    Microsoft Copilot adds GPT-6.1 Sol and Claude Sonnet 5.5 models

    AIMicrosoft Copilot begins rolling out OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Sol and Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 5.5 today, joining Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol added earlier this month. Users can pick the model suited to each task, with Work IQ grounding responses in their files, meetings, and chats within existing permissions. The rollout starts today in Copilot Cowork and Copilot Studio, with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Chat following in phases over the coming week.

    Extropic uses Prime Intellect to post-train Qwen3.6-35B-A3B for thermodynamic ML

    AIExtropic post-trained Qwen3.6-35B-A3B with Prime Intellect for thermodynamic ML research, nearly tripling its held-out eval results in about 100 GRPO steps. The team built a custom RL environment with verifiers and trained on Hosted Training, Prime Sandboxes, and Prime Inference. This let Extropic avoid managing multi-node GPU infrastructure and focus on research.

    LlamaIndex launches Extract v2.5 document extraction agents with improved accuracy

    AILlamaIndex introduced Extract v2.5, a series of agents tuned for document extraction across cost-effective, agentic, and agentic plus tiers. The company reports the agents outperform Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol while costing 30% to 4x less, with accuracy gains on long lists (86.1% to 95.5%), multi-page records (85.5% to 96.5%), and scanned forms (90.9% to 95.7%) on its agentic tier. The release adds advanced citations with bounding boxes and structural reasoning, and the agents are available on LlamaParse.

    Hugging Face clarifies ml-intern options, one trained model for $6

    AIHugging Face says ml-intern is an open-source ML engineering and research harness usable free on local setups, and it is also hosted on Hugging Chat with no-code access. A second hosted option runs on Hugging Face infrastructure, where ml-intern selects the cheapest GPU for a task so models can be trained for a few dollars. MaziyarPanahi reportedly trained a model by prompting alone for $6.60 on an NVIDIA A100 in 16 minutes.

    Comfy Agent Launches in ComfyUI Cloud, Desktop Version Coming Weeks Later

    AIComfy Agent, an AI agent that builds, runs, and iterates on workflows from plain-language requests, is now available in Comfy Cloud and will arrive in Comfy Desktop in a few weeks. It can work directly on the canvas alongside users, support up to 5 parallel chats, and use public or private skills. Comfy Agent is in beta and uses existing Comfy Credits.

    Google launches Guided Vision in Gemini Live for blind and low-vision users

    AIGoogle is launching Guided Vision in Gemini Live on compatible Android devices, letting users share their camera for spoken descriptions and follow-up questions. The model was trained with Aira on tens of thousands of hours of visual interpretation and tested by more than 1,000 members of Aira's Trusted Tester network. The feature is not a medical device, mobility aid, or navigation tool, and it requires Android 9 or later.

    Why it matters: The launch shows how a real-time visual model was trained and tested with blind and low-vision users, a practical reference for accessibility-focused AI design.
