Google's repository of production-grade AI agents just went public. You don’t even need a Google Cloud account to use it. Agent Garden, a curated collection of ready-to-deploy agent samples built with their Agent Development Kit (ADK), is now available to all developers. This collection caters to a range of use cases, ranging from data science to customer support and RAG. Every sample comes with architectural insights, use case documentation, and source code on GitHub.

In today’s fast-evolving digital landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept reserved for tech giants with massive R&D budgets. Thanks to AI as a Service (AIaaS), small and mid-sized businesses can now access powerful AI tools on demand—without needing to build complex infrastructure or hire in-house data scientists
Imagine you’re building a complex software project with AI agents. You write the task descriptions, define all the branches, and hope you've covered everything. Every branch needs predefined instructions. This open-source framework, Hephaestus, solves this with a radically different approach: agents don't follow predefined workflows. They build the workflow as they discover what's needed.
PyTorch just released Helion, a DSL that compiles high-level Python code into autotuned Triton kernels. Think "PyTorch with tiles" where you write familiar torch operations and the compiler handles the tedious indexing, memory management, and hardware-specific tuning. The interesting bit is the implicit search space: one kernel definition automatically generates thousands of Triton configurations to explore.
Google's Agent Development Kit now supports Go, joining Python and Java as language options for building AI agents with code-first control. The Go implementation ships with Agent2Agent protocol support for multi-agent orchestration and includes MCP Toolbox integration for 30+ databases out of the box

McKinsey released its State of AI 2025 survey of nearly 2K organizations, revealing that while almost every company now uses AI, most are stuck in pilots, with only a fraction achieving enterprise-wide impact or scaling agents. The survey found that 88% of companies now use AI somewhere, but most of them are in experimentation or pilot phases, with just 33% actually scaling it.
Apple is working on new satellite features, including a satellite framework for third-party apps, satellite-powered maps, richer messaging capabilities, 'natural usage' improvements, and satellite over 5G. Bringing most of these new features to market will require major upgrades to Globalstar's satellite infrastructure.
Meta has committed to invest $600B in US-based AI and VR infrastructure by 2028, marking one of the largest private tech investments in American history. The company says the initiative will create 1000s of skilled trade and operational jobs, while strengthening its position with US regulators amid ongoing antitrust and content scrutiny.
The European Commission is considering delaying key parts of its landmark AI law. The potential changes follow intense pressure from the Trump administration, a public letter from 46 European companies including Airbus and Mercedes-Benz, and separate criticism from tech giants like Meta.
