🤖 Perplexity launches “Computer” multi-agent system in $200 Max plan

Perplexity introduced Perplexity Computer, a multi-agent system designed to handle long, compound tasks. It is available only in the $200 per month Max plan and currently works on desktop web.

Users submit a prompt, and Computer splits it into subtasks. Different agents collect data, draft reports or presentations, and call APIs from connected services like Gmail, GitHub and Notion.

Opus 4.6 appears to act as the main orchestrator, assigning specific tasks to models from OpenAI, xAI or Google when needed. Multi-model coordination is positioned as the core feature.

🗡️ Ultrasonic knife enters the consumer kitchen at $400

Seattle Ultrasonics’ C-200 is now on the mass market, and Engadget reviewed it after a month of use. The knife costs $400, or $500 with the recommended magnetic wireless charger.

Inside the handle is a piezo element that makes the blade vibrate 33,000 times per second.

🔸 The effect reduces cutting effort by up to 50%.

🔸 The blade is triple layered AUS-10 steel with a 13° edge per side.

🔸 The knife weighs 328 g and runs about 20 minutes per charge.

Reviewers report cleaner cuts on dense foods like pork belly and tuna, with less sticking to the blade. It can overheat after 15+ minutes of continuous use and shut off briefly.

Ultrasound has moved from lab tech into premium kitchen hardware.

🤖 Google brings Gemini task automation to Android phones

Google is rolling out AI task automation in Android. On Pixel 10 and upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 devices, Gemini will be able to open apps and perform actions on behalf of the user.

A user can ask Gemini to order an Uber to the airport. Gemini launches the app in a virtual window, selects the ride details and prepares the booking, with final confirmation left to the user. If choices are needed, it asks. At launch, Uber and Grubhub are supported.

The feature will become part of Android 17. Gemini 3 powers the system, navigating app interfaces through reasoning and simulated clicks, with optional developer frameworks to streamline integration.

🎬 Belgian duo turns AI parody ad into 7M views for AiCandy

AiCandy, founded in 2025, broke out after two Belgian creators released a 40 second AI generated ad.

The video aged Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Sam Altman and promoted “Energym,” a fictional 2036 fitness club where unemployed people pedal to power the AI that replaced them.

The clip reached 5M views across social platforms. A U.S. senator commented on X that it “doesn’t look like a parody.”

Within a day, the creators received a job offer from The Dor Brothers and multiple collaboration requests.

One short AI video pushed a small studio into global feeds.

📈 New benchmark ranks LLMs on ability to push back on bad prompts

A new benchmark measures how often language models recognize nonsense in a prompt instead of going along with it.

The chart shows three outcomes: green means the model flagged the issue, yellow means partial objection, red means it complied.

Most of the Claude family scored highest on detecting flawed or misleading prompts.

📺 Casio built a pocket TV back in 1986

In 1986, Casio released the Pocket TV-200, a portable television that ran on 2 AA batteries for about 2–3 hours.

The device used a natural light system. Light passed through a monochrome LCD matrix, and the final image was reflected onto a mirror inside the unit.

Long before smartphones, Casio was already experimenting with handheld screens powered by simple hardware.

⭕️ Anthropic adds 1-minute memory transfer to Claude

Anthropic introduced a simple way to move long-term memory from another AI into Claude. The update comes as more users switch from ChatGPT to Claude.

Users can export saved context from their previous assistant and paste it into Claude’s memory settings. The process takes about a minute and avoids re-explaining preferences or project details.

Anthropic provides a ready-made prompt to use in ChatGPT or Gemini, then asks users to copy the response into Claude.

🎙 Claude Code rolls out voice mode to first 5% of users

Voice mode is now live in Claude Code for about 5% of users, with a broader rollout planned in the coming weeks. Access appears via a note on the welcome screen, and can be toggled with /voice.

It works as push-to-talk. Hold space, speak, release. The trannoscript streams directly at the cursor position, so users can mix typing and voice in the same prompt.

Voice mode is included at no extra cost. Trannoscription tokens do not count against rate limits. It is rolling out across Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans.

🤖 GPT-5.4 leak points to massive context window and new reasoning mode

Reports say OpenAI’s upcoming GPT-5.4 could bring a context window of up to 2M tokens along with persistent memory. That would allow the model to work with large codebases and long document sets without constant re-prompting.

The model is also expected to support full-resolution image processing for PNG, JPEG, and WebP files. That matters for dense screenshots, technical diagrams, UI layouts, and documents with small text where downscaling usually loses information.

Another addition is a new speed-priority tier plus an “extreme” reasoning mode. This mode reportedly allows the model to spend more compute on difficult tasks, aimed at research workflows and long multi-step jobs.

Mentions of GPT-5.4 briefly appeared in pull requests inside the public Codex repository before being removed. Prediction markets currently assign a 55% chance of release before April 2026 and 74% before June.

Ⓜ️ Meta smart glasses videos reviewed by data workers in Kenya

A report by Svenska Dagbladet describes how footage from Meta’s AI smart glasses is reviewed by human data labelers. Journalists visited a Sama office in Nairobi, where workers analyze videos to help train Meta’s AI systems.

Workers say they watch recordings captured by users in everyday situations. The tasks include labeling objects in videos and checking chatbot responses. Some clips contain sensitive scenes, including private moments at home or visible financial information.

The investigation also looked at how users can control their data. The glasses require internet connectivity because AI processing happens on Meta’s servers. Journalists say they could not get a clear explanation from Meta on how users can fully prevent their videos or conversations from being used.

The report suggests that most users would likely keep using the device even if they knew their footage might be reviewed.
