New State Council measures tie officials’ careers to climate goals At a glance: The State Council has released measures to evaluate progress on carbon reduction at the provincial level during the 15th Five-year Plan (2026-2030). A new accountability system ties the career prospects of top provincial party and state officials to carbon reduction. Key features include: The introduction of five control indicators, e.g., total carbon emissions, carbon emission intensity and total coal consumption, plus nine supporting indicators, including green transportation (see exhibit 1) Provinces that miss one control indicator or three supporting indicators in annual assessments must propose corrective actions within 30 days.

How Sapu Indexed 28 Million PubMed Abstracts to Accelerate Cancer Research with Qdrant

Sapu is an early-stage biopharmaceutical company developing treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. From its San Diego facility, the team is pioneering a nanomedicine pipeline that takes existing FDA-approved drugs and re-engineers them at the nanoscale, making them smaller, more effective, and less toxic. Building on already-approved compounds gives Sapu a stronger and faster path to therapeutic success in an industry where most candidates never reach patients. Behind the lab work sits an AI tooling suite that does the reading, searching, and synthesis that would otherwise take researchers thousands of hours. Sapu’s internal AI platform supports research paper authorship, references standard operating procedures, and lets the team query its document corpus with the precision biotech R&D requires. As the company grew, so did the volume of documents, the variety of use cases, and the demands placed on the underlying retrieval infrastructure.

Fighting Tool Sprawl: The Case for AI Tool Registries

As enterprise AI agent adoption scales, the absence of centralized, organization-level tool infrastructure is producing compounding costs. When adoption is built around optimizing for deployment speed, enterprises expose themselves to a combination of risks: duplicated engineering effort, security exposure, and operational opacity. Every enterprise needs its own shared tool registry, one that reflects its specific regulatory environment, security posture, and operational conventions. To be clear, this is not an argument for a public package manager, something like npm, PyPI, or Maven. The infrastructure each enterprise needs is internal; scoped to its own teams, its own data, its own policies, its own domain. Trying to expand the scope beyond the confines of individual organizations would be premature standardization in a fast-moving, nascent space. A shared enterprise tool registry is not an optimization or a nice-to-have. It is foundational infrastructure as agent deployments scale beyond early experiments. The case for it rests on two pillars: reducing coordination cost and enabling risk management, both for the humans building with agents and for the agents themselves. AI agents depend on tools that retrieve data, write records, trigger workflows, and call external APIs. According to McKinsey, in most large organizations, these tools are built by individual teams in an ad hoc fashion: undocumented, ungoverned, and invisible to the rest of the organization. This pattern i…

Measuring the Self-Reported Impact of Early-2026 AI on Technical Worker Productivity

Summary In February–April 2026, we ran a survey of 349 technical workers (including 87 software engineers, 71 researchers, 129 academics and PhD students, and 48 founders and managers) about their usage of AI tools. Compared to previous work, our survey is one of the more detailed surveys of technical workers’ self-reported gains from frontier AI tools. 1 We attempt to capture gains due to AI in terms of ‘value’ (how much more value are you creating with AI), rather than ‘speed’ (how long would it have taken you to do these tasks without AI). These can give different answers in principle, in particular if using AI changes the distribution of tasks you work on. For example, researchers could use AI to quickly build an interactive dashboard for their data, which would have taken significantly longer without AI but isn’t that important for their project. We provide more detail on the distinction between value and speed gains in our previous research . We think that the distinction between ‘value’ and ‘speed’ gains is important because value is closer to the idea that survey designers typically care about, whereas our sense is that it is common for respondents to think in terms of speed, and we expect that speed changes would typically overstate value changes. See methodological details here . Participants self-reported a median 1.4–2x change in the value in their work due to AI tools. The median self-reported speed change (which we expect to be higher than value change) is 3x.…

BalCapRL: A Balanced Framework for RL-Based MLLM Image Captioning

Image captioning is one of the most fundamental tasks in computer vision. Owing to its open-ended nature, it has received significant attention in the era of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). In pursuit of ever more detailed and accurate captions, recent work has increasingly turned to reinforcement learning (RL). However, existing captioning-RL methods and evaluation metrics often emphasize a narrow notion of caption quality, inducing trade-offs across core dimensions of captioning. For example, utility-oriented objectives can encourage noisy, hallucinated, or overlong captions that…

Kubernetes v1.36: Moving Volume Group Snapshots to GA

Volume group snapshots were introduced as an Alpha feature with the Kubernetes v1.27 release, moved to Beta in v1.32, and to a second Beta in v1.34. We are excited to announce that in the Kubernetes v1.36 release, support for volume group snapshots has reached General Availability (GA) . The support for volume group snapshots relies on a set of extension APIs for group snapshots . These APIs allow users to take crash-consistent snapshots for a set of volumes. Behind the scenes, Kubernetes uses a label selector to group multiple PersistentVolumeClaim objects for snapshotting. A key aim is to allow you to restore that set of snapshots to new volumes and recover your workload based on a crash-consistent recovery point. This feature is only supported for CSI volume drivers. An overview of volume group snapshots Some storage systems provide the ability to create a crash-consistent snapshot of multiple volumes. A group snapshot represents copies made from multiple volumes that are taken at the same point-in-time. A group snapshot can be used either to rehydrate new volumes (pre-populated with the snapshot data) or to restore existing volumes to a previous state (represented by the snapshots). Why add volume group snapshots to Kubernetes? The Kubernetes volume plugin system already provides a powerful abstraction that automates the provisioning, attaching, mounting, resizing, and snapshotting of block and file storage. Underpinning all these features is the Kubernetes goal of workl…

Adaptive Parallel Reasoning: The Next Paradigm in Efficient Inference Scaling

Overview of adaptive parallel reasoning. What if a reasoning model could decide for itself when to decompose and parallelize independent subtasks, how many concurrent threads to spawn, and how to coordinate them based on the problem at hand? We provide a detailed analysis of recent progress in the field of parallel reasoning, especially Adaptive Parallel Reasoning. Disclosure: this post is part landscape survey, part perspective on adaptive parallel reasoning. One of the authors (Tony Lian) co-led ThreadWeaver ( Lian et al., 2025 ), one of the methods discussed below. The authors aim to present each approach on its own terms. Motivation Recent progress in LLM reasoning capabilities has been largely driven by inference-time scaling, in addition to data and parameter scaling ( OpenAI et al., 2024 ; DeepSeek-AI et al., 2025 ). Models that explicitly output reasoning tokens (through intermediate steps, backtracking, and exploration) now dominate math, coding, and agentic benchmarks. These behaviors allow models to explore alternative hypotheses, correct earlier mistakes, and synthesize conclusions rather than committing to a single solution ( Wen et al., 2025 ). The problem is that sequential reasoning scales linearly with the amount of exploration. Scaling sequential reasoning tokens comes at a cost, as models risk exceeding effective context limits ( Hsieh et al., 2024 ). The accumulation of intermediate exploration paths makes it challenging for the model to disambiguate amon…

Review of the "Risks from automated R&D" section in the Anthropic Risk Report (February 2026)

We reviewed the “Risks from automated R&D” section of Anthropic’s February 2026 Risk Report , producing two corresponding review documents: our original review and our updated review . We recommend that readers refer to our original review, which represents our review of the report as originally received. 1 The following is the executive summary of our original review. The full documents are available as PDFs ( original , updated ). Executive summary This document is METR’s external review of the “Risks from automated R&D” section in the Anthropic Risk Report: February 2026 (henceforth ‘the report’), which makes the argument that catastrophic risk from Claude Opus 4.6 or a less capable Anthropic model automating R&D in any domain is very low. Anthropic shared additional non-public materials with us for our review, and we used some non-public information shared as part of a previous review . We further detail this process in an appendix. We lay out our findings in two sections: Synopsis of Anthropic’s case . Our assessment : We do not think the report adequately supports its conclusion. We note significant issues in a few key areas: Analytical rigor: We have a number of significant issues with the analytical rigor in the overall argument and interpretation of the results of the model use survey. We think that the cited results of the survey provide little evidence about the level of overall risk , due to issues including sample size, question granularity, survey framing, and…

Task Substitution and Uplift

Summary: We describe three different definitions of the productivity impact of AI (AKA uplift), and show there’s reason to expect: \[\text{uplift on old tasks} \leq \text{uplift in value} \leq \text{uplift on new tasks}\] Three Measures of Uplift One complication in measuring AI’s effect on productivity is that it has different effects on different tasks, and this causes people to change how they allocate their time between tasks. This makes it more difficult to talk about the effect of AI on overall productivity. We use “old tasks” to mean the set of tasks you’d do in a typical day before AI is available – your average workday in 2021, say. “New tasks” means the set of tasks you’d do in a typical day after AI is available. Not all new tasks necessarily use AI; they’re just the tasks you choose knowing AI is an option. We have found it important to distinguish between three measures of AI’s uplift: Uplift on old tasks: The factor by which pre-AI time exceeds post-AI time to complete the old tasks. Uplift on new tasks: The factor by which pre-AI time exceeds post-AI time to complete the new tasks. Uplift in value: The factor by which post-AI value exceeds pre-AI value, allowing for reshuffling of tasks between the pre-AI and post-AI cases. In some cases value has a natural definition; in others, it can be operationalized using related definitions discussed more in the accompanying note. This note discusses the distinction and its implications for interpreting AI productivity…

RVPO: Risk-Sensitive Alignment via Variance Regularization

Current critic-less RLHF methods aggregate multi-objective rewards via an arithmetic mean, leaving them vulnerable to constraint neglect: high-magnitude success in one objective can numerically offset critical failures in others (e.g., safety or formatting), masking low-performing “bottleneck” rewards vital for reliable multi-objective alignment. We propose Reward-Variance Policy Optimization (RVPO), a risk-sensitive framework that penalizes inter-reward variance during advantage aggregation, shifting the objective from “maximize sum” to “maximize consistency.” We show via Taylor expansion…

Large-Scale High-Quality 3D Gaussian Head Reconstruction from Multi-View Captures

We propose HeadsUp, a scalable feed-forward method for reconstructing high-quality 3D Gaussian heads from large-scale multi-camera setups. Our method employs an efficient encoder-decoder architecture that compresses input views into a compact latent representation. This latent representation is then decoded into a set of UV-parameterized 3D Gaussians anchored to a neutral head template. This UV representation decouples the number of 3D Gaussians from the number and resolution of input images, enabling training with many high-resolution input views. We train and evaluate our model on an…

How to Find the Agent Failures Your Evals Miss with Scott Clark - #767

In this episode, Scott Clark, co-founder and CEO of Distributional, joins us to explore how teams can reliably operate and improve complex LLM systems and agents in production. Scott introduces a Maslow’s hierarchy of observability: telemetry for logging, monitoring for known signals, and post-production or online analytics to surface unknown unknowns. We dig into examples of real-world failures Scott’s team has seen in production systems, such as “lazy” tool-use hallucinations that standard evals miss, and how mapping traces into vector fingerprints enables clustering and topic discovery to uncover emergent behaviors. Scott explains how analytics can feed the data flywheel by generating evals, guardrails, and training data, and why online, adaptive approaches are essential for non-stationary models. We also touch on practical how-to’s such as instrumentation with OpenTelemetry, the GenAI semantic conventions, and the role of dedicated analytics tools.

Kubernetes v1.36: More Drivers, New Features, and the Next Era of DRA

Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) has fundamentally changed how platform administrators handle hardware accelerators and specialized resources in Kubernetes. In the v1.36 release, DRA continues to mature, bringing a wave of feature graduations, critical usability improvements, and new capabilities that extend the flexibility of DRA to native resources like memory and CPU, and support for ResourceClaims in PodGroups. Driver availability continues to expand. Beyond specialized compute accelerators, the ecosystem includes support for networking and other hardware types, reflecting a move toward a more robust, hardware-agnostic infrastructure. Whether you are managing massive fleets of GPUs, need better handling of failures, or simply looking for better ways to define resource fallback options, the upgrades to DRA in 1.36 have something for you. Let's dive into the new features and graduations! Feature graduations The community has been hard at work stabilizing core DRA concepts. In Kubernetes 1.36, several highly anticipated features have graduated to Beta and Stable. Prioritized list (stable) Hardware heterogeneity is a reality in most clusters. With the Prioritized list feature, you can confidently define fallback preferences when requesting devices. Instead of hardcoding a request for a specific device model, you can specify an ordered list of preferences (e.g., "Give me an H100, but if none are available, fall back to an A100"). The scheduler will evaluate these requests in…

AI Is Changing What Customers Need From a Database. MongoDB 8.3 Is Built for It

Today, we announced at .local London that MongoDB 8.3 is built for the speed AI demands—and our customers can't afford to wait. The data layer has to move at AI speed The old contract between databases and the applications on top of them was simple: databases improve slowly, and architectures evolve around them. AI has changed that contract. The workloads our customers are shipping today—agents retrieving at sub-100ms, retry storms hitting in milliseconds, multi-region deployments that can't trade compliance for latency—were edge cases 18 months ago. Now they're the baseline. MongoDB 8.3, generally available today, is our fourth significant release in 19 months. These releases compound. Customers running on 8.0 have seen 36% faster reads and 59% higher throughput for updates. 8.3 adds another 35% to write throughput, 45% to reads, and 15% to ACID transactions over 8.0 — without changing a line of application code. Enterprises like Adobe, running the most demanding AI in production, have made the requirements clear: sub-100ms retrieval, sub-second context updates, zero downtime. That's what MongoDB Atlas is built for. That's the commitment: when the data platform keeps pace, our customers can focus on shipping. MongoDB.local London Core Blog 2026 - Image 1 media Run anywhere. Stay secure. Where you run your agents isn't just an infrastructure decision anymore. Now, it's a critical compliance and security decision as well. While most platforms force a trade-off between global…

China resumes fuel exports + US oil sanctions + Emission quotas for local cadres c.groth Thu, 05/07/2026 - 13:14 picture alliance / CFOTO | CFOTO Download (pdf - 546.11 KB) MERICS Briefs MERICS China Essentials May 07, 2026 10 min read China resumes fuel exports + US oil sanctions + Emission quotas for local cadres Top Story China resumes fuel exports as national supply worries ebb – and regional ones rise China is moving to prevent the worst for Asian economies by resuming exports of jet and motor fuels to some regional countries in May. Having suspended shipments from refineries shortly after the US and Israel attacked Iran at the end of February, China will allow 500,000 metric tons of fuel to be exported this month. This is still much lower than its pre-war average of more than double that amount, but a sign that Beijing’s persistent caution about its own energy supply is ebbing – and that its worries about compounding pressure on regional supply chains and markets are increasing. China is a major importer of oil and gas, but a major exporter of fuel, with its many refineries providing gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel to countries from nearby Vietnam to far away Australia. Asian economies were deeply disrupted by the energy shock triggered by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy artery between Iran and Oman, and were hit again when Beijing stopped shipments of its refined petroleum products. China’s partial reversal should help ease the fuel crunch…
