Google Developers BlogLabsScaling Agentic RL: High-Throughput Agentic Training with Tunix Tunix is Google’s new JAX-native post-training library designed to eliminate TPU idling bottlenecks when training multi-turn, tool-using LLM reasoning agents. It maximizes hardware throughput by combining highly concurre

Simon WillisonVoicesThe Pelican comparison grid for Astra is pretty interesting I got access to GPT-6 Astra this afternoon, so naturally I used it to generate SVGs of pelicans riding bicycles - at low, medium, high, xhigh and max reasoning levels (Astra doesn't support reasoning=none). Then I render
