@HamidoFx1 Good but not in EU π
OPENAI π₯: Dots can now take sign-up codes from an email to complete a 2FA auth on your behalf when prompted.
More autonomy πͺπ
ICYMI π₯: Mistral Studio got a big upgrade this week. Users can now build and host AI apps and improve them based on real usage.
> Connect your systems - Connectors, Knowledge, Search Index, Secrets Manager: set up once, reuse them across every project.
> Build agents, workflows and apps - Agents for reasoning, workflows for deterministic steps, apps for addressing use cases.
> Deploy with one command - Studio runs them in production, with durable execution, scaling and recovery.
> Improve from real usage - Every run leaves a trace. Turn traces into evaluations and improve the next.
@HamidoFx1 My Bots now doing daily standups on Slack πͺπ
SpaceXSI is preparing to roll out / rolling out Slack integration for Grok Bot.
Users will be able to connect their bots to Slack individually and trigger them from Slack as well.
> "You can DM or @ mention X Marketer in Slack. Itβll respond with the same plugins, context, and memories it uses here."
This feature should arrive in the 1.1.0 build for macOS.
Antrhopic is also working on Invite functionality for Duet and a possibility to merge Claude organisations into one for Enterprise.
Anthropic is working on a collaborative mode for Claude Code Projects.
> Recent activity on the Projects page summarises the latest threads.
> "We don't have multiplayer yet," shared Lydia Hallie from Anthropic yesterday.
Yet π
> A project-level overview showing scheduled tasks and threads.
Claude Code Project improvements have been a focus for Anthropic for a while.
The upcoming collaborative experience seems similar to ChatGPT Spaces. Perplexity is working on a similar feature as well.

Claude in the cloud π
Claude for iOS is getting another layout redesign with Chats, Projects and Code being separate tabs on a side nav bar.
Other options like Dispatch or Personal Finance got moved into the profile menu.
I feel like a bottom nav was better π
META π₯: Muse now has Spaces!
Users can ask Muse to generate an interactive page on a specific topic or visualize certain data.
These spaces work like interactive artifacts powered by data from sources Muse can access.
I've asked it to create a space for "testing" and got an interactive playground. I think that Meta should now find a way to make these spaces shareable; that would be big.
Testing time! π
π¨ MUSE FEATURE ALERT π¨
Spaces are live in muse!
just tell muse what you want in chat and it'll build you a space and keep it up to date for you. pin it to your nav bar so muse always has the latest on what you're into.
here are a few of mine:
@sahkho A 3 month late congrats !
Taking Meta glasses to solve the number one point was a big unlock for me π
The feature can be accessed in Maket's photo upload dialog, on the Describe tab next to Upload.
Finished pieces are kept under My Objects, allowing them to be reused across rooms and projects.
The free plan includes 30 one-time credits!
Test it out π
https://t.co/VOatENFaTL
Maket has launched Text to Furniture, a feature that allows users to build 3D furniture objects.
Users can describe the furniture they want, such as an oval burl wood dining table, and have Maket create a 3D model that also accounts for its height, width, and depth.
That 3D model can be placed anywhere inside the floor plan and viewed in 3D, allowing a room to be planned with custom furniture.
META π₯: Muse and Meta AI apps now run on new specialized models trained with Muse Wonder.
Both ActiveΒ Memory and ActiveΒ Focus, introduced in Muse Wonder, are now available in Muse and MetaΒ AI.
The Personal Superintelligence Index is up 9%, and Active Memory Eval is up 14%.
Upgraded the models for Muse and Meta Al, bringing Active Memory and Active Focus from Muse Wonder to everyone. In Muse, these new specialized models are 2.4x less likely to forget critical info and are 67% better at self correcting and completing everyday tasks which means less repeating yourself and fewer dead ends.

In our own test, Drex Max flagged a sample invoice as a likely duplicate payment, with the full run costing less than a cent.
In Nace's tests, Drex Maxβs median answer time per request was 183 milliseconds, versus about 2 seconds for GPT-6 Sol.
Drex Max, Drex v2.0, and Drex v1.5 can be downloaded from Hugging Face and run locally.
Weights and code π

- https://t.co/NwI9rq5Pls
Nace AI has published a 51-page report on how it trained Drex, its family of open-weight AI models that pick the most likely answer from a fixed list of options.
Drex v1.5 was trained on 1.15 million example decisions with verified answers, covering tasks from reading contracts to spotting phishing emails.
In a second stage, a larger AI model taught Drex how confident to be in each answer, so its percentages match how often it is actually right.
Drex can be tested in Nace Console, where users upload documents with questions and receive a probability score for each answer.
How are Decision Models Trained?
Today, we are publishing the Drex Technical Report for the developer community! π
Discover details on how the State-of-the-art Open-Source decision models are trained with RLAF.

P.S. Drex Max 1.1 and Drex for Finance are closed sourced and designed for enterprise use-cases
