Weekends are for research. Inside OptimAI labs, we’ve been pushing agents beyond the screen. A first glimpse of OptimAI Prime. Not just agents that think, but agents that operate. Learning through reinforcement, coordinating across the network, and executing in real-world environments. From digital workflows → to physical actions. This is the next step for the agent-native internet.🤖 Still early. But already in motion.

Today I’m excited to introduce micro1 Intelligence, the world’s most advanced platform for training frontier AI models. Achieving AGI is bottlenecked by one main thing: high-quality data. Data based on real-world environments that capture human expert workflows, complex decision-making, and reward signals models need to learn. With micro1 Intelligence, frontier labs can train on RL environments across every subject matter all in one place.

We took a short break from robotics to build a human-level agent to play Competitive Pokémon. Partially observed. Stochastic. Long-horizon. Now mastered with Offline RL + Transformers. Our agent, trained on 475k+ human battles, hits the top 10% on Pokémon Showdown leaderboards. No search or heuristics, just sequence modeling. Today, we're open-sourcing our Metamon platform with our algorithms, data, and environments: 🌐 We are excited to see how our work accelerates research on building generally capable AI agents, and more importantly, inspires the next generation of Pokémon trainers!

Loved this 22-minute talk on continual learning for AI agents. Must watch for anyone looking to get agents performant and into production. Credit: Soheil Feizi at AI Engineer • Agent learning can happen at three layers: the model (weights), the harness (prompts, tools, skills, code, workflows), and memory (session or persistent). • Two fundamental challenges: (1) getting feedback, meaning how do we know if the agent did well and what it should have done instead, and (2) acting on that feedback, meaning deciding which layer or component to change and how. • Feedback sources differ by stage: In development you have benchmarks with evaluators that score pass/fail. In production you only have logs, which can be judged either automatically (LLMs or code analyzing the log, which is scalable) or by human experts (low volume but critical domain knowledge). • Logs plus feedback aren't enough because they're not testable: A single log with feedback is one observation of what happened. You need to lift it into a replayable learning environment, a simulation with tools, users, and defined evaluators, so candidate fixes can be run, verified, and compared. • Three ways to optimize the agent, with tradeoffs: Model-layer updates (SFT, RL post-training like DPO/GRPO, LoRA) are expensive and need benchmarks and evaluators. Harness updates (trace-to-harness coding agents, prompt search like GEPA) are flexible but either untestable and "vibe-based" or benchmark-dependent. Memory updates (fact storage like Letta/Mem0, skill distillation) are cheapest and fastest but usually unverified. • A good learning engine makes "the smallest durable change at the right layer" of the agent. • Verifiable continual learning (VCL): Improve an agent from its own experience where every fix is proven to help and proven to break nothing that already worked. It requires an executable test (replayable failure), a measured delta (score before and after), and regression tests (prior tests still pass). • Four principles of practical VCL: Replayability (turn one-off failures into rerunnable tests), holisticness (one failure can have causes in memory, prompts, tools, workflow, or model, so route the fix to the right layer), lifelongness (fix new failures subject to no regression on past environments, with regression handled inside the optimization loop rather than post-hoc), and efficiency (the loop must run frequently and cheaply, without scaling linearly as past environments accumulate). • Three takeaways: (1) Agent continual learning isn't necessarily fine-tuning; many useful updates live in the harness and memory layers. (2) Production logs are not learning environments and must be transformed into replayable ones. (3) The frontier is regression-aware improvement: fixing new failures while verifying you don't break old ones.

CONTEXT ENGINEERING > PROMPT ENGINEERING Everyone is obsessed with writing better prompts. The next generation of AI builders is focused on context engineering instead. • Prompt engineering shapes the question. Context engineering shapes everything the AI sees. • Great prompts can't save an agent missing critical context, memory, or tools. • AI failures often come from missing information, not weak models. • Context engineering combines prompts, memory, RAG, state management, and tool access into one system. What powers effective AI agents? → Memory: Remembers preferences, past interactions, and ongoing tasks. → State Management: Tracks progress across multi-step workflows. → RAG: Retrieves only the most relevant information when needed. → Tools: Connects AI to APIs, databases, code execution, and real-world actions. → Dynamic Prompts: Enriches instructions with live context at runtime. The key insight: Prompt Engineering = Better Questions Context Engineering = Better Systems The future of AI isn't building smarter prompts. It's building smarter environments for AI to think, remember, retrieve, and act.

When you enter VaderAI into KREDO here's what comes back. Reputation Score: 78 Vader_AI_ is an AI-powered benchmark infrastructure agent focused on vulnerability assessment, detection, explanation, and remediation for large language models (LLMs) and smart contract environments. Its core competency lies in providing interpretable, reproducible evaluation metrics for AI security and model robustness. - Core Technology: Benchmarking dataset, evaluation rubrics, scoring tools, visualized results - Key Metrics: Human-evaluated data, public datasets, interpretable scoring, confidence interval reporting Vader_AI_ distinguishes itself by offering a publicly released, human-evaluated benchmark specifically tailored to vulnerability-aware AI agents in the crypto/Web3 ecosystem. Its comprehensive design includes not only an expansive dataset but also detailed rubrics and automated evaluation tools, ensuring that performance metrics for LLM-driven agents are transparent and reproducible. This infrastructural approach enables organizations and developers to identify both strengths and deficiencies in agent reasoning as it relates to security, aligning AI assessments closely with real-world exploit risk and defense scenarios. A clear success of Vader_AI_ is the rigorous transparency in its release methodology: confidence intervals are visualized alongside all results, and the benchmark provides interpretable outputs that directly support both developers and auditors in understanding where and why an agent's decision logic may falter. The agent excels in creating a standardized baseline to compare AI-powered systems, directly addressing the fragmented nature of prior evaluation methodologies in this domain. However, limitations exist in the extent to which Vader_AI_ can capture emergent, unknown exploit patterns or generalize to novel blockchain environments beyond its existing dataset. Its effectiveness is highest when used as part of a continuous, iterative assessment framework, rather than as a one-time gatekeeper. Furthermore, the accuracy of its insights is partly dependent on the ongoing contribution and maintenance of high-quality, up-to-date human-evaluated datasets. In summary, Vader_AI_ represents an essential component in the push toward trustworthy, measurable AI in crypto applications. Its approach is especially well-suited for projects prioritizing provable agent reliability and onchain security alignment, though its results are best seen as one critical input among several in a comprehensive risk management pipeline. Wondering how other agents score? Just try. 👉

Today, we’re excited to announce our $50M Series B, led by Greenfield Partners (formerly TPG Capital), with participation from Lightspeed and Notable Capital. 🚀 At PatronusAI, we develop simulations and evals to train and improve AI. The first phase of AI was built on static benchmarks, but that era is over now. As agents are used to solve longer and longer tasks, they need to practice in dynamic, living worlds to get better. Simulations are the critical infrastructure powering this next phase. As a company, we’re behind the most influential research and products in AI evaluation, like FinanceBench, Lynx, and Percival. And things have moved at the speed of light since. ⚡ We partner with the world's leading frontier AI labs and enterprises, and our revenue has grown more than 15x over the past year. Additionally, today, we’re introducing a preview of the first Digital World Model for AI agent training and simulation: Patronus-DWM. Digital World Models are language diffusion world models that predict realistic environment behaviors and steer agent actions across digital workflows. Just as physical world models predict how objects move through space, we’re developing the equivalent for the digital world: predicting how agents act in digital workflows, then using that to scale the creation of high-quality training data for LLMs. Digital World Models help us push the frontier of ultra long horizon workflows, and unlock a new class of self-improving RL environments. This is our scalable approach to simulating all of the world’s intelligence. The round was also joined by Datadog, Inc., Samsung Ventures, Gokul Rajaram, Factorial Capital, and a large cohort of amazing AI leaders and researchers across Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind, NVIDIA, Recursive, and more. ✨ It has been the ride of a lifetime. But we’re just getting started. The best is yet to come. "Do not go gentle into that good night, Rage, rage against the dying of the light" - Dylan Thomas (1954)

Finance Agent Benchmark v2 is here. Finance is one of the most lucrative applications of AI where much of the busy work could be automated. That’s why we rebuilt our Finance Agent Benchmark to push frontier models even further. We designed V2 to better reflect what financial analysts actually do: refined taxonomy reflecting real workflows, an improved harness with more tools, and jury-based evaluation. The result: no model cracks 52%. Would you trust a financial analyst who’s only correct half the time?

Today, we're joined by Nikita Rudin, co-founder and CEO of Flexion to discuss the gap between current robotic capabilities and what’s required to deploy fully autonomous robots in the real world. Nikita explains how reinforcement learning and simulation have driven rapid progress in robot locomotion—and why locomotion is still far from “solved.” We dig into the sim2real gap, and how adding visual inputs introduces noise and significantly complicates sim-to-real transfer. We also explore the debate between end-to-end models and modular approaches, and why separating locomotion, planning, and semantics remains a pragmatic approach today. Nikita also introduces the concept of "real-to-sim", which uses real-world data to refine simulation parameters for higher fidelity training, discusses how reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and teleoperation data are combined to train robust policies for both quadruped and humanoid robots, and introduces Flexion's hierarchical approach that utilizes pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for high-level task orchestration with Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and low-level whole-body trackers. Finally, Nikita shares the behind-the-scenes in humanoid robot demos, his take on reinforcement learning in simulation versus the real world, the nuances of reward tuning, and offers practical advice for researchers and practitioners looking to get started in robotics today. 🗒️ For the full list of resources for this episode, visit the show notes page: 📖 CHAPTERS =============================== 00:00 - Introduction 04:07 - Is robot locomotion solved? 06:04 - Sim-to-real gap 08:58 - Adding semantics to policies 09:42 - Modular vs end-to-end architectures 10:29 - Planner model 12:21 - Adapting RL techniques from quadrupeds to humanoids 15:39 - Behind robot demos 18:09 - Humanoid robots in home environments 22:03 - Training approach 23:56 - VLA models 27:59 - Closing the sim-to-real gap 32:55 - Task orchestration using VLMs 36:38 - Tool use 38:10 - Model hierarchy 43:37 - Simulator versus simulation environment 44:57 - Combining imitation learning and reinforcement learning 46:42 - RL in real world versus RL in simulation 52:58 - Reward tuning and value functions in robotics 56:38 - Predictions 1:00:10 - Humanoids, quadropeds, and wheeled platforms 1:02:45 - Advice, recommended robot kits, and community pla

Finally, Nikita shares the behind-the-scenes in humanoid robot demos, his take on reinforcement learning in simulation versus the real world, the nuances of reward tuning, and offers practical advice for researchers and practitioners looking to get started in robotics today. 🗒️ For the full list of resources for this episode, visit the show notes page: 📖 CHAPTERS =============================== 00:00 - Introduction 04:07 - Is robot locomotion solved? 06:04 - Sim-to-real gap 08:58 - Adding semantics to policies 09:42 - Modular vs end-to-end architectures 10:29 - Planner model 12:21 - Adapting RL techniques from quadrupeds to humanoids 15:39 - Behind robot demos 18:09 - Humanoid robots in home environments 22:03 - Training approach 23:56 - VLA models 27:59 - Closing the sim-to-real gap 32:55 - Task orchestration using VLMs 36:38 - Tool use 38:10 - Model hierarchy 43:37 - Simulator versus simulation environment 44:57 - Combining imitation learning and reinforcement learning 46:42 - RL in real world versus RL in simulation 52:58 - Reward tuning and value functions in robotics 56:38 - Predictions 1:00:10 - Humanoids, quadropeds, and wheeled platforms 1:02:45 - Advice, recommended robot kits, and community pla

Today, we’re excited to announce our $50M Series B, led by Greenfield Partners, with participation from Lightspeed and Notable Capital. 🚀 At Patronus AI, we develop simulations and evals to train and improve AI. The first phase of AI was built on static benchmarks, but that era is over. As agents are used to solve longer and longer tasks, they need to practice in dynamic, living worlds to get better. Simulations are the critical infrastructure powering this next phase. As a company, we’re behind the most influential research and products in AI evaluation, like FinanceBench, Lynx, and Percival. And things have moved at the speed of light since.⚡ We partner with the world's leading frontier AI labs and enterprises, and our revenue has grown more than 15x over the past year. Additionally, today, we’re introducing a preview of the first Digital World Model for AI agent training and simulation: Patronus-DWM. Digital World Models are language diffusion world models that predict realistic environment behaviors and steer agent actions across digital workflows. Just as physical world models predict how objects move through space, we’re developing the equivalent for the digital world: predicting how agents act in digital workflows, then using that to scale the creation of high-quality training data for LLMs. Digital World Models help us push the frontier of ultra long horizon workflows, and unlock a new class of self-improving RL environments. This is our scalable approach to simulating all of the world’s intelligence. The round was also joined by Datadog, Inc., Samsung Ventures, Gokul Rajaram, Factorial Capital, and a large cohort of amazing AI leaders across Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind, NVIDIA, Recursive, and more.✨ It has been the ride of a lifetime. But we’re just getting started. The best is yet to come. "Do not go gentle into that good night, Rage, rage against the dying of the light" - Dylan Thomas (1954)

Historically, RL policies for robots have been trained in synthetic, untextured environments, limiting perceptive policies to depth images where the sim-to-real gap is manageable. RGB has always had more potential, but leveraging it to train policies in simulation remained an open problem. Partnering with Niantic Spatial 🌎 and NVIDIA Robotics, we built a pipeline that addresses exactly that. We can now scan a real deployment site with off-the-shelf hardware, reconstruct it into a photorealistic Gaussian splat, and run massively parallel RL training. The policies trained in our Gym environment then transfer zero-shot to the real robot and environments they were trained for. This enables faster deployment of more capable and robust policies for the end user. The new resulting capabilities are a big step towards solving sim-to-real and also apply well beyond navigation.

World Labs CEO Dr. Fei-Fei Li & SceniX Co-Founder Yunzhu Li on the data bottleneck in robotics and how world models help: "The lack of data in training, the lack of data in evaluation, this is very, very different from language models, where data is abundant on the internet." "And we know that in order for robotics to work, we have to somehow unlock the power of scaling law. But where does that come from?" "It's a profound problem that everybody's battling with in robotics." "We see a lot of unlock in being able to do this whole process through the modeling of the environments." "Being able to create these digital worlds... that's just going to unlock so much more potential for being able to replace all the costly and the unsafe data in the real environments with the data generated from the worlds for robots to be able to do scalable learning and evaluations."

Introducing EdgeBench, a benchmark designed to study how agents learn from environments over at least 12~72-hour runs. We find that performance follows a log-sigmoid function of environment interaction time with high precision. EdgeBench is built with three ingredients: - 🌍 Real & Diverse: 134 real-world tasks across 6 task categories, spanning scientific problems, professional knowledge work, software engineering, optimization, formal math, and games. - ⏳ Ultra-Long-Horizon: Each task supports 12–72 hours of agent work. Recorded human effort averages 57.2 hours. - 🔁 Informative Feedback: Agents receive real-world feedback for continuous improvement. After 38,000 hours of agent runs on EdgeBench, a scaling law for learning from environments emerges: - 📈 As agents interact with task environments over time, their aggregate performance is precisely fit by a log-sigmoid function. - 🧠 This phenomenon can be explained by an elegant theory of graph exploration. We are releasing an initial 51 of the 134 tasks, together with the full evaluation framework, to help advance long-horizon agent research. Check our blog & paper for more findings!
