House House then publicly disclosed that it used LLMs sparingly near the end of Big Walk’s development to help fix a difficult Unity shadow bug. The studio said the AI-assisted code amounted to well under 0.1% of the game’s code and was heavily modified before shipping.

AWS Machine Learning details AI-PDLC framework built on AWS Quick for upstream product development

AWS Machine Learning published a blog post on AI-PDLC, a framework built on AWS Quick that uses six specialized agents to speed upstream product development. The workflow pulls fragmented signals from Slack, Jira, Salesforce, SharePoint, ServiceNow and Outlook into connected enterprise context, then guides teams through Discover, Decide, Design and Prototype. Human approval is built into every gate, and the result is a traceable specification and prototype handoff for engineering and coding agents.

Google Labs introduces Tabletop for real-time group collaboration

Google Labs introduced Tabletop, a new experiment for real-time collaboration. Users can add links, files and ideas, then prompt @tabletop or choose a starter template to generate custom itineraries, dinner polls, expense splitters and tournament brackets. Once a space is ready, the invite link can be shared in a group chat so everyone can work in it at the same time, like in Google Docs. Tabletop is rolling out in the U.S. to waitlisted users age 18 and older.

IT之家: Google DeepMind unveils AlphaGenome 2, opens API for non-commercial research

According to IT之家, Google DeepMind has introduced AlphaGenome 2, a next-generation DNA sequence model that predicts how DNA sequences and variants affect specific human cell types. The model was trained on more than 100 million single-cell profiles and is said to improve cell-specific variant detection while adding DNA methylation prediction. IT之家 reports that AlphaGenome 2 is now available through the AlphaGenome API for non-commercial research, while commercial research remains in private preview.

AWS adds usage-based metering for Amazon SageMaker AI bidirectional streaming

AWS announced usage-based metering for Amazon SageMaker AI bidirectional streaming inference, enabling model providers to report actual consumption during live sessions so AWS Marketplace software charges can track streaming usage instead of a single end-of-stream count. Deepgram is the launch partner, adding usage-based billing for speech-to-text and text-to-speech on AWS Marketplace. Amazon SageMaker AI endpoint infrastructure charges still apply separately while the endpoint is provisioned, and customers use the bidirectional streaming API to send audio through the HTTP/2 event stream.
