    SolarSnap Wins 2026 Colorado Impact Hackathon

    SolarSnap took first place at the second Colorado Impact Hackathon held at Google's Boulder office; it is an AI app that uses a phone camera to help homeowners find the ideal solar panel installation plan. Second place Grid Watch is an AI-managed battery network that can maintain power and lower electricity bills during wildfire outages; third place Grid Guard provides predictive capabilities for grid hardening. The event was hosted by Google in partnership with CU Boulder and the Colorado Energy Office.

    Databricks CEO hits back at Snowflake: You're not doing AI, why not come buy our AI tokens

    Databricks CEO Ali Ghodsi responded on X to Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy's challenge, saying Snowflake "isn't doing the AI thing," suggesting it obtain model tokens for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and xAI through Databricks, and promoting Unity Gateway, which provides model routing, budget management and access control. Ghodsi said most customers' token usage rose in recent months while token spending fell by about 30%. Ramaswamy had earlier demanded that Databricks disclose data such as growth excluding pass-through inference revenue, free cash flow and profit margins, and responded by saying, "I asked about revenue, I'm not here to contribute revenue."

    Anthropic Platform Lead: Multi-Agent Deployment Stuck on Infrastructure, Identity, Isolation, and Kill Switches

    Anthropic platform lead Katelyn Lesse believes that no matter how powerful the models become, multi-agent systems producing trustworthy results still depends on engineers getting infrastructure, identity and authorization, security isolation, observability, and kill switches right—and most of these problems remain unsolved. She points out that agents are isolated, stateful, single-instance workloads, unlike the stateless replicas Kubernetes excels at, and names new runtimes such as Google's Agent Substrate. She also warns that a compromised agent can pass injected instructions to its peers, with a system-level blast radius, so actions should run inside strongly isolated sandboxes.

    Continuously improving agent quality with the Agents CLI evaluation loop

    The Google Developers Blog demonstrated the eval loop of Agents CLI v1.8.0: eval generate runs test cases, eval grade scores them, eval compare compares two runs, eval analyze clusters failures, and eval optimize automatically optimizes prompts. The example baseline averaged 4.0/5, and after accidentally swapping in a chef persona prompt it dropped to 2.75; the evaluation caught this regression before it reached production.
