Big migrations and refactors are some of a team's most important work, and the easiest to push off to a "better time" since they'd tie up engineers for a quarter. With dynamic workflows, Claude can now land that kind of work in days or weeks. More: t.co

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Written for: People building with AI

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

Fable 5.1 is our best model yet for coding, data analysis, computer use, design, presentations, Tag, and the hardest long-running agentic work. This model is a pleasure to work with, and I've been using it for everything.

We're launching Claude Tag today. Tag Claude into Slack and it works in channel with you. It’s proactive, multiplayer, with its own identity and memory. But it’s not just a bot in Slack. Over the last few months, it’s totally changed how we use Claude

The UK AISI found Mythos Preview is the first model to solve both their cyber ranges end-to-end. No model had ever solved the AISI’s “Cooling Tower” cyber range before. We're getting it to defenders as fast as we responsibly can. More to come on our Glasswing work soon.

Starting tomorrow at 12pm PT, Claude subscriptions will no longer cover usage on third-party tools like OpenClaw. You can still use these tools with your Claude login via extra usage bundles (now available at a discount), or with a Claude API key.

🎁 Happy Friday - Opus 4.6 1M is now the default Opus model for Claude Code users on Max, Team, and Enterprise plans. Pro and Sonnet users can opt in with /extra-usage.

We've been working on this for a while -- it's impressive (and scary) to see the kinds of security issues it has identified. Rolling out slowly, starting as a research preview for Team and Enterprise customers.
