Scientists are using AlphaFold to strengthen a photosynthesis enzyme for resilient, heat-tolerant crops.
GPT-5.2 is OpenAI’s strongest model yet for math and science, setting new state-of-the-art results on benchmarks like GPQA Diamond and FrontierMath. This post shows how those gains translate into real research progress, including solving an open theoretical problem and generating reliable mathematical proofs.
Everyone talks about LLMs—but today’s AI ecosystem is far bigger than just language models. Behind the scenes, a whole family of specialized architectures is quietly transforming how machines see, plan, act, segment, represent concepts, and even run efficiently on small devices. Each of these models solves a different part of the intelligence puzzle, and together they’re shaping the next generation of AI systems. In this article, we’ll explore the five major players: Large Language Models (LLMs), Vision-Language Models […]
Zhipu AI has open sourced the GLM-4.6V series as a pair of vision language models that treat images, video and tools as first class inputs for agents, not as afterthoughts bolted on top of text. Model lineup and context length The series has 2 models. GLM-4.6V is a 106B parameter foundation model for cloud and high performance cluster workloads. GLM-4.6V-Flash is a 9B parameter variant tuned for local deployment and low latency use. GLM-4.6V extends the training context […]

Say a person takes their French Bulldog, Bowser, to the dog park. Identifying Bowser as he plays among the other canines is easy for the dog-owner to do while onsite. But if someone wants to use a generative AI model like GPT-5 to monitor their pet while they are at work, the model could fail at this basic task. Vision-language models like GPT-5 often excel at recognizing general objects, like a dog, but they perform poorly at locating […]

New data confirms Cato scholar David Bier’s report that DHS publicly dismissed as “made up”: 71% of ICE arrests in early October had no criminal convictions, and 45% had no convictions or even pending charges. lead , , The data—directly from ICE—shows arrests of non-criminals have surged 585% year-over-year while ICE ignores nearly 500,000 removable immigrants with actual convictions. You can read Bier’s full analysis here. His previous data can be found here. If you’d like to speak with Bier, […]
