Building a context-aware AI assistant on AgentCore and OpenClaw

Off-the-shelf AI assistants answer individual questions well, but they fall short on a different axis: continuity. Ask a stateless assistant about your garden today and it has no idea that you mentioned your fast-draining raised beds three weeks ago, that you only use organic fertilizer, or that your petunias were struggling through a heat wave. …

From 3D layout to compositing: new LTX VFX tools

During VFX Week last week, we released seven open-weight capabilities for LTX-2.5, covering high-res editing, restoration, HDR, CG-guided generation and compositing: Native Resolution: Run AI edits on 4K and 8K plates and beyond without downscaling. Overlapping tiles keep fine detail, on a single GPU. Refine: Refine generates the fine detail a standard resize leaves soft, …

Introducing GLM 5.3 on Amazon Bedrock

Coding and agentic workloads are asking more of AI models than ever: refactor a repository spanning hundreds of files, sustain a multi-hour agentic workflow without losing context, and reason through complex systems problems with tool use at every step. Meeting those demands with open-weight models has historically meant provisioning and operating your own inference infrastructure. …

Minimax H3 + RefMod = consistent location trick

Hey, I found a pretty cool way to keep locations consistent across generations. I took 20 photos of my “office” where I work, making sure each photo included a bit of the previous one so everything connected. I turned them into a refmod, although it probably doesn’t even need to be one. It’s basically a …
