This edition of The Batch covers five significant AI developments: Alibaba's Qwen3.7-Max reasoning model with 1M token context and agentic capabilities ranking fifth on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index; an OpenAI reasoning model resolving the 80-year-old Erdős planar unit distance problem; Nvidia's Gated DeltaNet-2 outperforming Mamba-3 and other linear attention architectures; Trump pulling back a proposed AI regulation executive order; and Microsoft Research's Fara1.5 computer-use agent family beating OpenAI Operator and Google Gemini on the Online-Mind2Web benchmark.
Google DeepMind has released a preview of a specialized Computer Use model built on Gemini 2.5 Pro, available via API. The model is designed to power agents that can interact with user interfaces, extending Gemini 2.5 Pro's capabilities into computer-use agentic tasks. This positions Google as a direct competitor to Anthropic's Claude Computer Use and similar offerings in the emerging computer-use agent space.
