METR just tested an early Claude Mythos Preview, and the headline number is huge: a predicted 50%-time-horizon of at least 16 hours. This does not mean Claude can work alone for 16 hours straight. It means the model has about a 50% chance of finishing tasks that would take a skilled human around 16+ hours.

Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is a lightweight open messaging protocol. IoT trends provide resource-constrained network clients with a simple way for distributing telemetry information in low-bandwidth environments.

MolmoAct2 from Allen Institute for AI and University of Washington introduces a fully open Vision-Language-Action model for robots. It can reason about scenes, understand spatial tasks, and control real robot actions. Big shift: open robot models may move beyond demos into real tasks like cleaning, washing dishes, wetlab work, and pouring tea.

Ctx2Skill helps LMs learn rules and procedures from complex documents without human labels or outside feedback. It uses a multi-agent self-play loop where a Challenger creates tasks, a Reasoner solves them, and a Judge gives feedback. Key result: it improves models like GPT-4.1, GPT-5.1, and GPT-5.2 on context learning tasks.

Anthropic’s new tool translates Claude’s activations into plain English, exposing test-aware suspicions and hidden motivations the model won’t verbalize.

On WhatsApp and the web widget, agents now process images, PDFs, audio, contacts, and location pins. A photo of a router or an insurance form gets resolved in one continuous thread without human handoff.

A new agentic AI codenamed Hatch will let users send shopping intent to Instagram, then run errands across the app to find and buy products. Late-2026 debut, running on Meta’s Muse Spark LLM.

Spotify launched Personal Podcasts, so agents like OpenClaw, Claude Code, or OpenAI Codex can turn notes, briefings, or study plans into private podcasts in your library. Whether you’re listening on your morning commute or through your speakers at home, Spotify moves with you throughout your day. But being everywhere only matters if everything you want to hear is there.
