This talk explores advanced context engineering for AI coding agents. It details strategies like spec-first development, frequent intentional compaction, and subagent workflows. It shows how context management transforms unreliable prototypes into scalable systems for real-world software projects and large codebases.

Although machine learning is one part of the greater AI market, it is the most commonly implemented form of AI and growing rapidly in business. The machine learning market reached a value of about $1.41 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $8.81 billion by 2025, according to 360 Research Reports.

GitHub too decided to join the CLI agent group with Copilot CLI, now in public preview, because apparently having OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and half the tech universe already camping in your command line wasn't crowded enough. Copilot CLI comes with the usual “checklist” of features - MCP support, GitHub integration, AGENTS.md files.

Perplexity has launched its Search API, giving you access to the same global-scale infrastructure that powers its public answer engine with an index covering hundreds of billions of webpages. The API is optimized for AI applications with fine-grained document indexing that surfaces the most relevant snippets already ranked. The team has also released an open-source evaluation framework showing that they outperform competitors like Exa, Brave, and SEPR on both output quality and latency.

While Meta shelved the much-hyped Llama 4 Behemoth after lukewarm reception, they've been cooking something more targeted in their labs. Meta's FAIR CodeGen team just dropped Code World Model (CWM), a 32B parameter coding and reasoning model that takes a completely different approach to code generation by learning how code actually executes.

Investors have historically turned to gold because of its stability. Gold can act like a safety net in your portfolio because its value tends to stay afloat – even when the stock market dives. It’s also considered a hedge against inflation, meaning its value can rise as the buying power of cash goes down. Check out our list of top-rated Gold IRA providers, including some that offer educational materials for gold-investing beginners.

Elon Musk’s AI start-up, xAI, is giving the US government access to its AI chatbot, Grok, for just ¢42 per user, p/y (for 1 ½ years), with the “symbolic” low price highlighting Musk’s “commitment to public service.” This comes after Grok was recently approved (in August) by the General Services Administration (despite generating controversial posts) to become an official vendor of the Whitehouse.

xAI just filed a new lawsuit accusing OpenAI of systematically poaching employees to steal trade secrets, the latest legal move in the ongoing contentious battle between Elon Musk and his former company. xAI named 8 former employees allegedly recruited via a coordinated effort, including several who admitted copying source code to personal devices.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order yesterday approving a proposal that could keep TikTok alive in the US. The deal would involve creating a new joint-venture company that will oversee TikTok's US business. China has yet to approve the terms. No representatives from ByteDance were present at the signing, and the company has not acknowledged that a transaction is taking place.

Data and analytics platform Databricks has signed a $100M multi-year deal with OpenAI to integrate its AI models into its platform, giving business users access to advanced AI tools (that can be used alongside its own AI agent, Agent Bricks) without needing to exit the platform.
As we age, our muscles naturally lose mass, strength, and functionality, which can lead to fatigue and weakness beginning as early as our 30s. Recent studies indicate that our mitochondria—the cellular powerhouses that generate 90% of our energy—play a crucial role in this decline, contributing to reduced muscle function as we age. A new way to support and improve muscle health as we age, Mitopure® by Timeline is clinically shown to meaningfully boost our mitochondrial health to improve muscle strength, without any change in exercise required. Ready to feel stronger, for longer with Mitopure? Big Data News Weekly readers can take 30% off their first month with code 30NEWSLETTER for a limited time. While supplies last.
*500mg Mitopure® have been shown to (1) induce gene expression related to mitochondria function and metabolism and (2) increase the strength of the hamstring leg muscle in measures of knee extension and flexion after 4 months in overweight 40-65 year olds.
