@huangruiteng: Long-horizon agents have a tough engineering problem: the tool call timed out, but did the remote side actually execute? For example, submitting a GPU experiment, the client disconnects, and the remote may have already started. Submitting again directly could end up paying twice. LoopX preserves stable operation / Job i...

LoopX addresses the hard engineering problem of whether a remote side has executed after a tool call timeout in long-horizon agents. It achieves idempotent recovery through stable operation/Job identities, reading back external facts before deciding how to recover, and compositional verification — and has open-sourced this local-first control plane for long-horizon agents.

Google breaks open a bottleneck in quantum computing with "Magic State Cultivation"

Reddit r/singularity ↗ · 4d ago Cached

Google Quantum AI has proposed and experimentally validated a new method called “Magic State Cultivation,” which can reduce magic-state errors by a factor of 40. Combined with “feedback tomography” and “grafting” techniques, it runs at extremely high speeds on superconducting qubits, marking a key step toward practical fault-tolerant quantum computing.

I crashed four production AI agents mid-action. None of them recorded what already finished.

Reddit r/AI_Agents ↗ · 2026-10-09

An empirical study crashing four production AI agent codebases (Cua, Skyvern, Corsair, Inconvo) mid-action and measuring duplicate side effects on retry, finding a shared root cause: none of them records which actions already completed, so retries re-execute work from an empty history.
