    How TELUS Digital Used ElevenAgents Outbound Calling Agents to Cut Early Churn by More Than Half

    TELUS Digital built an outbound voice agent based on ElevenAgents that proactively calls customers who have just activated home internet, resulting in a 30-day churn rate for customers who received the call that is less than half that of new customers overall. The agent can disclose its AI identity, explain the first bill, guide customers to self-service tools, and remind them of bundle discounts, and can authenticate customers during the call via SMS verification code and read real-time billing data through an API. TELUS Digital selected ElevenAgents after evaluating options from November 2025 to February 2026 against five criteria: voice expressiveness, agent framework flexibility, real-time emotional adjustment, enterprise security and compliance, and response latency.

    Ayì's Paraphrase of the Altman Interview: Tens of Millions of Dollars in Compute to Crack Math Problems and the Agent Team Security View

    Ayì paraphrases Stripe founder John Collison's 52-minute interview with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, saying Altman mentioned that an internal new model had cracked frontier math problems, with the proof related to the Navier-Stokes equations consuming on the order of $10 million in compute. Altman also said he prefers Agent Teams rather than swarms to describe multi-agent collaboration, and believes sandboxes can hardly contain superintelligence, so one can only rely on internal monitoring and alignment. He also criticized Silicon Valley's current AI narrative as bad salesmanship, insisting on iterative deployment to avoid a small elite deciding the future for the whole world.

    Alibaba Cloud Open-Sources "AI Agent Handbook," an Enterprise-Grade Full Lifecycle Handbook for Agents

    Alibaba Cloud has open-sourced the "AI Agent Handbook," covering five parts—architecture, building, running, governance, and tuning—with Harness at its core to move enterprise Agents from pilot to governable production. The 2026 survey cited in the handbook shows that about 46% of enterprises have completed or are in the process of development, while only about 18% have actually deployed to production; about 90% have context and memory needs, about 63% have multi-model routing and cost governance needs, and fewer than about 8% have trajectory-based automated evaluation. Those paying attention to or implementing MCP total about 37%, and only about 9% have private deployments within the enterprise.

    Matt Palmer demonstrates using Cursor Cloud Agent to generate a UI motion video against real Slack

    Matt Palmer demonstrated opening Chrome and real Slack on the Linux remote desktop of a Cursor Cloud Agent, having the Agent generate a Slack UI motion video with code, and then iterating and revising after checking easing and motion patterns against the real interface. He broke the process down into an inner loop (the Agent does the work, checks against the real thing, and fixes) and an outer loop (a human provides references, preferences, and permissions and accepts the output), and proposed the Do→Codify→Generalize ladder, packaging one success into a Skill and then generalizing it. He emphasized that Slack was not decompiled; he merely gave the Agent a reference and asked it to extract visual patterns by comparison.

    Vercel CEO Explains Vercel CI in Detail: Infrastructure, Turborepo Integration, and Agentic CI

    Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch published a post explaining how Vercel CI solves the AI coding bottleneck, in three layers: fast and stable infrastructure (20 clusters worldwide, running millions of microVMs per day), Turborepo integration (automatically computing the dependency graph and skipping and caching existing work), and Agentic CI. He said that vercel ci in the CLI is the first step; agents can now inspect, abort, trigger, and replay CI, and Vercel Agent can assist with optimization. More capabilities will be added later, giving CI engineer-like judgment. The official Vercel account previously announced that Vercel CI had entered beta, with CI in internal repositories sped up 2-6×, and optimized for agents via Vercel MCP and the CLI.

    Snaptrude launches a building design Agent that can generate LOD 400 construction-level models directly from a site

    Snaptrude has launched a building design Agent that can start from a site or a brief to generate LOD 400 construction-level models including structure, MEP and complete drawings, and supports exporting back to existing software while preserving component families. During early access, more than 2,000 designers have run over 25,000 tasks, and the company has also released the AECBench benchmark along with its first batch of results. Rohan Paul relayed that most architectural AI stops at the level of form, whereas this model carries actual components that can be directly manufactured and installed.

    Shao Meng: Most domestic Video Agents have been reduced to token relay stations

    Shao Meng believes that although domestic Video Agent teams such as LibTV, TapNow, Flova, Pexo, and Medeo emphasize barriers like ecosystem, Agent architecture, and industry know-how in financing roadshows, after all their work they may have all ended up as token relay stations. He speculates that if these websites supported BYOK, the cost for users to bring their own video generation model API Key would be lower than consuming Credits on the site, and even lower when the API Key has a discount. He suggests using REA or building your own Video Agent from scratch paired with discounted API Keys to reduce costs; for users creating video content on TikTok, Ins, and Douyin, the money saved would be considerable.

    OpenAI Software Engineer Interview Process Retrospective: Including an Optional Agentic Coding Round

    A 2026 OpenAI SWE interview retrospective shows that the process includes a recruiter screen, two technical screens of about 60 minutes each on the same day, a take-home assignment of about 48 hours, a technical deep dive that probes the code line by line, and 4 onsite rounds. The onsite coding includes a progressive multi-part problem (such as token-level streaming diff and rollback), and the system design question is "Design ChatGPT," involving GPU allocation and autoscaling under non-stationary traffic. There is also an optional fifth round, Agentic Coding, in the beta stage, which requires using an AI coding agent to handle problems in large codebases that are difficult to address by hand.
