Anthropic has begun rolling out Voice Mode for Claude Code, its AI‑powered coding assistant. The feature, announced by engineer Thariq Shihipar on X, is initially available to roughly 5% of users with a wider release planned in the coming weeks. Voice Mode lets developers toggle a /voice command and speak instructions such as “refactor the authentication middleware,” allowing a more hands‑free, conversational coding workflow. While details on usage limits or third‑party voice providers remain unclear, the launch follows Anthropic’s earlier Voice Mode for its standard Claude chatbot and comes amid fierce competition from GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Google and OpenAI. Recent reports show Claude Code’s revenue surpassing $2.5 billion and weekly active users doubling since the start of the year, while the company’s mobile app surged to the top of the U.S. App Store after refusing Department of Defense usage.

Microsoft is rolling out Anthropic’s Claude Code to a broad set of its internal engineering groups, encouraging both developers and non‑technical staff to experiment with the AI coding assistant. The move complements the company’s existing reliance on GitHub Copilot, with engineers asked to compare the two tools and provide feedback. By integrating Claude Code into major product divisions such as Windows, Microsoft 365, and Azure‑related services, Microsoft aims to boost productivity, simplify prototyping, and explore the potential of offering the tool to external cloud customers in the future.

Vibe coding lets developers and non‑programmers create apps by describing functionality in plain language, with AI models generating the underlying code. Coined by Andrej Karpathy, the approach builds on recent advances in large language models and blurs the line between low‑code, no‑code, and traditional programming. While it speeds prototyping and opens software creation to a broader audience, experts warn that human oversight remains essential for security, performance, and maintainability. Leer más

Anthropic has introduced Claude Code as a beta feature within Slack, allowing developers to initiate full coding sessions directly from chat threads. The integration expands on existing Slack capabilities by automatically selecting repositories, posting progress updates, and linking to pull requests without leaving the conversation. This move underscores a broader industry shift toward embedding AI coding assistants in collaboration platforms rather than traditional IDEs. While competitors like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and OpenAI Codex are also exploring similar integrations, Anthropic’s rollout highlights the strategic importance of workflow‑centric AI tools. Security and dependency concerns accompany the new functionality, prompting teams to consider access controls and platform reliability. Leer más

CodeRabbit, the AI‑powered code review platform founded by former FluxNinja CEO Harjot Gill, announced a $60 million Series B financing that values the company at $550 million. The startup, launched in early 2023 after Gill observed widespread adoption of AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot, now serves more than 8,000 businesses, including Chegg, Groupon and Mercury. Riding rapid growth—20 percent month‑over‑month and over $15 million in annual recurring revenue—CodeRabbit aims to cut human code‑review effort in half. The round was led by Scale Venture Partners with participation from NVentures and CRV, while competitors such as Graphite and Greptile also pursue funding. Leer más

Microsoft is rolling out an automatic AI model‑selection feature for Visual Studio Code that favors Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4 over OpenAI’s GPT‑5, especially for paid GitHub Copilot users. Internal guidance from developer division head Julia Liuson cites benchmark results recommending Claude Sonnet 4. At the same time, the company is investing heavily in its own AI training infrastructure and planning to integrate Anthropic models into Microsoft 365 Copilot, while a new partnership deal with OpenAI eases cloud‑provider restrictions and hints at future financial arrangements.
