Seeking collaborators for scaling and independent evaluation of a new recurrent language model architecture (preprint + code) [R]
Researchers have introduced DABSN (Dynamic Adaptive Bias State Network), a novel recurrent language model architecture demonstrating promising results in reasoning, memory, and long-sequence tasks. The initial preprint and accompanying code—available in PyTorch, C++, and Triton—detail the architecture’s behavior and performance across benchmarks like MQAR and A5/60. Early language modeling experiments with a 24M parameter model have yielded unexpectedly strong results, prompting a second paper focused on scaling and long-context behavior. Collaboration is sought for independent reproduction, evaluation design, and access to larger GPU resources.

Agents think in milliseconds, legacy infrastructure doesn't. LinkedIn, Walmart and Zendesk shared how they closed the gap at VB Transform 2026
Agents operate at lightning speed, but legacy infrastructure often lags behind. A key takeaway from VB Transform 2026 was clear: the real bottleneck in AI agent deployment isn't the models themselves, but rather the underlying infrastructure. LinkedIn, Walmart, and Zendesk shared their experiences navigating this challenge, highlighting the need for a shift from human-centric systems to those optimized for agentic workflows. Discover how these leaders are building for model and context independence to unlock greater productivity and innovation.

Context Engineering Isn’t Enough — A Loop Engineering Experiment With No LLM Inside the Loop
The conversation around loop engineering often centers on Large Language Models (LLMs), but can the architecture itself drive improved performance? This article presents a novel experiment, rigorously testing a deterministic, zero-dependency Python benchmark to isolate failures—without an LLM. Results across 300 random seeds demonstrate that goal-directed controllers consistently outperform linear pipelines in completing independent branches. Explore the architecture, benchmark, and debugging process, revealing that failure isolation is, in fact, a measurable property of control flow.
You can build your AI's memory just by talking. Here's the catch. #AI #aiagents #AImemory
Unlock your AI agent's potential with a surprisingly simple approach: conversational memory. You can build it just by talking. The catch? Scaling this memory effectively reveals underlying architectural complexities that can slow development. Prioritizing a robust context store, as explored in our article "Comprehension at AI Speed," is crucial for maintaining agility and preventing hidden bottlenecks. #AI #aiagents #AImemory
