Enabling agent-first process redesign
Unlike static, rules-based systems, AI agents can learn, adapt, and optimize processes dynamically. As they interact with data, systems, people, and other agents in real time, AI agents can execute entire workflows autonomously. But unlocking their potential requires redesigning processes around agents rather than bolting them onto fragmented legacy workflows using traditional optimization methods. Companies…

AI-RAN is redefining enterprise edge intelligence and autonomy
Presented by Booz Allen AI-RAN, or artificial intelligence radio area networks, is a reimagining of what wireless infrastructure can do. Rather than treating the network as a passive conduit for data, AI-RAN turns it into an active computational layer. It's a sensor, a compute fabric, and a control plane for physical operations, all rolled into one. That shift has huge implications for industries from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and smart infrastructure. VentureBeat spoke with two leaders at the center of this transformation: Chris Christou, senior vice president at Booz Allen, and Shervin Gerami, managing director at Cerberus Operations Supply Chain Fund. “AI-RAN can bring the promise of extending 5G and eventually 6G networks into the enterprise,” Christou said. “Proving that a platform can host inference at the edge to enable new types of AI — in particular, physical AI and autonomy-type use cases for things like smart manufacturing and smart warehousing — can make o

Block introduces Managerbot, a proactive Square AI agent and the clearest proof point yet for Jack Dorsey’s AI bet
Block today announced Managerbot, a new AI agent embedded in the Square platform that proactively monitors a seller's business, identifies emerging problems, and proposes actionable solutions — without the seller ever having to ask a question. The product marks the most tangible manifestation of CEO Jack Dorsey's controversial bet that artificial intelligence can fundamentally reshape how his company operates, builds products, and serves the millions of small businesses that depend on Square to run day-to-day commerce. In an exclusive interview with VentureBeat, Willem Avé, Block's head of product at Square, described Managerbot as a decisive break from the company's earlier Square AI assistant, which functioned as a reactive chatbot that answered seller questions about sales, employees, and business performance. "The big shift from Square AI to Managerbot is really from reactive to proactive," Avé said. "What that means is the primary interface is not a question box. You assign tasks

Show HN: Letting an LLM write robot programs
Try the demo here: https://llm-trajectory.boesch.dev/ This is a write-up of a system I designed at a previous job. It's a natural language interface for industrial robots. The demo runs MuJoCo in the browser via WASM. The demo uses a free-tier LLM API with rate limiting, so it might be slow or unavailable under load, but feel free to check out the code and hook up your own inference service: https://github.com/Encrux/llm_trajectory Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47674502 Points: 2 # Comments: 0

Intel will help build Elon Musk’s Terafab AI chip factory
Elon Musk's Terafab AI chip project in Austin, Texas, is gaining a crucial new partner: Intel. On Tuesday, the American chipmaker announced it was signing on to help design and build the sprawling facility, which would supply AI chips to Musk's two companies, SpaceX (newly merged with xAI) and Tesla. Musk needs AI chips to power his plans to build a "robot army" that includes self-driving cars and humanoid robots, as well as for the data centers he plans on launching into space. SpaceX plans on making its initial public offering later this year. "Terafab will close the gap between today's chip production and the future's demand - a future … Read the full story at The Verge.

As models converge, the enterprise edge in AI shifts to governed data and the platforms that control it
Presented by Box As frontier models converge, the advantage in enterprise AI is moving away from the model and toward the data it can safely access. For most enterprises, that advantage lives in unstructured data: the contracts, case files, product specifications, and internal knowledge. For enterprise leaders, the question is no longer which model to use, but which platform governs the content those models are allowed to reason over. "It's not what the model does anymore, it's the enterprise's own unstructured data – their content, how it's organized, how it's governed, and how it's made accessible to the AI." says Yash Bhavnani, head of AI at Box. "The organizations that will lead in AI are the ones that built the governance infrastructure to make any model trustworthy, with the right permissions in place, the right content accessible, and a clear audit trail for every action taken," says Ben Kus, CTO of Box. Enterprise AI must be grounded in secure systems of record As the advant
