LangChain 1.1 Adds Programmatic Model Capabilities Access
By
–
LangChain 1.1 You can now programmatically access model capabilities and supported features through model.profile. This powers some new features in middleware. One example: SummarizationMiddleware can now dynamically trigger based on the model's available context.

PyTorch Built-in Kernels Outperform Custom Function Series
By
–
For writing your own kernels, sure, but a PyTorch built-in is almost always going to be faster than an implementation consisting of a series of simpler PyTorch functions.

OpenAI Positions Codex as AI Coding Partner Not Operating System
By
–
OpenAI is very deliberate about how they talk about Codex. It's not positioned as an operating system. It's heavily positioned as a teammate. Their site says: "Your new coding partner", "accelerates your team" Their job postings say: "we're building an AI software engineer –

General Purpose Agents: Achieving More with Fewer Tools
By
–
General purpose agents like Claude Code and Manus use remarkably few tools. How? By giving agents access to a computer. With bash and filesystem tools, agents can perform actions without needing specialized bound tools for every task. Skills also offer two key advantages over

LLMs Recognizing Functions Across Programming Libraries
By
–
I've had medium success asking LLMs if a thing exists, it works out of the box for some of the more well-known things (e.g. both GPT 5.1 and Gemini 3 know about this function if you describe the tensor transformation in words). For more esoteric or new libraries (e.g. uv being a

PyTorch Built-in Functions Outperform Custom Tensor Rearrangement Code
By
–
Always a slightly mixed feeling to write pretty good first-principles code to do some tensor rearrangement, only to find that PyTorch has a built in function that does it faster. I had made a point of at least skimming the docs of every torch and tensor function, but if you
