Gemini added new creative tools, and the coding app Cursor was acquired by SpaceX.

CursorCursor, a popular coding app, is being acquired by SpaceX.
Cursor
SpaceX is buying Cursor for $60 billion in stock, just days after SpaceX went public.
Signs of SpaceX’s interest in Cursor appeared earlier this year when xAI hired two of the startup’s senior engineering leaders.
SpaceX is now leaning on Cursor to deliver on some of these promises.
Gemini
You can now edit videos directly in your conversations using Gemini Omni.
Google on Tuesday released the final version of its Android 17 operating system , as well as its counterpart for smartwatches, Wear OS 7.
The latest feature release underscores Google’s strategy of using its Android and Pixel devices to showcase its latest AI technology.
Perplexity
Smart media selection : Intelligently chooses between images, videos, or both based on query type
Configurable control : Enable/disable and override media types as needed
New max_tokens parameter : Control the maximum tokens extracted per page in search results. This gives you finer control over response size and costs
Claude
Then on Friday, the Trump administration renewed its war on the model maker by sending a letter demanding it ban non-Americans, including Anthropic’s employees, from accessing its.
Although the White House invoked an obscure export control directive when ordering the ban, the exact cause remains unclear.
This new drama comes after Anthropic famously refused to allow the government to use its models for mass surveillance of Americans and fully autonomous weapons.
Claude Code
Building on prior work , we introduce a framework for studying interactive agentic coding based on a privacy-preserving analysis of ~400,000 Claude Code sessions from between Octo.
The more domain expertise a person has, the more often the session ends in success—though the gap between intermediate and expert users is modest.
Agentic coding has taken off.
