Musk's xAI launches Grok 4.1 with lower hallucination rate on the web and apps — no API access (for now)
In what appeared to be a bid to soak up some of Google's limelight prior to the launch of its new Gemini 3 flagship AI model — now recorded as the most powerful LLM in the world by multiple independent evaluators — Elon Musk's rival AI startup xAI last night unveiled its newest large language model, Grok 4.1. The model is now live for consumer use on Grok.com, social network X (formerly Twitter), and the company’s iOS and Android mobile apps, and it arrives with major architectural and usability enhancements, among them: faster reasoning, improved emotional intelligence, and significantly reduced hallucination rates. xAI also commendably published a white paper on its evaluations and including a small bit on training process here. Across public benchmarks, Grok 4.1 has vaulted to the top of the leaderboard, outperforming rival models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google — at least, Google's pre-Gemini 3 model (Gemini 2.5 Pro). It builds upon the success of xAI's Grok-4 Fast, which VentureBeat covered favorably shortly following its release back in September 2025. However, enterprise developers looking to integrate the new and improved model Grok 4.1 into production environments will find one major constraint: it's not yet available through xAI's public API. Despite its high benchmarks, Grok 4.1 remains confined to xAI's consumer-facing interfaces, with no announced timeline for API exposure. At present, only older models—including Grok 4 Fast (reasoning and non-reasoning variants), Grok 4 0709, and legacy models such as Grok 3, Grok 3 Mini, and Grok 2 Vision—are available for programmatic use via the xAI developer API. These support up to 2 million tokens of context, with token pricing ranging from $0.20 to $3.00 per million depending on the configuration. For now, this limits Grok 4.1's utility in enterprise workflows that rely on backend integration, fine-tuned agentic pipelines, or scalable internal tooling. While the consumer rollout positions Grok 4.1 as the most capable LLM in xAI's portfolio, production deployments in enterprise environments remain on hold.
谷歌 Gemini 3.0 深夜炸场:没有悬念的最强 AI
来了。预热了快一个月的 Gemini 3.0 Pro,就在刚刚,正式在 Google AI Studio 上线 Preview 版,API 也同步开放。接下来将陆续上线Google的各项产品中。没有任何多余的废话,打开 Model Card,满眼写着的只有两个字:碾压。按照 Google 披露的测试数据,Gemini 3 Pro 毫无悬念地成为了目前地球上数学最强的 AI。在 AIME 2025 数学测试中,配合代码执行,它直接拿到了100% 的满分。而在数学竞赛的「地狱模式」MathArena 里,当包括 GPT-5.1 在内的其他大模型还在 1% 上下挣扎时,Gemini 3 Pro 直接干到了23.4%。编程能力方面,虽然在 SWE-Bench 上未拿 SOTA——但绝对属于第一梯队。Live Code Bench 的 Elo 得分超过 2400 分 ,在工具调用和终端操作基准测试中更是名列第一。真正炸裂的是它的「视觉智能」。对屏幕截图的理解能力高达72.7%,是目前最先进水平的两倍。这意味着 Agent 不再是瞎子,它将彻底重塑 AI 操作计算机的模式。但这还没完,Google 今晚还顺手扔出了一个小王炸:自家的 Agentic 编程平台——Google Antigravity。此前网传 Gemini 3 能实现「端到端编程」,大家以为是模型成精了。但看起来,并不是模型成精,而是 Google 正在探索如何用更好的系统工程实现端到端编程。如果说 Cursor 是目前最强的「外骨骼」,它通过 AI 补全让你写代码更快;那 Antigravity 就是奔着「自动驾驶」去的。它不再只是一个编辑器,而是一个智能体优先(Agent-first)发环境。集成了 Gemini 3.0 和能操控浏览器的 Gemini 2.5 Computer Use 模型,它的 Agent 能自己写代码、自己开终端跑测试、甚至自己打开浏览器验证 UI,发现报错自己修。不讲故事,只拼肌肉。Google 用这一波硬核发布宣告:新王已至。有趣的是,这次连 Sam Altman 都献上了自己的点赞。:
Microsoft remakes Windows for an era of autonomous AI agents
Microsoft is fundamentally restructuring its Windows operating system to become what executives call the first "agentic OS," embedding the infrastructure needed for autonomous AI agents to operate securely at enterprise scale — a watershed moment in the evolution of personal computing that positions the 40-year-old platform as the foundation for a new era of human-machine collaboration. The company announced Tuesday at its Ignite conference that it is introducing native agent infrastructure directly into Windows 11, allowing AI agents — autonomous software programs that can perform complex, multi-step tasks on behalf of users — to discover tools, execute workflows, and interact with applications through standardized protocols while operating in secure, policy-controlled environments separate from user sessions. The shift is Microsoft's most significant architectural evolution of Windows since the introduction of the modern security model, transforming the operating system from a platform where users manually orchestrate applications into one where they can "simply express your desired outcome, and agents handle the complexity," according to Pavan Davuluri, President of Windows & Devices at Microsoft. "Windows 11 starts with this notion of secure by design, secure by default," Davuluri said in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat. "And a lot of the work that we're doing today, when we think about the engagement we have with our customers, the expectations they have with us is making sure we are building upon the fact that Windows is the most secure platform for them and is the most resilient platform as well." The announcements arrive as enterprises are experimenting with AI agents but struggling with fragmented tooling, security concerns, and lack of centralized management — challenges that Microsoft believes only operating system-level integration can solve. The stakes are enormous: with Windows running on an estimated 1.4 billion devices globally, Microsoft's architectural choices will likely shape how organizations deploy autonomous AI systems for years to come.
Google unveils Gemini 3 claiming the lead in math, science, multimodal and agentic AI benchmarks

After more than a month of rumors and feverish speculation — including Polymarket wagering on the release date — Google today unveiled Gemini 3, its newest proprietary frontier model family and the company’s most comprehensive AI release since the Gemini line debuted in 2023. The models are proprietary (closed-source), available exclusively through Google products, developer platforms, and paid APIs, including Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, the Gemini command line interface (CLI) for developers, and third-party integrations across the broader integrated developer environment (IDE) ecosystem. Gemini 3 arrives as a full portfolio, including:Gemini 3 Pro: the flagship frontier modelGemini 3 Deep Think: an enhanced reasoning modeGenerative interface models powering Visual Layout and Dynamic ViewGemini Agent for multi-step task executionGemini 3 engine embedded in Google Antigravity, the company’s new agent-first development environment. "This is the best model in the world, by a crazy wide margin!" wrote Google DeepMind Research Scientist Yi Tay on X. Indeed, already, independent AI benchmarking and analysis organization Artificial Analysis has crowned Gemini 3 Pro the "new leader in AI" globally, achieving the top score of 73 on the organization's index, leaping Google from its former placement of 9th overall with the preceding Gemini 2.5 Pro model, which scored 60 behind OpenAI, Moonshot AI, xAI, Anthropic and MiniMax models. As Artificial Analysis wrote on X: "For the first time, Google has the most intelligent model." Another independent leaderboard site, LMArena reported that Gemini 3 Pro ranked first in the world across all of its major evaluation tracks, including text reasoning, vision, coding, and web development. In a public post, the @arena account on X said the model surpassed even the newly released (hours old) Grok-4.1, as well as Claude 4.5, and GPT-5-class systems in categories such as math, long-form queries, creative writing, and several occupational benchmarks. The post also highlighted the scale of gains over Gemini 2.5 Pro, including a 50-point jump in text Elo, a 70-point increase in vision, and a 280-point rise in web-development tasks. While these results reflect live community voting and remain preliminary, they signal unusually broad performance improvements across domains where previous Gemini models trailed competitors.
Writer's AI agents can actually do your work—not just chat about it
Writer, a San Francisco-based artificial intelligence startup, is launching a unified AI agent platform designed to let any employee automate complex business workflows without writing code — a capability the company says distinguishes it from consumer-oriented tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT. The platform, called Writer Agent, combines chat-based assistance with autonomous task execution in a single interface. Starting Tuesday, enterprise customers can use natural language to instruct the AI to create presentations, analyze financial data, generate marketing campaigns, or coordinate across multiple business systems like Salesforce, Slack, and Google Workspace—then save those workflows as reusable "Playbooks" that run automatically on schedules. The announcement comes as enterprises struggle to move AI initiatives beyond pilot programs into production at scale. Writer CEO May Habib has been outspoken about this challenge, recently revealing that 42% of Fortune 500 executives surveyed by her company said AI is "tearing their company apart" due to coordination failures between departments. "We're delivering an agent interface that is both incredibly powerful and radically simple to transform individual productivity into organizational impact," Habib said in a statement. "Writer Agent is the difference between a single sales rep asking a chatbot to write an outreach email and an enterprise ensuring that 1,000 reps are all sending on-brand, compliant, and contextually-aware messages to target accounts."
How AI tax startup Blue J torched its entire business model for ChatGPT—and became a $300 million company
In the winter of 2022, as the tech world was becoming mesmerized by the sudden, explosive arrival of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Benjamin Alarie faced a pivotal choice. His legal tech startup, Blue J, had a respectable business built on the AI of a bygone era, serving hundreds of accounting firms with predictive models. But it had hit a ceiling. Alarie, a tenured tax law professor at the University of Toronto, saw the nascent, error-prone, yet powerful capabilities of large language models not as a curiosity, but as the future. He made a high-stakes decision: to pivot his entire company, which had been painstakingly built over nearly a decade, and rebuild it from the ground up on this unproven technology. That bet has paid off handsomely. Blue J has since quietly secured a $122 million Series D funding round co-led by Oak HC/FT and Sapphire Ventures, placing the company's valuation at over $300 million. The move transformed Blue J from a niche player into one of Canada's fastest-growing legal tech firms, multiplying its revenue roughly twelve-fold and attracting 10 to 15 new customers every day. The company now serves more than 3,500 organizations, including global accounting giant KPMG and several Fortune 500 companies. It is tackling a critical bottleneck in the professional services industry: a severe and worsening talent shortage. The U.S. has 340,000 fewer accountants than it did five years ago, and with 75% of current CPAs expected to retire in the next decade, firms are desperate for tools that can amplify the productivity of their remaining experts.
