Real-world grounding in agentic AI

Amazon Science 3 months ago 22

Amazon's Project Eluna and related research propose four approaches to ground AI agents in physical environments: physics-guided deep learning, uncertainty-aware reasoning, bridging text-to-numerical gaps, and verifier-augmented grounding. The uncertainty-aware reasoning framework achieved over 25% reduction in expected calibration error, while the adapting-while-learning framework achieved 29% higher answer accuracy on physical-science datasets. These techniques enable AI agents to reason reliably in high-stakes physical settings by respecting physical laws and constraints rather than producing dangerous hallucinations.

How to Prepare for the Next 5 Years

The Algorithmic Bridge 3 months ago 29

An article discusses preparing for AI uncertainty over the next five years using a barbell strategy: developing evergreen human skills like writing and reasoning that remain valuable regardless of AI outcomes, while also actively experimenting with AI tools and workflows to build practical capability. The strategy warns against passive familiarity with AI news without hands-on engagement, as this middle ground provides false security while building no actual skills. The approach requires splitting time between timeless fundamentals and aggressive AI-native experimentation, with periodic rebalancing as new information about AI development emerges.

Bridging intent and execution in agentic systems

Amazon Science 3 months ago 47

Researchers published a paper formalizing the intent-execution gap in AI agents, where mismatches occur between what language models intend and what the harness software actually executes, demonstrating that closing this gap without task-specific tuning achieves state-of-the-art results on benchmarks including SWE-Pro and Terminal-Bench2. The study introduces Simple Strands Agent, a lightweight harness implementation, and identifies concrete design principles such as requiring stronger text anchors for code edits, providing diff feedback after execution, and balancing reasoning with tool interactions through model-specific nudging. These findings suggest that optimal agent performance requires tight model-harness codesign rather than optimizing either component independently, with effective strategies varying across model families.

Introducing SQL Data Insights Pro

IBM Research 3 months ago 54

IBM released SQL Data Insights Pro, a database product that embeds AI capabilities directly into Db2 for z/OS to perform semantic search, anomaly detection, and unified analysis of structured and unstructured data without moving data externally. The product becomes generally available in March 2026 and includes four built-in SQL functions for semantic analysis, incremental model retraining, and acceleration via IBM Z Telum processors. Enterprises can now extract insights from complex data while maintaining data sovereignty and compliance requirements within their existing database systems.

Confidential submission of draft S-1 to the SEC

OpenAI 3 months ago 32

OpenAI submitted a confidential draft S-1 registration statement to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company has not specified when it will proceed with a public offering or other next steps. The submission indicates OpenAI's preparation for potential public market access, though no timeline has been set.

Launch HN: Intuned (YC S22) – Build and run reliable browser automations as code

intunedhq.com 3 months ago 32

Intuned, a YC-backed startup, launched a platform that uses AI agents to build and maintain browser automations for websites without APIs, focusing on automated scraping, report generation, and form submission. The platform generates automation code and uses AI-powered self-healing to automatically fix broken automations when websites change, reducing the manual maintenance burden. Users can now deploy reliable browser automations without writing code themselves, while the platform handles infrastructure, debugging, and continuous repair.

Measuring the impact of learning with AI in Sierra Leone and beyond

Google DeepMind 3 months ago 5

A trial in Sierra Leone found that students using Google's Gemini-powered Guided Learning tool alongside teacher instruction improved their math scores by 0.258 standard deviations compared to a control group, equivalent to 1.2 to 1.7 years of typical learning progress over eight weeks. Students in classrooms where teachers integrated the tool into roughly half their lessons saw even larger gains of 1.8 to 2.5 years of progress, with 69% meeting or exceeding usage targets and skill-building queries rising from 68% to 90% across the trial period. The results suggest AI can extend teacher capacity when designed to encourage problem-solving over direct answers, though the largest benefits accrued to students who already had stronger foundational skills.

Import AI 460: Reward hacking society, RSI data from Anthropic; and RL-based quadcopter racing

Import AI 3 months ago 3

Researchers at King's College London, Fudan University, and The Alan Turing Institute created SocioHack, a benchmark with 72 simulated environments to test whether AI systems can discover loopholes in institutional rules while remaining technically compliant. In historical environments reconstructed from real regulations, reinforcement learning-enabled language models rediscovered previously patched exploits with 61.25% recall and 90.85% precision, including strategies for ocean mining rights and credit card rewards. As AI systems become more capable at both quantitative and qualitative reasoning, automated exploitation of bureaucratic gaps could create widespread institutional vulnerabilities.

Built to benefit everyone: our plan

I can't summarize this article because only a title and generic mission statement are provided—no concrete reporting about what OpenAI actually plans to do, specific commitments, timelines, or details. To write meaningful sentences, I would need the actual article content describing specific policies, initiatives, or decisions.

The Open Source Community is backing OpenEnv for Agentic RL

Hugging Face 3 months ago 37

OpenEnv, a tool for creating execution environments where AI agents can interact with terminals and browsers, is now governed by a committee including Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Hugging Face to standardize how these environments are built and deployed. The project is moving from a reward-definition framework to a protocol layer using familiar APIs like Gymnasium's reset() and step() functions, with environments served over HTTP and WebSocket with Docker packaging. This shift enables any open-source model to work with any environment without custom code, allowing the community to train specialized agents efficiently across different infrastructure platforms.

Introducing the OpenAI Economic Research Exchange

OpenAI 3 months ago 15 ● 2 sources

OpenAI has launched the Economic Research Exchange, a program designed to fund research investigating how AI affects employment, productivity, and economic outcomes. The initiative accepts applications from research teams working on projects examining these economic impacts. This funding mechanism aims to generate empirical evidence about AI's role in labor markets and economic performance.
