AI Models Have Preferred Names: Marcus Chen, Aldric, Kira, Mara Vance
By

All of the AI models have preferred names. If you asked Claude 4.5 for a software developer, you are going to get Marcus Chen. Wizards are mostly named Aldric. Space pilots are Kira from Claude, Mara Vance from GPT-5.2. I guess LinkedIn Bros are Kai now. https://

LatentUM: AI Model Processes Images Text Actions Simultaneously
By
–
What if an AI could think in pictures and words simultaneously, without the usual translation lag? Researchers from Shanghai Jiao Tong U, Tsinghua U, and UCSD present LatentUM. They built a single model that processes images, text, and actions all in one shared "semantic

OpenHarness: Open-Source Agent Harness for AI Systems
By
–
Lightweight agent harness for building AI agents! OpenHarness is an open-source agent harness that gives LLMs tools, memory, permissions, and coordination. Here's the concept. The model provides intelligence. But to be a working agent, it needs tools to interact with the world,

Claude Code Reverse-Engineered: Only 1.6% Is Actually AI Model
By
–
Researchers reverse-engineered Claude Code. Only 1.6% is actually AI. The other 98.4% is infrastructure around the model. Permission gates, tool routing, context compaction, session recovery. The model just reasons. Everything else runs the show. The core loop is a plain

Engineering Ethics: When Not to Build with LLMs
By
–
We’re entering a phase where “can we build it?” matters less than “should we build it this way?” Energy, cost, and latency are becoming very important societal decisions. LLMs are powerful, but they’re not always the right abstraction. Good (AI) engineering is knowing when not
