n8n now lets admins cap how many public API requests each API key can make, so a single runaway workflow hits its API key's limit instead of blocking other teams. Rate limiting is available from n8n 2.47.0 on every plan, on n8n Cloud and…
Congrats to Gemini 4 Hydrogen on their launch and it seems Anthropic’s IPO is well under way, but today’s headline was only ever going to be about one thing, the most earthshaking leadership change in AI (after Demis/Jeff/et al at Google…
The theme of day two of the AI Engineer Code Summit in San Francisco was increasing ambition using AI . And there have been few projects as ambitious as ArtCraft in the AI era. So far the fledgling company has released 17 open source…
Release: llm-gemini 0.37 Google launched Gemini 4 Hydrogen today - the lowest cost member of the Gemini 4 family. It's actually not too far off the price of its much bigger siblings, Carbon and Argon. I'm finding Gemini 4's pricing really…
Who should actually be responsible for building automation inside a company? Many organizations still answer that question the same way: a specialized team, usually small, usually stretched thin, building on behalf of everyone else. I…
Today was the “System One day” of the second annual AIE CODE event , and somehow everything aligned: Cloudflare’s Michelle Chen walked through their Clef and Clairic models Richard covered Diogo’s triumphant return to AIE talking about the…
Today at the AI Engineer Code Summit , the main theme was system one models — non-generative models that return structured choices, scores, or probabilities. They’re also typically much faster and cheaper than reasoning LLMs (a.k.a. system…
Gemini Decisions API Google join Jev and OpenAI in the decision model category with "Gemini Decision 1". This new model API is almost identical to Jev: it supports the same three types of questions (yes/no, choice, and rubric-scoring) and…
aws-emulator Finally, an official emulator from AWS to run tests against a local clone of their many different services without having to provision a paid API key to do so. It's written in Rust by a huge swarm of agents - 29,684 commits in…
Browse tools.simonwillison.net by tag I've been wanting a better way to browse my collection of vibe-coded tools (244 and counting) for a while. I had a few Fable 5.2 credits left over before my weekly reset so I set it to work using…
Anthropic's IPO roadshow video Anthropic kicked off their IPO roadshow yesterday, and their roadshow video has some previously unreleased information about how their business works. The section on "Approach to compute" with co-founder Tom…
Our usual bar for making a fundraise a title story these days is a decacorn ($10B) valuation. We missed Mercor’s $10B Series C last year when it had less than $500m in revenue, but knew we wouldn’t have to wait too long til the next round…
AI Engineer Code Summit kicked off today with a series of workshops, including from leading frontier labs OpenAI, Anthropic and Google DeepMind. I attended the OpenAI workshop, intriguingly titled “New Ways of Working with Codex” and…
A microservices architecture breaks an application into small, independent services that each handle a specific function and communicate through APIs. If one service fails, the others ideally keep running instead of taking down the entire…
Batch processing gets complicated with large loads. A workflow that breezes through 200 records might stop on 20,000. You’ll suddenly find yourself faced with memory limits, API quotas, and the question of what actually finished. The…
Release: llm-gemini 0.36 Gemini 4 Carbon was announced two weeks ago for "a subset of cyber defenders", but today it's available to everyone else . This is Google's best ever Gemini, priced at $2/million input and $10/million output at…
Today’s podcast comes from a real life mystery: We are big fans of Cloudflare’s developer platform, and Cloudflare Email is a convenient tool especially when all your domains are already on Cloudflare. So why do agents keep suggesting we…
Editor’s note: With this post, we are launching a new series focused on trying new models and products with unbiased reviews. Reach out with suggestions to tips@latent.space. Naive-N0.5-Flash is a new open-weights model built for AI coding…
Gemini 4 Carbon is out and it's now available in n8n. Google is calling it its strongest model yet, with big gains in coding, long-running agentic work and cybersecurity. In Google's results, it posts a 53.9% on AutomationBench, a…
Today we're releasing Nod as a research preview from n8n Labs, a new team within n8n that experiments with ideas outside our core product. Nod is a standalone app, separate from n8n, that runs on your computer. It's a personal agent with…
Introducing Our Smallest, Most Efficient Model: Muse Ember Meta AI just launched their entry in the Claude Haiku/GPT Luna category: Muse Ember, which they describe as: [...] our smallest and most efficient model designed for complex…
On Friday, we asked Jamin Ball what comes next for Anthropic’s IPO . On Monday the roadshow started and Anthropic shipped the long-anticipated next-version of Claude Fable and Mythos . Of course, it is the new top model in the world…
Claude Fable 5.2 pays close attention to who owns the code it works on. In Anthropic’s testing on small coding tasks, the model tended to add to the existing structure when the prompt said nothing about ownership or presented the code base…
Tool: Yonkers Rises I realized I didn't know where Yonkers was, so I looked it up on Google Maps and then, to help embed its location and shape in my head (and to try out Claude Fable 5.2's 3D modeling and animation skills), I prompted…
Release: llm-anthropic 0.31 Anthropic released Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 today. Fable 5.2 is currently ranked first on Artificial Analysis . Anthropic say it "solved two open problems in the physics of black holes", so clearly their…
Our house has a box room, full of boxes that we still haven't unpacked from our last move. A couple of weeks ago something in that room started intermittently beeping . The beeps were far enough apart that standing in the room and trying…
Before getting started, I wanted to thank my readers for making my new book, Co-Existence, a New York Times bestseller two weeks in a row. If you haven’t read it, you can get a copy here . I have had the chance to use the new Claude Fable…
This is our first Latent Space deep dive with an AI data company . In roughly a year, Handshake’s AI training business went from launch to $1 billion in gross annualized revenue . What are frontier labs buying at that scale? What evals are…

My comment on The Web Is More Than Enough, by Paul Ford — Hacker News. OK, this comment convinced me to give that a shot. Here's a thing I made in Three.js this morning - a Nudibranch themed Faberge Egg…
Most of the changes I make to my projects these days come in the form of PRs opened for me by Claude Code or Codex. The PR is my unit of work - I use them to bundle commits together, iterating on them until a feature is complete, document…
Research: parse_number() as a SQLite extension: C vs Rust I was out walking the dog when I got curious about how easy/difficult it would be to write a SQLite C extension that adds a parse_number() function for turning strings like…
The AI Engineer YouTube channel just crossed one million subscribers . Thank you to everyone who’s watched a talk, sent one to a teammate, or put something they learned into production. For this special, we wanted to sit down with someone…
What do you assign when a coding agent can finish last year’s homework in one prompt? In the second run of Stanford’s CS146S, Mihail Eric brought open-source maintainers into the course. Students have to learn an unfamiliar repo, propose a…
This Verified Node Spotlight is a guest post written by Nicolas Fry, CEO of TurboDocx. The deal is closed and the contract is ready. It's been sitting in someone's inbox for three days, waiting for an "OK, send it." Once it's finally…
datasette #3046: Don't serve link: rel=next HTTP headers to Firefox for HTML pages I was looking at the Firefox network panel today when I noticed that requests to a Datasette table page were triggering an HTTP prefetch to the next page of…
My comment on Terry Pratchett's Study — Hacker News. Terry Pratchett once wrote about the concept of "horizontal wealth". Vertical wealth is where you spend money on rich people stuff - yachts and suchlike. Horizontal wealth is where you…
It’s a relatively quiet news day, and the AI market rout we referenced obliquely two days ago has deepened, though it might be leveling off not even halfway into bear market territory (-10% on Nasdaq, not -20%). That said, everything being…
The products aren't good enough to sell people on the costs. You cannot tell people that you have to listen to the whine of a data center in their backyard for AI overviews and some of the most hilarious deep fake slop in history. It's not…
Fabian Theis has been one of the key players in the various iterations of the Virtual Cell concept and initiatives. It is not hyperbole at all to say that his lab has been pushing the frontier of algorithms to understand multi-scale…
