Gemini 2.5 Computer Use Model: The Revolution That Teaches AI to “Use Computers” Is Here “ As you read this, you might be tired of repetitive web operations or frustrated with tedious UI testing. Now, there’s a new solution to these challenges. Ten years ago, we dreamed of AI assistants that could handle repetitive computer tasks. Today, Google has turned that dream into reality. Based on Gemini 2.5 Pro, the Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model doesn’t just understand your instructions—it actually “sees” the screen and performs clicks, typing, and scrolling like a human, accomplishing tasks that were once strictly manual. …
Conquer Browser Debugging with Qoder and Chrome DevTools MCP: A Hands-On Starter Guide from Zero to Hero Picture this: You’re deep in the trenches of coding, your React app finally fires up on localhost:3000, looking slick as ever. But deploy it to production, and bam—laggy pages, mysterious API failures, and a console flooded with red JavaScript errors that hit like a freight train. You flip open Chrome DevTools, tab-hopping between Network, Console, and Performance, desperately piecing together clues. It’s exhausting, right? What if you could skip the browser-IDE ping-pong and debug right from your code editor, like chatting with an …

Fake News Detector: Building an AI-Powered Fact-Checking System App Screenshot Why Do We Need Fake News Detection? Have you ever come across news that felt a little too dramatic? You sense something is off but can’t pinpoint it. You try to verify it, but it takes too much time and effort. A few days later, you realize it was completely fake. That’s the danger of fake news. It wastes attention and time. It shapes public opinion and sometimes even influences policy or markets. So here’s the big question: Can AI help us fact-check news automatically? Yes — and that’s exactly …

## Introduction: The Problem with Static Papers You find a promising research paper. It describes a perfect method for your project. But then comes the reality: wrestling with complex codebases, dependency nightmares, and cryptic documentation. The excitement fades, replaced by frustration. This is the central bottleneck in modern science. Research papers are passive artifacts. They describe discoveries but require immense effort to use. The knowledge is trapped behind technical barriers. What if the paper could actively help you? What if you could simply ask it a question in plain English? Enter Paper2Agent, a groundbreaking framework from Stanford University that reimagines …
Introduction: When You Hit Enter and Realize Your AI Isn’t That Smart Do you remember the first time you dropped a 5,000-line Python project into an AI model? I was full of excitement, expecting the model to act like a senior engineer—untangling dependencies, fixing annoying bugs, maybe even suggesting a better architecture. Reality hit hard: by the time the model reached line 3,000, it had already forgotten half the functions, produced contradictory answers, and sometimes hallucinated classes that didn’t exist. That’s when it struck me: the size of the context window and the way reasoning is handled determine whether an …
How MIT Taught AI to Plan with 94% Accuracy: A Deep Dive into PDDL-Instruct Imagine asking a powerful AI like ChatGPT to devise a plan for building a piece of furniture. It might produce a list of steps that sound perfectly logical: “Attach leg A to panel B using screw C.” It looks right. It sounds right. But if you try to follow it, you might find that step 3 requires a tool you don’t have, or step 7 tells you to attach a part you already sealed away inside the structure in step 2. The plan is plausible-sounding nonsense. …
1. Why one more Python math package? Python owns the data-science mind-share, but its core linalg stack was never designed to expose every knob in NVIDIA’s hardware. If you need: Mixed-precision GEMM with fused bias–GELU in a single kernel, or In-kernel FFT for radar filtering inside your own CUDA function, or A user-written scaling function welded to an FFT so the output is already normalized, you normally descend into C++ and 300-page PDFs. nvmath-python stays in Python yet exposes the same levers. Think of it as CuPy’s older sibling who studied engineering: same household, more tools. 2. Installation: one pip …
A 5-minute read for engineers who need 128 K tokens tonight, not next quarter. 1. The Scene: 2 A.M. and the Context-Length Wall Li, a Beijing-based ML engineer, just wanted his 671 B model to read a 100 k-token spec and answer one obscure question. By token 60 k the GPU fans sounded like jet engines; at 90 k the server threw an OOM and the latency graph looked like Everest. Sound familiar? Long-context is the new memory wall—and the bill is paid in both dollars and sleep. The next morning DeepSeek dropped an experimental image on Docker Hub: lmsysorg/sglang:dsv32 …

Logics-Parsing: Breaking Boundaries in Complex Document Parsing – Why I’m Impressed by Alibaba’s Open-Source “All-Rounder” When faced with academic papers featuring multi-column layouts, mathematical formulas, and chemical structures, traditional OCR tools consistently fall short—until I encountered this 7B-parameter “compact powerhouse.” I still remember the last time I needed to parse a double-column academic paper. I had to launch three different tools in sequence: one for text recognition, another for tables, and a third specifically for mathematical formulas. The entire process felt like playing a technical version of “whack-a-mole”—just as I solved one problem, another popped up. That frustration persisted until …
Integrating MATLAB-Style Code in Python Using Octave and the oct2py Library Python and MATLAB Integration Introduction The integration of scientific computing platforms has become increasingly valuable in today’s data-driven research environment. Many engineers and researchers have extensive experience with MATLAB, a powerful numerical computing environment with its own programming language and ecosystem. However, Python has emerged as a dominant force in data science, machine learning, and scientific computing due to its extensive libraries and open-source nature. This creates a practical challenge: how can we leverage existing MATLAB expertise and code while taking advantage of Python’s rich ecosystem? The solution lies …
