SpaceXSI is rolling out Slack integration for Grok Bot, letting users connect bots individually to workspaces. Once connected, you can DM or @ mention bots directly in Slack while keeping all plugins, context, and memories intact. The feature is slated for the macOS 1.1.0 build.
Anthropic is working on a collaborative mode for Claude Code Projects. The platform's Projects page now summarizes recent thread activity, while Anthropic's Lydia Hallie teased yesterday that multiplayer functionality is in the works. Why it matters: Adding real-time team collaboration could make shared AI coding workflows far smoother.
Anthropic just upgraded Claude Code cloud sessions for Pro, Max, and Ultra subscribers. The AI can now automatically figure out project dependencies, network access, and required API keys to spin up and run code in the cloud with minimal manual setup.
Claude for iOS is testing another interface redesign that puts Chats, Projects, and Code into separate tabs along a side navigation bar. Other options like Dispatch and Personal Finance have been tucked away into the profile menu, shifting away from the previous bottom bar layout.
Meta just rolled out new specialized models trained on Muse Wonder to its Muse and Meta AI apps. The update brings Active Memory and Active Focus to all users, cutting critical info slip-ups by 2.4x and boosting everyday task completion and self-correction by 67%. Basically, you'll repeat yourself less and hit fewer dead ends.
Meta just rolled out Spaces inside its Muse app, letting users spin up personalized interactive trackers and boards simply by describing what they need in chat. The spaces pull data from connected apps to update in the background and can be pinned or scheduled across your tabs. Collaborative sharing is coming next, backed by specialized models trained on Muse Wonder.
Amazon just added a text messaging feature to its Alexa for Shopping assistant, allowing US shoppers to order groceries and household items simply by texting a contact named “Amazon Alexa.” Users can describe items or send photos, and the AI agent searches Amazon listings, recommends matches, and completes purchases on their behalf. It is currently rolling out to an invite-only group before expanding to millions more.
Anthropic just unveiled a new agent memory framework for Claude inspired by human sleep, dubbed 'dreaming.' During idle time between sessions, agents review raw logs to correct faulty assumptions and distill broad strategies rather than hoarding every trivial detail. Why it matters: smarter agents don't just remember more—they know what to prune.
Meta just rolled out realtime voice and expressive avatars to its Muse app across mobile, web, and Mac. The avatars react with subtle expressions matching your conversational tone, support natural mid-sentence interruptions, and feature hundreds of voice personalities. Currently live for US users, with support for AI Glasses coming next.
Perplexity just started rolling out Teammates, its new proactive agents, to Perplexity Max subscribers on the web. They operate in an isolated environment with memory, tool calling, and the ability to execute computer tasks. Mobile app support is coming soon.
Anthropic just rolled out Personal Finance in Claude, launching in beta for US paid subscribers on Pro, Max, and Ultra plans. Users can securely link bank and card accounts via Plaid to ask plain-language questions about balances and spending habits. Access is strictly read-only with zero ads, and chats in the finance hub are excluded from model training.
ChatAndBuild just launched Living Brain, a persistent memory layer that lets ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and custom agents read and edit the same context. Users can switch between AI apps without re-explaining background details. It boasts a 464ms median retrieval latency and up to 22.6x fewer tokens per query.
OpenAI just launched Images 2.6 across ChatGPT, Codex, and its API, boosting generation speeds by 50% and adding native support for animated GIFs. Developers get two API variants—including the six-second Flare model—plus SVG exports and fine-grained scene complexity controls. It is live now for all subscription tiers.
Grok Bot just rolled out a new shopping experience, letting users hunt for the best deals and track ongoing orders directly in the chat. It is also adding passkey support for purchase approvals soon, basically turning the assistant into an end-to-end shopping agent.
Google just launched Guided Learning globally in Google Classroom and search, while overhauling Gemini and search controls for K-12 students. The education push also includes expanded AI training for teachers and new Google.org funding for classroom tools.
Elon Musk just confirmed that SpaceX slashed Grok Bot usage limits because running the agentic AI has become unsustainably expensive relative to revenue. The sudden squeeze maxed out weekly caps for users over the weekend, proving that even a profitable AI division can get crushed by runaway compute bills. Future subscription limits remain unannounced.
Anthropic just launched Message Threads in public beta for the Claude Messages API. Long-running agents no longer have to re-upload full conversation histories on every turn, sending only new messages instead. For heavy sessions with 500k to 1M tokens, median time to first token drops by roughly 35%.
Andrej Karpathy just built HackerTube, an alternative YouTube recommender, in about two hours using Claude Opus 5.5. Frustrated by YouTube's noisy recommendations, he used Claude Code to filter 43 million Hacker News comments down to 6,454 heavily recommended videos with no login required. Why it matters: It proves how frontier AI lets solo developers ship custom, algorithm-free tools in a single afternoon.
OpenAI just revealed that starting in December, ChatGPT and Codex will share a single token allowance pool across Plus, Pro, and Business plans. The shift comes as OpenAI brings Work's agentic tools directly into regular chat, meaning heavier models and complex tasks will draw from the same cap, though instant chat stays untouched. If you burn through your quota, you will have to wait for resets or buy extra credits.
ByteDance’s video editor CapCut just announced a ChatGPT plugin that turns raw footage into a rough first cut through simple prompts. Creators can keep refining the timeline in chat—tweaking shot lengths and subtitles—or adjust things manually. It’s set to roll out for testing in the coming months.
