Google launched Gemini Decision 1, a new AI model designed to make fast decisions instead of generating lengthy responses. The model can help AI agents choose tools, check content safety, route customer requests, and evaluate information without generating lengthy text. Google is already using it in products, including Stitch and Gemini Notebook. Developers can try it for free through Google AI Studio.

Live Dashboards on Your Production Data. No Warehouse.

Most dashboards read from a warehouse because running analytics on the production database used to mean slowing it down. TimescaleDB removes that tradeoff. Hypertables partition your busiest tables automatically as they grow. Continuous aggregates keep rollups current in the background, so a 30-day dashboard reads pre-computed results instead of rescanning raw rows. Columnar compression cuts storage up to 95%. No ETL job to babysit, no second copy of your data, no new query language. Same Postgres, same SQL, same drivers. Start on Tiger Cloud and get $1000 in credits.

In this detailed guide, we shall examine the basic steps and requirements that should be considered when selecting the most appropriate machine learning model. From a beginner’s viewpoint and with the furthering of one’s knowledge through a machine-learning course, this guide will serve as a helpful resource to aid in making informed decisions when it comes to model choice.

Look at what people are still doing by hand to figure out where your team is. There are a lot of “levels of agentic engineering” lists going around right now. I think they’re useful. Most of them read like a ladder of tools, though: use this, then add that, then buy this. After going through it twice, I’d describe it with one question instead.

This guide shows how to stop tweaking prompts by feel and start improving agents against a consistent eval loop. You’ll learn how to define what good looks like, write the eval before the fix, compare versions without hiding regressions, and keep those checks running in CI and production.

This tutorial walks through the failure modes that keep wasting your time, from agents claiming they’re done when they aren’t to ignoring your rules, burning through limits, and getting worse as a session drags on. You’ll learn the small skills, rules, hooks, and verification tweaks that make each problem much easier to prevent.

AI News:

Jensen Huang's 33-year leadership of Nvidia is at risk as allegations involving his personal relationships and possible security concerns mount. Nvidia's board met yesterday to discuss Huang's removal, just three days after publicly backing his leadership. The board is reportedly working with an outside firm to find potential replacements and considering an interim CEO. Five people who’ve worked at Nvidia told the NYT that Jensen and Kimberly Powell, its health care VP, had an affair that’s been discussed internally.

OpenAI just picked up a travel agent, though not the kind with a brochure rack. It acquired Odessia, a year-old AI travel startup from Sonder founder Francis Davidson, in what looks like an acqui-hire. Odessia had raised a $6M pre-seed led by Sequoia and launched about five months ago, but the tool has already been shut down. Davidson now works at OpenAI on the future of travel.

X wants a cut of the clipping economy, literally. The platform launched its own clipping tool that lets you trim any video, add your take and post it without leaving X. Every clip carries a "Clip from" label linking back to the original, and both creators and clippers can earn from views through X's Original Content Rewards program... so those pricey clipping firms might want to watch out.

Y Combinator-backed startup Blue has launched an AI-powered smartphone designed to handle everyday tasks through simple voice commands. Blue's AI can operate apps on the phone, handling messages, emails, and multi-step tasks in the background. The AI remembers people, past conversations, and personal habits, allowing users to retrieve old information and draft replies without repeating instructions.

DeepMind released AlphaGenome 2, an AI that predicts how small DNA differences between people play out inside specific cell types — a more detailed view than the original that could help trace diseases back to the cell types involved. DeepMind’s Adam Gayoso called it “tying human genetics to cell biology,” as the original version averaged whole tissues while version 2 studies each cell type.

How to Hand Claude a Weekly Job With One Prompt

A Claude beginner types the same 3 prompts every week. A Claude pro types 1 and never types it again. Here's the pro version, using a weekly check of 3 competitors' prices.

  1. Go to Customise → Connectors and turn on Gmail.

  2. Add the Claude in Chrome extension.

  3. Send one prompt with 4 parts: when it runs, the finished result, where it goes and what to tell you:

  4. Prompt: “Every Monday, check the prices on these 3 competitor sites. Save them in a spreadsheet and draft me an email with what changed.”

    Claude then opens the 3 pricing pages, saves the prices in a spreadsheet, drafts the email in Gmail and comes back every Monday.

  5. Type /schedule and pick weekly.
