Google and OpenAI escalated their rivalry at the forefront of artificial intelligence on the same day, with Google unveiling its most advanced AI research agent yet just as OpenAI released GPT 5.2, codenamed Garlic.  Google’s announcement centered on a major upgrade to Gemini Deep Research, which it described as a reimagined agent capable of long form reasoning, complex analysis, and enterprise grade investigation rather than simply generating research reports. The closely t

Anthropic is pushing AI coding assistants into the place developers already live all day: team chat.  On December 8, 2025, the company announced a beta “research preview” that brings Claude Code into Slack, letting developers delegate real coding tasks directly from a conversation thread instead of bouncing between Slack and an IDE. The shift matters because the competitive edge is starting to look less like raw model quality and more like workflow ownership, meaning who can

Accenture and OpenAI are deepening their relationship in a move that signals how quickly enterprise AI is becoming a standard part of consulting delivery, not just an client offering.  Under the agreement, Accenture plans to equip tens of thousands of its professionals with ChatGPT Enterprise, positioning it as the largest group of workers upskilled through OpenAI Certifications. The idea is straightforward but ambitious: by putting the same tools into daily consulting, oper

Alibaba’s newly relaunched Qwen AI app has rapidly become one of the most talked-about developments in the global artificial intelligence landscape, recording more than 10 million downloads within its first week of public beta. The surge marks one of the fastest early adoption curves seen in the consumer AI market, surpassing the initial momentum of tools like ChatGPT, Sora, and DeepSeek (Artificial Intelligence News). The explosive uptake reflects a strategic shift in how m

Anthropic has introduced Claude Opus 4.5, a significant upgrade to its most capable AI model and one built specifically to excel at coding, professional workflows, and long-running agent tasks.  Released shortly after updates to Google’s Gemini 3 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.1, the new model takes a different approach by focusing less on flashy content generation and more on dependable workplace performance (CNET). Anthropic says Opus 4.5 is designed for getting real work done, buildi

This surge was matched by equally impressive profitability: net income soared to $32 billion, up 65% year-over-year (TechCrunch; Yahoo Finance; Startup Ecosystem). Both figures blew past Wal

mimik, a global pioneer in device-first Continuum AI and agentic software, has taken a major step toward redefining artificial intelligence infrastructure by launching mimik UAE in partnership with Next71 Ltd and ASK Holding LLC. Announced during Abu Dhabi Autonomous Week, this strategic memorandum of understanding (MOU) marks a significant milestone in the United Arab Emirates’ (UAE) journey to become a world leader in AI and sovereign technology development (Financial Post)

Google’s latest innovation in artificial intelligence hardware marks a significant step toward the future of computing, as the company unveils its seventh-generation Tensor Processing Unit, dubbed Ironwood . These custom-built chips are designed specifically for artificial intelligence workloads and signal a major shift toward what Google calls the “age of inference.” Unlike Nvidia’s general-purpose GPUs, Google’s TPUs are application-specific integrated circuits, meaning the
