Good Morning,
OpenAI won U.S. approval to broadly release GPT-5.6 after a staggered rollout, while Microsoft is shifting more Office AI prompts to its in-house MAI models as rising inference costs push Big Tech to rethink where workloads run.
Anthropic is expanding Claude Cowork to web and mobile as agents move deeper into office workflows, and TeraWulf signed a 20-year, $19 billion lease with Anthropic for a Kentucky AI infrastructure campus.
Big Tech is expected to lift AI capex 74% to $168 billion in Q2, SK Hynix is planning a U.S. ADR offering worth about $28 billion as AI memory demand surges, and Chinese AI labs are shifting more spending toward local chips as DeepSeek and Z.ai pursue in-house hardware.
Meta is pushing further into generative media with Muse Image and a preview of Muse Video, even as it faces a claimed $1.4 trillion penalty risk from teen mental-health lawsuits brought by four states.
Here’s your daily update.

You've seen the AI demos. Viktor does it without you watching.
The AI tool you tried last quarter waited for a prompt, hallucinated a number, then asked if you'd like a summary.
Viktor opened a PR at 2am, rebased it against main, ran your test suite, and posted a note in #eng: "Two flaky tests in payments service, both pre-existing. Recommended merging after fixing them." Then drafted the customer reply for the support ticket the bug created.
That's 619K autonomous actions per day across 20,000+ teams. Not chat replies. Real work shipped to GitHub, Stripe, Linear, Notion, and 3,000+ other tools, from inside Slack and Microsoft Teams.
You don't supervise him any more than you supervise a senior engineer.
SOC 2 certified. Your data never trains models.
"It's what you probably originally thought AI was going to be when you first heard of it in sci-fi movies." Tyler, CEO.
