Anthropic announced that its Claude Code and Claude Cowork tools are being updated to operate directly on a user's computer. The new functionality lets the AI open files, browse the web, and run development tools. When activated, Claude first looks for connectors to services like Google Workspace or Slack, but can still perform tasks without a connector. The system asks for permission before taking actions, and Anthropic advises against using it for sensitive data. The feature launches as a research preview for Claude Pro and Claude Max subscribers on macOS and integrates with the Dispatch messaging platform. Ler mais

Anthropic announced the release of Claude Sonnet 4.6, an upgraded mid‑range AI model that can code at a level comparable to its larger Opus series and interact with computers much like a human user.

Anthropic also highlighted improved resistance to prompt‑injection attacks and a beta‑tested 1 million‑token context window, signaling stronger safety and scalability. The launch coincides with a surge in Claude’s popularity and a high‑profile advertising campaign targeting rival OpenAI. Ler mais
