Anthropic was founded by OpenAI exiles. It’s adding one more. On Tuesday, former OpenAI co-founder Andrej Karpathy announced on X that he will be joining Anthropic, seemingly to work on the lab’s research and development team. “Personal update: I’ve joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative,” he wrote. “I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about educa

“We have been investing in developing more agentic models, meaning they can understand more about the world around you, think multiple steps ahead, and take action on your behalf, with your supervision,” Pichai explained.Gemini 2.0: Core features and availabilityAt the heart of today’s announcement is the experimental release of Gemini 2.0 Flash, the flagship model of Gemini’s second generation. It builds upon the foundations laid by its predecessors while

A new report from Bloomberg raises some uncomfortable questions about Salesforce’s marketing around Agentforce, the company’s AI platform. The platform has long been criticized on social media as “vaporware” (sometimes even in pro-Salesforce posts), and this Bloomberg report doesn’t look like it’s helping matters. Conventional wisdom—true or not—holds that we’re in the midst of something called the “SaaSpocalypse,” brought about by AI. The thinking goes th

One of the things artificial intelligence seems particularly adept at is cybersecurity—at least if you buy the marketing pitch of models like Anthropic’s Mythos, which supposedly spotted vulnerabilities that humans failed to patch for more than 20 years. But instead of putting cybersecurity experts out of work, AI has actually created a hiring spree, according to the New York Times. Citing headhunter companies that help place cyber engineers at major firms

On Thursday, Anthropic launched Claude Opus 4.8, the latest and most advanced version of its flagship AI model. It’s available everywhere at the same price as its predecessor, Opus 4.7 ($5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens). Opus 4.8 boasts industry-leading scores on tasks like agentic coding and agentic computer use, which is par for the course for a new Anthropic model. The key differentiator that’s being underscored by the compa

Battle lines are being drawn between two camps of developers: so-called vibe coders, on the one side—those who wholeheartedly embrace handing over complex coding tasks to AI tools—and on the other, those of a more puritan persuasion, who prefer to keep AI out of the codebase. Shots were fired this week when a German developer named Johannes Link added instructions to an open-source app he’d built, called jqwik, commanding the automatic and immediate deleti

The mechanism relies on a standardized DNS entry that serves as an entry point for an agent to publish its capab

I have a pet-project d9c, a terminal interface for Docker on remote servers. It runs locally, connects to the host via SSH, and nothing needs to be installed on the server. Inside the table, navigation is like in vim, commands are entered with a colon, logs, shell inside the container, compose. In short, it's k9s, but only for Docker. d9c But the article isn't about the interface. For the past few months, I've been doing almost everything through Claude Co
