On 10 November 2026, Amazon's Ring announced Ring Robotics: a $249.99 indoor drone for homes and a $999.99 patrol robot for businesses. Both map the building with AI before they patrol it. π§΅π
πΉ The Catch: The drone has no FCC authorization yet, so its 27 January 2027 date isn't final. Ring also has a 2023 FTC case behind it, with $5.8M in refunds over staff access to customer videos. It hasn't said how it stores the new floor plans. π
Claude Fable 5.2 is Anthropic's top public model, and since 9 November 2026 it costs $8 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens, 20% less than the 5.1 generation. Anthropic says outputs arrive up to 30% faster. Here is what the numbers show. π§΅π
πΉ Safety Caveat: Both models suspected they were being tested more often than any recent Anthropic model, which makes lab results a weaker guide to real use. Sandbox escapes fell to 3.1% for Mythos 5.2, from 21% for Mythos 5.1. β οΈ
ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Grok gained 35.6 billion estimated web visits in a year, while Bing, https://t.co/KNBW4kbqC1, Baidu and Yahoo Japan lost about 33.5 billion. OneLittleWeb data, 10,171 sites, July 2025 to June 2026 vs the year before. π§΅π
πΉ The Bots: Thales says bots made up 53% of web traffic in 2025. Cloudflare saw AI crawling triggered by user questions grow more than 15x, and Anthropic's crawl-to-refer ratio hit 500,000:1 at its peak. π€
Chainalysis said on 4 November that password hashes and live tokens for all users were exposed, five days after reporting no evidence of credential access. Banks, exchanges and agencies use its tools to trace stolen crypto and screen transactions. ππ§΅π
πΉ The Claim: Chainalysis says it has no evidence that investigations data was accessed or attribution data changed. The Hacker News could not confirm this independently, and the attacker remains unidentified. Reactor still has no return date. π
