The hardest part of building against a new platform is teaching your tools about it. Your coding agent doesn’t know the SDK’s conventions. Your IDE doesn’t know the CLI commands. Your terminal doesn’t know the auth pattern. Every gap is a context switch, and every context switch is time spent away from the work. DataRobot...

- The dark data problem hiding inside your AI agents
OpenClaw recently crossed 250,000 GitHub stars in just 60 days, surpassing React’s decade-long record to become the most-starred software project in GitHub’s history. At GTC 2026 , in his keynote speech, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang called it “the operating system for personal AI” and said, “For the CEOs, the question is, what’s your OpenClaw strategy?” I was at NVIDIA’s Hack for Impact hackathon at GTC, building alongside engineers who were using NemoClaw, OpenClaw and Nemotron to tackle real-world problems. One team built a wildfire detection system ingesting live NASA satellite data; another analyzed crime patterns across police jurisdictions; a third forecasted anomalies in energy grids. Every project was impressive. But watching them, I kept thinking about what happens the day after the hackathon. Where does all the data go? Autonomous AI agents continuously produce outputs—reports, analyses, alerts, processed video, audio and images. They accumulate memory, conversation histories and

You can usually measure a society by the way it treats its most vulnerable populations, and technology often can help people live better, more autonomous lives. Apple firmly believes that, and this year’s raft of accessibility announcements introduced to mark Global Accessibility Awareness Day shine a light on that belief. The company has won a string of awards that recognize its work, including praise from the National Federation of the Blind, the American Foundation for the Blind, the Cerebral Palsy Foundation, and the National Association of the Deaf. These tools matter to everyone, of course; as we age and our faculties decline, the accessibility solutions Apple creates today promise better tomorrows. AI + Accessibility + Apple With WWDC just weeks away , Apple’s latest accessibility features promise powerful technologies for all. Most will arrive with the 27 series of Apple operating systems — and many of the most powerful tools lean deeply into AI and Apple Intelligence. “The acc

Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) and an industry standard from 2006, the Object Management Group’s Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) workflow automation looks set for a renaissance. Some 20 years on, BPMN is being used alongside agentic AI to deliver what the industry sees as adaptive process automation. This was a hot topic at the CamundaCon 2026 conference in Amsterdam. During his presentation, Forrester principal analyst Bernhard Schaffrik showed a five-step evolution from basic scripting for workflow to a fully autonomous organisation. “Autonomy is only possible if you directly relate [the workflow] to what’s going on in real time, and your approval process is ideally autonomous,” he said. Speaking to Computer Weekly about his experience of how workflow automation has evolved, James Fernandez, co-CEO of Fairlink , said: “I remember, and I was doing some stuff in logistics, which lends itself to process mapping.” But, he recalls, the workflow tools of the time were ba

Resolve AI , the production-operations startup backed by Greylock and Lightspeed Venture Partners , today announced a sweeping expansion of its platform that introduces always-on background agents, a redesigned investigation architecture, and a shared workspace where engineers and AI agents collaborate in real time on live incidents. The centerpiece of the release is a new multi-agent investigation system developed by Resolve AI's in-house research lab. Instead of deploying a single AI agent to diagnose a production failure — analogous to a lone engineer pulling an on-call shift — the platform now dispatches a coordinated team of specialized agents that pursue multiple hypotheses in parallel, independently verify each other's conclusions, and construct complete causal chains from root cause to symptom. The company says the architecture delivers more than a twofold improvement in root cause accuracy on its internal evaluation benchmarks compared to earlier versions of its platform. "Thi

- Your Claude API bill is higher than your revenue: Why simple Python tasks are blowing up AI costs
Your most-used artificial intelligence feature may be your least profitable corporate asset. That contradiction does not appear at launch. Early signals almost always point to operational success. Usage increases, user engagement climbs and internal product dashboards trend in the right direction. Your teams report efficiency gains, and executive leadership sees widespread adoption across the business. Then the cloud computing invoice arrives. What looked like a scalable feature begins to show a completely different economic reality. The cost required to operate the system grows directly with usage, and in some cases, it grows faster than the actual value it creates. Finance sees rapidly rising, unpredictable spend. Engineering sees strong adoption and feature validation. Both departments are correct, and that is the exact problem threatening enterprise margins today. Artificial intelligence does not scale like traditional software. It behaves more like labor. Every single interaction
