The end of 'shadow AI' at enterprises? Kilo launches KiloClaw for Organizations to enable secure AI agents at scale

As generative AI matures from a novelty into a workplace staple, a new friction point has emerged: the "shadow AI" or "Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI)" crisis. Much like the unsanctioned use of personal devices in years past, developers and knowledge workers are increasingly deploying autonomous agents on personal infrastructure to manage their professional workflows. "Our journey with Kilo Claw has been to make it easier and easier and more accessible to folks," says Kilo co-founder Scott Breitenother. Today, the company dedicated to providing a portable, multi-model, cloud-based AI coding environment is moving to formalize this "shadow AI" layer: it's launching KiloClaw for Organizations and KiloClaw Chat, a suite of tools designed to provide enterprise-grade governance over personal AI agents. The announcement comes at a period of high velocity for the company. Since making its securely hosted, one-click OpenClaw product for individuals, KiloClaw, generally available last month, more than

Meta's new structured prompting technique makes LLMs significantly better at code review — boosting accuracy to 93% in some cases

Meta's new structured prompting technique makes LLMs significantly better at code review — boosting accuracy to 93% in some cases

Deploying AI agents for repository-scale tasks like bug detection, patch verification, and code review requires overcoming significant technical hurdles. One major bottleneck: the need to set up dynamic execution sandboxes for every repository, which are expensive and computationally heavy.  Using large language model (LLM) reasoning instead of executing the code is rising in popularity to bypass this overhead, yet it frequently leads to unsupported guesses and hallucinations.  To improve execution-free reasoning, researchers at Meta introduce "semi-formal reasoning," a structured prompting technique. This method requires the AI agent to fill out a logical certificate by explicitly stating premises, tracing concrete execution paths, and deriving formal conclusions before providing an answer.  The structured format forces the agent to systematically gather evidence and follow function calls before drawing conclusions. This increases the accuracy of LLMs in coding tasks and significantly

Nvidia-backed ThinkLabs AI raises $28 million to tackle a growing power grid crunch

ThinkLabs AI, a startup building artificial intelligence models that simulate the behavior of the electric grid, announced today that it has closed a $28 million Series A financing round led by Energy Impact Partners (EIP), one of the largest energy transition investment firms in the world. Nvidia’s venture capital arm NVentures and Edison International, the parent company of Southern California Edison, also participated in the round. The funding marks a significant escalation in the race to apply AI not just to software and content generation, but to the physical infrastructure that powers modern life. While most AI investment headlines have centered on large language models and generative tools, ThinkLabs is pursuing a different and arguably more consequential application: using physics-informed AI to model the behavior of electrical grids in real time, compressing engineering studies that once took weeks or months into minutes. "We are dead focused on the grid," ThinkLabs CEO Josh W

Known Intents, New Combinations: Clause-Factorized Decoding for Compositional Multi-Intent Detection

Known Intents, New Combinations: Clause-Factorized Decoding for Compositional Multi-Intent Detection

arXiv:2603.28929v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-intent detection papers usually ask whether a model can recover multiple intents from one utterance. We ask a harder and, for deployment, more useful question: can it recover new combinations of familiar intents? Existing benchmarks only weakly test this, because train and test often share the same broad co-occurrence patterns. We introduce CoMIX-Shift, a controlled benchmark built to stress compositional generalization in multi-intent detection through held-out intent pairs, discourse-pattern shift, longer and noisier wrappers, held-out clause templates, and zero-shot triples. We also present ClauseCompose, a lightweight decoder trained only on singleton intents, and compare it to whole-utterance baselines including a fine-tuned tiny BERT model. Across three random seeds, ClauseCompose reaches 95.7 exact match on unseen intent pairs, 93.9 on discourse-shifted pairs, 62.5 on longer/noisier pairs, 49.8 on held-out templates, and 91.

Midjourney engineer debuts new vibe coded, open source standard Pretext to revolutionize web design

Midjourney engineer debuts new vibe coded, open source standard Pretext to revolutionize web design

For three decades, the web has existed in a state of architectural denial. It is a platform originally conceived to share static physics papers, yet it is now tasked with rendering the most complex, interactive, and generative interfaces humanity has ever conceived. At the heart of this tension lies a single, invisible, and prohibitively expensive operation known as "layout reflow." Whenever a developer needs to know the height of a paragraph or the position of a line to build a modern interface, they must ask the browser’s Document Object Model (DOM), the standard by which developers can create and modify webpages. In response, the browser often has to recalculate the geometry of the entire page — a process akin to a city being forced to redraw its entire map every time a resident opens their front door. Last Friday, March 27, 2026, Cheng Lou — a prominent software engineer whose work on React, ReScript, and Midjourney has defined much of the modern frontend landscape — announced on

Sandflare – I built a sandbox that launches AI agent VMs in ~300ms

Sandflare – I built a sandbox that launches AI agent VMs in ~300ms

I've been building Sandflare for the past few months — it launches Firecracker microVMs for AI agents in ~300ms cold start. The idea came from running LLM-generated code in production. Docker felt too risky (shared kernel), full VMs too slow (5–10s). Firecracker hits the middle: real VM isolation, fast boot. I also added managed Postgres because almost every agent I built needed persistent state. One call wires a database into a sandbox. There are great tools in this space already (E2B, Modal, Daytona) — I wanted something with batteries-included Postgres, and simpler pricing What I'm trying to figure out: how do I get cold start below 100ms? Currently the bottleneck is the Firecracker API + network setup. Would love to hear from anyone who's pushed Firecracker further. https://sandflare.io Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47583255 Points: 2 # Comments: 3

Softr launches AI-native platform to help nontechnical teams build business apps without code

Softr, the Berlin-based no-code platform used by more than one million builders and 7,000 organizations including Netflix, Google, and Stripe, today launched what it calls an AI-native platform — a bet that the explosive growth of AI-powered app creation tools has produced a market full of impressive demos but very little production-ready business software. The company's new AI Co-Builder lets non-technical users describe in plain language the software they need, and the platform generates a fully integrated system — database, user interface, permissions, and business logic included — connected and ready for real-world deployment immediately. The move marks a fundamental evolution for a company that spent five years building a no-code business before layering AI on top of what it describes as a proven infrastructure of constrained, pre-built building blocks. "Most AI app-builders stop at the shiny demo stage," Softr Co-Founder and CEO Mariam Hakobyan told VentureBeat in an exclusive in

[D] Got my first offer after months of searching — below posted range, contract-to-hire, and worried it may pause my search. Do I take it?

I could really use some outside perspective. I’m a senior ML/CV engineer in Canada with about 5–6 years across research and industry. Master’s in CS and a few publications. I left my previous remote startup role about five months ago. The role gradually changed, I burned out, and decided to step away. I took around two months to decompress and have been actively searching for the last three months. It’s been tough. A few interview loops and a couple of final rounds, but no offers until now. Last week I finished a four-round process with a small pre-seed AI startup in healthcare. The work is genuinely interesting and very aligned with my background. The team also seems strong. Here’s the complication. The role was posted with a salary range, but the verbal offer came in roughly 20% below the bottom of that range. On top of that, it’s structured as a 3-month contract-to-hire instead of full-time. Since I’m in Canada and they’re in the US, I would be working as a contractor. That mean
