    DeepSeek open-sources production-grade inference framework DeepInfer

    On October 20, DeepSeek announced the open-sourcing of its internal production-grade inference framework DeepInfer, which integrates technologies such as distributed inference and speculative decoding and is already compatible with NVIDIA SM100 GPUs and Huawei Ascend 950 NPUs. Bloomberg noted that inference technology is usually regarded by AI companies as a core competitive advantage and is rarely made public; this open-sourcing gives outsiders a look at how DeepSeek keeps operating costs down. The documentation also states that building a complete service still requires a KV cache system, Prefill/Decode disaggregation, and load balancing across data-parallel replicas, which are not fully included in this open-source project.

    Broadcom releases VMware HyperArmor, providing proactive protection for the ESX hypervisor

    At VMware Explore on Tour in Frankfurt, Broadcom released VMware HyperArmor, which provides host-level proactive protection for ESX 8 and later versions. By allowing only known binaries and scripts to run and blocking unauthorized execution and writes, it enables virtual patching without reboots, and it adds TOTP two-factor authentication for SSH logins. The product will be offered as a paid add-on, launching in the first quarter of the fiscal year beginning in November; pricing has not yet been announced. Broadcom also mentioned that it has used Anthropic's Claude Mythos Preview model to review source code for several months, and the related findings have been incorporated into VCF 9.1.1.

    Anthropic Launches Claude Duet, a Proactive Personal Agent App

    On October 21, Anthropic released Claude Duet, a standalone app in which Claude runs as a proactive agent that can monitor connected apps, send a summary every morning, and execute tasks in the background within a cloud virtual machine. The product is currently a research preview, available only to Claude Pro and Max subscribers in the United States via a waitlist; it is not charged separately but consumes subscription usage, and it checks the account only once every few hours. The article compares it with Meta's Muse, launched on September 8, and OpenAI's Dots, launched on September 29, and mentions privacy experts' concerns about agents accessing personal data.

    AgiBot Open-Sources AGIBOT WORLD 2026 Phase 4 Embodied Reasoning Dataset

    On October 22, AgiBot officially open-sourced the AGIBOT WORLD 2026 Phase 4 Physical Reasoning dataset, with task design shifting its focus from manipulation difficulty to decision-making difficulty. The dataset constructs different state scenarios of the same task around factors such as object count, occlusion relationships, position occupancy, and task progress, covering nine core reasoning capabilities including attribute selection, conditional judgment, manipulation feasibility assessment, target search, long-horizon planning, and process memory, and sets three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard. The data describes goals through task instructions, characterizes task structure through task stages, subtask intervals, and action steps, and provides action descriptions along with spatial annotations such as boxes, points, and lines. It will be used to train AgiBot's upcoming Agent framework and new-generation foundation model.

    Volcano Engine Launches First Batch of Enterprise Trials for Seedance 2.5 4K Model, Supplying 20 Studios and Directors Worldwide by Invitation

    Volcano Engine has launched the first batch of enterprise user trials for the Seedance 2.5 4K model, tied to specific works and supplied by invitation to 20 studios and directors worldwide, targeting high-end film and television needs. This version emphasizes more delicate and natural character performances and finer consistency in reference generation and editing, and is the most powerful model in the Seedance 2.5 generation. A film studio that has already conducted trials said the price was not higher than expected; users can first generate sample footage at 480P and, once satisfied, regenerate it in 4K. Among the 20 works currently in use, the earliest, an S-tier IP for a satellite TV channel, will air as soon as next month.

    Anthropic launches Claude Duet, a proactive agent app

    Anthropic has launched Claude Duet, a proactive agent app, opening it to US Pro and Max subscribers via a waitlist. Duet checks connected accounts every few hours, runs on a cloud virtual machine with a separate browser, uses Claude Opus 5.5, and users currently cannot watch the browser operations in progress. Based on Opus 5.5's API pricing, a check that reads 40K tokens and writes 1.5K tokens costs about $0.19; six checks a day comes to about $34 a month, higher than Pro's $20 monthly price. Before sending messages, making payments, signing documents, or deleting content, Duet shows the specific action and waits for approval; securities trading and transfers between accounts remain prohibited even with approval.
