AI News Bulletin

The developments that actually move the field

← AI Kaleido

A curated bulletin of AI development stories, sorted onto the AI Kaleido AI Intelligence Radar. Filter by vector to see where the field is moving.

The five vectors

Frontier Intelligence

LLMs → reasoning → coding → autonomous agents.

Agentic Enterprise

AI doesn't merely answer — it plans, executes and collaborates with other agents.

Physical AI

AI leaves the screen — robots, factories and autonomous systems.

AI Infrastructure

Compute → inference → simulation → AI factories → data centers.

AI Governance

The more autonomously agents act, the more containment and monitoring matter.

The AI story is shifting from “Who has the smartest model?” to “Who can build the most capable AI system around the model?”
