New features and launches in ChatGPT, Cursor, Perplexity and other AI tools, plus changes to pricing and availability.
Anthropic just integrated Claude Design across all Claude chats and Claude Code. You can now type /design directly in the terminal to generate on-brand UI layouts pulled straight from your codebase, fine-tune spacing and color on the canvas, and immediately hand the mockup off to code or tools like Vercel.
Epic Games just launched Unreal MCP, an official tool connecting agentic LLMs directly to Unreal Engine and UEFN. Built on the open MCP standard, it allows AI agents to trigger actions and run workflows right inside the engine editor. It means developers can now hand off tedious editor tasks to coding agents.
Google just released Google AI Edge Foresight, a free experimental note-taking app that transcribes meetings entirely offline on Apple Silicon Macs. Powered by its on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 model, the tool turns shorthand bullet points into polished notes and lets you query your meeting audio and local files. Best of all, none of your private data ever leaves your computer.
PiChat just linked LLMs and persistent execution with iPhone Shortcuts to automatically trigger tasks right from incoming notifications. Powered by PiDurableKit, it writes dialogue and tool calls to storage before running, meaning it can resume without losing progress even if iOS kills the app in the background.
Developer wheresryan22 just launched Anatomy, an agent skill for Claude Code and coding agents. Give it an abstract idea like rate limiting, and it builds an interactive isometric machine with moving SVG parts and WebGL shaders instead of boring arrow diagrams.
Anthropic just launched Claude Dashboards and Motion in beta, letting users turn raw enterprise data into auto-refreshing charts and generate code-powered animated explainer videos exported as MP4s. Dashboards connects directly to platforms like Snowflake and BigQuery on paid plans, while Motion is available for Team and Enterprise tiers. Meanwhile, Claude Docs, Slides, and Design are now officially out of beta and free for everyone.
Google just launched the Gemini agent, an enterprise-wide autonomous assistant embedded directly inside Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Instead of giving step-by-step instructions, users can assign an end goal and let the agent orchestrate sub-agents, manage persistent memory, and run cross-system workflows in the background. It turns prompt boxes into automated digital coworkers.
Grok Bot just rolled out full search, reading, and monitoring features across X to all users, with zero connector setup required. You can now tell the bot to track product feedback, watch breaking stories, or build weekly roundups directly in chat. Basically, real-time social listening just became a native feature for anyone on the platform.
Microsoft just updated Copilot Studio so developers can build user-facing apps, deterministic workflows, and reasoning agents all in one unified workspace. The platform now generates interactive app interfaces from plain text prompts and introduces hooks to inspect or block tool calls during an agent's run. It basically stops treating agents as standalone chatbots and turns them into complete enterprise software solutions.
Google just rolled out its SynthID Detector globally in English, letting anyone verify whether images, video, or audio were AI-generated. The free tool supports content from Google and partners including OpenAI, NVIDIA, Kakao, and soon Apple. Why it matters: After watermarking over 180 billion files, Google is moving AI content verification from closed newsrooms straight to the public.
Google just launched Playground, an experimental browser-based platform that lets anyone build, play, and share custom games using plain text prompts. Creators can tweak physics, rules, and art styles via chat, play multiplayer with friends, and share games publicly. It is currently available to users 18+ in the U.S., with Unity Spark integration coming soon.
SpaceX's Grok Bot is ditching the single-model setup to route every task to the best AI available. Elon Musk announced the bot will dynamically call external APIs, using Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 for text, Midjourney for images, and Suno for music generation to deliver the highest quality results.
OpenAI just launched Decisions API in public beta for all developers, powered by GPT-6 Luna. It picks models, tools, or actions up to 10x faster than standard Responses API calls using text and image inputs. Basically, it gives your apps a split-second router to steer requests and flag risky tool calls on the fly.
OpenAI just rolled out a new Meetings plugin in beta for the ChatGPT Mac app, letting Pro and Business subscribers capture notes hands-free. It pulls from your existing work history to organize personalized takeaways into ChatGPT Space and can instantly draft follow-ups or tweak project plans. Basically, third-party note-taking bots have serious competition right on the desktop.
Hark just launched Hark Pro, an AI personal assistant built to operate your computer and handle digital chores like replying to emails and renewing car registrations. The app displays its live browser navigation in a small window so users can see every action it takes. Basic access is free, with a paid tier for heavy use.
Pinterest just launched Beauty Guides, an AI tool that translates saved hair and nail Pins into ready-to-use salon action plans. It decodes visual inspiration into exact stylist terminology like "balayage" or "root melt," complete with estimated salon times, price ranges, and maintenance advice.
OpenAI just rolled out its Auto-review feature for free to all signed-in ChatGPT users without touching plan quotas. The mode deploys a secondary agent to watch over the primary model's moves, blocking high-risk or off-track actions automatically. It basically solves prompt approval fatigue on long agent workflows.
Instinct AI just added group chat support, letting friends collaboratively plan trips, split tickets, and coordinate carpools in a single thread—even if other people don't use Instinct. It introduces clever permission gates: the group agent can't touch personal data, and adding a new member automatically holds replies until re-approved. Group coordination might finally stop being a logistics headache.
TikTok just rolled out a batch of AI commerce tools, headlined by a conversational Shopping Assistant agent and a one-click Buy Direct checkout. The platform also opened up its Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector to Claude, Perplexity, and Snowflake, allowing advertisers to run campaign workflows through external AI agents.
OpenAI’s Codex team just kicked off an intense 28-day sprint, promising to ship one clear, user-facing improvement every single day for coders and work users—or push a full reset if they miss. The push focuses strictly on simplifying workflows, boosting daily efficiency, and landing new models. Why it matters: OpenAI is answering loud user feedback to strip away clutter and make its flagship coding tool much simpler to use.
