OpenAI has released Symphony, an open-source specification for turning issue trackers such as Linear into control planes for Codex coding agents. Instead of asking an AI tool for help with one coding problem at a time, Symphony is designed to let agents pick up work from an issue tracker, run in separate workspaces, monitor CI,

Xiaomi has released and open-sourced MiMo-V2.5 and MiMo-V2.5-Pro under the MIT License, giving developers another potentially lower-cost option for building AI agents that can run longer tasks such as coding and workflow automation. Both models support a 1-million-token context window, the company said. MiMo-V2.5-Pro is designed for complex agent and coding tasks, while MiMo-V2.5 is

GitHub is moving its Copilot coding assistant to a usage-based billing model, replacing fixed subscription pricing with consumption-based charges as demand for AI-driven development workloads increases. The change, announced in a company blog, will take effect on June 1 and will apply to Copilot Pro, Pro+, Business, and Enterprise plans. Under the new model, usage

The threat actor seeding the Open VSX code marketplace with fraudulent extensions that download the GlassWorm malware has uploaded 73 more impersonated links, as its attempt to infect software supply chains continues. Philipp Burckhardt, head of threat intelligence at Socket, which revealed the latest activity, called it a “significant escalation” in the gang’s activity, after

Microsoft Word was once the most commonly used software in the world. A .doc file was the lingua franca of the computing world, and “send me a Word doc” became part of the business lexicon. Word won the battle against WordPerfect, which was never quite able to make the transition to the world of Windows.  That

If Python developers have one consistent gripe about their beloved language, it tends to be this: Why is it so hard to take a Python program and deploy it as a standalone artifact, the way C, C++, Rust, Go, and even Java can be deployed? Are we stuck with requiring everyone to install the Python

When a company with US$15.5 million in annual revenue debuts on a stock exchange and its market capitalisation briefly hits US$10 billion, the obvious question is: what do investors know that the financials don’t show yet? In Lightelligence’s case, the answer is optical interconnect and the growing conviction that conventional copper wiring between AI chips

Kakao Mobility has set out plans to develop Level 4 autonomous driving technologies in-house as part of its physical AI strategy. Kim Jin-kyu, vice president and head of Kakao Mobility’s Physical AI division, presented the roadmap at the 2026 World IT Show conference at COEX in Seoul. His session focused on autonomous driving services built

When people talk about artificial intelligence, they usually focus on what it produces: Human-like text, stunning images, or eerily accurate recommendations. What rarely gets attention is how AI understands anything in the first place. That understanding begins with encoders. Think of an encoder as a translator that converts messy, real-world information into a structured language

To regulate software delivery costs and SDLC governance, IBM is launching Bob, an AI platform built to anchor enterprise engineering. Accumulated technical debt, hybrid cloud structures, and rigid compliance requirements clash with the raw speed of coding assistants. Without boundaries, they generate unmanaged liabilities rather than functional progress. Dinesh Nirmal, SVP at IBM Software, explained:
