1. Google built an elite team to close the coding gap with Anthropic and planned nearly two million new AI chips, entering talks with Marvell for custom designs for its data centers.

2. OpenAI added a Chronicle feature to Codex that tracked users' on-screen activity to remember their work context for future tasks, and the feature amplified familiar security risks.

3. Moonshot AI released Kimi K2.6 as an open-weight model designed to match GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6 on coding benchmarks and to run up to 300 agents in parallel.

4. Adobe unveiled a new enterprise agent platform to counter AI-native competitors while the company sought a new chief executive.
