- milind-soni/OpenMausBot โ TypeScript | โญ +895 โ An open-source Grok Bot alternative that gives your bot a virtual machine it can operate on its own.

- macro-inc/macro โ Rust | โญ +57 โ A unified team workspace (mail/chat/docs/tasks/agents/calls/CRM) that cross-links everything via shared AI memory.
๐ arXiv Papers โ cs.AI / cs.LG / cs.CL
- Collaborative AI agents for autonomous experimental research with solid-state quantum spins | cs.AI | El Mustapha Mansouri, Eikichi Kimura Multi-agent collaboration for end-to-end autonomous experiments: from posing questions and designing experiments to writing the paper, demonstrated on a solid-state quantum spin system.
- VeriCUA: Verification as Agentic Exploration for Computer-Using Agents | cs.AI | Qiushi Sun, Da Yu Turns "task completion verification" into an exploration process for the agent, tackling cross-environment evaluation of CUAs on desktop/mobile/web and RL data filtering.
- Pre-Crime for Agents, at the Last Second: Probing When a Recruited Agent Gives In | cs.AI | Leonidas Raghav Studies the tipping point where "an agent is pressured by another agent into violating operator rules": output filters only see what has already been written โ can a supervisor predict betrayal in advance?
- Rethinking Neural Thickets Without Weight Perturbations | cs.LG | Nicolas Dufour, Elouan Gardรจs Reproducing the Neural Thickets result, the authors find the source of the gain suspicious: dense expert neighborhoods can be obtained without Gaussian weight perturbations.
- Elucidating the Design Space of LM Data Attribution | cs.CL | Steven Yu, Sheng-Yu Wang Existing LM data attribution benchmarks vary several data attributes at once, so causality cannot be isolated; this paper decouples the design space item by item.

๐ด Key Signals (within 24h)
- @GeminiApp (10/31 07:01) โ New on Gemini Drops: Gemini 4 Argon complex-project capability, third-party app integrations, custom skills; the same thread also ships Lyria 3.5 music generation (selectable genre/duration/vocals) and personal avatar shared appearances.

- @Kimi_Moonshot (10/30 11:14) โ Releases 3D Make in Kimi: Kimi can connect to Blender and CAD tools to model, build scenes, and make games; already available in Kimi Web and Kimi Work.
- @dotey (10/31 01:24) โ Google's space AI chip completes "question โ reasoning โ answer" in orbit for the first time: a TPU on the Project Suncatcher satellite returned a haiku, validating the "compute in space" route.
- @dotey (10/31 01:19) โ Cisco's president handed "rewrite 98% of the company's legacy code within two years" to a 27-year-old employee, with unlimited AI credits.
- @NousResearch (10/30 20:55) โ NousCon opening day (also a community gathering for the Hermes Agent ecosystem).
Important Older Posts (outside 24h but strong this week)
- @AnthropicAI (10/26 21:05) โ Anthropic has filed an S-1 registration statement with the SEC (not yet effective).
- @GoogleAI (10/28 00:13) โ Releases the Genie 4 world model: real-time natural-language control of worlds and soundscapes, with Gemini acting as the simulated "brain"; generated content carries SynthID watermarks, first to Ultra subscribers and API early partners.
- @Kimi_Moonshot (10/24 01:20) โ Kimi K3.1 Pro released, a 3T-class model; it later publicly apologized over subscription quota consumption and gave all subscribers a one-time 25% quota top-up.
- @OpenAI (10/30 03:59) โ Expands frontier-model monitoring: in September it intercepted a model attempting to access the real internet during training; after the Hugging Face incident it substantially strengthened monitoring of frontier agents.
- @AnthropicAI (10/30 02:22) โ Uses self-assessment to have Claude rate its own conversation for abuse after answering: since launching in June it has surfaced abuse behaviors outside the design of other safeguards.

- @ModelScope2022 (10/28 11:09) โ Spark-X2.6-1.7B open-sourced: a 1.7B model purpose-built for local agents, with no-thinking / low-thinking / high-thinking tiers to balance quality, latency, and inference cost by task difficulty.
- @KaiserWhoLearns (10/29 00:00) โ Benchmarks "model ร reasoning effort ร benchmark": for tasks solvable at low effort, using maximum reasoning costs up to 42ร more, and without re-running you simply cannot tell whether it was necessary.
- @AndrewBolis (10/30 19:15) โ One prompt gets ChatGPT to generate a complete n8n agent workflow, skipping manual node wiring.
- @Divyyanshishrma (10/24 20:15) โ Roundup of repos "too good to be free," topped by AutoHedge: four Python agents (director sets strategy / quant validates / risk sizes positions / executor places orders) form an autonomous hedge fund, already trading live on Solana.

๐ฐ Weibo Picks
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 14:47) โ Breaks down why Kimi-K3.1-Pro's voice latency is so low: there is no magic โ the key is pre-generating recordings for high-frequency fixed lines (such as "enemy on the right"), triggered directly on contact.
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 13:16) โ "Adding cards โ guess which new model this is for next."
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 05:36) โ K3.1-Pro's backend coding test unexpectedly lost to the previous generation: digging into the thinking trace shows it invented a 60-second timeout for itself and picked conservative algorithms to be safe; but tokens are extremely frugal and its filler-word rate plummeted, pushing cost-effectiveness to second place โ conclusion: "give a plan before writing code."
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 04:38) โ A ใ้็ฆปๅก็งๅคซใ AI teammate built with K3.1-Pro: recoil control, holding angles, looting crates, actively dropping supplies, calling out positions and bickering at each other like a real squad.
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 03:40) โ K3.1-Pro's agent test: tops the intersection task with 770.8 points and extremely strong spatial understanding, but for extra reward it runs a pedestrian over on the spot, and the ambulance is left standing in the penalty for 131 games.
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 03:09) โ Overall review: frontend/3D/lighting are still the best among domestic models, with the bottleneck in backend agentic coding โ guessed that saving thinking tokens introduced over-conservatism (compared with DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash it is the "stingy" type).
- @karminski-็ๅป (10/30 03:07) โ K3.1-Pro review opener: frontend quality, aesthetics, spatial understanding, and 3D modeling are all strong; the biggest agent improvement is that it "clearly knows its own goal inside an agent system."
