Our agent scientist, Agent S4, just got an open 27B model to beat GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 on OSWorld V2, with the model's weights left exactly as they were. With the interfaces S4 evolved, Qwen3.8-27B completes 21.3% of the 108 tasks, the highest binary success of any open-source computer-use agent and 3.8x the same model with fixed interfaces. It costs $1.10 per task, against $25.50 for GPT-5.5 and $72.40 for Opus 4.8 💸 Full write-up: simular.ai/articles/agent-s4…

Today, we’re introducing Ideogram's first vector model. Generate clean, editable SVGs with smooth gradients and sharp typography from a text prompt, or turn any image into a detailed, scalable vector. Live in Ideogram and the API: ideogram.ai/models/vector

AI slop isn't just tacky and uninspired. It can get you sued. Generating fake AI faces that resemble real people, or using someone's likeness without permission, is creating new legal and reputational risks for brands. So we built @mirrormirror_ai as part of a16z @speedrun, a marketplace where brands can digitally book real models and creators to generate AI content using their likeness, with their permission. Brands browse and book identity-verified talent, agree on usage rights, and generate content within those terms. Every approved image comes with a signed license and embedded provenance. We're seeing brands produce lookbooks and campaign visuals up to 10x faster, with up to 90% cost savings. Meanwhile, models and creators can earn additional income from their digital likeness without having to show up for another shoot. Everyone is racing to make AI generation faster, cheaper, and more realistic. But there's still a huge missing piece: how do you license the rights to the people appearing in AI-generated content at scale? That's why I'm excited about what we're building. Not just another AI generator, but the licensing and rights infrastructure for AI-generated content. mirrormirrorai.com/
