| 3 | 🧠 Automating your finances
An unreleased Money tab spotted in Claude’s iOS app would let users connect bank accounts and ask the AI about spending and financial plans.
Anthropic has not announced the feature.

| 4 | 🤔 OpenAI gets camera-ready
OpenAI reportedly bought Glass Imaging, a camera startup founded by former Apple engineers, in a deal valuing it above $300 million.
The obvious question is whether its technology ends up in OpenAI’s first device with Jony Ive.
What’s known so far:

| 5 | 😄 Not quite private
A researcher found that even Android’s strict “Block connections without VPN” setting may still leak a user’s real IP address.
Any app with basic internet access can use a standard system mechanism to send keepalive packets outside the VPN tunnel.
How the flaw works — and which devices may be affected:

| 6 | 🤔 Worth the fold?
Apple is the last major player into the wide-format foldable market, after Huawei, Samsung and Xiaomi all launched their own models first.
We compared all four to see where the iPhone Duo wins, where it falls short — and whether it’s actually worth buying:

| 7 | 🤐 Time to slow down
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says his push to slow advanced AI runs into geopolitics, with rivals, especially China, unlikely to accept limits if faster progress offers a military advantage.
The warning follows his call to slow frontier model development over catastrophic-risk concerns.

| 9 | 💅 Too popular for Pro
Demand for GPT-6 Astra has surged enough that OpenAI has temporarily paused new $200-a-month ChatGPT Pro subscriptions to ease pressure on its infrastructure.
Existing Pro users are unaffected, and other plans remain available.
Who’s affected — and how to still get Astra:

| 12 | 😽 Not much time left
Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon has left the company, warning that the race to build self-improving AI could eventually push the technology beyond human control and pose an existential threat.
He says the risk could become real before the end of the decade.

| 13 | 🙂 Not exactly lightweight
Experts found that the iPhone Duo is heavier than rival foldables, drops the Action Button and comes with water resistance that may weaken over time.
