# forck.live — 27 July – 2 August 2026 > AI lab announcements, news reports and podcasts. forck.live follows what companies announce about their own products. Press may corroborate an official story; it never leads and never appears as an item of its own. A missing date stays missing. A title is the publisher's words — where a company does not publish in English, an English rendering is listed separately as `Title in English` and named as this site's translation, never as theirs. This file is one issue of the weekly archive: every confirmed first-party announcement of ISO week 2026-W31, 27 July – 2 August 2026, newest first. The window never moves, so this URL always names the same seven days — but a post published inside them and detected later is added when it arrives, so a closed week can still gain entries. Every entry is one first-party announcement, and carries the same eight fields in this order before any others: Company · Announced · Category · Coverage · Announcement · Group · Source · Record `Source` is the company's own page the announcement was traced to and `Record` is this site's page for it. Both are safe to cite. `Coverage` is a number of outlets, or `not counted` — which means this record reached no count of its own, never that nobody wrote about it. `Category` is this tracker's own analysis, and is authoritative wherever it is stated. `not stated` means either that nothing has analysed the post yet or that the analysis placed it outside this taxonomy; neither is a verdict about the announcement. `Announcement` is whether the post is news of something the company did, rather than a how-to, a customer story, a changelog listing or a staffing note. `Group` is which of this record's groups the entry falls in, carried on the entry itself so it holds where the groups are headings and where they are not. One of: `models`, `covered`, `announcements`, `routine`. Anything after `Record` is held detail that only some announcements carry. - This week's page: https://forck.live/week/2026-W31 - The current issue, and the catalogue of the other weeks: https://forck.live/briefing.md - Catalogue: https://forck.live/llms.txt ## Announcements ### Supabase — Are Supabase docs agent-friendly? We didn't know, so we checked - Company: Supabase (supabase.com) - Announced: 2026-08-01 - Category: not stated - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: no - Group: routine - Source: https://supabase.com/blog/are-supabase-docs-agent-friendly - Record: https://forck.live/items/21275-are-supabase-docs-agent-friendly-we-didn-t-know-so-we-checked - Subject: Supabase Supabase evaluated its Row Level Security documentation by running an AI coding agent against it using an open-source eval framework. The tests revealed that the guide allowed agents to grant unauthenticated users write access to all tables and lacked test suites. Supabase fixed these issues by adding procedural steps to revoke default grants and moving test examples next to the code snippets, which made the eval pass. The company concluded that agent-friendly documentation requires placing critical instructions near the code users copy. ### Together AI — Kimi K3: The Complete Developer Guide - Company: Together AI (together.ai) - Announced: 2026-08-01 - Category: new-model - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: models - Source: https://www.together.ai/blog/kimi-k3-guide - Record: https://forck.live/items/2325-kimi-k3-the-complete-developer-guide - Subject: Inference platform Together AI announces the availability of Moonshot AI's Kimi K3, a 2.8-trillion-parameter open-weight model with 1M context, hybrid attention (KDA), Attention Residuals, and Stable LatentMoE architecture, served via an OpenAI-compatible API. ### OpenAI — Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science - Company: OpenAI (openai.com) - Announced: 2026-08-01 - Category: research-paper - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: announcements - Source: https://openai.com/index/ten-advances-in-mathematics - Record: https://forck.live/items/2-ten-advances-in-mathematics-and-theoretical-computer-science - Subject: GPT / ChatGPT / API OpenAI announced new results on long-standing open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science, covering advances in geometry, cryptography, and complexity. ### GitHub — Upcoming August 2026 model deprecations in GitHub Copilot - Company: GitHub (github.com) - Announced: 2026-07-31T21:26:48+00:00 - Category: deprecation - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: announcements - Source: https://github.blog/changelog/2026-07-31-upcoming-august-2026-model-deprecations-in-github-copilot - Record: https://forck.live/items/3495-upcoming-august-2026-model-deprecations-in-github-copilot - Subject: Copilot GitHub will deprecate six models across all Copilot experiences on September 1, 2026, and provides suggested alternatives for each. ### Runway — Bringing Runway Characters to SIGGRAPH's Biggest Stage - Company: Runway (runway.com) - Announced: 2026-07-31T20:25:07.805000+00:00 - Category: capability-change - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: announcements - Source: https://runway.com/news/company-news/runway-characters-siggraph-2026 - Record: https://forck.live/items/7862-bringing-runway-characters-to-siggraph-s-biggest-stage - Subject: Gen / Aleph Runway presented its Characters feature at SIGGRAPH 2026, where it was accepted into the Real-Time Live! session.

The product team was formed from grassroots discussions within the Applied team, and the products are designed to deliver AI technology to customers, with close collaboration between the Research, Applied, and Product teams. The model Sakana Fugu is specifically mentioned as a product born from cross-team collaboration. The interviewee's background in consulting and crypto (Coincheck) led him to view generative AI as the industry leaning furthest forward, and he chose Sakana AI because its headquarters in Japan allows core product decisions to be made locally, avoiding the division of roles typical of foreign tech companies' Japan offices. The product team became independent in February 2026 upon the release of Sakana Chat, with Omura leading it. The interview also discusses the relationship between the three teams: Research creates technology, Product delivers it as products and monetizes, and Applied provides hands-on customer support, with daily communication and requests flowing both ways. The vision includes a future where humans and AI make decisions together, and an organizational philosophy of turning diversity into strength. The product releases are in rapid succession, starting with Sakana Chat in March 2026, followed by Sakana Marlin, Sakana Fugu, and Sakana Translate. The source text is an interview, not a formal press release, but it announces the products and provides context about the company's product development approach. The product launch is significant because it represents a shift for a company known for research and development, now shipping products at a fast pace. The products are not described in detail regarding their capabilities, but they are named and their release order is given. The company's co-founder and chairman, Ren Ito, was involved in the decision to treat model development as part of the business, leading to the product team's formation. The model Sakana Fugu is explicitly called a model in the text, so it is included in models_affected. The other products (Sakana Chat, Sakana Marlin, Sakana Translate) are not explicitly called models in the source, so they are not included. The summary captures the key announcement and supporting context from the interview. The evidence_excerpt is a verbatim copy of the first sentence of the source text, which directly states the product releases. The category is product_launch because the company is putting new named products on the market. The fields license, context_window, and pricing_note are empty because the source text does not mention them. The provider is Sakana AI, the title and URL are as given. The models_affected list contains only the model name explicitly mentioned in the text: Sakana Fugu. The is_open_weight field is false as the source does not mention open weights. The JSON is structured as specified. ### Google DeepMind — Introducing Gemini Robotics ER 2 - Company: Google DeepMind (deepmind.google) - Announced: 2026-07-30T15:00:00+00:00 - Category: new-model - Coverage: 2 outlets - Announcement: yes - Group: models - Source: https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/google-deepmind/gemini-robotics-er-2/ - Record: https://forck.live/items/1300-introducing-gemini-robotics-er-2 - Subject: Gemini Google DeepMind launched Gemini Robotics ER 2, a new embodied reasoning model for robotics that enables real-time spatial reasoning, multi-step task planning, multi-robot collaboration, and video-based progress tracking.
