Perplexity has launched Portable Computer, a version of its AI agent platform that runs on a user’s own Nvidia equipped hardware rather than primarily in the cloud. Michael Nuñez reports for VentureBeat that the product was developed with Nvidia and is initially available for Linux systems with supported RTX graphics cards and Nvidia’s DGX Spark …
AI agents in Slack are moving beyond simple chatbots that answer when tagged. Anthropic has expanded its Claude Tag agent so it can read the full context of a channel conversation and decide whether to intervene. NanoClaw, meanwhile, now lets users create teams of separate, persistent agents directly from a Slack message. The developments illustrate …
An anonymous AI model called Ox Alpha has appeared on OpenRouter and OpenCode with unusually high free usage limits, including a one-million-token multimodal context window. Rohail Saleem reports for Wccftech that the service claims it can process up to 100 trillion tokens per day for one week without charge. Ox Alpha is presented as a …
Anthropic has introduced cross-session messaging for Claude Code, allowing separate AI coding sessions on the same computer to exchange short updates, findings and requests while work is in progress. The feature is available from Claude Code version 2.1.224 on macOS and Linux. It is designed for people running several sessions in parallel, for example on …
Google has introduced Gemini 3.7 Flash, a new version of its lower cost AI model aimed at coding, workplace tasks and AI agents that use software tools. The company is offering an introductory API price of $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens through the end of 2026. Prices are set …
Google is positioning the Pixel 11 family less as a hardware refresh and more as a vehicle for Gemini features that can act across apps, handle routine requests and reshape how photos are processed. The new phones introduce agent-like Gemini tasks, expanded translation tools and AI camera functions, while the Pixel Watch 5 extends Google’s …
SpaceXAI has launched Grok Bot, a beta service that lets users assign ongoing work to AI agents that can operate apps and websites through their own computer environments. The release comes alongside Grok 4.6, a new model that SpaceXAI positions for coding, knowledge work and longer agent-led tasks. Grok Bot is initially available on macOS, …
Nvidia has introduced Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, an open artificial intelligence model designed for high volume agent tasks, alongside NeMo Switchyard, a tool that routes tasks between different AI models. Kyt Dotson reports for SiliconANGLE that the releases target companies that use AI agents for a mix of routine requests and more demanding reasoning work. Nemotron …
AI coding agents can now plan experiments, write software, run tests, inspect failures and revise their work with limited human supervision, according to a detailed personal case study by Google DeepMind researcher David P. Reichert. Reichert writes in his Substack that recent tools such as Anthropic’s Claude Code should be understood less as chatbots and …
Meta has released Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter AI model that developers can download, modify and run on powerful personal computers. The move marks a renewed commitment to openly available model weights after Meta shifted its newer Muse family toward proprietary releases earlier this year. Glimmer is available under the Apache 2.0 license, which permits commercial …
