Before you share the Netflix documentary "AI Gone Rogue" take note. Clem Delangue, Hugging Face's co-founder who is featured in the film, says it went "full doomer mode" and isn't accurate.

Anthropic is reportedly struggling to secure enough compute from cloud providers that increasingly view it as a competitor, even as its infrastructure spending balloons ahead of a planned November IPO.

Strokes leave 5 million people with long-term impairments each year, and a growing shortage of physical therapists makes it hard for them to get the care they need. A new approach tries to solve that problem by combining artificial intelligence and human therapy. Johannes Lachner, a former MIT postdoc who is now an assistant professor…

arXiv:2610.23866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce GardenBench, a benchmark with 11 test suites that evaluate the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) across a range of tasks. By systematically prompting LLMs with various lightweight queries, we document day-to-day changes in model performance, including run costs and times, that other benchmarks miss. This allows us to compare the accuracy and features of responses across model providers and versions. We account for daily variations in model accuracy, capturing both model progress and degradation, for instance, when a model is changed post-deployment or when a new model is released. We base our evaluation on general-use tasks and make our results publicly accessible via a live dashboard, diversifying existing approaches to LLM testing. Our main contribution is an innovative, lightweight, and inexpensive benchmark, designed to be consumer-facing and for everyday tasks.

arXiv:2610.23921v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: There is growing interest in automating business activities with Agentic Artificial Intelligence (AI) due to latter's seeming ease of use. Never has it been easier, or costlier, to do less with more. However, little is known about when agents are preferable to established alternatives such as local computation, Representational State Transfer (REST), the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), particularly when development speed, performance, and operational cost are considered. We investigate this question using a controlled mathematical task that compares seven methods on a benchmark of 1,000 arithmetic expressions where semantics of operator precedence has to be preserved. We ran this setup across a native Function Calling baseline (Python library), REST, SOAP and MCP microservice architectures, direct responses from large language models (LLMs) using a Groq cloud API and five locally deployed Ollama models, and agentic systems in which five local LLMs invoke MCP tools. The deterministic methods achieve 100% accuracy with negligible latency. Direct LLM evaluation achieves at most 92.9% accuracy a
