releasing slowly because of it, you must check out Q=
A Wolf.

Their AI-native service gets engineering teams to 80% automate=

end-to-end test coverage, [5] and helps dev teams SHIP 5X FASTER by
r=
educing QA cycles from hours to minutes.

QA Wolf [6] takes testing off=

1X has integrated its new video-pretrai= ned world model, 1XWM, into its NEO robot platform. The 1XWM model predicts=
robot actions by generating text-conditioned video rollouts and then trans= lating them into motion commands through an Inverse Dynamics Model. It uses=
a 14B parameter generative video model as a backbone, with inference curre= ntly taking about 11 seconds per rollout. The method enables faster adaptat= ion to new tasks as it doesn't require tens of thousands of robot demonstra= tion hours.

<strong>Why We Built Our Own Backgr= ound Agent (17 minute read)</strong>
</span>

<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
Inspect is a coding agent that closes t=
he loop on verifying its work by having all of the context and tools needed=
to prove it. It can run tests, review telemetry, and query feature flags, = and it visually verifies its work and gives users screenshots and live prev= iews. Each session runs in a sandboxed VM with everything an engineer would=
have locally. This post contains the spec for Inspect so anyone can replic= ate the tool.
