Here’s what’s new with Genie 4:
🔵 Photorealism: Built on Gemini Omni for lifelike detail across spaces and subjects
🔵 Advanced physics: Aerodynamics, collisions, and people who move naturally
🔵 Real-time controls: Prompt to change the scene, add elements, or interact with characters
🔵 Native audio: Ambient sound, music, background noise, and interactive dialogue
🔵 Gemini reasoning: Plans multi-step events to maintain coherence as scenes evolve
These capabilities are a step toward developing safe virtual environments to see how agents and robots navigate their surroundings.
We’re exploring early use cases with trusted testers first, before bringing the model to Google AI Ultra subscribers in Project Genie and early access partners in our API and @GoogleAIStudio soon.

Ghostty 1.4 is now out! Full Kitty graphics with animation (the first terminal besides Kitty to do it), scrollback compression for much lower memory usage, macOS 27 support, a new OpenGL renderer on Linux, ghostty +ssh, big performance gains, and hundreds more changes.
The highlights:
- Scrollback compression: scrollback compresses ~90+% on average, meaning your terminals use that much less live memory
- Huge memory savings across the board: no single large thing, just lots of good improvements lowers memory usage everywhere, netting anywhere from 50 to 90% less memory usage depending on workload
- Kitty graphics is now 100% complete, including animation and relative placements, after a full conformance pass against the spec and Kitty itself
- The Kitty clipboard protocol, with an image preview when a program asks to read your clipboard
- Split drag and drop on Linux, including between windows
- ghostty +ssh installs terminfo on remote hosts automatically, so things just work over SSH
- Lots of terminal emulation accuracy fixes
This release is 7 months of work from 172 contributors over 2,889 commits. It also fixes 10 security advisories, so please update.

No, WebMCP isn't replacing MCP.
MCP connects agents to your services.
WebMCP connects agents to your website while it's open and the user's in the loop.
Here's how they fit together ⤵️

OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, pushing the cost efficiency frontier. It is the first Terra-class model since GPT-5.6, and is more intelligent for less than a third of the cost
Pricing per token is half or less that of GPT-5.6 Terra - at $1/$5 per million input/output tokens vs $2/$12 for the previous model. Cache write has also halved, now at $1.25 per million tokens. Cached input is one quarter at $0.05 vs $0.20 per million tokens.
Key takeaways:
➤ Pareto-optimal for Intelligence vs Cost at low and medium effort: At max effort, GPT-6.1 Terra gains 6 points in the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index over GPT-5.6 Terra, at less than a third of the cost per task ($0.40 vs $1.40). At lower effort levels the gain is larger, between 7 and 13 points. The low and medium effort levels are Pareto-optimal for cost efficiency, while the other effort levels sit behind the frontier. At max effort, the model scores 4 points below GPT-6.1 Sol and 10 points above GPT-6 Luna in the Intelligence Index.
➤ Pushes the Coding Agent Index cost efficiency frontier: With a score of 48 in the newly released Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index v2.0, the model is 6 points below GPT-6.1 Sol (54) and 17 points above GPT-6 Luna (31). The xhigh and low effort settings sit on the frontier of cost efficiency in the Coding Agent Index, while other effort levels are behind the frontier.
➤ 50 point drop in hallucination rate: GPT-6.1 Terra guesses 38% of the time when it does not know the answer to a question in AA-Omniscience, our private knowledge and hallucination benchmark. Previously, GPT-5.6 Terra's hallucination rate was 88%. This significant reduction in hallucination is coupled with a 2 point increase in AA-Omniscience accuracy - meaning the model simultaneously answers more questions correctly.
➤ 20 point jump in Terminal-Bench 4.0, small improvements across most evaluations: The model makes significant progress in the terminal-based agentic benchmark, Terminal-Bench 4.0, with a gain of ~20 points, now rivaling GPT-6.1 Sol at max effort. Gains across most other evaluations are smaller, for example, 5 points in GDP.pdf.
Congratulations @OpenAI and @sama on the launch!

Nodedades de la semana:
IA y papers · domingo 25 de octubre
Kimi K3.1 Pro se queda a 3 puntos del mejor modelo cerrado, OpenAI cuenta cómo un modelo se le escapó del entorno de entrenamiento, llama.cpp ya corre DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash y tres papers que merecen la pena. 🧵

I designed all of these landing pages in the last two months, using @higgsfield , Claude, and Cursor with my custom AI designer skill.
The skill is open source: github.com/elayadesign/ai-de…

Anthropic is now recommending that companies REMOVE unnecessary subagents from their AI systems.
This is a pretty significant shift in agent architecture, with their team finding that a single agent equipped with skills can frequently outperform complex multi-agent systems, and one customer seeing roughly 2x faster execution.
The emerging rules of thumb:
→ Skills: Teach the agent HOW to do something, including procedures, expertise, and instructions.
→ Tools / MCP: Give the agent the ability to DO things through APIs, actions, and live data.
→ Subagents: Use for parallel work, isolated context, or tasks a single agent struggles with.
The interesting part is progressive disclosure. Instead of spawning specialized agents or stuffing everything into a giant prompt, one agent discovers and loads skills and tools as needed.
Their advice is to fold existing subagents into the main loop, turn their instructions into skills, expose their actions as tools, and run evals to see if performance holds up.
As models have gotten smarter, improving agent architecture is becoming less about what you can add and more about what you can delete.

Algo que estamos viendo mucho estos días al debatir sobre Pangram es "pues en esta prueba que he hecho se equivoca".
Y sí, puede ser que hayas dado justo con un ejemplo en los que falla, que con los datos que tenemos encima de la mesa son excepcionales ahora mismo, como explica Kiko. Pero más probable es que hayas probado con una muestra demasiado pequeña.
Llevado al extremo, con una sola palabra escrita por humano o generada con IA, Pangram no tendría nada que hacer ¡obviamente!. Necesita analizar como están escritas las frases: la tasa de falsos negativos baja del 1,29 % en textos de 50-99 palabras al 0,21 % en textos de 250-499 palabras
En un párrafo fallaría mucho también, con varios la detección mejora notablemente. Y con textos mucho más extensos como un libro la tasa de acierto es extraordinaria, aunque eso tampoco garantiza que sea infalible.
Lo mismo a algo como "escribí un texto con IA y cambié dos frases y ya no lo pilló": ahí pasan dos cosas. Una es que tiende a evitar los falsos positivos (aunque eso implique dejar escapar algunos textos generados con IA) y otra es que en un texto pequeño cambiar "dos frases" es alterar un porcentaje grande.
Todo esto es compatible con que Pangram se equivoque en algún caso. Sus resultados pueden ser muy buenos estadísticamente de forma agregada y, aun así, en un caso individual resultar terriblemente injusta.
Escribí hace tiempo algo al respecto: error500.net/p/la-sospecha-p…
🔍 ¿Funciona el detector de IA Pangram?
He recopilado siete pruebas independientes. Respuesta corta: parece claro que SÍ. Casi nunca marca como IA textos humanos (entre 0% y 0,2% de textos probados).
Hilo con los detalles👇

ALT Tabla: ¿Cuántas veces confunde Pangram a un humano con una IA? Textos humanos marcados como IA en cada prueba. Duke (Pangram 4): 1 de 3.000, 0,03%. Next: 1 de 460, 0,22%. Epoch AI (3.3.2): 0 de 495. Tuhin Chakrabarty: 0 de 50 novelas. VeryFinePrint: 0 de 8.029 fragmentos de libros nunca digitalizados. Recopilación de Steven Mollmann (17 estudios): 49 de 36.282, 0,14%.

Un año más @david_bonilla volvió a hacerlo y gozamos de una gran #TRG26, de sus awesomicas ponencias y de su irrepetible comunidad. Y por supuesto, @Ideable volverá a la #TRG27
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

Seriously, this time it really feels and shows that the gap between US frontier closed source and Chinese open weight models are closing.
Anthropic should release fable 5.5 asap to proof they still have a significant lead.
It’s crazy how much china caught up.
Seriously, this is such an insane release, I did not expect this:
Kimi K3.1 Pro beats every listed US frontier model on 6 of 14 benchmarks in Moonshot’s evaluations.
At $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, its standard token rates are 50% below Opus 5.5 ($4/$20 !!) and 80% below GPT-6 Astra ($10/$50!!)
In other words: SOTA much cheaper, local running (with enough compute)
