Claude, the chatbot from AI startup Anthropic, will soon be able to handle ten times more content in its "Projects" feature. If a user exceeds the regular limit, a new "Retrieval" mode will automatically turn on to expand the chatbot’s memory. This upgrade will roll out to all paid Claude plans in the coming days.
Google has rolled out another update to its flagship AI model, Gemini 2.5 Pro. The latest version brings modest improvements across a range of benchmarks and maintains top positions on tests like LMArena and WebDevArena. According to Google, the new release also handles challenging programming, knowledge, and logic tasks better than before. The model also "can be more creative with better-formatted responses."

Developers can access the updated Gemini 2.5 Pro in preview through Google AI Studio and Vertex AI. Google plans to promote this preview to a stable, generally available version in the coming weeks. The update is also rolling out to the Gemini app starting today.
Anthropic has added three premium features to Claude Pro, previously only for Max, Team, and Enterprise users. Claude Code allows command-line coding tasks. A new integration tool connects Claude to apps like Jira, Zapier, and Asana. The research feature now offers deep analysis from web and data sources, similar to deep research capabilities from Google and OpenAI. All features are included in the current Pro plan at no extra cost.
