@immasiddx @justbyte_ seems a lil subjectivity is at play, considering you left out Galaxy Watches & Ring.

@DevBySami @testingcatalog what are you trying to get across by numbering these? I just don't understand how this adds to the conversation.

This image just doesn't make sense 👀
> Anthropic updated its Assist UI on Claude for iOS (Currently hidden)
> Claude Assist was assumed to be related to "Mobile Use" functionality, where Claude would be able to execute tasks on a mobile phone
> The icon on this screen doesn't seem to relate to "Mobile Use." Instead, it represents a goal that can be achieved iteratively and progressively.
> Being able to delegate more high-level tasks to AI so they can continuously work on a given KPI will be a huge milestone for any lab that gets it first.
Let’s kick off some tasks?

Both Anthropic and OpenAI are gearing up to release updates to their desktop apps already next week.
Anthropic is finalizing its new Claude Code "epitaxy" experience with a power-user-friendly UI, Cowork-style layout, and the possibility to work on multiple repositories at once.
Users will be able to preview their code right in the app, along with sections to view a "Plan", "Tasks" executed by sub-agents, and "Diff".
But that's not all 👀

Perplexity grew from $100M to $500M with only 34% growth in team size and fully pivoted to Perplexity Computer.
Computer for businesses 👀


Aravind Srinivas@AravSrinivas
Perplexity started as a small business tool for ourselves. We had 4 people and no revenue with AI at our fingertips. The pivot to Computer is actually a full circle. Founders are using it to grow companies that matter to the economy and their communities. It’s rewarding to see it now powering small businesses and startups in big ways. Perplexity is still a startup. We just 5X’ed revenue from $100M to $500M with only 34% growth in team size. 2x revenue growth in 2026 with same small team. And we’re just warming up. Everyone here works at a small business, and everything we build is for people who build.

gemini 3 just made every $15k ai consultant look like a clown
google silent-dropped autonomous agents to 650 million users yesterday
what consultants charge $15K and 6 weeks to "implement" now takes 4 minutes on a phone
here's what actually changed:
the model:
→ plans multi-step workflows autonomously
→ executes start to finish with zero hand-holding
→ optimized for non-experts (no CS degree needed)
→ already live on mobile canvas feature
while "AI agencies" are charging $8k-20k for strategy decks, google just deployed real automation to more people than chatgpt's entire user base
the intelligence gap is getting stupid:
that consultant billing $200/hr to "set up AI workflows" → the app does it autonomously now
that agency charging $15k for "custom AI implementation" → built in 4 minutes on gemini 3 mobile
that bootcamp selling "learn AI automation" for $2k → obsolete before the course launched
some startup just replaced their $18k/month AI consulting retainer with a free app
same output. 4 minute setup. zero technical knowledge required.
most businesses still think AI automation needs:
- 6 month roadmaps
- technical teams
- consulting firms
- $50k+ budgets
reality: it needs a phone and 4 minutes
your competition doesn't know this exists yet
but they will
comment "GEMINI" and i'll send you the breakdown of how to use this before everyone figures it out

I’ll share a small part of pickle.com
Back in med school, I became obsessed with augmenting memory and dreamed of a Notion or Obsidian that completes itself. Today, we’ve built something close.
My self-awareness is sharper and everything feels connected. I genuinely believe AI does not replace humans. It amplifies us.
Huge respect to our engineers and designers who made this crazy thing real.
Bubbles are the episodic units of my life that the system interprets from my raw data. Clouds are the system’s questions, its hypotheses about who I am.
When I answer a cloud, it becomes a bubble again.
There is so much personal data that I cannot fully demo it. Wish I could. This system understands me more deeply than anyone.
Want to try it? Retweet and comment “memory.”
I’ll DM you an access code to skip the waitlist.

🧠 Negative words linger longer than positive.
Your brain has a remarkable memory for negative experiences. Studies reveal that insults or harsh criticisms can be remembered for up to 20 years, while compliments and positive feedback are often forgotten within just 30 days. This imbalance is rooted in our evolutionary biology, where the brain prioritizes threats and harmful information to help ensure survival.
When we experience criticism or insults, the amygdala—the brain’s emotional center—activates strongly, encoding these events deeply into long-term memory. This heightened encoding ensures that the brain remembers potentially harmful social interactions, making it more likely to avoid similar threats in the future. Positive experiences, on the other hand, tend to trigger weaker neural pathways, which are easier to forget over time.
The implications are significant for mental health and relationships. Negative comments can have a lasting impact on self-esteem, stress levels, and emotional well-being. Conversely, the fleeting memory of compliments may mean that positive reinforcement has less enduring influence unless it is repeated consistently. Understanding this pattern can help individuals and organizations emphasize consistent encouragement to counterbalance the weight of negative experiences.
Experts suggest strategies to strengthen the memory of positive feedback. Journaling, repeating compliments, and mindfulness practices can help reinforce positive experiences in long-term memory. Building awareness of this cognitive bias allows people to focus on gratitude, resilience, and self-compassion.
This research underscores the brain’s inherent tendency to remember negativity far longer than positivity. By understanding these mechanisms, we can actively cultivate habits and environments that amplify positive experiences, ensuring that praise and encouragement leave a more lasting mark than insults ever could.

When you look at this image, it feels almost painted
like a storm dream.
But every swirl you see is real, alive, and enormous. Those soft waves are actually clouds of ammonia and water vapor, stretched and spun by Jupiter’s 400 mph winds.
That bright spot near the center? It’s a storm larger than Earth, swirling for centuries in silence.
There’s no solid ground below
just endless layers of gas, pressure, and lightning, deeper and deeper until even light can’t escape.
It’s strange to think… this chaos is harmony.
A planet made entirely of storms, yet still in perfect orbit a reminder that even the most violent forces in the universe can move with grace.
