Language Models Struggle with Esoteric Programming Languages
By

All models struggle in this benchmark because languages are: Brainfuck, Whitespace, Unlambda, Shakespeare. 😅
— Alex J. Champandard 🌱 (@alexjc) 19 mars 2026
If you actually pick a useful but still esoteric language like Joy, the frontier models do great (they *can* reason), but the open source ones struggle (they memorize). https://t.co/E5Mozy0yEBAll models struggle in this benchmark because languages are: Brainfuck, Whitespace, Unlambda, Shakespeare.

Stanford scientists discovered that smartphone patterns can predict mental health fluctuations in advance, even before a crisis hits. Their new open-source platform could lead to apps that give you real-time, personalized support exactly when you need it: hai.stanford.edu/news/what-y… [Translated from EN to English]

Axelera AI Community Showcases Innovative Offline-First Smart Space Applications
By
–
We asked the Axelera AI community to embed intelligence into the places they live, work, and play. They came back with gesture-controlled smart homes that feel like something out of Iron Man. Privacy-first activity sensors running 24/7 with zero video leaving the device. Security systems that catch intruders crawling under blankets. On-device physiotherapy assistants. AI-powered book cataloguers for libraries. Healthcare robots with clinical partners already lined up. Amazing AI applications, each offering different takes on what "smarter spaces" means. All running on Metis hardware with the Voyager SDK, all offline-first, and all built and documented openly by our awesome community members. We've picked our winners. Go see who made the podium and check out what every team built, and join us in congratulating everyone who entered: eu1.hubs.ly/H0sPFPZ0 And if this has you thinking about what you'd build with Metis, our Demo Jam is live right now. Share something cool you've made, and you could win a 4 Quad-Core Metis PCIe Card! Details on the community.

ETH Zurich’s Orca: Open-Source Robotic Hand Under $2,000

Researchers at ETH Zurich created the Orca hand, fully open-sourced with artificial bones and tendons.
For context, advanced robotic hands cost over $100,000 and require constant maintenance…
Orca… pic.twitter.com/LEUkM8hVDyThis robotic hand can be 3D printed by anyone and assembled in under 8 hours. Researchers at ETH Zurich created the Orca hand, fully open-sourced with artificial bones and tendons. For context, advanced robotic hands cost over $100,000 and require constant maintenance… Orca costs under $2,000. 50x less (!) A self-calibration system maps every motor to every joint, eliminating the manual tuning that tendon-driven hands usually need. Each fingertip has built-in tactile sensors covered by silicone skin. The hand can actually feel when it touches something, giving it feedback to grip objects without crushing them or letting them slip. It can hold over 20 lbs, learn tasks by watching human demonstrations, and transfer skills trained in simulation directly to the real world. The team proved its durability by having it pick up and place a cube over 2,000 times across 7 hours with no human intervention. The full design files and source code are open source, so any robotics lab in the world can start building one today.

Inference Engines have different optimizations for different hardware Most optimized for DGX Spark: TensorRT-LLM Inference Engines MATTER and they are NOT EQUAL (e.g. blogpost below) Opensource models ARE NOT just a memory size issue BTW
