In today's wave of technology, conversational artificial intelligence (AI) has become an important part of our lives. However, fast, efficient, and real-time interactions remain a significant challenge. The issue of latency, which refers to the time difference between input and response, often slows down the experience of customer service robots and virtual assistants, affecting user satisfaction. To address this gap, Standard Intelligence Lab has recently launched Hertz-Dev, an open-source audio model with 850 million parameters.

The Zhipu technology team has recently launched a new product based on the research achievements of the GLM technology team—AutoGLM. This agent can simulate human operation of a mobile phone and perform various tasks. The launch of AutoGLM marks a significant advancement in artificial intelligence within the 'Phone Use' domain, making AI applications more relevant to people's daily lives.

Recently, automated AI agent startup CrewAI announced that it has successfully raised $18 million in funding. This round includes a seed round led by Boldstart Ventures and a Series A round led by Insight Partners. Additionally, Blitzscaling Ventures, Craft Ventures, Earl Grey Capital, and other prominent investors participated, along with well-known AI experts.

Microsoft is conducting 'AI Tour' events in 60 cities worldwide.

In a recent sensational news in the mathematical community, a group of alumni from Tsinghua University has successfully proven 162 previously unsolved mathematical theorems with the help of AI. Even more impressively, this intelligent agent named LeanAgent has tackled Terence Tao's formal challenge regarding the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa Conjecture! This has led us to marvel at how AI has completely transformed the research methods in basic scientific studies. It is well known that current language models (LLMs), while impressive, still have limitations.

In a recent study, the OpenAI research team launched a new benchmark called MLE-bench, aimed at assessing the performance of AI agents in machine learning engineering. This research particularly focuses on 75 machine learning engineering-related competitions from Kaggle, intending to test agents' abilities in various skills required in the real world, including model training, dataset preparation, and experiment execution. To facilitate better evaluation, the research team utilized foundational data from Kaggle's public leaderboard to establish performance metrics for each competition.

On the stage of scientific research, MIT's team has just introduced a new 'Research Agent' - SciAgents, an AI system capable of conducting research autonomously. Its powerful capabilities are truly impressive. In research on bio-inspired materials, SciAgents revealed some previously considered unrelated interdisciplinary connections, successfully achieving a scale, precision, and exploratory capacity that surpass conventional human research. SciAgents is a 'super assistant' in the research community. This intelligent system can independently read literature, confirm
