Training and benchmarking a computer-use agent needs four things — agents, environments, traces, and a framework to evaluate and train them — and all four ship in incompatible formats today. CUA-Lite, from a UC Berkeley led team, puts them behind one action space and one data schema, and replaces OSWorld's per-task virtual machine with a plain Docker con

We look at NVIDIA Personal AI Router (PAIR), an open source virtual inference router that spreads local AI requests across the machines already on a home network. We cover how PAIR proxies existing Ollama and LM Studio endpoints so agent harnesses need no changes, and how its scheduler filters nodes on readiness, engine state, exact model presence, job load,

AI research agents can propose far more experiments than they can afford to run. Meta FAIR, Oxford and UCL introduce AI Research Preference Models — frozen LLM judges that rank 15 unexecuted candidates and execute only one. On AIRS-Bench, the average normalized score rises from 0.684 to 0.729, and the baseline's 24-hour result arrives in roughly 15 hours.
