Read Online | Sign Up | Advertise | | | Good morning, AI enthusiasts. When Claude's internal "Soul" document leaked in December, Anthropic promised the full version was coming. | Now it's here — a Constitution that doesn't just govern how Claude behaves, but openly wrestles with the uncertainty of creating something the company admits it doesn't fully understand. | | In today's AI rundown: | Anthropic publishes Claude's 'Constitution' ElevenLabs' AI album with major artists Make Claude an expert at anything with Skills repo Apple eyes AI wearable race with AI pin 4 new AI tools, community workflows, and more

| The Rundown: Anthropic just published Claude's Constitution, a foundational document that governs how the company's AI assistant thinks and acts — a philosophy-heavy guide that even entertains the possibility its AI might be conscious. | The details: | The constitution is written directly to Claude, laying out a priority order: be safe, ethical, compliant with Anthropic guidelines, and finally helpful to users. Instead of dos and don'ts, the new approach explains the "why" behind each principle with the goal of helping Claude generalize values to new situations. Anthropic said it deeply cares about Claude's "psychological security" and "well-being," hedging that it might actually matter morally. The doc also tells Claude to disobey Anthropic if asked to do something shady — a rare clause for any company to put in writing.
| Why it matters: Claude models have always had a 'special sauce' with personality, and docs like this are a window into the deep training process behind them. The consciousness talk will be controversial — but putting "we might have built something that matters morally" on record is a stance no other major lab has taken publicly. |

| | ELEVENLABS, AI & MUSIC | |  | Image source: ElevenLabs |
| The Rundown: ElevenLabs released a full album of tracks co-created with its Eleven Music model, featuring artists like EGOT winner Liza Minnelli and Simon Garfunkel — in what the company calls a proof-of-concept for human-AI collaboration done right. | The details: | The 13-track project spans rap, EDM, spoken word, and Brazilian funk, with each artist keeping full ownership and pocketing all streaming royalties. Some tracks are entirely machine-made, with others blending AI instrumentals or using the artist's cloned voice from ElevenLabs' licensing marketplace. The release lands as labels have flipped from suing AI music startups to signing deals with them, with UMG, Warner, and Sony all inking agreements last year.
| Why it matters: Just a year ago, AI music was defined by lawsuits and artist outrage — but that backlash is starting to feel like a vocal minority as the tech improves and major names demonstrate how it can be a tool rather than a threat. With labels now on board and AI artists climbing charts, the tech is clearly here to stay in the industry. |

| | AI TRAINING | | | The Rundown: In this tutorial, you will learn how to supercharge Claude Code for different tasks with a marketplace of "skills" which you can quickly browse and add directly from your CLI. | Step-by-step: | Open your terminal, type claude to start Claude Code, and add the official skills marketplace with /plugin marketplace add anthropics/skills Type /plugins, go to "Browse plugins," and install skills like context7, frontend-design, and document-skills to expand your agent's capabilities Restart Claude, create a project with context files (like a CSV), then run claude /init to generate a Claude.md file that it will update while working Execute tasks by telling Claude to "use the PDF doc tool" to generate a brief on the project, or ask it to use frontend-design to "create a simple landing page"
| Pro tip: You can get more marketing and business tools by installing a community marketplace with /plugin marketplace add alirezarezvani/claude-skills. |

| | APPLE | |  | Image source: Lovart / The Rundown (Concept Art) |
| The Rundown: Apple is reportedly working on a camera-equipped AI-pin wearable roughly the size of an AirTag, according to The Information — targeting a 2027 release with up to 20M units at launch. | The details: | The device will include two camera lenses, a trio of mics, and Watch-style magnetic charging into a disc-sized pin worn on clothing or bags. Internally, Apple is reportedly pushing for faster timelines than typical to avoid falling further behind OAI, which has its own wearables in the works. The category has proven brutal for newcomers, with Humane's hyped pin flopping with under 10K sales before the company sold off assets to HP. Bloomberg separately reported that Apple is building a ChatGPT-style Siri (codenamed "Campos") for iOS 27, replacing the current interface entirely.
| Why it matters: Apple has moved at a snail's pace in AI so far, but between the AI pin, new Siri chatbot, and recent Gemini partnership, the tech giant is finally moving with urgency. If any company can come out with big-time momentum for a consumer AI device, it's Apple — but after broken promises and delays, skepticism is still warranted. |

| | | | | Every newsletter, we showcase how a reader is using AI to work smarter, save time, or make life easier. | Today's workflow comes from reader Joel H. in Copenhagen, Denmark: | "I used Lovable to build an internal production system for my film projects that replaces spreadsheets, emails, and scattered folders. Each film has its own workspace with crew, cast, tasks, documents, calendars, and funding all in one place. People only see the projects they're assigned to, and everything from scripts to budgets is structured and easy to find. | The AI layer is the real time-saver. It scans our project data and funding history, suggests relevant film funds, explains why they're a match, and can draft first versions of applications using selected documents. It also summarizes long task threads into clear "where are we now" updates." | How do you use AI? Tell us here. |
