Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI chatbot, just opened an early preview of Claude Duet. It's a new app where Claude acts more like an assistant that comes to you, instead of waiting for you to open a chat. It's waitlist only for now.

Nvidia wants to ship AI data centers in shipping containers. With its new DSX POD design, partners like Dell and HPE build the computers, cooling and wiring in a factory, so a ready site can be running in about 14 days instead of six months. First ones arrive in early 2027.

On privacy, Anthropic says Duet never directly sees your passwords, and a new safety check is meant to stop it from sharing things like credit card numbers. It runs on Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 model and brings over your existing Claude memory and apps.

For now it's for US subscribers on the paid Pro and Max plans, through a waitlist, and it shares those plans' usage limits. There's an iOS and Android app, plus claude.ai on a computer. Anthropic says it can still misjudge what's urgent and will keep tuning it.

Banks still run on COBOL, a programming language from 1959 that OpenAI says handles 95% of ATM transactions. OpenAI says its newest models got far better at it. On its test of moving old COBOL programs to modern languages, its older model got 5.4% right and GPT-6.1 Sol got 86.6%.

Tim Sweeney, who runs Epic Games, says AI will bring a new golden age of gaming, because games that cost too much to make will finally be worth building. He says about 70% of his time writing the first Unreal Engine was just typing routine code, the part AI does now.

Mystery solved. "Space Bunny," the unnamed AI model coders have been piling onto for weeks, was made by MiniMax, a Chinese AI lab. It's now officially out as M3.1 Flash. On MiniMax's own coding test it scores 73.7, right behind Claude Opus 5 at 74.0, for far less per task.

Amazon is famous for banning slides in favor of six-page memos that everyone reads in silence before a meeting. Now a lot of those memos come from AI, and some employees tag them "AI;DR," short for AI, didn't read. That's per Steve Huynh, who spent almost 20 years at Amazon.

People are pointing Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding helper, at their smart TVs. One guy sent it his TV's product listing and asked "can you hack this?" It walked him through stripping out the ads and preinstalled junk. His two posts about it passed 4.7 million views.

Anthropic, the company behind Claude, plans to put 5% of its shares into a new fund for the public good. Every time the company's value grows 50% past a set mark, it can add another 2%. One area it's eyeing is helping workers whose jobs get shaken up by AI.

Odyssey, an AI lab, put a simulated fruit fly brain inside its world model, an AI that makes up a 3D world as you move through it. None of this harbor is real. The fly's virtual brain picks where to go and the AI draws the scene around it. Over 2.6 million views since last night.

Google DeepMind put four AI helpers running its Gemini 4 Argon model into a fresh Minecraft world and told them to beat the game. With no human help, they split up jobs over chat, wrote 2,783 little programs, died 605 times, and took down the Ender Dragon in 27 hours.
