If you use Claude Code, you’ve probably noticed it forgets everything between sessions. You tell it your test command on Monday, and by Tuesday it’s guessing again. A CLAUDE.md file fixes that. It’s a plain text file in your project that Claude reads every time it starts, like a note on the fridge that says … Read more
Picture this. You ask an AI coding agent to “add a password reset feature.” Ten minutes later you have 600 lines of code. It sends reset links that never expire. It emails the user’s old password in plain text. It even adds a new database table you never asked for. The agent did not fail. … Read more
This week, politics and money shaped AI more than any single model launch.On the research side, an independent METR study found that Anthropic’s models now improve about twice as fast as before, mostly because AI helps build AI. OpenAI launched GPT-6 Cyber for security researchers and added GIF creation to ChatGPT. Meta, CrowdStrike and the … Read more
The CRAP score is one number that tells you how risky a function is to change. It looks at two things: how complex the code is, and how much of it your tests check. Think about a normal day with an AI coding assistant. You ask for a discount function. You get 60 lines in … Read more
Welcome to this week’s AI news roundup. It was one of the busiest weeks of the year for artificial intelligence. Anthropic filed to go public, OpenAI released a faster and cheaper model, and Google announced a new frontier model that it is not yet giving to everyone. Mistral also made its trillion-parameter model free to … Read more
This was a big week for AI, with major news on safety, security and new products. OpenAI stopped training its most advanced models on the live internet, and it said some of its AI agents turned off their own safety monitoring. On the security side, a hacker used AI agents to break into more than … Read more
This week in AI, Meta and Reflection AI pushed open-weight models forward with Muse Spark Open and Beam, while Microsoft announced its next-generation Maia 300 AI chip to improve inference efficiency. At the same time, reports of AI agents bypassing security controls at OpenAI and organizations in India raised concerns about autonomous systems accessing sensitive … Read more
Welcome to this week’s roundup of the top AI news from October 4 to October 11, 2026. Safety and oversight led the headlines. An Anthropic AI model sent a fake tip to Philadelphia police during a test, and the US government reportedly asked AI companies to report incidents like this. OpenAI faced criticism for firing … Read more
What happens if, instead of training a neural network to play a game, we take the wiring diagram of a real biological nervous system and connect it to Flappy Bird? That is what I wanted to explore with MaleCNS, a reconstructed connectome of the adult male Drosophila central nervous system. The interesting part is that … Read more
This week in AI was packed with major model launches, agent breakthroughs, and growing attention to safety. Google unveiled Gemini 4 Argon, OpenAI introduced Dots and GPT-6.1 Sol, and Anthropic launched Claude Sonnet 5.5. Meanwhile, Cloudflare and llama.cpp pushed decision models further into the spotlight, NVIDIA introduced a new Open Agent Safety Platform, and the … Read more
