ChatGPT + Codex are a one-two punch for investment firms.
"Having the ability to connect your deal folder with all of the context, and then be able to ask ChatGPT and Codex real time questions has been really impactful to our workflows," – Jasmine Azizi (Advent).
Financial firms hold a tremendous amount of context. ChatGPT acts like a brain layer so teams can spend more time focusing on the next big bet.

Cloud Optimized OpenCV Library (COOL) delivers a high-performance build of OpenCV, enabling faster computation of core computer vision operations such as resize, adaptive gaussian, contour detection functions. This optimized edition is designed for accelerated computer vision workloads on AWS Graviton and ARM-based environments, helping developers achieve improved efficiency for AI, ML, and image processing applications. On this episode we welcome Frantz Lohier from AWS to show you the awesome performance benefits of COOL, at a price that any company can afford.
OpenCV is a 501(c)(3) registered non-profit in the United States. See how you can support open source CV & AI: http://opencv.org/support/

In this live session, we’ll cover how to transfer capability from a teacher model to a smaller student through distillation. We’ll work through supervised fine-tuning on teacher-generated data, then on-policy and online methods where the teacher scores the student live, then self-distillation where the model teaches itself. Each one runs in TRL.
What we’ll cover:
– What distillation is, and the four axes that organize it: signal, data source, timing, and teacher identity
– White-box vs black-box: distilling from open weights vs strings
– Off-policy distillation: generate from the teacher, then SFT on the outputs
– On-policy distillation: sample from the student, score with the teacher in the loop
– Distillation as reinforcement learning: the KD distance as a dense, token-level reward
– Self-distillation: the model as its own teacher, and when that beats a stronger one

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.

Can AI help us better understand ourselves? This lightning talk explores how open source AI, EEG brain-computer interfaces (BCI), biosensors, and creative coding transform brainwaves, meditation, and human emotions into interactive digital experiences.
Through projects including From Brainwaves to Blessings, AI Mandala, and Spirits of You, you’ll discover how open-source tools process EEG signals, generate digital art, create 3D-printed artifacts, and reimagine cultural rituals with AI. The session also covers practical workflows for brainwave processing, generative visuals, real-time data visualization, and ethical AI design.
Whether you’re interested in AI, creative technology, digital art, or human-computer interaction, this talk demonstrates how transparent, open-source AI can deepen our understanding of attention, emotion, culture, and human connection.

Linus Tech Tips is back with Part 2 of their 2026 Linux Challenge so of course I had to react to it.
In this reaction video, I go through Linus’ latest Linux experiment and share my thoughts as someone who has been daily driving Linux for many years. We’ll talk about what went well, what didn’t, and some of the bigger takeaways for people who are curious about switching to Linux themselves.
