Anthropic just shipped two new models, and the price tag is the plot twist. Mythos 5.2 and Fable 5.2 promise better coding, reasoning and vision, while Fable's input price drops from $10 to $8 per million tokens, making it cheaper than rival GPT-6 Astra. Responses also arrive 30% faster. It's Anthropic's first release since a METR report suggested its models are speeding up its own progress by roughly 2x.
Analytics on Live Data Without Leaving Postgres
When analytics on Postgres slows down, most teams add a second database. Then come the pipelines, the sync jobs, and a copy of your data that's always a little behind.
TimescaleDB takes a different approach: extend Postgres instead of splitting away from it. Hypertables partition your data automatically as volume grows. Hypercore compression cuts storage up to 95%. Continuous aggregates keep dashboards live without re-querying everything.
CERN runs Postgres this way for sensor data from the Large Hadron Collider.
No split architecture, no pipeline lag, no new query language to learn. Same SQL, same drivers, same tools.

JavaScript has gained massive popularity in the development community. It has transformed the web application development horizon. As per Stackoverflow Developer Survey 2023, JavaScript is the most popular programming, scripting, and markup language with a 63.61% vote share.
Storybook is a small, development-only workshop that lives alongside your app. It provides an isolated iframe that renders components without interference from app business logic and context, helping developers focus development on each variation of a component. Storybook 11 beta brings official skills and headless CLI tools that let agents iterate autonomously in a smaller package with faster context delivery.

AI agents that control browsers are nothing new. But they always had one annoying problem: they'd spin up a blank browser with zero logins, zero cookies, zero context. You'd have to re-authenticate everything. Painful. OpenCode Browse fixes that. Your agent now controls your actual browser, the one already signed into GitHub, Stripe, your staging environment, everything.
In this article, you will learn how to turn an open-weight language model into a decision model that classifies user intent, by fine-tuning Qwen3.5-4B on the CLINC150 dataset with Unsloth. Topics we will cover include: What decision models are, and how Unsloth’s FastDecisionModel scores a fixed set of choices instead of generating text.

AI News:
Google dropped two new AI chips aimed straight at the market Nvidia rules. TPU 8i Max fuses two chips into one package with double the computing power and memory speed. TPU 8tx keeps data and AI models protected even while they run, aimed at banks and governments. PyTorch and Hugging Face models now run on Google’s chips with no code rewrites.

Uber on Monday said it is launching a new service that lets customers reserve and pay for parking in major U.S. cities, about nine months after the ride-hailing company acquired parking app SpotHero. The acquisition, announced back in February, gives Uber access to a network of 13,000 garages, lots, and valet services across more than 400 cities
Meta thinks it can guess your age better than your birthday can. Instagram is expanding its AI age-estimation tool globally to spot suspected teens, even those using an adult birthday, and move them into stricter Teen Accounts. The AI scans profiles for clues like birthday posts and mentions of school grades, plus visual cues in photos and videos. It lands as Meta faces numerous lawsuits over harm to teens.
Muse Ember is Meta’s smallest AI, built for the repetitive tasks agents run all day. Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 5.5 matches Ember’s top score while costing about three times more per task. Haiku still beats Ember on one coding test, 34.9 to 27.2, and loses most of the others. Meta’s own Muse Spark 1.3 scores only one point higher on intelligence, yet each task on it runs 17 times the price.
Anthropic is spending $3.4 billion on natural gas turbines from Caterpillar, marking a dramatic shift for a company that has historically avoided owning physical infrastructure. The AI lab, which plans to go public this year, is acquiring generators capable of producing 1.7 gigawatts of electricity as demand for AI compute strains available power supplies.
