Claude Code v2.1.58 expanded Remote Control to more users -- start a terminal session on your workstation, scan a QR code, and control it from your phone or tablet. Local context (filesystem, env vars, MCP servers) stays active even when you're away from your desk. Simon Willison notes it's "a little bit janky right now" but calls it a clear signal of where coding agents are heading. Currently Research Preview for Max tier. Combined with Anthropic's simultaneous announcement of scheduled tasks in Cowork, Claude Code is moving toward always-on, device-independent agent workflows.

For a month, Claude Code users were convinced the model had been "nerfed." Forums lit up. Conspiracy theories multiplied. People switched tools. Then on April 23, Anthropic did something unusual: they published a detailed post-mortem that named three specific bugs with exact d...
This one hit my inbox and I had to read it twice. Anthropic announced a partnership with SpaceXAI for the entire Colossus 1 data center in Memphis. 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs. 300+ megawatts. That's the largest single compute acquisition by any AI lab. Full stop. But the part that ma...
Alibaba released Qwen3.6-27B on April 22. Dense architecture. Open weights. 77.2% on SWE-bench Verified, within 3.7 points of Claude Opus 4.6. On SkillsBench, it scores 48.2% versus its own 397B MoE predecessor's 30.0%. That's a 77% improvement with 14.8x fewer parameters. Let...
