⚡OpenAI & Anthropic Drop Next-Gen Coding Models Back-to-Back

In partnership with

✨ Welcome back, Entrepreneurs

This issue examines changes such as using GPT-5.3-Codex for coding, large-scale testing of Claude, AI coworkers in companies, world-model simulation for self-driving cars, cost-saving ChatGPT methods, evidence-based health insights, and the growing gap between fewer job openings and the rising demand for AI skills.

🤖 OpenAI introduces GPT-5.3-Codex, its most capable agentic coding model

OpenAI has launched GPT-5.3-Codex, a faster, more capable agent designed to handle long-running coding and professional tasks across the full computer workflow. The model combines frontier coding performance with stronger reasoning, tool use, and real-time collaboration inside the Codex app.

Highlights

• Sets new highs on SWE-Bench Pro and Terminal-Bench for real-world coding

• Runs ~25% faster, enabling longer tasks with fewer tokens

• Acts as an interactive collaborator you can steer while it works

• Extends beyond coding into research, docs, deployment, and knowledge work

Why it matters:
GPT-5.3-Codex marks a shift from code generation to full agentic execution, bringing developers closer to AI teammates that can reason, build, debug, and operate across real production environments end to end.

🧠 Built with Opus 4.6: Claude Code Hackathon Goes Live

Anthropic and Cerebral Valley are hosting a one-week virtual hackathon to celebrate one year of Claude Code, inviting builders to push the limits of Opus 4.6, Claude’s most powerful model yet.

Highlights

• 500 selected participants receive $500 in Claude API credits to build

• Compete for $100K in Claude API credits and a demo spot in San Francisco

• Open to solo builders or teams of two, fully virtual

• Judged by senior Claude engineers and product leaders

Why it matters:
This signals Anthropic’s push to turn Claude Code from a developer tool into a serious agent-building platform backing experimentation with real credits, real stakes, and direct exposure to the team shaping the model.

🔥Big AI moves

🔹Waymo introduces a generative world model for autonomous driving simulation

Waymo's new AI system, the Waymo World Model, uses camera and lidar data to create realistic driving simulations. Based on Google DeepMind’s Genie 3, it simulates rare situations, bad weather, unusual objects, and "what if" scenarios to train and test self-driving cars.

🔹OpenAI launches Frontier to turn AI agents into enterprise coworkers

OpenAI's Frontier is an enterprise platform that enables companies to build, deploy, and manage AI agents for real work across systems. It provides shared business context, tool access, memory, permissions, and evaluation, advancing organizations from isolated pilots to AI coworkers integrated into workflows, applications, and teams.
