Battle Drones - a vibe coded RTS with audio-based multiplayer
My latest vibe coded game experiment is a Command & Conquer style RTS (Real Time Strategy) game called Battle Drones (play it here). Unlike my previous experiments, this one is actually fun to play. I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit that I got there by telling Claude to "Make it a LOT more fun". It also supports multiplayer between nearby devices using audio to synchronize game state! Here's what I've built so far, and some of the things I learned along the way. Battle Drones How I built this v1: the initial prototype v2: full sprites v3: varied terrain v4: the fun update v5: Battle Drones goes 3D v8: Archipelago v10: Goliath, and agent battles Agent battles v11: Random Maps v12: Multiplayer via sound Some thoughts Update: Online multiplayer support Battle Drones My initial goal was to bui

Workflow context for AI agents with Smartsheet MCP on AWS
The Smartsheet Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server lets AI agents read, update, and act on live data. This post shows two ways to connect it on AWS: Amazon Quick for business teams and Kiro for developers, so your agents can work with Smartsheet without switching tools.
From data to decisions: Conversational supply chain intelligence with Amazon Quick and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Enterprise supply chains are data-rich but insight-poor, with the data to decide scattered across ERP, monitoring, procurement, and email. This post shows how Amazon Bedrock AgentCore exposes those systems as a governed tool layer, and how Amazon Quick turns them into one conversational experience for business users, with a deploy-it-yourself walkthrough.
Fine-tuning GPT-OSS-20B for multilingual reasoning on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod
Learn how we fine-tuned GPT-OSS-20B for multilingual reasoning on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod, and how to decide between supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with GRPO. SFT took reasoning-language accuracy from 22% to 100%, and GRPO added measurable gains where headroom existed.
Meta tries to scapegoat staff who downloaded torrents to spare execs
Meta argues nobody “decided” to pirate books to train AI.
How Octave built a secure multi-tenant AI foundation on Amazon Bedrock
Octave built a secure, multi-tenant AI foundation on Amazon Bedrock, using Cohere Embed v4 for embeddings and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore for isolated agent execution, to power a Complaint Triage Assistant that searches 2 billion regulated documents without crossing tenant boundaries.
Access OpenAI GPT models on Amazon Bedrock from Canada with cross-Region inference
Canadian organizations can now access OpenAI GPT-5.6, GPT-6, and GPT-6.1 models on Amazon Bedrock from the Canada (Central) and Canada West (Calgary) Regions using cross-Region inference. This post covers the models and inference profiles, how to set up permissions, and how to invoke them with the Responses, Chat Completions, and Converse APIs.
Discover tools at runtime with AWS Agent Registry
Hardcoded tool wiring breaks down as an agent's catalog grows from a handful of tools to hundreds. This post walks through a runtime Discover, Instantiate, Execute loop built on AWS Agent Registry, where an orchestrator discovers MCP servers and A2A agents through semantic search at runtime instead of compiling every tool at build time.

Called to serve: Tech, research, and positive impact
Lab Director Chris White has worked on research challenges with real-world implications—from new approaches to wartime data analysis to tools for combating human trafficking. He talks to program manager Weishung Liu about the influences that led to the work and more. The post Called to serve: Tech, research, and positive impact appeared first on Microsoft Research.
The new economics of enterprise AI
Imagine your company just discovered electricity. At first only a few machines run on it, and nobody worries about efficiency — consumption is low and the value is obvious. But once electricity becomes infrastructure, every process depends on it, and the question changes from “can we use it?” to “how efficiently are we using it?”…

AI adoption by industry shows what other sectors can learn
The current narrative around artificial intelligence in the workplace is largely driven by Silicon Valley. But treating the tech sector as an island misses the actual trends in technology adoption–tech is just the first industry in line. As generative AI and automation tools mature, the shifts currently reshaping software engineering and product management will inevitably…
European Leaders Turn to NVIDIA Vera CPUs to Build Local Infrastructure
Nebius and Nscale are among global technology partners looking to NVIDIA Vera CPUs to build the next wave of infrastructure. Their momentum reflects rapid advancements in agentic computing. Agents do more than generate answers: they retrieve information, run software tools, execute code and evaluate results. Each step depends on fast CPU processing. Vera accelerates that […]
A visit to Samsung’s massive new semiconductor hub
Generative AI models run on powerful chips known as GPUs, which depend on stacks of specialized memory chips packaged with the processor. To meet growing demand for memory, Samsung is building a massive new semiconductor manufacturing complex in Pyeongtaek, South Korea. Three fabs already operate around the clock, and a fourth is coming online. Construction…
