WorkOS releases auth.md, an open agent registration protocol built on OAuth standards. However, as we delve into its failure modes, we find potential security and scaling consequences.

A recently merged pull request in llama.cpp addresses a subtle but critical race condition in how model checkpoints are created, potentially leading to corrupted saves and lost training progress.

Exploring the fundamental gap between current AI's statistical pattern recognition and genuine causal reasoning, and what it implies for AI's ability to truly 'understand' the world. This post argues that current AI models, despite impressive feats, are fundamentally limited by their reliance on correlation rather than causation, posing risks in critical applications.

Samsung's decision to offer significant bonuses to its semiconductor division employees, reportedly up to 12 million won ($9,000) per person, is framed by the company as a reward for performance in the high-performance computing and AI chip sectors. However, the substantial nature of these bonuses, coupled with recent industry trends and talent acquisition wars, warrants a deeper look.
