Oracle's move is controversial because it has investigated including the GraalVM JIT compiler in all OpenJDK distributions, not just its own.
By Karsten SilzNexa AI unveiled Omnivision, a compact vision-language model tailored for edge devices. By significantly reducing image tokens from 729 to 81, Omnivision lowers latency and computational requirements while maintaining strong performance in tasks like visual question answering and image captioning.
By Robert KrzaczyńskiMartin Thwaites introduces outside-in testing, how to use Observability techniques in a local development to build applications that are easier to debug locally and run as a first class citizen.
By Martin ThwaitesPhysical Intelligence recently announced π0 (pi-zero), a general-purpose AI foundation model for robots. Pi-zero is based on a pre-trained vision-language model (VLM) and outperforms other baseline models in evaluations on five robot tasks.
By Anthony AlfordAWS has unveiled Lambda SnapStart for Python and .NET, enhancing serverless app performance by reducing cold start latency. This feature builds on the success of Lambda SnapStart for Java, allowing faster initializations through early environment caching. Available in multiple global regions, it offers efficient management of caching costs with Python 3.12+ and .NET 8+.
