DeepSeek has open-sourced DeepSeek Harness, the runtime that turns a language model into a working agent. The project can edit files, run shell commands, manage sessions, use subagents, and launch a local Web UI with one command. The interesting part isn't that another free coding agent exists. It's that DeepSeek made every layer of the agent replaceable, including the loop that decides how the agent works.

The CX Architects: Designing the Future of Customer Experience

Running a CX team used to mean following established playbooks. AI changed that overnight, transforming the role before our eyes. In this Career Transformation conversation, host Deepina Kapila talks with three leaders who shaped what came next: Kayla Arp (PrizePicks), Chris Rule (Turno), and Amy Harvey (TrueCommerce), on what changed, the challenges they faced, and where CX is headed. Watch the recording on-demand now.

AI agent platforms and AI agent builders are transforming how businesses automate workflows, enhance productivity, and develop intelligent assistants. In 2026, several AI-powered tools stand out for their advanced capabilities, ease of use, and integration support.

A Silicon Valley-based startup just unveiled the “OpenRouter for coding agents.” Devs can pick a harness and a model, and the platform handles the rest. You can swap agents with a config change without losing history or rebuilding integrations. Dev teams can use its Agent Playground to run tasks across different agents with GitHub-connected tools, then compare cost and results side-by-side to find the best workflow.

🚀 Dive into the World of Machine Learning System Design! 🌐How do companies like Netflix, Airbnb, and Doordash apply machine learning to improve their products and processes? We put together a database of 800 case studies from 100 companies that share practical ML use cases and learnings from designing ML systems.

Hit a usage limit halfway through a task? This tool lets you carry the session into another coding agent without starting over. It currently works across Claude Code, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, Copilot CLI, Cursor, and more.

This tutorial teaches harness engineering using Pi Agent, DeepSeek, and Gemini. You’ll learn how to design structured agentic environments, overcoming LLM performance bottlenecks to create reliable, autonomous coding workflows capable of executing complex, multi-step software development tasks.

AI News:

OAI just published the first benchmark results for Jalapeño, the custom chip it built with Broadcom to run AI models (not train them), with its tests showing wins over Nvidia's flagship systems on both speed and power efficiency. In tests, OAI's 700-watt chip topped Nvidia’s own options rated at 1,200 watts, answering up to 3.6x faster with up to 1.9x more work per watt.

Apple’s newest processors are here. The tech leader announced its new M5 Ultra and M6 chips, which power its new Mac Mini and Mac Studio. Apple’s deeming the M5 Ultra its “most powerful chip ever,” as it fuses two dual-die M5 Max chips to form Apple’s first quad-die chip, designed to manage hefty AI workloads.

Perplexity and Nvidia just launched Portable Computer, a new on-device take on Perplexity’s Computer agent that keeps files private and is free to run locally on Nvidia’s DGX Spark consumer hardware. Users can select between Qwen 3.8 27B or Perplexity’s own PPLX 27B as the local model, with the option to call in 15+ cloud models when needed.

OpenAI checks each sign-in request with a second model that looks for phishing before anyone types anything. A password manager works inside the browser window, and whatever a person types there stays with the remote browser. A security code may be needed too, and once the sign-in works the session can stay open for later tasks. ChatGPT has to ask before it books a reservation or pays, and a website can block the browser completely.

What a year for tech IPOs. Anthropic is reportedly preparing to tell IPO investors that its potential revenue opportunity exceeds $30 trillion. The figure would top the $28.5 trillion estimate SpaceX presented to investors ahead of its own IPO. In the process, the Claude maker could also aim to raise as much as $100 billion in the offering, targeting a valuation of about $2 trillion.
