Mark Zuckerberg's Biohub is partnering with Google and the federal government in its ambitious effort to use AI for generating vast quantities of biological data that can predict how cells behave.
OpenAI is rolling out GPT-6 with "Intelligent UI," a feature that turns answers into interactive interfaces with charts, buttons, and forms. The model can now respond while still thinking, cutting wait times by 44 percent. Paying customers get GPT-6 Sol, free users get GPT-6 Luna.
Anthropic's new Claude Haiku 5.5 crushes its predecessor in benchmarks, jumping from 15.7 to 72.4 percent on the OSWorld computer use test. Token prices drop by up to 90 percent, though a new tokenizer eats into some of those savings by consuming more tokens per task.
