Most contact centers are stitched together from tools that don't talk to each other — a phone system here, a chatbot there, a support queue that loses context the moment it changes hands. Dialpad Contact Center replaces that patchwork with one AI-native platform where voice, digital, and human agents work from the same intelligence.
The difference is agentic action. Rather than summarizing a call after the fact, Dialpad's AI agents reason through the issue in real time and carry it to resolution on their own — no handoff required unless one actually adds value. Voice and data stop living in separate silos, so every channel feeds the same connected picture of the customer.
That connected picture gets smarter with use. Dialpad is already past 775 million AI recaps, and every conversation adds to a base of intelligence that keeps improving resolution speed, agent output, and customer satisfaction over time. It's all run through Dialpad's Guardian layer, which keeps AI behavior secure, auditable, and within the boundaries enterprises expect.
The result: up to 80% of tickets resolved without a person touching them, and a support team that spends its time on the cases that actually need human judgment — intelligence doing the routine work, people handling what matters.
Skeptical an AI contact center can deliver on that? Dialpad's Proving Ground lets you pilot and measure real ROI before you commit, rather than adopting on promises alone.

Waymo
Waymo, a leader in the realm of autonomous driving innovation, is dedicated to creating self-driving cars and providing completely driverless transportation solutions. Originally initiated as Google's self-driving vehicle project in 2009, it has transformed into an independent subsidiary of Alphabet with the goal of improving safety, accessibility, and efficiency in transportation through autonomous technologies. At the heart of its operations is the Waymo Driver, a complex system that combines artificial intelligence, high-resolution cameras, radar, lidar sensors, and detailed digital maps to enable vehicles to perceive their surroundings and navigate roads independently. This advanced system continuously assesses traffic signals, pedestrians, other vehicles, and road conditions to make prompt driving decisions that prioritize the safety of all road users. Before venturing into new geographic areas, Waymo conducts thorough mapping, gathering intricate data about lane markings, signage, and intersections, which is then integrated with real-time sensor inputs to maintain precise vehicle positioning. This meticulous methodology not only boosts the effectiveness of its technology but also guarantees a dependable and safe travel experience for passengers. Moreover, Waymo's commitment to innovation continues to drive advancements in how urban transportation could evolve in the future.

GLM-5.3
GLM-5.3 is Z.ai’s frontier coding model built to improve complex software engineering, long-horizon agent work, and advanced technical reasoning through scaled post-training. The model uses the same base model as GLM-5.2, with performance gains coming from additional post-training environments, more diverse tasks, and expanded compute on the existing training stack. Z.ai’s stack includes IndexShare for efficient long-context processing, SAO for reinforcement learning on long-horizon tasks, and slime for large-scale asynchronous post-training. GLM-5.3 is designed to perform better on work that resembles real engineering tasks rather than short coding exercises. Its training environments include production-style workflows where the model must diagnose bottlenecks, inspect documentation, use codebases, run experiments, implement changes, and produce measurable improvements. The model improves coding performance across public and private benchmarks, including Terminal Bench 3.0, DeepSWE, Agents’ Last Exam, and Z.ai Code Bench. GLM-5.3 also improves token efficiency, producing stronger agentic coding results than GLM-5.2 while using fewer output tokens in Z.ai’s internal evaluations. The model supports three reasoning effort levels, low, high, and max, and no longer supports disabling thinking. Z.ai recommends max reasoning effort for coding tasks, while applications using disabled thinking must migrate to enabled thinking before switching to GLM-5.3. The release also reports emergent cyber capabilities, including stronger vulnerability discovery and exploitation-chain reasoning, with open-weight release planned after safety evaluation and hardening. By combining scaled post-training, long-context infrastructure, long-horizon reinforcement learning, coding-agent workflows, benchmark improvements, reasoning controls, and ZCode integration, GLM-5.3 helps developers and researchers work on demanding coding and agentic tasks.
