LinkedIn introduces Cognitive Memory Agent (CMA), generative AI infrastructure layer enabling stateful, context-aware systems. It provides persistent memory across episodic, semantic, and procedural layers, supporting multi-agent coordination, retrieval, and lifecycle management. CMA addresses LLM statelessness and enables production-grade personalization and long-term context in AI applications.

Cheng Lou, a Midjourney engineer, recently released Pretext, a 15KB open-source TypeScript library that measures and lays out text without browser layout reflows, enabling advanced UX/UI patterns like infinite lists, masonry layouts, and scroll position anchoring to run at 60-120 fps. Pretext was built using an AI loop that reverse-engineered the DOM’s layout calculations.
