GBrain, an open-source memory system created by Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan, enables AI agents to retain information across conversation sessions by building a persistent brain from accumulated conversations, notes, and saved information. Rather than starting fresh each session, the system allows users to search past context and synthesizes information from weeks of previous interactions, eliminating the need to re-explain situations or reintroduce people and decisions.
Read more →Think about this for a second. Every AI interaction you’ve had for three years started with you explaining what’s on your screen to a model that cannot see your screen. You left your work, opened a tab, translated what you were looking at into
Read more →Claude Skills are replacing prompt libraries as the standard development pattern due to superior portability, versioning, and automatic context-aware loading. Anthropic announced a major compute deal with SpaceX providing access to 220,000 Nvidia GPUs through Colossus 1, enabling doubled rate limits for Claude Code and increased API capacity. The author conducted 75 tests on Claude Skills to evaluate what breaks and provide an audit checklist for improving existing skills in production environments.
Read more →Hermes, an AI agent from Nous Research, reached 100K GitHub stars in seven weeks by implementing a fundamentally different approach than existing AI tools. Unlike traditional AI applications that only function when actively used, Hermes runs in the background, executes tasks on a schedule, and improves at those tasks over time through a learning loop and a SOUL.md configuration file that personalizes the agent's behavior. The tool represents a shift from interactive AI assistance to autonomous AI infrastructure that continues operating without user intervention.
Read more →Anthropic launched Claude Design, a tool that transforms text descriptions into fully interactive, clickable prototypes displayed in the browser, requiring no design skills or software expertise. Users describe landing pages, presentations, interactive mockups, or other visual projects and receive live, navigable pages where every button and screen transition functions, and the tool is included with existing Claude Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plans.
Read more →Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.7 as the best publicly available model for agentic coding, while transparently displaying benchmark comparisons to the more powerful but gated Mythos Preview model it deemed too dangerous for public release. The company also launched Claude Routines for automating personal recurring tasks and Claude Managed Agents as a hosted production layer for deploying agents to end users. The combination of these three releases creates new capabilities for both individual automation and production-ready agent deployment.
Read more →Anthropic just launched Managed Agents and quietly made an entire category of startups obsolete. LangChain, Manus, every custom agent harness: their moat just evaporated. And in today’s deep dive, I cover the knowledge system Karpathy posted
Read more →Anthropic accidentally shipped Claude Code's entire source code in an npm package, revealing 44 unreleased feature flags, a persistent background agent called KAIROS, and an anti-distillation system designed to poison competitors' data scraping. An analysis of Anthropic's 120+ features released over 90 days identified Auto Mode and Opus 4.6 as the most significant, with Opus 4.6 enabling Claude to maintain task focus for over 14 hours. These capabilities underpin other features like Agent Teams and Dispatch, which depend on the model's extended task horizon to function effectively on complex projects.
Read more →Perplexity Computer, launched February 25, 2026, is a cloud-based system orchestrating 19 AI models and 400+ app integrations to perform research, design, building, testing, deployment, and automation tasks.

Read more →Amazon's AI chip strategy, anchored by the 2015 acquisition of Annapurna Labs and the newly released Trainium3, represents an undervalued competitive play despite the company's stock rising only 1% compared to Google's 57% gain this year. Trainium3 delivers 2.5 petaFLOPS per chip with a single liquid-cooled rack containing 144 chips that matches Nvidia's GB300 NVL72 on FP8 performance, while AWS claims 30-40% better price-performance through vertical integration and manufacturing scale. Anthropic, one of the two frontier AI labs, trains its Project Rainier on hundreds of thousands of Trainium chips, validating Amazon's silicon strategy for production-level workloads.
Read more →A newsletter examines the debate over artificial intelligence data centers in space, a concept supported by Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Sundar Pichai. Proponents including investor Gavin Baker argue that space offers superior power generation through constant sunlight (6x more solar energy than Earth), efficient cooling through thermal radiation, and faster laser-based networks compared to terrestrial data centers. Skeptics counter that cooling in vacuum presents significant physics challenges, with calculations showing that even single GPU systems would require enormous radiative surface areas to dissipate heat effectively.

Read more →Google released Gemini 3, a top-performing AI model that excels across multimodal capabilities including text, images, video, and code, while also demonstrating state-of-the-art reasoning on benchmarks such as GPQA Diamond. The model was trained entirely on Google's custom TPUs rather than Nvidia's chips, proving that frontier AI performance can be achieved without dependence on Nvidia's supply chain. This infrastructure breakthrough signals a fundamental shift in the AI competition, where custom silicon and optimized training methodology may ultimately prove more strategically valuable than raw compute scale alone.
Read more →Kimi K2, an open-source reasoning model from Moonshot AI, achieves frontier-level performance at one-tenth the cost through interleaved reasoning, which embeds verification and reflection directly into task execution to catch and correct failures step-by-step. The model uses a Mixture of Experts architecture with 1 trillion parameters but only activates 32 billion per token, enabling cost-efficient operation while handling complex multi-step tasks and tool orchestration that traditional reasoning models fail at scale. Performance comparisons demonstrate K2 outperforms GPT-5.1 on practical applications like product strategy by grounding recommendations in actual data and applying business judgment rather than abstract mathematical scoring.
