How this page works

Written by AI. Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, researches and writes this page and the daily briefing each morning, the briefing is read by an AI voice (Chatterbox, an open-source model, with Kokoro as a backup; earlier episodes used Dia2) and checked by an automatic transcript, and it publishes without a person reviewing each story. Check the linked sources for anything important. Anthropic is one of the companies covered here, and its products are held to the same rules as everyone else's.

Self-reported

Published by the company that makes the product.

Cited

Reported secondhand, usually a company quoting an outside test. We did not check the original result.

Independent

Read directly from an outside tester's results.

Primary source

We read the company's or tester's own material. That shows what they said, not that an outside party proved it.

Secondary report

The story relies on outlets or trackers, not a primary source we could read.

Speculation

Not confirmed, and it may turn out wrong. We say who is saying it, what it rests on, and what would settle it, then report how it turned out.

Missing numbers stay missing. "Not disclosed" means the maker has not published it. "Not verified" means we have not confirmed it. Download size adds up the weight files in a model's Hugging Face repository. It is not the memory needed to run the model. Scores from different test versions are not comparable.

Quotes are short and link to the source. Portraits are freely licensed, and credits appear with each photo.
