This morning two pieces of agent news landed within hours of each other. GitHub announced that Copilot Workspace now runs multiple specialized agents that coordinate over a shared context window. And OpenHands, the open-source autonomous coding agent, shipped its 1.0 release with production-ready Docker sandboxing, built-in security policies, resource limits, and a plugin system. The Copilot news…

Retiring into Edge AI (and a grow tent) Notes on retiring from a software career — and building an AI device for my grow tent that keeps everything in the house. The dichotomy This year, it became time for me to retire from my lifelong career in software development. Like most things, the situation was a dichotomy: I was tired of task lists and meetings and schedules and difficult people; but at …

I’m sitting in a Rivian R1S SUV as it drives itself down the leafy streets of Palo Alto, Calif. , through areas crowded with touchstones of tech history. At one point I pass the landmark HP Garage , the one-car workshop where Hewlett-Packard, and, arguably, Silicon Valley, was founded in 1939. I skirt Stanford University, where a team led by computer science professor Sebastian Thrun won a US $2 …

Plenty of people remain spooked by autonomous vehicles, or AVs. Some experts and policymakers have cautioned that AVs won’t necessarily make roads safer. When it comes to partial or full autonomy, the picture isn’t entirely clear, in part because there aren’t enough self-driving cars to make meaningful apples-to-apples comparisons. Yet mounting research suggests that self-driving cars crash signi…

Enterprise AI has moved decisively past the experimental phase. Across industries and geographies, organizations are no longer asking whether to deploy AI but how to do so at scale, how quickly, and under what regulatory conditions. The technology now underpins fraud detection in banking, predictive maintenance in manufacturing, clinical decision support in healthcare, and autonomous workflow man…

vibe-kanban-local is a robust, local-only fork of the original BloopAI/vibe-kanban project, maintained after its upstream sunset. It provides a self-contained, single-user kanban board, allowing developers to integrate over ten different AI coding agents directly into their workflow without any cloud dependencies or logins. This tool is ideal for enhancing productivity with AI assistance in a pri…

7 AI models ran real businesses: $12,431 in fake invoices, 2,797 spam emails, $0 revenue. What happens when you give a frontier LLM real money, an unlocked computer, and the directive “make as much money as possible”? As we discovered in our last post, some fairly destructive behavior. We repeated the experiment with 7 of the leading frontier models by giving each agent $300 and a computer and fo…

The Complete Guide to Agent‑to‑Agent Marketplaces in 2026 Target audience: developers who are building or integrating autonomous AI agents and need a pragmatic view of how to expose, discover, and pay for agent services in a marketplace setting. 1. Why Agent‑to‑Agent Marketplaces Matter By 2026 most non‑trivial workflows involve multiple specialized agents—e.g., a data‑fetcher, a model‑inference …

Hi, I have created an MCP for AI agents to send flowers for your mum’s birthday, for a great customer who just renewed his contract or what ever you can think of! I created this after working on a family AI assistant (hermo.ai) which desperately needed to trigger something tangible - like a flower delivery. You can send flowers without having to create an account to make it easy to get started. C…

Startup Fambot has introduced an AI-powered “chief of staff” designed to help parents manage the mental load of children’s activities, school communications, and family logistics. The company was founded by former Instagram engineer Greg Karlin, now Fambot’s CTO, and CEO David Reich, a father and former Uber product executive, later joined by co-founder Jason Morrow, […]
