This isn’t science fiction. It’s the new reality of streaming video generation, where AI becomes an interactive creative partner rather than a batch-processing tool. Technical Breakthrough: 10x Scale Leap The …
Picture this: You’re using an AI code assistant to auto-generate deployment scripts when a chilling thought hits—what if it accidentally deletes core configuration files or secretly sends server keys to an external domain? As AI agents (like automation tools and MCP servers) become integral to development workflows, the question of “how to keep them within safe boundaries” grows increasingly urgent. Traditional containerization solutions are too heavy, with configurations complex enough to deter half of developers. Simple permission controls, on the other hand, are too blunt to prevent sophisticated privilege escalations. That’s where Anthropic’s open-source Sandbox Runtime (srt) comes in—a lightweight …

The Vision Compression Revolution: How DeepSeek-OCR Turns One Image into Tenfold Context “If one sentence equals a token, how many memories can an image hold?” — The DeepSeek Team 1. The Long-Context Problem: When Models Forget What They Just Read Every LLM user has faced this: You feed a large model thousands of words — a meeting transcript, a long PDF, or a research paper — and halfway through, it forgets what came first. Why? Because transformer-based LLMs suffer from quadratic scaling in attention complexity. Longer sequences mean exponential computation costs and faster “memory decay.” Humans, however, don’t work that …

This subtle shift divides the new AI landscape into two emerging …
Why Do We Need a Next-Gen Audio Codec? With Speech Large Language Models (Speech LLMs) advancing rapidly, a critical bottleneck has emerged: how can we efficiently represent and process audio data for these models? Traditional audio codecs like OPUS or AAC weren’t designed to work seamlessly with LLMs. Their high frame rates and redundant representations are like trying to learn Chinese using an English dictionary—it’s possible, but highly inefficient. This is the very problem LongCat-Audio-Codec aims to solve. It’s not just another codec; it’s a dedicated audio tokenizer and detokenizer built for Speech LLMs. Core Innovation: Parallel Token Generation What …
