Alibaba’s Page Agent runs as client-side JavaScript inside the webpage. It reads the live DOM as text, then clicks and types from natural-language commands. No screenshots, no multimodal model, and no backend rewrite are required.

In this tutorial, we build a RAG-Anything workflow to explore how multimodal retrieval works across text, tables, equations, and images. We prepare a Colab environment, enter our OpenAI API key at runtime, and generate a synthetic report with a chart and PDF. We convert that content into RAG-Anything’s direct content_list format and insert it into the retrieval system. We then configure OpenAI chat, vision, and embedding functions and test naive, local, global, and hybrid modes.

Interfaze open-sourced diffusion-gemma-asr-small, a multilingual ASR model that transcribes via diffusion, not autoregression. It adds audio to Google’s frozen DiffusionGemma using a ~42M-parameter adapter. One adapter covers six languages, with transcription cost set by denoising steps, not transcript length.

Artificial intelligence may have captured the public imagination through chatbots and image generators, but some of its most consequential use cases are unfolding far from consumer-facing tools. In industries where physical infrastructure, operational continuity, and safety are paramount, AI is becoming a core operating layer. With its sprawling industrial systems and constant stream of operational…
Frameworks like Lean Six Sigma and business process management (BPM) first gained traction because they promised clarity in the chaos—a structured way to bring order to messy, sprawling operations. Lean Six Sigma emphasized statistical rigor and quality control; BPM created end-to-end maps of how work should flow across departments. Both offered a repeatable way to…
Anthropic Claude Science now integrates the NVIDIA BioNeMo Agent Toolkit to accelerate computational life sciences research.

Optimising retail AI infrastructure drives the successful deployment of personalisation systems and real-time customer insight. Leaders are replacing static customer interaction patterns with data pipelines capable of modifying the user environment during a live session. Static layouts and broad segmentation rules fail to satisfy modern conversion targets. Deployments demonstrate that traditional demographic categorisation generates insufficient […]
