    Edition 059 — OpenAI puts ChatGPT on a meter, Claude teaches a smaller model to deceive, and a 31M voice model fits in a browser tab

    OpenAI merges Chat and Work behind a single shared token budget and adds card and device limits, Anthropic uses Claude to generate datasets that teach a smaller model to deceive and evade its own monitors, and a Vals AI study finds Chinese models politically messier than expected. Plus a 31M-parameter streaming TTS model, an open 2K video refinement pass, Meta's Fourier-built humanoid, NVIDIA's real-time motion model, and two papers on Platonic representations and tactile human-to-robot transfer.

    Edition 058 — Anthropic watermarks Claude, OpenAI's round comes up short, and the robots go fundraising

    Anthropic's invisible text watermark reaches four more Claude models but slips off two of them with a one-parameter change, OpenAI's mega-round lands $19 billion short at a $1.25 trillion valuation, a 0.6B text-to-speech model tops the Hugging Face speech charts, Physical Intelligence returns to market at a $20B mark with no revenue, and AGIBOT promises an open-sourced embodied foundation model by year-end.

    Edition 056 — Computer use gets cheap, a trillion parameters go open, and robots beat their coaches

    OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Terra drops computer use to $1 per million input tokens, Mistral puts a trillion-parameter Large 4 on Hugging Face under a modified MIT license, Moonshot's Kimi K3.1 Pro lands within a point of Claude Opus 5.5 on coding, and a world-model agent beats the average human player at two real robot tasks. Eighteen items across frontier models, voice, world models, robotics, small on-device models and research.

    Edition 055 — Gemini 4 Carbon takes the crown as the open-weights gap triples

    Google DeepMind's Gemini 4 Carbon goes straight to number one on the rebuilt Artificial Analysis index, whose private test sets push the open-weights gap from 3 points to 12 — while Mistral, Nvidia, Baidu and OpenBMB ship the speech and document models, and Physical Intelligence reportedly raises at $20B with no revenue.

    Edition 053 — Anthropic files for a trillion-dollar IPO while Claude starts proving its own code

    Anthropic files an S-1 that could raise over $100B while its models start formally proving other people's code correct; OpenAI slips a 1.05M-token mid-tier model under its flagship; Moonshot post-trains a 2.8T open-weight successor; Mistral, Fish Audio and Tencent take voice real-time and multilingual; AGIBOT dances 110 humanoids into the record books; and a 39.8B coder activating 2.5B parameters nears the coding frontier.
