OpenAI is preparing to shut down Sora, the video generation app that drew widespread attention when it launched in late 2024. OpenAI announced the move in a social media post Tuesday just after a Wall Street Journal story broke the news. The company said it will have more to share soon on "timelines for the app and API and details on preserving your work." "To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you," OpenAI wrote. "What you made with Sora mattered, an

AI Analysis

First spotted on Social yesterday, Anthropic announced Claude Code and Claude Cowork can now directly control users' computer desktops—pointing, clicking, scrolling, and navigating applications to complete tasks. The system prioritizes API connectors when available but falls back to screen-level interaction when needed.

Meta AI’s New Hyperagents Don’t Just Solve Tasks—They Rewrite the Rules of How They Learn

By Asif Razzaq

74 score
AI Analysis

As first reported in Research on Sunday, Meta AI researchers introduced Hyperagents, systems capable of recursive self-improvement that go beyond fixed meta-level mechanisms. Building on the Darwin Gödel Machine, Hyperagents can rewrite their own learning rules rather than just improving at tasks.

Source details
The dream of recursive self-improvement in AI—where a system doesn’t just get better at a task, but gets better at learning—has long been the ‘holy grail’ of the field. While theoretical models like the Gödel Machine have existed for decades, they remained largely impractical in real-world settings. That changed with the Darwin Gödel Machine (DGM), which proved that open-ended self-improvement was achievable in coding. However, DGM faced a significant hurdle: it relied on a fixed,

Yann LeCun’s New LeWorldModel (LeWM) Research Targets JEPA Collapse in Pixel-Based Predictive World Modeling

By Asif Razzaq

73 score
AI Analysis

As first reported in Research on Sunday, Yann LeCun's team introduced LeWorldModel (LeWM), the first JEPA that trains stably end-to-end from raw pixels using only two losses, addressing the longstanding representation collapse problem. This advances LeCun's vision for world models as a path to more capable AI.

Source details
World Models (WMs) are a central framework for developing agents that reason and plan in a compact latent space. However, training these models directly from pixel data often leads to ‘representation collapse,’ where the model produces redundant embeddings to trivially satisfy prediction objectives. Current approaches attempt to prevent this by relying on complex heuristics: they utilize stop-gradient updates, exponential moving averages (EMA), and frozen pre-trained encoders. A team
