An AI agent for all? Try using your brain, Mark Zuckerberg | Brief letters

Meta AI | Future Guardian writers and Neets | Food for thought | Plants surviving the heat | Living and dying well Your article ( Zuckerberg pushes ‘superintelligent’ AI for all as Meta releases open-weight model, 10 August ) quotes Mark Zuckerberg as saying: “Everyone will have an exceptionally capable personal agent that understands you, your goals, and everything you care about. You’ll be able to interact with your agent through any device, including your glasses.” He is wasting his time, as we already have one – it’s called “your brain”. Peter Wallis North Luffenham, Rutland • I agree wholeheartedly with 16-year-old Emad Rehman’s letter ( 12 August ) about why it’s wrong to label an 11-year-old as a “likely future Neet” – and bearing in mind the elegant manner in which his point was made, I think you should offer him a position at the Guardian.

How to Utilize OKF Efficiently to Enable Knowledge Exchange Among LLMs

Google's Open Knowledge Format (OKF) is a Markdown+YAML skeleton for sharing knowledge between humans and AI agents. This post reuses that skeleton for a very specific job — an agent-to-agent hand-off of pre-tokenized integer arrays between three Qwen2.5-Coder models (7B, 3B, 1.5B) — and shows the 28–37% TTFT reduction plus the one full-vocabulary equivalence check that keeps the whole thing safe.

Deepseek ships improved V4 Pro, open-sources its agent software, and raises API prices

Deepseek has moved its flagship V4-Pro out of the testing phase and released its agent software, Harness v0.1, under the MIT license. API prices are going up at the same time, with cache hits jumping to six times their current cost. For agent workflows that repeatedly read the same files, that's the biggest price increase in the transition.

I find the 5.6 pricing to be seriously misleading

I find the 5.6 pricing to be seriously misleading

We’ve been using gpt-5.6-luna lately in our production systems. I finally figured out that the pricing that is quoted is misleading. The claim is that the price is $0.20 per million input tokens. You pay 1.25x for write cache and 0.1x for read cache. You can choose explicit mode or implicit mode for caching. In explicit mode, you tag each input block that you want to be written to cache. Other inputs won’t be cached. In implicit mode, the system takes care of it for you. At least for us the main reason that this pricing is misleading is that, in practice, there is no real option NOT to use implicit mode. And that means that ALL of your input tokens are getting charged at 25% above that stated price (except for the cache hits of course). So you might say, “Well, just use explicit mode. You decide what to cache.” Yes, but there’s a big catch. When you use function tools (as we do extensively), each tool call generates tool results that have to go back to the model. And while implicit caching will work on those, there’s no way to mark these tool results as cacheable. Normally you wouldn’t think that a tool result would be cacheable. But remember that when making a chain of calls, the recommended process is to append the tool results to the end of the same input chain. So all of your stuff that didn’t appear to be cacheable, including those tool results, really needs to be cacheable for the subsequent steps in the same response generation (for each set of tool calls made by the…

FP8 Training on AMD GPUs with TorchTitan and TorchAO: Upstreaming Performance Improvements

At the PyTorch Conference 2025, we demonstrated linear scaling beyond 1,000 GPUs on AMD Instinct clusters using Primus-Turbo, an AMD optimization library for training frameworks such as TorchTitan. We have since upstreamed those AMD optimizations so TorchTitan supports AMD Instinct(™) GPUs directly, with competitive FP8 performance out of the box. All contributions mentioned have been merged into upstream pytorch/AO and pytorch/TorchTitan.
