More is different when AI agent populations work together, study suggests

New research published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that when artificial intelligence (AI) agents interact in groups, their number is not merely a technical detail. It is a decisive factor in what the group settles on: populations built from the same AI model and doing the same task can reach opposite …

GRPO Beyond English: A Large-Scale Study of GRPO in Non-English and Multilingual Settings

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR), often optimized with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), has become a central recipe for improving the reasoning capabilities of pretrained language models but current studies remain heavily English-centric. We conduct a large-scale empirical study of multilingual and non-English GRPO across a wide range of base models, training languages, and …

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore payments is now generally available: Enabling agents to transact safely and autonomously at scale

Agents have evolved from simple chat applications to autonomous, long-running systems that dynamically discover and compose dozens of tools per task without human oversight. On the other side, service and content providers are moving from human-centric subscription-based, one-size-fits-all pricing to pay-per-use, per-execution models where costs are often a few cents. Today, agents are doing a …

Building cost-effective, high-throughput gen AI workflows in Google Dataflow

Real-time streaming pipelines are the operational backbone of modern enterprises, continuously processing everything from customer support interactions to transaction logs. Traditionally, streaming DAGs are static; once deployed, their processing logic and execution paths are fixed. However, by integrating generative AI agents, we can move beyond static logic to adaptive execution. This allows streaming workflows to …
