Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis break down Claude Opus 4.6’s new role as a financial‑research engine, discuss how GPT‑5.3 Codex is reshaping full‑stack coding workflows, and explore Matt Shumer’s warning that AI agents will touch nearly every job in just a few years. We unpack how Super Bowl AI ads are reframing public perception, examine Waymo’s use of DeepMind’s Genie 3 world model to train autonomous vehicles on rare edge‑case scenarios, and also cover OpenAI’s ad‑baked free ChatGPT tiers, HBR’s findings on how AI expands workloads instead of lightening them, and new evidence that AI mislabels medical conditions in real‑world settings.
