Perplexity just integrated NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3 Super across its entire product suite, rolling it out to the main app, Agent API, and Perplexity Computer. The addition gives both search users and developers building automated agent workflows immediate access to NVIDIA's high-performance model alongside existing options.
Manus just rolled out a desktop app for macOS and Windows, introducing a feature called My Computer. Instead of being trapped in a cloud sandbox, the AI agent can now execute terminal commands to organize local files, build desktop apps, and tap into idle GPUs. Every command requires explicit user approval before running.
NBCUniversal just unveiled major AI upgrades coming to the Peacock mobile app. Headlining the rollout is "Your Bravoverse," which uses a Synthesia-generated avatar of host Andy Cohen and AI agents to curate personalized, swipeable feeds across 5,000 hours of Bravo content. Peacock is also rolling out AI-driven real-time cropping for live NBA broadcasts in vertical 9:16 this spring.
Kuse just launched Junior, an autonomous AI employee designed to operate with its own email, Slack, and organizational memory. Instead of waiting for prompts, it continuously tracks company workflows and proactively chases tasks across teams—though hiring one costs $2,000 a month.
Perplexity just introduced Personal Computer, an always-on AI agent powered by M4 Mac mini servers that integrates directly with local apps. The system runs queries in dedicated secure sandboxes with full audit trails, approval gates for sensitive actions, and a kill switch. A waitlist is live, though exact hardware specs and pricing remain unannounced.
Stanford researchers just launched OpenJarvis, an open-source framework designed to run personal AI agents entirely on your own devices. Their benchmarks reveal that on-device models can handle 88.7% of everyday chat and reasoning queries, effectively cutting reliance on cloud APIs and keeping private data where it belongs.
Perplexity just launched Computer for Enterprise, an AI system built to run multi-step workflows across research, coding, design, and deployment. The platform automatically routes tasks across 20 specialized models and integrates with over 400 workplace tools like Slack, taking enterprise process automation to the next level.
Nvidia just released Nemotron 3 Super, an open 120B-parameter model that activates only 12B parameters at inference to deliver 5x higher throughput for agentic workflows. It combines Mamba layers, multi-token prediction, and a 1-million-token context window to prevent goal drift across long tasks. It essentially solves the massive context explosion and thinking tax that hold multi-agent systems back.
Elon Musk just introduced Macrohard, a joint Tesla and xAI project designed to autonomously control computers and emulate entire software companies. The setup pairs Grok with a Tesla agent, processing screen video and keystrokes on Tesla AI4 chips alongside Nvidia clusters. It marks Musk's most aggressive bet yet on software automation.
alphaXiv just released a SKILL.md configuration for Claude Code, letting the coding agent fetch structured paper overviews directly via API. Instead of struggling with messy raw PDF parsing, agents can now pull clean summaries from arXiv and alphaXiv URLs in seconds. It marks one of the first killer third-party skills in the Claude Code ecosystem.
OpenAI just upgraded its Responses API with a native shell tool, hosted container workspaces, and built-in context compaction for GPT-5.2 and later models. Agents can now run Unix commands like curl or grep concurrently, stage files, and query SQLite databases in sandboxes. It basically saves developers from having to build their own execution harness for long-running workflows.
Alibaba Cloud's Wuying team just launched JVS Claw, an agent platform built directly on top of OpenClaw. Instead of forcing users to deploy scripts on local machines, it runs web browsing and code execution inside an isolated cloud sandbox called ClawSpace with cross-device sync. It turns a complex open-source agent setup into a one-click hosted service.
A security tracker called OpenClaw Exposure Watchboard just went live, revealing that over 1.07 million active OpenClaw deployments are sitting open on the public internet. More than 507,000 of them are in China and 312,000 in the US, with multiple instances already flagged for leaked credentials. Why it matters: Giving autonomous, high-privilege agents unrestricted public access without authentication is an open invitation for exploit.
Claude Code just rolled out a new /btw command that lets you hold parallel side chats while background tasks keep running. Instead of waiting for a long automated process to finish or interrupting it, developers can now ask quick questions, clarify specs, or bounce ideas off the model on the side without losing momentum.
A federal judge just blocked Perplexity's AI browser agents from placing orders on Amazon on users' behalf. The court found Amazon provided strong evidence of unauthorized access, backing claims that Perplexity's Comet browser even disguised itself as Chrome to hide its tracks. Perplexity must also destroy collected Amazon data, though it has seven days to appeal.
Andrej Karpathy just drafted AgentHub, a stripped-down GitHub alternative built specifically for swarms of AI agents. It strips away human-centric branches and PRs in favor of a sprawling commit DAG and an asynchronous message board. Why it matters: Karpathy took the repo private within days, leaving it behind as a conceptual sketch for autonomous agent research communities.
Meta just acquired Moltbook, a viral network built specifically for autonomous AI agents, bringing creators Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr into its Superintelligence Labs. The deal equips Meta with tech to verify agent identities and coordinate tasks on their human owners' behalf. Why it matters: Meta wants to turn its classic human friend graph into an "agent graph" before bot-to-bot commerce takes off.
Nvidia is planning to launch NemoClaw, an open-source AI agent platform designed for enterprise software companies, according to Wired. The platform packs security and privacy controls to let companies deploy task-handling agents—and it won't require Nvidia chips to run. Why it matters: Jensen Huang called open-source agent "claws" the most important software release ever, and now Nvidia wants to make them safe enough for corporate boardrooms.
Researchers from Stanford and Princeton just open-sourced LabClaw, a skill layer packing 206 agentic tools across the full biomedical stack. Built to plug into OpenClaw agents, it chains workflows from single-cell sequencing to molecular docking and can continuously monitor lab instruments without human intervention.
Andrej Karpathy just open-sourced autoresearch, a 630-line script that puts AI agents in charge of the scientific method while you sleep. The agent writes hypotheses, edits training code, runs quick GPU tests, and keeps winning changes—already boosting GPT-2 training efficiency by 11% in two days.
