New home for Cowork

Claude Cowork merges into Claude Chat, removing the separate tab for background tasks while keeping connected apps and skills in normal chats; OpenAI will likely follow by merging ChatGPT with ChatGPT Work, and Anthropic is spinning Claude Artifacts into dedicated Docs and Slides products. Google's Gemini API released 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking models (video/audio input, audio output, 7x cheaper than GPT-Live 1), while new models Jev (TypeSafe AI, founder co-created ChatGPT, probability-based outputs, 5x cheaper inputs than 5.6 Luna) and Union Alpha (outperforms 5.6 Sol on DeepSWE at 5.6 Luna's cost) launched via OpenRouter. Meta introduced Meta One subscriptions with extra AI features, and Factory raised $200M at a $5B valuation.

score
score 7 out of 10. 0-10: how dense the facts are, multiplied by how much you can do with them after reading. 8+ means the topic's evidence bar is met: benchmarks and availability for a new model, amount and investors for a funding round, revenue figures for a solo-money story. Below 5 an item does not enter the digest. A press release scores 3 or less, a reprint loses 2, anything older than 14 days loses 1, a headline that misleads loses 3.
