Astral builds widely used Python developer tools focused on speed and reliability. 

OpenAI plans to integrate Astral’s tools into its Codex coding platform. 

Codex already has over 2 million weekly users, with usage growing rapidly. 

The move comes as Claude Code gains traction among developers, increasing competition. 

Astral’s open-source tools will continue to be supported after the acquisition. 

Apple is blocking or restricting updates for apps that allow users to generate and execute code dynamically.

These apps often let users build software instantly using AI prompts, a core part of vibe coding.

Apple says this violates long-standing rules against apps changing their functionality via downloaded code.

The company is reinforcing stricter review guidelines focused on security, control, and app stability. 

Developers are being asked to modify how their AI coding tools work to stay compliant.

Comet is an AI-first browser that combines search, chat, and task automation in one interface. 

Users can summarize pages, research topics, shop, and schedule tasks without leaving the browser. 

The browser acts as a “personal assistant,” adapting to user behavior and organizing workflows. 

It brings Perplexity’s agentic capabilities from desktop and Android to iOS for the first time. 

The iPhone version focuses on AI-assisted browsing rather than just traditional navigation. 

Meta announced it has acquired Moltbook, an AI-powered social network designed around intelligent agents and automated community interactions. The move positions Meta to experiment with AI-native social experiences where bots help manage communities, moderate discussions, and personalize content feeds as competition grows around AI-driven social platforms.

OpenAI is acquiring Promptfoo, an AI security testing platform used by many Fortune 500 companies, to strengthen the safety layer of its Frontier AI platform. Promptfoo’s automated red-teaming and risk detection tools will help enterprises test AI agents for vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and reliability before deploying them at scale.

Anthropic introduced a new AI-powered Code Review tool in beta for Team and Enterprise users. The system deploys multiple AI agents to analyze each pull request, identifying bugs, security issues, and logic flaws that developers might miss. Early testing suggests reviews averaging around 20 minutes can produce deeper feedback than traditional manual checks.

Google launched new Gemini AI features for Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drive, initially for Ultra and Pro subscribers. The updates allow users to draft documents, generate spreadsheets, and create presentations using AI that pulls context from files, Gmail, and web data, while Drive now adds AI-powered summaries and smarter search tools.

Advanced Machine Intelligence (AMI), a Paris-based startup cofounded by AI pioneer Yann LeCun, raised over $1 billion and reached a $3.5 billion valuation. The company aims to develop “world model” AI systems that understand physical environments and reasoning, pushing beyond language models into robotics, manufacturing, and biomedical applications.
