Read Online | Sign Up | Advertise | | | Good morning, AI enthusiasts. Remote agents like OpenClaw are all the rage right now, and Anthropic's shipping spree is quickly giving Claude the building blocks to become one itself. | Claude can now control a Mac directly, clicking and handling tasks while you manage everything from your phone — the latest in a string of releases transforming the assistant from a chatbot into a full-time digital employee. | | In today's AI rundown: | Anthropic ships remote computer use Luma AI's new image model thinks as it generates Free up space on your computer with Claude Zuck ramps up Meta's internal AI agent use 4 new AI tools, community workflows, and more

| The Rundown: Anthropic just released a research preview that hands Claude direct control of your desktop — letting it click, type, and navigate across any app on your Mac while you step away, with phone-based task assignment through Dispatch. | The details: | The newly released Dispatch turns the combo into a remote setup, allowing users to fire off a task from mobile and letting Claude handle it on the computer. The system is built to avoid screen control when possible, checking for direct app integrations and browser access before resorting to clicking. The feature is only available to macOS users on Pro or Max plans currently via Cowork and Claude Code, with a Windows version also in the pipeline. Anthropic acquired computer use startup Vercept in February, with the new release marking the team's first product launch after just four weeks.
| Why it matters: Anthropic's Alex Albert puts it well, saying, "the future where I never have to open my laptop to get work done is becoming real very fast". While losing OpenClaw to OAI was considered by many to be a miss, the recent flurry of features has shown the building blocks forming to turn Claude into its own remote agent. |

| | TOGETHER WITH ORACLE | | | The Rundown: The race to create an amazing Agentic AI experience is hitting a wall because of AI's memory gap between sessions. Oracle shares how proper memory infrastructure in a 'convergent database' is the key to a competitive advantage creating an authentic Agentic AI digital partner. | In this blog, you'll find: | Why context windows fall short for agent memory Technical practices for agent memory competitive advantage Code snippets and the notebook to get started

| The Rundown: Luma AI rolled out Uni-1, an image model that processes text and visuals through the same pipeline — thinking through what it's asked to do before and while it creates, with the company calling this approach "path to general intelligence." | The details: | Uni-1 runs on the same type of architecture as GPT Image 1.5 and Nano Banana Pro, processing text and images in a single pipeline instead of diffusion. The model also features real-world understanding, enabling creative decisions and use cases such as infographics, manga, and specific aesthetics. In testing, Uni-1 topped human preference rankings for style, editing, and reference-based work, trailing only Nano Banana Pro in text-to-image ELO. Uni-1's API price of ~$0.09 / image at 2K resolution undercuts Nano Banana Pro's $0.134 rate by roughly a third, though the API is waitlist-only for now.
| Why it matters: Luma made its name in video, so an image model is a new direction. If the same system can extend into video, voice, and interactive worlds as Luma is teasing, Uni-1 could set the foundation for one model that can do it all creatively — moving into the creative agent territory that users are starting to expect. |

| | AI TRAINING | | | The Rundown: In this guide, you will learn a simple way to use Claude as a storage-cleanup copilot. If you use AI to code, you're likely eating up a ton of storage space without even knowing it. | Step-by-step: | Start Claude/Claude Code and prompt: "I need to free up Mac storage, but I don't want to delete anything important. Ask me about my tools, find storage culprits, and help me investigate before suggesting any cleanup commands" Answer the questions and ask Claude to rank the culprits by size and risk. It should give you terminal commands to check the size of top storage-eaters Work through each category. Have Claude explain what the files are, why they get large, what is safe to remove, and what should be reviewed manually Once identified, prompt: "Start with the lowest-risk cleanup wins first. For each one, explain what would be removed, how much space it might save, and anything I should double-check before deleting it"
| Pro tip: Ask Claude to turn this into a reusable skill file that you can feed into any AI. |

| The Rundown: Mark Zuckerberg is creating a personal "CEO agent" to shortcut the chain of command when he needs quick answers, according to the WSJ, coming as part of a company-wide mandate that now factors AI usage into performance reviews. | The details: | Zuck's agent is still in development, but already handles tasks like pulling answers that typically require going through multiple layers of Meta's org chart. Staffers have spun up custom agent tools, including one called "My Claw" that reads their work files and negotiates with coworkers' bots directly. Another Claude-powered internal tool called "Second Brain" acts as an AI chief of staff, pulling answers from any internal document on demand. Zuckerberg had previously courted OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger, and also acquired Chinese agentic platform Manus in December.
| Why it matters: Meta may have tens of thousands of employees, but that isn't stopping the newer parts of the org from trying to move as fast and lean as some of its more AI-native rivals. With Zuck seemingly very invested in the AI agent boom, Meta's integration of Manus will be one of the more interesting implementations to watch for. |

I uploaded my dash cam video to Gemini and prompted it to use the persona of a skilled traffic lawyer in my jurisdiction and to defend me. | It produced a detailed 3-page letter to my insurance company, quoting numerous sections of legislation and associating each with time stamps on the video. I was reassessed to be not at fault." | How do you use AI? Tell us here. |
