Building an AI-powered contract intelligence platform with Amazon Quick and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Publisher preview

You’re a director of contracting, responsible for hundreds, maybe thousands, of vendor contracts. Each one is packed with critical data: contract values, expiration dates, signing status, and key contacts. With that information locked inside PDFs, you and your team spend hours manually extracting it, maintaining spreadsheets, and fielding the same recurring questions: “Which vendor are we spending the most with?” or “Which contracts are about to expire?” So you turn to AI chat tools and enterprise Q&A solutions. You upload a contract, ask questions in natural language, and for a…

How Condé Nast built multimodal video discovery with Amazon Bedrock

Publisher preview

Condé Nast’s editorial teams had no fast way to do multimodal video discovery. They were spending an average of 250 minutes per content discovery task, manually scrubbing through a library of more than 140,000 videos. They relied on titles and descriptions to find relevant clips. In a media environment where speed-to-market directly determines revenue capture, this process created measurable operational drag across brands such as Vogue, GQ, Vanity Fair, and Wired. The core problem was structural: Existing search tools can’t look inside video content. Teams depended on institutional knowledge to…

NVIDIA Kumo Tabular Sets a New Accuracy-Efficiency Frontier for Tabular Prediction

Publisher preview

NVIDIA Kumo Tabular, part of the NVIDIA Kumo Structured model collection, is an open foundation model for tabular data now available on Hugging Face. Given a table of labeled rows, it predicts the labels of new rows in a single forward pass, with no training, no tuning, and no feature engineering, for both classification and regression. It was pretrained only on artificial data, comes in three sizes (28M to 215M parameters), runs through our open-source library, and is released under the OpenMDW-1.1 license for commercial use. It ranks first on…

Instinct founder said more than 50% of transactions on the platform are travel-related

Publisher preview

Almost every AI tool’s demo shows a user sparring with the assistant to book travel, as it seems to be the most frequent use case. The viral Instinct agent is no different, as it sees more than 50% of transactions on the platform for travel, the company’s founder, Noah Shinn, said in a recent podcast. In an interview with investor Patrick O’Shaughnessy, Shinn also mentioned that the invite-only platform is approaching a billion dollars in annual transactions. He didn’t specify what the calculation behind this rate is, though. “People who…

OpenAI says planned GPT-6.1 is too insecure to release

Publisher preview

OpenAI says it has canceled plans to release its updated GPT-6.1 model next month as it continues to investigate what testing shows to be a regression in terms of safety compared to previous models. The move, first reported by The Wall Street Journal late Monday and later confirmed in OpenAI statements to the press, reflects what OpenAI Head of Safety Systems Saachi Jain said was a “trade off” between performance and security seen when testing the now-scrapped model. Jain said GPT-6.1 was better than previous models at sticking with difficult…

Anthropic’s IPO pitch includes a warning about human extinction

Publisher preview

The Claude maker warns its own models could resist shutdowns and cause catastrophic harm. Anthropic has formally warned investors that its technology may pose “existential risks to humanity” in a long-awaited initial public offering prospectus circulated with a small group of partners in recent days. The nearly $1 trillion AI start-up led by Dario Amodei devoted almost a third of its lengthy S-1 filing to detailing “risk factors,” including the potential of increasingly advanced AI models to manipulate, blackmail, and exhibit other unpredictable behaviors. Anthropic outlined more prosaic risks, including…

Meta’s Muse AI sent a YouTuber’s address to a stranger

Here’s what led to the viral post about AI mismanaging deals on Facebook Marketplace. Here’s what led to the viral post about AI mismanaging deals on Facebook Marketplace. Tech YouTuber Matt Robb says that Muse gave out his home address to a total stranger this weekend, after authorizing the bot to handle his Facebook Marketplace account. That’s despite Meta placing great emphasis on the security features of Muse when it launched the personal AI agent earlier this month as it tries to catch up with competing AI providers like Anthropic…

With Dazzle, Marissa Mayer bets your camera roll has more info on your life than your inbox

Publisher preview

When former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer earlier this month told me she was finally ready to unveil Dazzle, the personal AI assistant that raised an $8 million seed round last December, I couldn’t help but wonder if she’s playing copycat to Meta’s Muse, Instinct, and the wave of similar tools that have flooded the market over the past month. But when Mayer finally gave me a demo, Dazzle proved it’s taking a different approach. Instead of building context about you from text-heavy apps like email, calendars and shopping histories, Dazzle’s…

Meta is expanding its AI agent Muse to small businesses

Publisher preview

Meta announced on Tuesday that it’s expanding its AI agent Muse to small businesses and adding new integrations including Shopify, Dropbox, Slack, and more. The tech giant says the agent can help owners run their business and find new customers. By plugging Muse into the software that small business owners are already using to manage sales, operations, and marketing, Meta is betting that an AI agent with context of a company’s whole operation will be more useful than a standalone chatbot, as it continues to compete against rivals like OpenAI…

Getting the Source Right, Not Just the Fact: Source-Aware Verification for MCP Agents

Publisher preview

Our latest paper, ProvenanceGuard: Source-Aware Factuality Verification for MCP-Based LLM Agents (read it on Hugging Face, or on arXiv in the meantime), targets that gap. The failure mode we care about is one we call cross-source conflation: a claim that is true somewhere in the evidence, but attributed to the wrong source. A source-blind verifier may pass it, because the fact does exist in the pool. A source-aware verifier should not. Consider a customer support agent that answers, "According to the account record, this plan includes a 30-day refund window."…

Interview: Firefox's chief on why he hopes a redesign will help win users from Chrome

Publisher preview

Mozilla’s Ajit Varma explains why a redesign suits the fight for the open web. Today, the Firefox 157 update will roll out a redesign of the web browser across desktop and mobile platforms. The team that made it hopes it will help expand the browser’s audience beyond privacy-conscious techies and open-web or open source advocates to a broader audience who might simply pick the browser because they prefer its user experience over competitors like Chrome, Edge, and Safari. In advance of the redesign’s launch, I spent half an hour chatting…
