Finally, JaxTrainer streamlines distributed training across TPUs by automatically handling cross-slice coordination, checkpointing, and fault tolerance.

Today we’re launching the July 2026 update to the Display & Video 360 API. This update includes the following:

• Added a new syntheticContentAttestationStatus field to Creative and AdAsset resources. This field lets you specify whether a creative or ad asset contains content that was created or edited with AI. Read more about Labeling AI content in ads.
