Anthropic doubled claude code rate limits across all paid plans and signed a deal for spacex's colossus 1 supercomputer — 220,000+ nvidia gpus. Also hit a reported $900b valuation.

Android is getting a massive AI overhaul with gemini baked in. Amazon launched an AI shopping assistant in Alexa too. Everything has AI in it now I guess.
