15. KPop Method Pushes Ring-2.6-1T Past 76 on SWE-bench Verified
X: AntLing AGI (@AntLingAGI)
The team introduced KPop, a method for stabilizing agent reinforcement learning training of large-scale MoE models. It uses an adaptive masking mechanism based on binary KL divergence to replace the fixed-ratio mask in the previous IcePop method, dynamically adjusting based on the training-inference mismatch during training. This improvement allowed the Ring-2.6-1T model to achieve over 76 points on SWE-bench Verified through pure RL training, without modifying infrastructure or routing replay.
Tips & Insights
16. Sundar Pichai on AI, the Future of Search, and How the Web is Changing
The Verge：AI（RSS）
Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai gave an interview after Google I/O, looking back at the company’s strategic restructuring and executive changes in response to ChatGPT. The conversation focused on the new Gemini models and their integration into products, including the new intelligent search box and the Gemini Spark agent platform, aimed at shifting search from returning results to initiating tasks. Pichai discussed the ongoing impact of these changes on the open web, responded to the host’s earlier concept of “Google Zero” (the possibility of website traffic from Google dropping to zero), and mentioned that Google is using YouTube videos to train models to change how video search and indexing work. Finally, he responded to Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis’s views on…
17. “Lobster Dad” Peter Open Sources skill-cleaner, Giving AI Agent Skills a “Health Checkup”
IT Home (RSS)
“Lobster Dad” Peter open-sourced the skill-cleaner tool for diagnosing and optimizing AI agent skill prompts. The tool includes 5 core functions: skill prompt budget auditing, duplicate skill detection, unused skill screening, skill root directory auditing, and description optimization. Its scripts use standard token budget accounting logic, aiming to reduce the impact of verbose descriptions on token budgets and context windows. User practice shows that trimming skill descriptions from over 90 words to under 40 words can improve the accuracy of agent skill selection.
18. Gemini Omni Video Prompting Guide
X：Google AI (@GoogleAI)
Google released a guide for using the video generation capabilities of its multimodal model Gemini Omni. The model can be experienced via the Gemini app, Google Flow, and other platforms. The guide includes five prompting tips: leverage the model’s existing real-world knowledge with concise descriptions; precisely control text rendering and typography in videos; use professional camera instructions (such as push-ins, pull-outs, pans, and tilts) to direct scenes like a cinematographer; efficiently modify videos through iterative editing; and adjust character motion pacing or emotions directly during generation. The core idea is guiding the model with precise prompts to generate complex and controllable video content.
19. Human vs. AI Division of Labor: Education, Consulting, and Literary Prize Controversy

I wrote a new article exploring which human qualities we need to preserve and which can be handed over to AI, touching on experiments in education and consulting, as well as the recent controversy over literary awards.
20. Project Luxo: Crossing the Uncanny Valley of AI Media
Runway: News (Web)
Through Project Luxo, Runway found that AI-generated video has crossed the “uncanny valley.” They showed AI short films like The Rogue and ad samples to creative industry professionals, with evaluations showing that audiences are beginning to focus on the story itself rather than technical flaws. All works were produced by solo teams, with production times ranging from 3 weeks to 4 hours. Runway believes this marks the maturation of AI media — the crossing is achieved when the technology is good enough to become “invisible,” allowing audiences to immerse themselves in the story.
21. How We Contain Claude Across Different Products with Isolation Controls
Anthropic: Engineering (Postmortem + Engineering Practice · Web)
Anthropic controls Claude agent deployment risks through a triple mechanism addressing user misuse, model anomalous behavior, and external attacks. Its protection strategy focuses on three layers: limiting the agent’s operating environment through sandboxes, virtual machines, and network egress controls; guiding behavior through system prompts and model training; and implementing granular permission management for external content such as MCP servers and third-party plugins. The article uses Claude Code, claude.ai, and Claude Cowork as examples to explain how different products design corresponding isolation architectures.
