Anthropic this week unveiled Claude Haiku 4.5, a latency-optimized “small” member of its Claude 4 family that the company says delivers near-frontier reasoning and coding performance while running dramatically faster and cheaper than its mid- and top-tier siblings. According to Anthropic, Haiku 4.5 matches much of the practical developer performance of the company’s Sonnet model […]
Google today expanded its generative video toolkit with Veo 3.1, an incremental but consequential update to the company’s Veo family of video models. Positioned as a middle ground between rapid prototype generation and higher-fidelity production workflows, Veo 3.1 brings richer audio, longer and more coherent clip generation, tighter prompt adherence, and a number of workflow […]
xAI announced Imagine Imagine v0.9, a major update to its Grok “Imagine” text-and-image-to-video family that, for the first time in its pipeline, generates synchronized audio inside produced video clips — including background music, spoken dialogue and singing — while improving visual quality, motion and cinematic controls. The model was unveiled by xAI on October 7, […]
Veo 3.1 is Coming: Veo is Google’s family of AI video-generation models (Veo 3 / Veo 3 Fast are current). Google has recently shipped big Veo 3 improvements (vertical 9:16, 1080p, Veo 3 Fast, lower pricing) and there are rumors / social posts that Veo 3.1 is imminent — but Google has not published an […]
Claude Sonnet 4.5 (commonly shorted to Claude 4.5) is Anthropic’s September 29, 2025 frontier release focused on long-horizon agentic work, coding, and “computer use” (automating multi-step tasks across tools). It delivers large jumps in autonomous coding duration, tool use, and aligned behavior, while keeping the same per-token pricing as the previous Sonnet release. For teams […]
On Sept 25, 2025 Google released preview updates to Gemini 2.5 Flash and Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite. The previews bring faster, more efficient outputs, better instruction-following and multimodal abilities, and new -latest aliases so developers can test the newest builds easily.Now let’s take a look at what these two models specifically adjust. Core improvements Gemini 2.5 […]
Suno announced v5, which it calls its “most advanced / most powerful music model yet,” rolling it out to Pro & Premier users around Sept 23–25, 2025. Suno says v5 brings studio-grade fidelity, more natural vocals, and a new composition architecture — and it’s already being used to power a new product, Suno Studio. “With […]
DeepSeek-V3.1-Terminus is the most recent refinement of the DeepSeek family — a hybrid, agent-oriented large language model (LLM) that DeepSeek positions as a bridge between traditional chat models and more capable agentic systems. Rather than a brand-new base network, Terminus is presented as a targeted service-pack style update to the V3.1 line that focuses on […]
xAI announced Grok 4 Fast, a cost-optimized variant of its Grok family that the company says delivers near-flagship benchmark performance while slashing the price to achieve that performance by 98% compared with Grok 4. The new model is designed for high-throughput search and agentic tool use, and includes a 2-million-token context window and separate “reasoning” […]
Luma AI unveiled Ray3, a next-generation generative video model the company bills as the industry’s first inference-capable (what Luma frames as “reasoning”) video model — and the first to produce studio-grade High Dynamic Range (HDR) video natively, including exportable 10-, 12- and 16-bit ACES/EXR masters for professional pipelines. Ray3 not only understands language and visual […]
