A video analytics AI agent that can perceive, reason, and act based on massive amounts of video footage must be integrated with existing workflows and applications to be useful. These include content management systems, messaging platforms, databases, ticket queue, and escalation paths. This integration is challenging because video systems, enterprise knowledge bases…

Agentic AI changes the infrastructure pattern for AI factories. One request can trigger many model calls, tool calls, memory lookups, policy checks, storage accesses, and network transfers before a final answer is produced. As more agents run at once and carry context across steps, users, tools, services, and sessions, infrastructure must move, protect, retrieve, and reuse data fast enough to keep…

The NVIDIA Nemotron Model Reasoning Challenge invited the Kaggle community to explore a focused question: What techniques can improve reasoning accuracy when everyone starts from the same open model, benchmark, infrastructure and evaluation constraints? The response was massive. By the close of the competition, more than 5,000 active participants across 4,000 teams had generated thousands of…

Coding AI agents are becoming practical operators for long-running machine learning (ML) workflows. They can inspect repositories, set up runtimes, resolve build issues, launch experiments, monitor execution, analyze metrics, and summarize results. For reinforcement learning (RL) research, this matters because meaningful metrics often appear only after the essential experiment infrastructure…

What if autonomous coding AI agents could push your vision reasoning models above 90% accuracy with almost no manual effort? When adapting vision reasoning models to production video tasks, developers often lose days to data formatting, container setup, training scripts, baseline evaluation, and hyperparameter sweeps before they even know whether post-training improves accuracy.

Fine-tuning LLMs for financial natural language processing (NLP) is constrained by limited, imbalanced data. Real-world financial news overrepresents earnings and stock movements, while rarer events such as credit-rating changes, product approvals, and labor issues are harder to capture at scale. Synthetic generation can help fill those gaps for trading research, risk modeling, and surveillance…

Agentic systems often face a trade-off between accuracy and cost. The highest-performing proprietary frontier models and harnesses provide top accuracy but are expensive. Fine-tuning offers one way to address this problem. Smaller or more efficient open models starting with lower accuracy are taught to perform better with specific agents. However, fine-tuning requires expertise and hardware for…

Industrial machinery generates more alarms than technicians can triage. For each important alarm requiring follow-up, the technician pulls historical context, determines the correct procedure, checks whether a specialist signal confirms the failure mode, and writes up a recommendation. This process remains consistent, and is well-suited for an AI agent. This post discusses a per-alarm…

Agentic systems turn model reasoning into action through multi-step workflows that combine inference, tool use, code execution, retrieval, orchestration, and result handling. As these systems scale across the AI factory, performance depends not only on GPU acceleration, but also on the CPU work that happens between model steps. Across the creation and deployment of an agentic system…

AI has transformed how organizations operate, driving unprecedented levels of productivity and innovation. However, AI adoption can be impeded by concerns surrounding data privacy, sovereignty and how to secure data while it is in use, or during inference and engagement with AI models. NVIDIA Confidential Computing (CC) was engineered to be a secure and performant solution for the era of agentic…

Reinforcement learning (RL) is central to aligning language models, from reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) within AI assistants to newer reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) workflows for reasoning and agent tasks. RL is now becoming a practical technique for specialized AI where enterprises need more accurate agents for domain-specific workflows.

AI agents are quickly moving beyond chat. They inspect code, run tests, read documents, search knowledge bases, query internal systems, and operate for hours on behalf of a user. This unlocks productivity, but can also give agents access to sensitive enterprise data and the ability to complete tasks and take action across business systems, making a secure, governed environment essential.

AI agents have changed a lot in the last two years. The first could only answer one question at a time. Then came multi-turn chat, where the model could keep some context across a session. Today, we have long-horizon agents. Systems that plan many steps, split work between sub-agents, keep context across a long task, and run tools in a safe sandbox. The NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint is an open source…

As AI systems move from single-turn interactions to coordinated multiagent workflows, low-latency inference becomes increasingly important. Autoregressive LLMs generate tokens sequentially, which can limit GPU utilization and constrain throughput in latency-sensitive serving scenarios. Speculative decoding helps mitigate this bottleneck by using a lightweight model to draft future tokens…

Training a speech AI model to correctly recognize or synthesize clinical terminology is surprisingly difficult. Drug names like Acetaminophen, Amlodipine, Cefazolin, and Biktarvy are not part of everyday vocabulary. Procedure names, anatomy terms, and specialty-specific diagnoses introduce the same problem in a different form. Off-the-shelf speech systems can sound fluent and still miss the words…
