Six stories on physical AI infrastructure—from Foxglove’s agentic search to Limitless Labs’ $20M Series A.

Granite 4.2 reserves agentic RL for the 8B and 30B. Pipette scores the configuration, not the model. MetaRoCE skips the reorder buffer entirely, and GEN-1.5 adapts in ten gradient steps.

A mesh that authorizes offline, a harness where the control loop is a plugin, a browser with no Chromium. AND: Shepherd forks the process and filesystem together, 5× faster than Docker.
A checkpoint reaching native C++ without ONNX, OIDC claims sealed into Biscuit tokens, and a 300M drafter running nine tokens ahead. The honest range on that last one is 1.04x to 3.18x, because speedup tracks acceptance.

3B active out of 30B. 4-bit weights in 24 GB at 1.0% degradation. An escalation router sending 7% of calls upstream. Six releases, zero new base models, and one paper arguing the metrics underneath all of it are broken.
