Nvidia's Switchyard router reshuffles AI models mid-task, cutting task costs to a third in its own tests

Enterprises face a persistent challenge: balancing the power of advanced AI agents with escalating costs. Traditionally, relying solely on frontier models or building custom routing logic proved inefficient. Nvidia proposes a solution with Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, a fast, specialized model, and NeMo Switchyard, an open-source routing library. This pairing delivers frontier-level performance while potentially cutting benchmark costs by a third.

New Fable5/Opus4.8 harness called "Schema" claims 99% on ARC-3 [R]

Introducing Schema, a new Fable5/Opus4.8 harness achieving impressive results on the ARC-AGI-3 benchmark. Schema attains 99% accuracy with Claude Opus 4.8 and 95.35% with GPT-5.6 Sol—all without modifying model weights. This innovative harness refines the interaction process, optimizing how observations inform models, predictions are tested, and plans are executed. A fixed fallback rule prioritizes Opus 4.8 and Sol, ensuring robust performance across all games, as noted by ARC Prize.
