On 2026-11-06 Kakao open-sourced Kanana-2-v-decide-3b-2611 on Hugging Face (~3.67B), built on Kanana-2-v-3b: no text generation, only choice / noul / score with probabilities. Vendor: 72.50 on Kanana Decision Bench; 61.23 avg on Decision Index + Vision; mean <0.04s on one H200, claimed ~43x vs GPT-6 Luna. Commercial Kanana Open License.

On November 5 Kiro (@kirodotdev) announced Kiro bots GA in open-source multi-agent Kiro Crew. Each bot has persistent Notes, its own workspace and Dashboard; it launches parallel workers, redirects drift, consolidates results, and asks approval when needed — with schedules and per-role minimal tool permissions.

On November 5, Solid founder Trevor Keith launched Glasshand: dedicated real iPhones and Macs hosted in a data center—not emulators—so agents can see the screen and tap or type via API. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others; agents can install apps, sign into iCloud, add eSIM for SMS codes, run social workflows or build/test in Xcode. Official pricing is $60/mo for an iPhone and $90/mo for a Mac, month to month with cancel anytime and factory wipe on release. It ranked #1 on Product Hunt that day.

On November 5, independent evaluator METR published a high-access assessment at Anthropic (Aug 12–Oct 29, 2026). As of October 2026, Anthropic is likely improving model capabilities on well-specified tasks at about twice the March 2024–October 2025 historical rate. Since October 2025, AECI scores grew at an estimated 1.9x the prior rate [95% CI 1.5–2.8]. METR judges that a majority of current acceleration is attributable to AI-assisted R&D, not faster training-compute scaling; Anthropic redacted much of the most informative evidence.

On November 5 Perplexity (@perplexity_ai) and CEO Aravind Srinivas (@AravSrinivas) launched Teammates: persistent personal agents on Computer that own ongoing responsibilities, inherit Projects, Skills, Memory and tool permissions, run in isolated desktops and browsers, collaborate with other teammates, and proactively monitor Slack. Official help docs call it a research preview for individual Max subscribers on the web; Enterprise Pro/Max are not included by default; native mobile and desktop apps are coming later.

On November 5 Mistral expanded Mistral Studio. Managed Agents, built with the Agents SDK (mistralai-agents), run the same code in-process, self-hosted (agents serve) or Mistral-managed (agents deploy), with durable execution for hours or days, crash resume and human approvals. Mistral also shipped a Vibe-powered workflow builder, the mistral apps CLI, HTTP API connectors, webhooks and triggers, a managed search index, and offline and online evaluations, mostly in Public Preview.

On November 5 Anthropic announced a US beta of Personal Finance in Claude via @claudeai. Users link bank, card, loan and investment accounts through Plaid, see balances, cash flow, subscriptions and bills on one page, and ask questions in plain language. The official help article says access is read-only, so Claude cannot move, manage or invest money. It is limited to US Pro, Max and Ultra personal plans (not Free, Team or Enterprise) and is rolling out gradually.

On November 5 OpenAI launched GPT-6 Cyber for authorized security research: ExploitGym rose from GPT-5.6 Cyber's 32.1% to 48.5% (about 51% relative), out-of-scope exploitation fell to 0.07% without deployment prompts and 0% with them. The model helped find 81 novel high-severity Firefox bugs and develop exploits for 948 Linux privilege-escalation cases, and OpenAI raised its Preparedness Framework cyber rating from High to Critical. It is initially available via API and Codex to select Daybreak Red customers, with expansion to all Red customers planned.

On November 5 OpenAI published a National Community Compact for U.S. compute campuses it owns and operates: no NDAs with public officials except narrow security carve-outs, public construction and impact reporting (noise, water, energy), Ratepayer Protection Pledge to pay full electricity and incremental grid costs with stranded-asset assurances, Grid Protector peak curtailment (up to 1,000 MW in Effingham, Georgia), and community investments already listed at $80M in Effingham and $40M in Pike County, Ohio. A PDF of the Compact is on openai.com.

Independent evaluator Artificial Analysis published Tencent Hunyuan Hy4 results on the Intelligence Index v5 on November 5 (08:28 UTC): a composite score of 35, tying Grok 4.7 (xhigh) and one point behind Claude Haiku 5.5 (max). Among China-based labs it ranks second only to Kimi K3.1 Pro (46). On agentic coding it scores 31% on FrontierCode 2.0 and 37% on Terminal-Bench 4.0; cost per Intelligence Index task is about $0.78, roughly one-tenth of same-score Grok 4.7.

On November 4 NotionHQ announced that via Notion MCP, ChatGPT, Claude, Muse and Bot can read and write the same Memories and Skills—one shared brain across agents. Official setup prompts (v0.0.6, Oct 30), help docs and a Nov 3 MCP use-cases blog corroborate the product push.

On November 4 Anthropic's biology team reported that Claude helped determine the first 3D vault structure from a prokaryotic/phage system (protein L05). Vendor-reported timing: ~90-minute purification and a first model in ~34 hours, plus an open discussion of mistakes and the multi-agent research workflow.

On November 3 GitHub announced on its official changelog that GitHub Copilot is now available in JetBrains Air. The integration is built on the Agent Client Protocol (ACP): developers pick Copilot in Air's agent picker, delegate coding tasks, track several sessions in parallel and review changes next to their code. Tasks can run locally in a JetBrains IDE or in isolated cloud environments through Air Teams, and they draw on the Copilot subscription rather than JetBrains AI credits.
