Of ten models tested, GPT-6 Astra did best: it met about 70% of task requirements on average but fully completed 26.4% of tasks, including about 41% of multimodal tasks and just under 18% of repository tasks. Claude Opus 5 and Qwen3.8-Max came next. Scores fell as tasks combined more change types, and results for the same model varied by agent harness (Qwen3.8-27B scored 75% or 56% on larger overhauls depending on the environment). The benchmark uses one fixed request per task and AI judges, which can make mistakes.

Two near-term upgrades are expected: finer control of Apple's own apps with iOS 27.3, and integration with third-party apps likely in the spring. Gurman wrote that Apple wants Siri to keep track of goals and pursue ongoing tasks without the user starting each step, and that he believes it could become more like an agent as early as next year. Apple has not announced any of this.

In one test on about 350,000 files from Stainless (roughly 420 million tokens), scaling dreaming from two sessions to 128 raised wiki-only accuracy on 25 questions from 13% to 48% of graded criteria; search alone scored 53%, and search plus wiki rose from 54% to 61% while saving about 20,000 tokens per question. Anthropic also notes that wikis showed no clear gain on some tasks and that wrong notes can carry into later sessions.

The newspaper described it as the largest known single purchase of power-generation equipment by an AI lab. Anthropic did not acquire OnePWR and none of the supplier's employees transferred; the deal also included engineering and construction capabilities needed to install the generators. Anthropic had initially planned to buy power from OnePWR before instead taking over its existing Caterpillar generator orders; OnePWR had ordered the equipment from Caterpillar about two years earlier but needed financing to complete the transaction, the FT reported. Bloomberg's account matches the $3.4 billion, 1.7 GW, late-September, and Caterpillar-order details. Anthropic has not publicly confirmed the figures. Anthropic said on November 2 that it intends to spend more than $895 billion in the years ahead, mostly on computing capacity and infrastructure.

Anthropic's website promises Max subscribers "5x more usage than Pro" or "20x more usage than Pro" (Max 5x about $100 a month and Max 20x about $200). The plaintiffs say weekly limits are lower than those multiples: they calculated that, for one Claude model, Max 20x users get six times Pro's weekly usage and Max 5x users get 3.5 times. Tse wrote that the advertising is plausibly misleading, that customers who pay monthly could reasonably read the promise as applying each month, and that a help-page explanation of per-session limits was two hyperlinks away from the main sales pages. Breach-of-contract and negligent-misrepresentation claims survived. Several other claims were dismissed, including some under California consumer-protection laws, in some cases with leave to amend.

The conjecture concerns when quantum computers can be exponentially faster than ordinary ones on yes-or-no questions; with the proof, PSI says quantum algorithms cannot save exponentially many looks on random inputs unless the input has rare structure (exponential speedups like Shor’s still need that structure). Stanford researchers Guy Blanc, Jordan Docter, Carmen Strassle, and Li-Yang Tan, who had proved a special case in August 2026, told PSI the result is huge and are writing a shorter exposition; the paper is not yet peer reviewed, and independent external verification was still pending as of publication. David Turturean led the work; Jim Halverson audited the proof.

In Amsterdam, protesters entered the construction site of a data centre being built for Microsoft; that project's permits predate the Netherlands' 2024 limits on hyperscale sites. Restrictions in Europe so far come mainly from grid and planning rules rather than outright bans: the Netherlands limits hyperscale sites to designated areas, Ireland requires large new sites to bring their own power, and Denmark now gives data centres the lowest grid-connection priority. PwC estimates European data-centre spending at about €176 billion from 2026 to 2031.

One shows that PKCS#1 v1.5 padding adds little protection once an attacker controls about half of a signed block; two cooperating agents reran a previously solved 1024-bit case in 391 CPU core-years, about 3.5 times less than the original, and DeepMind estimates a roughly 1,600x gain for a harder 32-byte case (a theoretical estimate, not a completed computation). The other describes a batch method that, after a one-time setup, would cut the cost of factoring each additional 1024-bit key by about 30 times versus the best comparable method (also theoretical; not yet implemented). The papers are not yet peer reviewed, and both say RSA keys of 2048 bits or more are not threatened.

It concludes that as of October 2026 Anthropic is likely improving model capabilities on well-specified tasks at around twice the March 2024–October 2025 rate (high uncertainty; roughly 1.3x–3x plausible). Benchmark scores via AECI grew about 1.9x faster since October 2025 (95% CI 1.5–2.8x). METR says the speedup was not from faster training-compute scaling and guesses that a majority (perhaps about 80%) of the current acceleration is from extensive use of AI for R&amp;D. It did not identify clear bottlenecks that would block further acceleration over the next 12 months, and notes Anthropic redacted much of the most informative evidence.

One company it notified confirmed a key was still live.
