In the future, you’ll be able to accomplish a goal by just giving Claude an outcome and a budget. That’s the direction Anthropic is building in with its new Managed Agents features, announced at this week’s Code with Claude developer event. The basic idea: Claude, wrapped in a computer in the cloud, that you can spin up, scale, and manage as needed. Anthropic is taking on the infrastructure that kills most agent products, and making sure that it scales to meet the needs of agents running 24/7. On this week’s AI & I from Every 📧, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below! Timestamps: How the Claude platform evolved from API to agents: 00:01:48 The primitives that make up Claude Managed Agents: 00:04:09 Why the harness and the model are becoming a single unit: 00:10:37 The infrastructure wall that kills most agent projects in production: 00:18:49 Why team agents need a different shape than individual productivity tools: 00:24:49 How Anthropic's legal team uses an agent to review marketing copy: 00:26:36 Using multi-agent orchestration for advisor strategies, adversarial pairs, and swarms: 00:34:24 How to measure agent success with outcome and budget as the end state: 00:35:50 What the platform looks like a year from now, when Claude writes its own harness: 00:39:11

AI INTERVIEW: OPENAI'S SECRET WEAPON AI agents are no longer just hype—they're here to revolutionize automation, Web3, and beyond. SwarmNode.ai is building a serverless AI agent platform for scalability, efficiency, and real-world impact. In this exclusive interview, he reveals how AI swarms can outperform single models, why OpenAI’s Operator is just the beginning, and how crypto is fueling AI innovation. Plus, he breaks down DeepSeek’s game-changing AI breakthrough, the future of agent monetization, and why serverless AI could be the next frontier in automation. 01:37 – From Engineering to AI: The journey into artificial intelligence. 02:43 – The GPT-3 Moment: How OpenAI’s tech pulled him in. 04:10 – AI’s Biggest Challenge: Why real-world use cases lag behind. 05:05 – OpenAI’s Operator: Why it’s “rudimentary” (for now). 06:25 – Crypto & AI: How tokens help bootstrap AI startups. 08:15 – Can You Bootstrap a Startup with a Token? The trade-offs. 09:56 – 90% of AI Token Holders Don’t Use the Product—Does It Matter? 11:18 – What is SwarmNode?: AI agents, hosted serverlessly. 14:23 – AI Swarms: Why multiple agents outperform single models. 16:08 – What is a Swarm?

"Aging is the process of a complex system slowly falling into its chaotic disequilibrium. And it's not like evolution necessarily even set a lifespan for us. It is merely the result of, once the system has been established, how long its intrinsic property stayed ordered before it became disordered." I’m excited to share my conversation with Jacob Kimmel of NewLimit. Every species who has ever lived has one shared certainty: we’ll age, decay, and die. Jacob and his team are among the small group of people on earth with the expertise and funding to work on this problem. We talked about why we age, whether cellular aging can actually be reversed, how evolution shaped our lifespan and our peaks, and how AI is fundamentally changing the next era of science. Recorded at New Limit’s HQ in South San Francisco.

François Chollet (François Chollet) has spent years asking a different question than most of the AI world. Instead of scaling what already works, he’s trying to understand what intelligence actually is and how to build it from first principles. In this episode of the Lightcone Podcast, he traces that path from his early work on deep learning to the creation of the ARC Prize, and the launch of ARC V3, a new benchmark designed to measure something deeper than performance: the ability to learn, adapt, and reason efficiently in entirely new environments. He explains why today’s systems may be hitting limits, what recent breakthroughs really mean, and why reaching true general intelligence may require a fundamentally different approach. 00:00 - AGI by 2030? 00:31 - Introducing Ndea: A New Path Beyond Deep Learning 01:08 - A New ML Paradigm 01:30 - Replacing neural nets with compact symbolic programs 03:04 - Why Ndea Isn’t Competing With Coding Agents 05:20 - Why Everyone Might Be Wrong About Scaling LLMs 07:22 - Why Coding Agents Suddenly Work So Well 08:50 - The Limits of LLMs in Non-Verifiable Domains 10:48 - What AGI Actually Means (And Why Most Definitions Are Wrong) 13:30 - Why Deep Learning Hits a Wall 14:00 - ARC’s Origin Story 18:20 - ARC Benchmarks Explained: From V1 to V3 22:49 - The RL Loop Powering Coding Agents Today 27:03 - ARC-AGI V3: Measuring “Agentic Intelligence” 31:14 - Inside the ARC Game Studio 35:31 - Could AGI Fit in 10,000 Lines of Code? 44:01 - Building Ndea: From Idea to Compounding Research Stack 46:46 - The Future of ARC: Benchmarks That Evolve With AI 47:21 - Why There’s Still Huge Opportunity for New AI Paradigms 53:37 - How to Build a Breakout Open Source Project - Lessons From Keras 56:39 - Advice For How To Think About AI
