ChatGPT debuts ‘Pulse’

Also, a brand new 2025 DORA Report finds 90% of coders use AI day by day, but only 24% trust it; Gemini Code Assist generates two hours of labor per engineer per day, powering over 1 / 4 of Google’s latest code. The report recommends “small-batch workflows” and guardrails to balance speed with reliability. Read more.

Meta is sharpening AI for real-world complexity with three major moves. The Agents Research Environment (ARE) and Gaia2 benchmark stress-test agents in dynamic simulations filled with stateful apps, async events, deadlines, API failures, and multi-agent coordination. Gaia2 scores resilience and accuracy, not only output correctness. Early runs across 1,120 mobile tasks put GPT-5 at the highest, setting a high bar for multi-agent robustness.

On coding, Meta’s 32B-parameter Code World Model (CWM) goes beyond code generation. Trained on 120M Python execution traces and fine-tuned with reinforcement learning across coding, math, and reasoning tasks, it simulates execution line by line, predicts infinite loops, runtime behavior, and algorithm complexity. Benchmarks show 65.8% pass@1 on SWE-bench Verified, 68.6% on LiveCodeBench, 96.6% on Math-500, and 76% on AIME 2024, with a 131k-token context window and open checkpoints for experimentation.

Meta can be launching Vibes, a brand new feed in its Meta AI app and on meta.ai that generates short-form AI videos for users to browse, remix, and share.

The feature draws on AI models from Meta in addition to partnerships with Midjourney and Black Forest Labs, producing content starting from surreal animations to historical vignettes with minimal human input. Read more.

Copilot is not any longer sure to a single engine. Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4 and Opus 4.1 at the moment are embedded alongside OpenAI’s GPT models across Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio. In practice, meaning a research agent drafting a market report can run on Claude for sharper reasoning, or on GPT for faster narrative polish.

Copilot Studio takes it further with orchestration, letting enterprises assign different models to different steps of a workflow. A compliance-heavy check might sit on Claude, customer-facing copy on GPT-5, all stitched together right into a multi-agent system with fallback logic if one model is disabled. Early rollout is already live, with preview in two weeks and production by yr’s end.

On the content side, Microsoft is piloting a Publisher Content Marketplace (PCM), pitched to outlets in Monaco last week. As an alternative of flat fees, PCM would compensate publishers based on content usage inside AI products like Copilot, a step toward usage-linked royalties in an industry still dominated by one-off licensing deals.
