Fake it ‘til you make it? AI company Perplexity just launched its new ‘Perplexity Computer,’ a new platform that “reasons, delegates, searches, builds, remembers, codes, and delivers” in what Perplexity is calling a “general-purpose digital worker” somewhere between OpenClaw and Claude Cowork. Users describe an outcome, and the system spins up sub-agents that can browse, code, connect to apps, and autonomously handle tasks.

The guide provides essential information about major app categories and basic needs and the complete development procedure required for market introduction of a FinTech product.
Alibaba's Qwen team dropped the Qwen 3.5 Medium Series - four models (35B-A3B, 122B-A10B, 27B, and Flash), where the headline act is a 35B model activating just 3B parameters per token that outperforms last gen's 235B flagship. Architecture over scale, plain and simple.
Claude Code now has a Remote Control feature that lets you continue a local coding session from your phone, tablet, or any browser. Just run /remote-control and scan a QR code. Everything still runs on your machine (nothing moves to the cloud), and conversations stay synced across all connected devices. Currently available as a research preview on Pro and Max plans.
Cursor has launched a new version of its cloud agents that each get their own isolated virtual machine with a full development environment, the ability to interact with the software they're building, and the tools to produce artifacts like videos, screenshots, and logs to prove their work.

Gucci just released a set of AI-generated images to promote creative director Demna's debut runway show at Milan Fashion Week on Friday — with the brand facing backlash over the ‘cheap’ use of the tech for a high-end brand.

Imagine this. You open your phone to an alert. It says, “you spent $236,000,000 more this month than you did last month.”
If you were the top bidder at Sotheby’s fall auctions, it could be reality.
Sounds crazy, right? But when the ultra-wealthy spend staggering amounts on blue-chip art, it’s not just for decoration.

The contemporary and post war segments have even outpaced the S&P 500 overall since 1995.*
Now, over 70,000 people have invested $1.2 billion+ across 500 iconic artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.
How? You don’t need Medici money to invest in multimillion dollar artworks with Masterworks.
Thousands of members have gotten annualized net returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8% from 26 sales to date.
