A hands-on review of Google's Agent Development Kit - the open-source framework for building multi-agent AI systems, with a look at its strengths, limitations, and how it stacks up against LangGraph and CrewAI.
DeepMind Maps Six Attack Traps Targeting AI Agents
A Google DeepMind paper introduces the first systematic taxonomy of adversarial traps that can hijack autonomous AI agents - and every category already has working proof-of-concept exploits.
Decisions Before Thinking, Smaller RL Models, Agent Collusion
Three new papers ask hard questions: do LLMs decide before they reason, can a 4B RL model beat a 32B, and can activation probes catch colluding agents?
Grok 4.20 - xAI's Multi-Agent Reasoning Flagship
Grok 4.20 is xAI's current flagship LLM with a 2M-token context window, native multi-agent mode, and reasoning toggle at $2.00/M input tokens.
Augment Code Intent Review: Orchestration Over Code
Augment Code Intent takes a spec-first, multi-agent approach to coding that challenges whether we still need IDEs at all.
