Cohere has released Transcribe, a 2 billion parameter open-source automatic speech recognition model that the company claims tops the Hugging Face Open ASR Leaderboard with a 5.42% word error rate. The model supports 14 languages and is available under Apache 2.0 license, outperforming OpenAI's Whisper Large v3 and competing models on both accuracy and throughput metrics.

Meta's FAIR lab released TRIBE v2, an AI model that predicts human brain activity from images, audio, and text. Trained on over 1,000 hours of fMRI data from 720 subjects, the model maps predictions to 70,000 voxels and often matches group-average brain responses more accurately than individual brain scans.
Replit has released Agent 4, a major update that fundamentally restructures how product teams design, collaborate, and build. The release replaces Design Mode with an infinite Design Canvas, moves from fork-and-merge to shared real-time collaboration, and enables concurrent planning and execution.
Google has launched a memory import feature for Gemini that lets users transfer their chat history, memories, and preferences from competing AI services like ChatGPT and Claude. The feature works by exporting conversation data and personal context from your existing AI service, then importing it into Gemini to enable faster personalization.
Suno has released version 5.5 of its AI music generator with three new features: Voices (record/upload your singing voice for AI songs), Custom Models (fine-tune the model on your music library), and My Taste (personalized genre/mood recommendations). The update is available to Pro and Premier subscribers.
Cybersecurity stocks fell sharply Friday after reports that Anthropic is testing Mythos, described as its most powerful model yet, with enhanced capabilities that present potential security risks. CrowdStrike and Palo Alto Networks dropped 7%, while Tenable fell nearly 11%. Anthropic plans a cautious rollout due to cybersecurity implications.
OpenAI is introducing plugins for Codex that bundle skills, integrations, and connectors into shareable workflow packages. The move directly addresses Claude Code's lead among developers and positions Codex beyond coding into broader agentic work platforms. Over 20 plugins are currently available, including integrations with Figma, Notion, Gmail, Slack, and Google Drive.
A data breach at Anthropic exposed internal documents detailing an unreleased AI model the company describes as its most powerful to date. Anthropic confirmed it is already testing the model with select customers, claiming significant advances in reasoning, coding, and cybersecurity. The breach resulted from a misconfiguration in Anthropic's content management system that automatically made ~3,000 uploaded files publicly accessible.
Chroma has released Context-1, a 20B parameter Mixture of Experts model trained specifically for retrieval tasks that require multi-hop reasoning. The model decomposes complex queries into subqueries, performs parallel tool calls, and actively prunes its own context mid-search—achieving comparable performance to frontier models at a fraction of the cost and up to 10x faster inference speed.
Google announced 'switching tools' that allow users to transfer chat histories and personal information directly into Gemini from competing chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude. The feature uses a prompt-based system for importing memories and accepts zip file uploads for chat logs. This move targets Gemini's lagging consumer adoption, which sits at 750 million monthly active users compared to ChatGPT's 900 million weekly active users.
Anthropic on Wednesday adjusted Claude's session limits for Free, Pro, and Max subscribers during peak demand hours (05:00-11:00 PT / 13:00-19:00 GMT). Users can now consume five hours of allowance in under five hours during these periods, while off-peak usage maintains standard pacing. Approximately 7% of Pro tier users will hit limits they previously wouldn't have encountered.
Continue released v1.0.65 for JetBrains IDEs and v1.3.36 for VS Code, focusing on stability fixes. The update addresses IDE freezing issues in JetBrains, adds compatibility with DeepSeek's reasoning model, and fixes multiple memory leaks and crash conditions.
Google is launching "Import Memory" and "Import Chat History" features in Gemini that let users transfer their preferences and past conversations from other AI chatbots. The tools use copy-paste prompts and .zip file uploads to help users avoid retraining a new AI model on their preferences.
