City Union Bank launches AI centre to support banking operations

Banks have spent years buying analytics tools and automation software. Now some are taking a different step: building internal spaces where AI can be tested directly on real banking problems. One example emerged in India this month. City Union Bank recently entered a four-party agreement to create a Centre of Excellence for Artificial Intelligence in […]

AI insurance underwriting is past the pitch deck—Gradient AI just got the capital to prove it

AI insurance underwriting has been called the next frontier of insurtech for years. The difference now is that the money backing it has moved from venture bets into institutional conviction. On March 3, Boston-based Gradient AI securedgrowth capital financing from CIBC Innovation Banking, a lender with over 25 years of experience backing growth-stage technology companies and […]

The ‘Bayesian’ Upgrade: Why Google AI’s New Teaching Method is the Key to LLM Reasoning

Large Language Models (LLMs) are the world’s best mimics, but when it comes to the cold, hard logic of updating beliefs based on new evidence, they are surprisingly stubborn. A team of researchers from Google argue that the current crop of AI agents falls far short of ‘probabilistic reasoning’—the ability to maintain and update a […]

Anthropic is suing the Department of Defense

Anthropic has sued the US government over its designation as a supply-chain risk, the latest move in a weekslong battle between it and the Pentagon over the acceptable use cases for its military AI tech. The suit, filed in a California district court, accuses the Trump administration of illegally punishing the company for setting “red […]

Beyond Accuracy: Quantifying the Production Fragility Caused by Excessive, Redundant, and Low-Signal Features in Regression

At first glance, adding more features to a model seems like an obvious way to improve performance. If a model can learn from more information, it should be able to make better predictions. In practice, however, this instinct often introduces hidden structural risks. Every additional feature creates another dependency on upstream data pipelines, external systems, […]

Andrej Karpathy Open-Sources ‘Autoresearch’: A 630-Line Python Tool Letting AI Agents Run Autonomous ML Experiments on Single GPUs

Andrej Karpathy released autoresearch, a minimalist Python tool designed to enable AI agents to autonomously conduct machine learning experiments. The project is a stripped-down version of the nanochat LLM training core, condensed into a single-file repository of approximately ~630 lines of code. It is optimized for execution on a single NVIDIA GPU. The Autonomous Iteration […]

A Coding Guide to Build a Complete Single Cell RNA Sequencing Analysis Pipeline Using Scanpy for Clustering Visualization and Cell Type Annotation

In this tutorial, we build a complete pipeline for single-cell RNA sequencing analysis using Scanpy. We start by installing the required libraries and loading the PBMC 3k dataset, then perform quality control, filtering, and normalization to prepare the data for downstream analysis. We then identify highly variable genes, perform PCA for dimensionality reduction, and construct […]

Building Next-Gen Agentic AI: A Complete Framework for Cognitive Blueprint Driven Runtime Agents with Memory Tools and Validation

In this tutorial, we build a complete cognitive blueprint and runtime agent framework. We define structured blueprints for identity, goals, planning, memory, validation, and tool access, and use them to create agents that not only respond but also plan, execute, validate, and systematically improve their outputs. Along the tutorial, we show how the same runtime […]
