Anthropic dominates the day with the launch of Claude Fable 5, its new 'Mythos-class' flagship now live on AWS Bedrock, while Xiaomi's open-source MiMo Code harness claims it beats Claude Code on ultra-long 200+ step coding tasks. Agentic infrastructure keeps expanding into money: Coinbase built a native account layer for AI agents and Visa is issuing agents their own payment cards with OpenAI as launch partner. Anthropic also reversed a research-access policy that critics said could have 'sabotaged' outside AI researchers, a reminder that safety-motivated restrictions keep colliding with the open research community. Meanwhile the AI capex bill is landing on public markets - Adobe stock hit a seven-year low, Oracle spooked investors over AI spending, and a memory chip shortage driven by AI demand is squeezing IT budgets industry-wide. For engineers, the throughline is clear: bigger models and more autonomous agents are arriving faster than the financial and governance systems built to support them.
