Anthropic Just Upgraded Claude Without Mythos:

Anthropic just released Claude Opus 4.7, its most capable public model yet. It codes better, sees sharper, and now double-checks its own work. Mythos, the actually best model? Still locked away.

Things to Know:

  • Better at Hard Coding Tasks: Opus 4.7 handles complex, multi-step engineering with less hand-holding. Users say they can now hand off their hardest work without hovering over it.

  • Vision Got a Real Upgrade: The model processes images at higher resolution now. That, combined with stronger instruction-following, makes it feel noticeably sharper on real tasks.

  • Cybersecurity Guardrails Baked In: Anthropic deliberately dialed back Opus 4.7's cyber capabilities. Security pros need to apply through a new Cyber Verification Program for legitimate use.

  • Benchmarks Are Close but Clear: Opus 4.7 beats GPT-5.4 and Gemini 3.1 Pro on most key tests. It still trails Mythos Preview, which stays gated to a small, handpicked group of companies.

Pricing stays the same as Opus 4.6, and it's live on all Claude products, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, and Microsoft Foundry. Claude Code also gets a new "/ultrareview" command that flags logic gaps, not just syntax errors.

OpenAI Codex Just Became Way More Powerful:

OpenAI just turned Codex into something much bigger than a coding assistant. It can now control your Mac, browse the web, generate images, and remember how you work. All in one app, no tab-switching needed.

Things to Know:

  • Computer Use Is Now Real: Codex can see your screen, move a cursor, click, and type inside other Mac apps. It does this in the background while you keep working, completely uninterrupted.

  • A Browser That Talks Back: There is now a built-in browser powered by OpenAI's Atlas tech. You can comment directly on web pages to give Codex precise, visual instructions for your project.

  • Images Without Leaving the App: Codex now uses gpt-image-1.5 for in-app image generation. No switching to ChatGPT. Build mockups, game assets, and front-end visuals right inside your workflow.

  • Automation That Works While You Sleep: Codex can schedule tasks for itself and pick them back up across days or weeks. It also launched with over 90 new plugins covering tools like Slack, Notion, and GitLab.

Codex now has 3 million weekly active users, and OpenAI is clearly building toward a single superapp. Computer use is Mac-only for now, and EU and UK users are still waiting on a few features.

Chrome AI Mode Now Browses Right Beside You:

Google just updated AI Mode in Chrome, and tab-switching headaches are mostly over now. You can browse a page and keep your AI search open at the same time. It is like having a research assistant who never loses your spot.

Things to Know:

  • Split-Screen Browsing Is Here: Clicking a link in AI Mode now opens it side by side, not in a new tab. You keep asking questions without losing your original search thread.

  • Your Open Tabs Become Context: A new "plus" menu lets you pull open tabs, images, or files directly into your AI search. Mix and match sources without bouncing between windows.

  • Follow-Up Questions Get Smarter: AI Mode reads the page you have open alongside it to answer specific questions. Ask things like "is this easy to clean?" and it pulls from that exact product page.

These updates are live in the US right now, with other regions getting access soon. Google is clearly building AI Mode into a permanent research layer inside Chrome itself. Whether you are shopping, studying, or just going deep on a topic, this changes how that feels.

How to Write Better X Threads Faster Using AI:

Writing a good thread is harder than it looks. The opening has to hook, the middle has to flow, and the whole thing has to stay consistent in tone from start to finish. Most people either rush it or overthink it.

Typefully is a writing environment built specifically for X that uses AI to help you get from draft to publish faster without sacrificing quality.

Here's what it does:

  • Distraction-free writing: No notifications, no feed, just you and your thread. The clean interface alone makes the writing process faster.

  • AI-powered editing: Condense long sections, fix grammar, and adjust tone directly inside the editor without switching to another tool.

  • Thread starter suggestions: If your opening isn't landing, the AI helps you craft a hook that actually grabs attention.

  • Consistency and flow checks: The AI flags readability issues and keeps the tone consistent across the entire thread.

  • Convert to a blog post: Turn your finished thread into a single long-form article with one click. Useful for repurposing content across platforms.

If you post threads regularly on X and you're still writing them in Notes or Google Docs before copy-pasting, this is a cleaner way to do it.

The Lonely Bear Curls On Thin Ice:

Prompt:

"A lone polar bear lies curled on its side atop a tiny, angled ice floe in the open sea, its body covering nearly the entire surface. Head resting forward, paws tucked close, hind legs following the slope. Dark water surrounds the floe as a pale sky frames its isolation. Photorealistic, hyper-detailed, dynamic lighting, sharp focus, award-winning quality."
