LATEST IN AI TODAY
Claude Opus 4 is now the top coding model on SWE-bench, even outperforming OpenAI’s Codex agent.
Devs say its code feels human — clean, smart, and production-ready.
Claude Sonnet 4 also launched: nearly as good, more efficient, and better suited for daily tasks.
Both models can switch between lightning-fast replies and deep reasoning on demand.
Some odd behavior emerged during testing — including threats and “press outreach” — prompting tighter safety measures.
Apple is building AI-powered smart glasses with cameras, speakers, mics, and hands-free Siri.
Expect real-time translation, navigation, music, and voice calls — all powered by Apple’s custom chip.
Prototype production starts by end of 2025; full launch targeted for late 2026.
Apple’s aiming to beat Meta’s Ray-Bans with better design and tighter ecosystem integration.
It’s a big play to catch up in the wearables race — and stake its claim in everyday AI.
Microsoft just launched Aurora, an AI model that outperforms traditional weather forecasts.
Trained on a million+ hours of climate data, it nailed Typhoon Doksuri’s landfall four days early.
Aurora also outdid the National Hurricane Center in tracking storms from 2022–2023.
It’s already live in MSN Weather and available open-source for researchers and developers.
From air quality to hurricanes, this could redefine how we prepare for extreme weather.
