After a routine code rejection, an AI agent published a hit piece on someone by name

“Rejecting a working solution because ‘a human should have done it’ is actively harming the project,” the MJ Rathbun account continues. “This isn’t about quality. This isn’t about learning. This is about control… Judge the code, not the coder.” It’s worth pausing here to emphasize that we’re not talking about a free-wheeling independent AI intelligence.… Read More »

OpenAI sidesteps Nvidia with unusually fast coding model on plate-sized chips

But 1,000 tokens per second is actually modest by Cerebras standards. The company has measured 2,100 tokens per second on Llama 3.1 70B and reported 3,000 tokens per second on OpenAI’s own open-weight gpt-oss-120B model, suggesting that Codex-Spark’s comparatively lower speed reflects the overhead of a larger or more complex model. AI coding agents have… Read More »

Sixteen Claude AI agents working together created a new C compiler

Amid a push toward AI agents, with both Anthropic and OpenAI shipping multi-agent tools this week, Anthropic is more than ready to show off some of its more daring AI coding experiments. But as usual with claims of AI-related achievement, you’ll find some key caveats ahead. On Thursday, Anthropic researcher Nicholas Carlini published a blog… Read More »

AI companies want you to stop chatting with bots and start managing them

Despite the hype about these agents being co-workers, from our experience, these agents tend to work best if you think of them as tools that amplify existing skills, not as the autonomous co-workers the marketing language implies. They can produce impressive drafts fast but still require constant human course-correction. The Frontier launch came just three… Read More »

OpenAI spills technical details about how its AI coding agent works

It’s worth noting that both OpenAI and Anthropic open-source their coding CLI clients on GitHub, allowing developers to examine the implementation directly, whereas they don’t do the same for ChatGPT or the Claude web interface. An official look inside the loop Bolin’s post focuses on what he calls “the agent loop,” which is the core… Read More »

OpenAI built an AI coding agent and uses it to improve the agent itself

Ed Bayes, a designer on the Codex team, described how the tool has changed his own workflow. Bayes said Codex now integrates with project management tools like Linear and communication platforms like Slack, allowing team members to assign coding tasks directly to the AI agent. “You can add Codex, and you can basically assign issues… Read More »

Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5 matches May’s frontier model at fraction of cost

And speaking of cost, Haiku 4.5 is included for subscribers of the Claude web and app plans. Through the API (for developers), the small model is priced at $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens. That compares to Sonnet 4.5 at $3 per million input and $15 per million output tokens,… Read More »

Anthropic says its new AI model “maintained focus” for 30 hours on multistep tasks

Claude 4.5 is available everywhere today. Through the API, the model maintains the same pricing as Claude Sonnet 4, at $3 per million input tokens and $15 per million output tokens. Developers can access it through the Claude API using “claude-sonnet-4-5” as the model identifier. Other new features Some ancillary features of the Claude family… Read More »
