A new HTTP caching standard looks promising but might struggle to get adopted, a terrible space mirror idea is actually happening, cars will spy on us all, and picking a VPN for use with an IP that doesn’t change very often.

🤖 AI doesn’t need to be *smarter.*
It needs to know **you** better.
Brian Alvey, CTO of WordPress VIP, believes the next breakthrough in AI won’t be answering more questions—it’s understanding your context.
Instead of simply telling you the weather, imagine an AI that knows where you’re headed, predicts what you’ll need, and helps you make better decisions before you even ask.
🌤️ "It’s 80° here…"
❄️ "…but you’re driving into San Francisco, where it’s 25 degrees colder. Grab a jacket."
That’s the kind of AI people will actually pay for.
The future of enterprise AI isn’t just better models—it’s more personalized, context-aware experiences.
🎧 Watch the full conversation with Lauren Goerz and Brian Alvey on *The Dialogue Architects*.

The EuroCommons TechSprint in Paris brought together organizations working toward a stronger, more sovereign European digital ecosystem.
It was a pleasure to connect with inspiring partners and communities, including Caisse des DĂ©pĂ´ts, TOSIT, OW2, XWiki, and many others who share a joint vision:
reducing dependency on proprietary software and building trusted open source alternatives together.
In this video, hear from Hugues de Maussion, Aymeril Hoang, Gilles Viton, Simon Clavier, Florian Caringi, Pauline Bessoles, Rosanna Sibora and Wieland Lindenthal as they share why collaboration is essential to strengthening Europe’s digital sovereignty.
A special thank you to Dicle Naz Tohumcu for creating this video and to Christophe Bliard for helping make the EuroCommons TechSprint such a success.
EuroCommons is about more than technology. It’s about collaboration across organizations to create sustainable digital infrastructure that gives users control over their data, their tools, and their future. We’re excited to continue contributing to this growing ecosystem and helping build open, trusted digital infrastructure for Europe.
🎥 Watch Europe’s open source ecosystem come together.

Training Agents, Session 3: from a fine-tuned baseline to reinforcement learning with GRPO.
In this live session, we’ll move past imitation and start training on outcomes. We’ll take the model from the earlier sessions and run Group Relative Policy Optimization: sample multiple completions per prompt, score them with a reward function, and use the group’s relative scores as the training signal — no value model, no reward model, no critic to train. Everything runs in TRL.
What we’ll cover:
– Why GRPO after SFT, and what RL adds that imitation can’t
– How GRPO works: group sampling, relative advantages, and why that replaces a critic
– Writing verifiable reward functions for agent tasks
– Running TRL GRPO on Hugging Face Jobs
– Reading the training curves: reward, KL, and completion length
– Common failure modes: reward hacking, collapse, and length gaming
Repo: https://github.com/burtenshaw/training-agents
This is part of the Training Agents series: using coding agents to design, run, monitor, and review post-training experiments, while training models to become better agents.
