Anthropic launched a series of connectors and plugins for the knowledge worker tool earlier this week aimed at 'turbo-charging' the capabilities of individual employees. The update marks the tool's transition into a true enterprise-grade product. Organizations can now connect Claude Cowork to tools like Google Drive, Gmail, DocuSign, and FactSet. They can also deploy customizable plugins that encode institutional knowledge and workflows. Anthropic Dials Back AI Safety Commitments (4 minute read) Anthropic is softening its core safety policy to stay competitive with other AI labs. The company previously paused development work on its model if it could be classified as dangerous, but it will end that practice if a comparable or superior model is released by a competitor. Anthropic faces intense competition with rivals that regularly release cutting-edge tools. The change in policy is unrelated to Anthropic's battle with the Defense Department over how its Claude tools should be used. Kilo launches KiloClaw, allowing anyone to deploy OpenClaw agents in production in 60 seconds (10 minute read) KiloClaw enables users to deploy OpenClaw agents in under 60 seconds without dealing with complex infrastructure setup. The service runs on Fly.io's multi-tenant VMs, offering robust security and persistent "always-on" capabilities with built-in monitoring. It integrates with the Kilo Gateway, offering access to over 500 models, and includes an innovative benchmarking tool, PinchBench, to optimize model selection for real-world tasks. 🧠 Deep Dives & Analysis Intelligence Yield (1 minute read) Everyone focuses on how hard a task can models solve. Benchmark data also captures how much work models need to get there. Opus 4.6 solves harder tasks, more reliably, with considerably less compute. The post contains charts comparing models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. Agents are not thinking, they are searching 🔗 (28 minute read) A lot of mysticism has built up around AI. The underlying technology is non-deterministic. This post provides a framework that creates as much determinism as possible despite that. AI models are searching toward a reward signal, and the environments they are in bound that search. Instead of trying to give models perfect instructions, focus on bounding their environments tightly enough that the search converges. Citrini's Scenario Is A Great But Deeply Flawed Thought Experiment (36 minute read) A recent viral essay about how AI's bullishness could be bearish is full of flaws and just a work of speculative fiction. It posits that AI's success will be bad for the economy rather than good. However, the reality is that the technology will create more opportunity in the market rather than destroy it. There may be transitional pains, but there probably won't be any unsolvable problems. 🧑‍💻 Engineering & Research The 5-Step Playbook for Finding the Value of AI (Sponsor) We love this practical guide from You.com that walks through a proven framework to identify, prioritize, and document high-value AI opportunities.

Security boundaries in agentic architectures (10 minute read) Agentic systems risk security breaches when agents execute generated code without proper boundaries. These systems should separate agent compute from generated code to prevent access to sensitive secrets. Combining isolated sandboxes with secret injection proxies enhances security by preventing credential theft or misuse during execution. Very Big Video Reasoning Dataset and Benchmark (4 minute read) The VBVR suite introduced over one million video clips across 200 structured reasoning tasks to support large-scale research in video reasoning. It also included VBVR-Bench, a rule-based and human-aligned evaluation framework designed for reproducible assessment and scaling studies. 🎁 Miscellaneous Head of Amazon's AGI lab is leaving the company (2 minute read) David Luan, head of Amazon's AGI lab, is leaving the company after less than two years. He was hired through an acqui-hire of his startup, Adept, leading efforts like the Nova frontier model to compete with major AI models. His departure follows a reorganization of Amazon's AGI division under cloud unit executive Peter DeSantis.
