Scoop: xAI staff had been using Anthropic’s models internally through Cursor—until Anthropic cut off the startup’s access this week. Here’s what xAI cofounder Tony Wu sent to staff on Wednesday according to a copy of the internal Slack message I viewed: “Hi team, I believe many of you have already discovered that anthropic models are not responding on cursor. According to cursor this is a new policy anthropic is enforcing for all its major competitors. This is a both bad and good news. We will get a hit on productivity, but it rly pushes us to develop our own coding product / models. We're at a time in which Al is now a critical technology for our own productivity. This coming year is rly going to be wildly exciting for all of us. The team is rapidly developing our own models / product. We will have something to share with everyone soon. In the meantime, you may still try all different kinds of models in grok build.” Anthropic declined to comment. A Cursor spokesperson directed me to Anthropic for comment. xAI did not respond to request for comment.

Idea for The Pokémon Company: I think there is a MASSIVE opportunity to capitalize on the decades of nostalgic equity that fans have with the franchise The same frenzy that originally propelled Pokémon into mainstream culture lives within millions of adults that yearn for the feeling the original games provided Every 2-3 years I find myself picking up a Gameboy and running back Pokémon Red/Blue/Crystal/Gold on the original cartridges, beating the Elite Four with just as much joy I had as a child. It’s a cycle that’s been happening for the last 15 years of my life. Admittedly, however, I don’t have as much of a connection with the newer Pokémon — although Annihilape and Baxcalibur have my heart lol SO, I think the Pokémon company should create a remastered game inspired by the OGs that mirrors the original pixel graphics, combines the best generations of Pokémon, and introduces adaptive NPCs that evolve alongside the player. Old school vibes powered by modern technology that gives players the ability to connect to the internet for easier trading/battling, downloadable content, etc. This will do three things 1.) Give older fans a chance to relive their childhood thus awakening a massive, dormant demographic 2.) Give newer, younger fans a taste of what originally made the franchise so special 3.) Bridge the gap for older fans who don’t connect with newer Pokémon in a way that’s familiar to them If we believe that video game cycles are like a pendulum, the near-future of gaming may birth a desire for more simplified, block-based aesthetics. We already see it happening with games like Minecraft & Roblox. As technology continues to advance at an alarmingly rapid pace, I personally believe the future will lean towards “retro” With over 30 million copies of Pokemon Red & Blue sold in the 1990s, Pokemon can provide an experience for die-hard fans of all ages in a way no other company can. #PokemonPink @Pokemon
