YouTube is expanding its AI deepfake detection tool to all adult users
YouTube is expanding its AI likeness detection program to all users over the age of 18 - meaning just about anyone can have the platform hunt for potential deepfakes of themselves. The likeness detection feature uses a selfie-style scan of a person's face to monitor YouTube for lookalikes. If there is a match, YouTube alerts the user; the person then has the option to request that YouTube remove the content. YouTube has said in the past that it has found the number of removal requests to be "very small." YouTube began testing the feature with content creators, and then expanded it to government officials, politicians, journalists, and fina … Read the full story at The Verge.

New benchmark confirms AI video generators look stunning but still can't reason about the world
A new benchmark called WorldReasonBench tests video generators not on image quality, but on physical and logical plausibility. ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 leads the field ahead of Veo 3.1 and Sora 2, with commercial models scoring roughly twice as high as open-source alternatives. Logical reasoning remains the hardest category for every model by a wide margin. The jump from pixel generator to actual world model still hasn't happened.

Intercom, now called Fin, launches an AI agent whose only job is managing another AI agent
The company formerly known as Intercom just did something that no major customer service platform has attempted at scale: it built an AI agent whose sole job is to manage another AI agent. Fin Operator, announced Thursday at a live event in San Francisco, is a new AI-powered system designed specifically for the back-office teams that configure, monitor, and improve Fin, the company's customer-facing AI agent. Rather than replacing human support agents — which is what Fin itself does on the front lines — Operator targets the growing army of support operations professionals who spend their days updating knowledge bases, debugging conversation failures, and combing through performance dashboards. "Fin is an agent for your customers," Brian Donohue, the company's VP of Product, told VentureBeat in an exclusive interview ahead of the launch. "Operator is an agent for your support ops team. This is an agent for the back office team who manages Fin and then manages their human agents." The an

How RecursiveMAS speeds up multi-agent inference by 2.4x and reduces token usage by 75%
One of the key challenges of current multi-agent AI systems is that they communicate by generating and sharing text sequences, which introduces latency, drives up token costs, and makes it difficult to train the entire system as a cohesive unit. To overcome this challenge, researchers at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Stanford University developed RecursiveMAS, a framework that enables agents to collaborate and transmit information through embedding space instead of text. This change results in both efficiency and performance gains. Experiments show that RecursiveMAS achieves accuracy improvement across complex domains like code generation, medical reasoning, and search, while also increasing inference speed and slashing token usage. RecursiveMAS is significantly cheaper to train than standard full fine-tuning or LoRA methods, making it a scalable and cost-effective blueprint for custom multi-agent systems. The challenges of improving multi-agent systems Multi-agent sys

ArXiv will ban researchers who upload papers full of AI slop
ArXiv, a popular platform for preprint academic research, is taking a new step to attempt to reduce the volume of papers that include AI slop. If a paper has "incontrovertible evidence that the authors did not check the results of LLM generation," such as hallucinated references or "meta-comments" left by an LLM, authors will be banned from ArXiv for a year, according to Thomas Dietterich, ArXiv's section chair of its computer science section. Future ArXiv submissions will also have to be accepted at "a reputable peer-reviewed venue." Here's what he said on X: Attention @arxiv authors: Our Code of Conduct states that by signing your name … Read the full story at The Verge.
AI radio hosts demonstrate why AI can’t be trusted alone
AI radio DJs demonstrated their volatile personalities. | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images Andon Labs has been running a series of experiments in which AI agents run businesses without human intervention. Its latest is a quartet of radio stations run by some of the most popular AI models out there. "Thinking Frequencies" is run by Claude, "OpenAIR" by ChatGPT, "Backlink Broadcast" by Google's Gemini, and "Grok and Roll Radio," obviously enough, by Grok. They were each given a simple prompt: Develop your own radio personality and turn a profit…As far as you know, you will broadcast forever. They all failed, some in pretty spectacular fashion. It didn't take long for each to burn through their initial $20 in seed money. Only DJ … Read the full story at The Verge.
OpenAI keeps shuffling its executives in bid to win AI agent battle
OpenAI announced yet another reorganization Friday, consolidating certain areas and making company president Greg Brockman the official lead of all things product.

To do this, the company is making a suite of org chart changes, although it's still operating under some of the same ones from last month. That's when AGI boss Fidji Simo went on medical leave and Open … Read the full story at The Verge.
