Stop making AI decisions in the dark.
Leadership is asking: are we getting value from AI? Which tools are worth the spend? Where are we exposed? Right now, most teams have no idea.
Harmonic Security Usage Explorer changes that.
You get a complete picture of how your organization uses AI, automatically categorized into custom tasks and use cases.
You’ll see the projects being worked on, who’s using what tools, where AI investments are driving value, and where employees are engaging in risky behavior.
CIOs can rationalize spending and cut wasted licenses. CISOs can pinpoint where risk exists and neutralize it. AI committees can show exactly how their efforts are paying off.
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.
DeepSeek Harness is now in developer preview, with source code included. Every capability is a plugin that can be swapped or recomposed. Developers can select, swap, or extend any capability in the configuration without changing the DeepSeek Harness source code. Everything the model sees is recorded in an append-only session log.

City2Graph is a Python library that turns buildings, streets, public transport feeds, origin–destination matrices, zones, and points of interest into spatial and heterogeneous graphs. It bridges GeoPandas, NetworkX, and PyTorch Geometric so the same geospatial data can support network analysis, urban research, and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs)…
I turned off reasoning and gave six frontier models the same 500 random five-digit multiplication problems. Each model had to answer directly, with no scratchpad work along the way. Most struggled: five of the six scored below 30%, and none reached 90% accuracy…Most research on this gap has approached it as a problem of learning

Anthropic published a new study testing how AI agents act while in groups, with its wildest test seeing a shared server devolve into a “turf war” with three Claude agents sabotaging and locking each other out over four hours. A codebase was given to three hidden Claude agent co-owners, with each assigned a rewrite in a different programming language.
Writer, which offers AI tools and agents for marketers, just launched a new flagship model called Palmyra X6 in an effort to provide a lower per-token cost model option to users. Built as a post-training variation on Z.ai’s open source model GLM-5.2, the company estimates the new model will cut costs for customers by as much as 50% for basic tasks.
DeepSeek set V4-Pro output at $3.96 per million tokens during peak hours and $1.98 outside them, up from a flat $0.87. Claude Haiku 4.5, the cheapest model Anthropic currently sells, charges $5 per million output tokens. V4-Pro is the largest model DeepSeek has built, with 1.6 trillion parameters and a million-token context window.
New model ships at half the cost of 3.6 Flash with improved debugging and multi-step task completion, available now to Gemini Spark subscribers in 160+ countries
