News on open-source AI: community models, open licenses, datasets, and tools. We report updates, tests, and clear how-to guides. We explain speed vs quality choices and simple ways to ship. Feature active projects from Hugging Face, Stability, and more.
The Visual Studio Code homepage now opens with two bold lines: “The open source AI code editor” and “Your home for multi-agent development” (code.visualstudio.com). Those words sit above download buttons for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It’s a subtle but clear repositioning. VS Code is no longer just a fast editor with extensions; the VS Code […]
August 1, 2026 — NASA’s Curiosity rover has driven into a valley paved with tiny, polygon-shaped fractures that look like a honeycomb. According to ScienceDaily, the patterns are only inches wide yet sprawl across the terrain and even wrap around a nearby 20‑foot‑tall feature. The scale and coverage make the Curiosity honeycomb Mars scene one […]
CrewAI’s GitHub page pitches a Python framework that marries role-based agents (“Crews”) with an orchestration layer called Flows, aiming to turn demos into durable services. According to the project, more than 100,000 developers have passed community coursework, a sign the toolkit is spreading beyond hobby use. At the center is CrewAI event-driven automation, which promises […]
On July 9, 2026, OpenAI launched its GPT-5.6 family in three sizes—Luna, Terra, and Sol—each with a 1 million token context window and input token pricing from $1 to $5 per million, according to Dentro’s July 10, 2026 update. Dentro also reports the models introduce programmatic tool calling, multi-agent orchestration, and prompt cache breakpoints, and […]
On July 29, 2026, ScienceDaily reported that a major U.S. trial found silver diamine fluoride stopped decay in more than half of treated baby teeth. The brush-on liquid takes seconds to apply. For many children, that could mean fewer drills, fewer infections, and fewer surgeries. What the ScienceDaily trial says about silver diamine fluoride ScienceDaily […]
Over 100,000 developers have completed CrewAI’s community courses, according to the project’s GitHub repository. That scale, paired with a focus on Crews and the newer event-driven Flows, points to a clear pivot: from hobbyist agents to production operations. The emphasis on CrewAI Flows is the tell. What CrewAI Flows adds to agent work CrewAI describes […]
10,000+ open-source AI projects are now tracked in one place, and it updates every hour. As of July 27, 2026, OpenSourceAI.tech advertises a live hub that covers more than 1,800 AI models, compares 230+ tools, and folds GitHub momentum, Hugging Face drops, and model pricing into a single feed. The pitch is simple: one page, […]
Goose’s desktop agent now doubles as a Goose ACP server, letting IDEs talk to a local, standards-based assistant that already knows how to use tools. According to the project’s documentation, Goose supports 70+ Model Context Protocol (MCP) extensions and can act as an Agent Client Protocol (ACP) server for editors like Zed, JetBrains, and VS […]
Goose connects to more than 70 extensions through the Model Context Protocol and runs as a native desktop app on macOS, Linux, and Windows, all built in Rust for portability and speed. According to Goose’s documentation, the project aims to be a general-purpose, open agent you can run locally for research, writing, automation, and code. […]
