Anthropic just released the next generation of Claude models: Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4! The models achieve SOTA performance in SWE-bench with a score of 72.5% for Opus and 72.7% for Sonnet Along with the model release, the models get a bunch of new abilities and features: - Extended thinking with tool use (beta): Both models can use tools—like web search—during extended thinking so the models can to alternate between reasoning and tool use to provide way better responses - Parallel tool execution: Both models can now use tools in parallel - Improved prompt adherence: The models now follow instructions more precisely than previous models - Better memory capabilities: The new models are better at extracting and saving key facts to maintain continuity and build tacit knowledge over time The pricing for the models remains consistent with previous Opus and Sonnet models: Opus 4 at $15/$75 per million tokens (input/output) and Sonnet 4 at $3/$15. Both models are available on the Anthropic API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud's Vertex AI. The Anthropic API also received some updates that should help build more powerful AI agents: - code execution tool - MCP connector - Files API - caching prompts for up to one hour Lastly, Claude Code is now generally available and it now supports background tasks via GitHub Actions and native integrations with VS Code and JetBrains. The models are already available in AI IDEs such as Cursor and GitHub Copilot. Read the full announcement post here: https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-4

Huge news! OpenAI reaches agreement to buy startup Windsurf for $3 Billion according to Bloomberg News. Windsurf is an AI code editor, similar to Cursor and GitHub Copilot. Windsurf and Cursor are the 2 most prominent players in the AI IDE space right now. Both of them have grown fast and shipped a ton new and innovative features extremely quickly to make software development with AI a breeze. OpenAI buying one of them is a big deal and could shake things up a lot. For example, Windsurf getting priority access to OpenAI models, or being included in the OpenAI subscription would definitely drive up the adoption for Windsurf and bring even more competition to Cursor. I'm excited to see where this goes & what both of them come up with next!

Google just released Gemini 2.5 Pro to Preview This includes releasing the API pricing and higher rate limits for paid users. However, looks like the higher rate limit is only available for Tier 3 users, which requires spending at least $1,000 on Gemini Pricing: Input (per 1M tokens): - $1.25, prompts <= 200k tokens - $2.50, prompts > 200k tokens Output (per 1M tokens): - $10.00, prompts <= 200k tokens - $15.00, prompts > 200k Grounding with Google Search costs $35 / 1,000 requests The experimental model is still available and free to use. Overall, the pricing is in line with the other models. The pricing is almost identical to Claude 3.7 Sonnet for prompts with over 200k tokens, and it is 50% off for shorter requests.

Cursor just raised $105M in their Series B! Cursor is an AI code editor that is now used by millions of programmers. Their own models now generate more code than almost any LLMs in the world and edit over a billion characters per day. They have also exceeded $100m in recurring revenue. Absolutely mindblowing 🤯 Their plan is to next create engineer of the future that is over 10x more effective than any one programmer and light the path to an entirely new form of programming where invention is effortless.
