  2. Tencent AI Lab just pulled a rabbit out of the hat in the audio generation space with AudioGenie! This "magician" can instantly whip up cinematic sound effects from videos, images, or text, so natural you'll totally forget it's AI doing the heavy lifting. The core magic? An innovative training-free multi-agent framework where an internal "generation team" battles a "supervision team" to self-correct and evolve, completely cutting out the reliance on tons of training data. AudioGenie has already shown some serious muscle against industry behemoths in the world's first MM2MA benchmark test (AI Info).

  3. Anthropic's Claude Code isn't just a cold, hard coding tool anymore; it's leveled up its teaching game! 🧠 It now rocks two brand-new communication styles, making it feel like you've got your own personal programming sensei. You can pick the "explanatory style" to get a deep dive into technical decisions, just like a professor. Or, flip the switch to "learning style" for guided questions that walk you through "pair programming" step-by-step. This update (AI Info) marks a big pivot for AI-assisted programming, moving from plain old "code generators" to "personalized educators," seriously lowering the barrier to entry for coding. Woohoo!
