“4% of GitHub public commits are being authored by Claude Code right now. At the current trajectory, we believe that Claude Code will be 20%+ of all daily commits by the end of 2026. While you blinked, AI consumed all of software development.”
Must-read article, even if you can disagree with the analysis https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/claude-code-is-the-inflection-point?publication_id=6349492&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&r=219xw1

A book recommendation: Parmy Olson's Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT, and the Race That Will Change the World. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in AI. The book tells the origin stories behind the familiar names: how ChatGPT came to be, how DeepMind ended up under Google, how Anthropic and Claude were born as a reaction to OpenAI's shift in direction, and how GitHub Copilot and Gemini entered the picture.
What I found especially fascinating is the massive amount of research behind OpenAI and how open and idealistic the starting points were for everything until business took over. Musk, Altman, Hassabis and the other key figures have been on completely different pages: some care deeply about ethics and safety, some couldn't care less. At the same time, everyone acknowledges the risks and talks about them openly, yet they all act differently.
I've been tinkering with chatbots since the MegaHAL days and as a developer I use all of these tools often, so reading the behind-the-scenes story was captivating. Won the Financial Times Business Book of the Year 2024, and deservedly so.
PS. If you're planning to guilt trip me about using AI or being interested in it, I'll just block you.

Anthropic is spending millions of dollars to air commercials during Sunday night’s National Football League championship game to slam rival OpenAI for its plan to sell ads on its ChatGPT chatbot. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/08/tech/anthropic-super-bowl-ads-openai-chatgpt/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #anthropic #ai #superbowl #advertising #openai #chatgpt

Pelicans for Opus 4.6 and Codex 5.3 - I don't have much interesting to say about these models yet to be honest, they're both incremental improvements on their predecessors and very capable https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/two-new-models/
@simon it could be that the guys at #Anthropic know you and your "pelican on a bicycle" test, since you are a well known AI blogger
🏈 #Anthropic’s #Claude #SuperBowl commercial sharply frames ads-in-AI and could land another punch on #OpenAI’s #ChatGPT, on top of recent Oracle/Nvidia money drama and losing developers goodwill.
Claude fanboy or Anthropic holier-than-thou for rejecting ads (for now)? Nope‼️
Same issues remain: unclear training data, copyright use, scraping without consent, low transparency, black-box models, vague sustainability, ethics branding without oversight… but still, strong Super Bowl #ad...

The Pentagon is at odds with artificial-intelligence developer #Anthropic over safeguards that would prevent the government from deploying its technology to target weapons autonomously and conduct U.S. domestic #surveillance, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters.
The company's position on how its #AI tools can be used has intensified disagreements between it and the Trump administration, the details of which have not been previously reported.

Come la #intelligenzaArtificiale influisce sulla formazione delle competenze. Studio svolto nell'ambito del programma #Anthropic Fellows
Lo studio analizza come l’IA influenzi l’apprendimento nel coding. Sebbene migliori la produttività immediata, l’uso passivo compromette la comprensione concettuale e le capacità di debugging. Risulta fondamentale un impegno cognitivo attivo per evitare l'erosione delle competenze tecniche.

OpenAI and Anthropic are launching AI tools in health care, but their success may depend on transparency about reliability and accuracy, an issue that has already caused Google to fail in the sector. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/20/world/chatgpts-ai-health-care-push/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #ai #chatgpt #anthropic #gemini #claude #openai #healthcare #medicine
