Hey, AI Enthusiast!

Welcome back to the #1 AI newsletter in the world.

Today, we’ve got Claude reporting “intrusive thoughts” when researchers hacked its processing, Casio’s AI plush toy that learns your voice and shows real moods, OpenAI’s Aardvark finding hidden bugs, DeepSeek’s AI memory fix, and humanoid robots entering homes in 2026.

On this day in 2018…

The Latest Developments in AI

After acquiring the Superhuman email client, Grammarly rebranded under the same name and rolled out Superhuman Go, an AI assistant that enhances writing and integrates with tools like Jira and Google Calendar for task and workflow management. CRM access is coming soon as well.

OpenAI’s new code-evaluation model scans open-source projects like OpenSSH, Postgres, and PHP for bugs humans struggle to catch. It validates issues through automated tools and scripting, turning findings into actionable reports that appear in public commits with “reported by Aardvark” tags.

Starting November 4, Indian users will get a free one-year ChatGPT Go subscription. OpenAI is responding to India’s massive download numbers but limited revenue, using the premium tier’s enhanced features to convert engagement into sticky adoption.

Mind-Blowing AI

Moflin is Casio’s answer to what happens when emotional AI meets a therapeutic plush toy that actually remembers you.

It learns your voice, recognizes when you’re nearby, and shows different moods based on how you treat it. Give it love and attention, and it becomes cheerful and affectionate. Ignore it or startle it, and it gets quieter or withdrawn. It charges in a little bed, lasts about 5 hours per charge, and syncs with an app so you can see how your bond is evolving. 🐾💙
