Anthropic's Claude Platform is now generally available on Google Cloud via an Anthropic-managed offering, giving customers full API feature parity with same-day access to new features and betas. It integrates with existing Google Cloud IAM credentials, consolidates billing into a single Google Cloud invoice, and counts usage toward existing commitments. Included features span Claude Managed Agents, prompt caching, web search, Files API, and computer use. Fast Mode on Claude Opus 5.5, offering up to 2.5x faster output, is also generally available on this offering.

OpenAI has made its Decisions API generally available, built on GPT-6 Luna to handle small, frequent application decisions up to 10x faster than GPT-6 Luna via the standard Responses API. Developers define a question and allowed answers, provide context as text, images, or native JSON, and receive a probability, choice, or score. New features include native GPT-Live integration, prompt caching, US and EU inference residency, and support for up to 400 questions per request. Pricing is $0.10 per million input tokens, with no output-token charges.

Canva has launched Canva Craft, its first in-house AI image generation model, developed with contributions from Leonardo.ai, which Canva acquired in 2024. The model works in two stages: interpreting prompts to plan spatial relationships and visual hierarchy, then generating images up to 2K resolution across 30 aspect ratios. Images can be converted into layered designs via Canva Magic. Craft is available to all users via Dream Lab and the Canva API, with lighter versions Craft-fast and Craft-ultrafast coming soon.

Microsoft's MAI-DxO AI diagnostic system outperforms physicians in accuracy at lower cost, according to research published in Science. On complex New England Journal of Medicine cases, MAI-DxO achieved 83% diagnostic accuracy versus 36% for physicians using reference resources. On typical emergency department cases from MIMIC-IV-ED, it reached 80% accuracy versus 47% for physicians. The system operates like a panel of virtual physicians debating diagnoses across multiple rounds. It achieves results at half or one-third the cost, and Microsoft plans real-world testing at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

Anthropic has donated Agent Skills, its open standard for giving AI agents specialized knowledge and workflows, to the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) under the Linux Foundation. Originally developed while building Claude Code and published as an open standard in December 2025, Agent Skills has been integrated by over 70 platforms including ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and VS Code. One million skills have been published and nearly 280 million installed. Engineers from Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI will maintain the standard, with David Soria Parra and Mahesh Murag as Lead Maintainers.

Ideogram has launched Vector 1.0, its first AI model for generating editable SVG files from text prompts or existing images. The model produces clean SVGs with smooth gradients, sharp typography, and detailed illustrations across styles including engraving, pop art, flat color, and line art. Outputs are fully editable in Illustrator or Figma, with colors, shapes, and gradients all adjustable. Vector 1.0 is live now on Ideogram's platform, API, and partner platforms.

Two critical PHP vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, are disrupting roughly 70 percent of the web after being discovered using GPT-5.6 Sol by a researcher at Calif. The flaws, rated 9.2 out of 10 in severity, affect every PHP version dating back 20 years and enable remote code execution. Wikipedia, WordPress, 4chan, DeviantArt, the Internet Archive, and Dutch and Finnish government sites were taken offline. Cloudflare logged millions of exploit attempts within hours of public disclosure, and some older sites face permanent shutdown.

Anthropic has launched Claude Duet, a proactive AI agent app now in research preview for US Pro and Max subscribers via waitlist. Available on iOS, Android, and claude.ai, it is built on Claude Opus 5.5 and acts as a background agent that sends morning briefings, monitors connected apps, and completes tasks while users step away. It supports over 6,000 integrations including Gmail, Slack, QuickBooks, and Shopify, and requires user approval before sending messages or making payments.

Anthropic has updated Claude Security, its enterprise vulnerability scanning tool, with continuous repository monitoring, automatic fix tracking, a new API, and MCP connector support. Now in public beta for Claude Enterprise customers, the tool scans code changes based on risk and complexity, marks findings resolved when fixes ship, and uses team-provided knowledge bases and threat models to prioritize results. Since April, thousands of organizations have used Claude Security to find over one million vulnerabilities. Enterprise customers receive $25,000 in monthly usage credits for two months.
