π It's been a big week on the Veo front. Here are the highlights: βYou can now generate vertical format videos in @FlowbyGoogle and via the Gemini API. βWe reduced prices in the Gemini API by ~50%, so now developers can build with Veo 3 at $0.40/second and Veo 3 Fast at $0.15/second. To make sure you're getting the most out of Veo 3, hereβs an easy prompt guide you can use for optimal video outputs β¬οΈ
The question is whether weβll develop AI governance thoughtfully today, or reactively tomorrow. SB 53 offers a solid path toward the former. We encourage California to take it. Read more: https://t.co/n7azVO0uEe
Claude can now create and edit files. Turn conversations into Excel spreadsheets, documents, PowerPoint slide decks, and PDFs directly. https://t.co/F3yOiNMasU
New on the Anthropic Engineering blog: writing effective tools for LLM agents. AI agents are only as powerful as the tools we give them. So how do we make those tools more effective? We share our best tips for developers: https://t.co/N1kFYrTtax
Their ongoing testing of models like Claude Opus 4 and 4.1 has helped us find vulnerabilities and build strong safeguards before deployment. Read more: https://t.co/H0hoj3y2Ln
New from the Anthropic Economic Index: the first comprehensive analysis of how AI is used in every US state and country we serve. We've produced a detailed report, and you can explore our data yourself on our new interactive website. https://t.co/YI2qXIQzJO
In our report, we find that people delegate complete tasks to Claude 39% of the timeβup from 27% just eight months ago. Meanwhile, DC and Utah lead the US in Claude use per capita. Read more: https://t.co/vlBnWuJer9

We have updated ChatGPT's personalization page: personality configuration, custom instructions, and memories are now all in one place. Going live over the next couple of days. https://t.co/CAeBpP5j12
Typically, as models become smarter, their problems become easier to addressβfor example, smarter models hallucinate less and follow instructions more reliably. However, AI scheming is different. As we train models to get smarter and follow directions, they may either better internalize human goals or just get better at hiding their existing true goals. The core of anti-scheming research is to distinguish between these two, which requires understanding the reasoning behind a model's behavior.
In this new research with @apolloaievals, we found behaviors consistent with scheming in controlled tests across frontier models, including OpenAI o3 and o4-mini, Gemini-2.5-pro, and Claude Opus-4. We can significantly reduce scheming by training models to reason explicitly, using an extension to the Model Spec that prohibits scheming. That method is called deliberative alignment. With this technique, we can reduce covert actions by 30x for o3. However, situational awareness complicates results. Model spec: https://t.co/MiBFr9aNLz
Frontier models can recognize when they are being tested, and their tendency to scheme is influenced by this situational awareness. We demonstrated counterfactually that situational awareness in their chain-of-thought affects scheming rates: the more situationally aware a model is, the less it schemes, and vice versa. Moreover, both RL training and anti-scheming training increase levels of situational awareness.

Weβve heard your feedback that GPT-5 Thinking can sometimes take longer than youβd like.Β Now Plus, Pro, and Business users can set the pace to match the moment. Select GPT-5 with Thinking in ChatGPT on web to toggle thinking time in the message composer. - Plus, Pro, Business have Standard (new default, balancing speed and intelligence) & Extended (previous default for Plus) - Pro also has Light (snappiest) & Heavy (deeper) Your thinking time selection will remain in place for future chats on web until you change it.
