache-2.0 Python charting library that moves rendering work into a native Rust core and a WebGL2 client. It holds roughly 0.08 seconds render time from 10,000 to 100 million points, exports a 10-million-point interactive scatter at 258 KiB, and keeps exact f64 columns in Python so hover, selection, and zoom drilldown still return original rows. The library is early alpha at version 0.0.1.

Y Combinator Open-Sources QM: An MIT-Licensed Multiplayer Agent Harness That Runs In Slack And The Web

Y Combinator has open-sourced QM, the multiplayer agent harness it uses internally across accounting, legal, events, and engineering. Released July 31, 2026 under an MIT license, QM gives each employee an isolated workspace and each Slack room its own scoped memory, files, keychain view, permissions, crons, web apps, and durable sandbox. Pi, OpenCode, Codex, and Claude Code all drive the same headless core, so deployments avoid vendor lock-in.

How to Secure AI Agents, MCP Servers, and LLM Apps in Production

AI agents, MCP servers, and LLM apps break the core AppSec assumption that applications do what their code says. This guide walks through a practical see-fix-protect framework: a five-layer agentic AI attack surface map, a 12-point misconfiguration checklist, an evidence-based triage matrix, runtime guardrails, and system prompt hardening — plus a maturity self-assessment aligned to NIST AI RMF, OWASP AIMA, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act.

Alibaba Qwen Releases Qwen3.8-Max: A 2.4 Trillion Parameter MoE Model and the Most Capable One in the Qwen Family to Date

Alibaba's Qwen team moved Qwen3.8-Max from preview to general availability, with published per-token pricing and open weights due next week. The 2.4T parameter MoE model accepts text, image and video input across a 1M-token context. No benchmark table has been published.

Thinking Machines Lab Releases Inkling-Small: A 276B Total, 12B Active Open Weights Multimodal MoE Model

Inkling-Small matches Inkling at a quarter the size, and its NVFP4 checkpoint runs on one NVIDIA B300 GPU

NVIDIA AI Releases Molt: A PyTorch-Native Agentic Reinforcement Learning Framework

Agentic RL research is constant algorithm modification, and in mainstream frameworks every change threads through trainer, distributed backend, and rollout glue. NVIDIA's Molt targets that cost with about 8.6K lines of RL code, composing Ray, vLLM, and NeMo AutoModel around one asynchronous loop. The agent stays ordinary Python, trajectories stay token-exact, and throughput comes out statistically comparable to a Megatron-based stack.

AMD Releases Instella-MoE-16B-A3B: A Fully Open Mixture-of-Experts LLM With 2.8B Active Parameters Trained On Instinct GPUs

AMD released Instella-MoE-16B-A3B, a fully open Mixture-of-Experts language model trained from scratch on Instinct MI300X and MI325X GPUs. It holds 16B total parameters but activates only 2.8B per token, using Gated MLA and FarSkip-Collective. AMD published weights from every training stage, plus data mixtures, configs, and inference code.

MiniMax Releases MiniMax H3: An Omni-Modal Video Model That Generates 15-Second 2K Clips With Native Stereo Audio

MiniMax releases MiniMax H3, a general-purpose multimodal generation model. MiniMax H3 is not a text-to-video model with add-ons. MiniMax describes it as a general-purpose...
