An AI coding bot took down Amazon Web Services

Amazon’s cloud unit has suffered at least two outages due to errors involving its own AI tools, leading some employees to raise doubts about the US tech giant’s push to roll out these coding assistants. Amazon Web Services experienced a 13-hour interruption to one system used by its customers in mid-December after engineers allowed its […]

After a routine code rejection, an AI agent published a hit piece on someone by name

On Monday, a pull request executed by an AI agent to the popular Python charting library matplotlib turned into a 45-comment debate about whether AI-generated code belongs in open source projects. What made that debate all the more unusual was that the AI agent itself took part, going so far as to publish a blog

OpenAI sidesteps Nvidia with unusually fast coding model on plate-sized chips

On Thursday, OpenAI released its first production AI model to run on non-Nvidia hardware, deploying the new GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark coding model on chips from Cerebras. The model delivers code at more than 1,000 tokens (chunks of data) per second, which is reported to be roughly 15 times faster than its predecessor. To compare, Anthropic’s Claude Opus

Sixteen Claude AI agents working together created a new C compiler

Amid a push toward AI agents, with both Anthropic and OpenAI shipping multi-agent tools this week, Anthropic is more than ready to show off some of its more daring AI coding experiments. But as usual with claims of AI-related achievement, you’ll find some key caveats ahead. On Thursday, Anthropic researcher Nicholas Carlini published a blog

AI companies want you to stop chatting with bots and start managing them

On Thursday, Anthropic and OpenAI shipped products built around the same idea: instead of chatting with a single AI assistant, users should be managing teams of AI agents that divide up work and run in parallel. The simultaneous releases are part of a gradual shift across the industry, from AI as a conversation partner to

Developers say AI coding tools work—and that’s precisely what worries them

Software developers have spent the past two years watching AI coding tools evolve from advanced autocomplete into something that can, in some cases, build entire applications from a text prompt. Tools like Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex can now work on software projects for hours at a time, writing code, running tests, and, with

From prophet to product: How AI came back down to earth in 2025

Following two years of immense hype in 2023 and 2024, this year felt more like a settling-in period for the LLM-based token prediction industry. After more than two years of public fretting over AI models as future threats to human civilization or the seedlings of future gods, it’s starting to look like hype is giving way to pragmatism:

How do AI coding agents work? We look under the hood.

AI coding agents from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google can now work on software projects for hours at a time, writing complete apps, running tests, and fixing bugs with human supervision. But these tools are not magic and can complicate rather than simplify a software project. Understanding how they work under the hood can help developers

OpenAI built an AI coding agent and uses it to improve the agent itself

With the popularity of AI coding tools rising among some software developers, their adoption has begun to touch every aspect of the process, including human developers using the tools to improve existing AI coding tools. We’re not talking about runaway self-improvement here; just people using tools to improve the tools themselves. In interviews with Ars

OpenAI releases GPT-5.2 after “code red” Google threat alert

On Thursday, OpenAI released GPT-5.2, its newest family of AI models for ChatGPT, in three versions called Instant, Thinking, and Pro. The release follows CEO Sam Altman’s internal “code red” memo earlier this month, which directed company resources toward improving ChatGPT in response to competitive pressure from Google’s Gemini 3 AI model. “We designed 5.2
