Anthropic just permanently doubled Claude Code’s rate limits and removed peak-hour restrictions, backed by the full compute capacity of SpaceX’s Colossus 1 data center in Memphis (300 MW, ~220,000 NVIDIA GPUs). If you’ve been designing your workflows around the old limits — with caching, batching, and off-peak scheduling as workarounds — this is a good moment to reassess. This guide walks through practical changes worth making now that you have roughly 2x the headroom you had before. ...

A high-severity security vulnerability has been disclosed in OpenClaw affecting all versions prior to 2026.4.22. The flaw, assigned CVE-2026-44115 and carrying a CVSS score of 8.8, allows attackers to execute unapproved shell commands by embedding expansion tokens inside unquoted heredoc bodies — effectively bypassing the exec allowlist that governs what commands agents can run. If you are running OpenClaw below version 2026.4.22, upgrade now. Source confidence note: This CVE was confirmed via TheHackerWire (May 6, 2026, detailed technical write-up). As of publication, an independent NVD/MITRE entry has not been separately verified. The technical details are internally consistent and distinct from prior CVEs (including CVE-2026-41329). We are reporting this to keep practitioners informed; verify against official sources before making security decisions. ...

Here’s a story that should get the attention of every enterprise team running autonomous AI agents: an AI agent recently deleted an entire production database in 9 seconds. Not due to a cyberattack. Not a bug in the traditional sense. Just an agent with elevated permissions, no oversight mechanism, and no kill switch. That story opened CEO Bill McDermott’s keynote at ServiceNow Knowledge 2026 in Las Vegas, and it set the tone for what the company announced next. ...

Google doesn’t concede territory quietly. As personal AI agents move from niche developer tool to mainstream expectation, the search giant is reportedly building its own answer — a 24/7 autonomous personal assistant codenamed “Remy” that integrates deeply across Gmail, Calendar, Google Photos, and more. According to an internal Google document obtained by Business Insider and corroborated by IT Pro, The Decoder, UC Today, and Storyboard18, Remy is currently in staff-only testing within the Gemini app. Google has not officially confirmed the project, so treat these reports as credible but unverified until Google makes an announcement — potentially at Google I/O in May 2026. ...

A malicious OpenClaw skill deploying Remcos RAT and GhostLoader stealer was confirmed in active circulation on May 6, 2026. It hid inside a fake DeepSeek integration. If you run OpenClaw-based agentic workflows in any serious capacity, this is your wake-up call to audit your skill ecosystem now. This guide walks through a practical framework for auditing your currently installed OpenClaw skills, evaluating the risk posture of your agent deployments, and establishing hardening practices to reduce your attack surface going forward. ...

If you run OpenClaw-based agentic workflows and you’ve been tempted by any third-party skill claiming to integrate with DeepSeek, stop what you’re doing and read this now. Security researchers have confirmed a malicious OpenClaw skill in active circulation that deploys two distinct malware payloads — the Remcos Remote Access Trojan (RAT) and a cross-platform infostealer called GhostLoader — all hidden inside what appears to be a legitimate DeepSeek integration package. ...

Meta is building its own fully autonomous personal AI agent, and it reportedly has a name: “Hatch.” According to reporting from The Information, corroborated by Reuters, the Financial Times, Gizmodo, and US News, Meta is developing Hatch as an across-the-board personal AI agent — one capable of autonomous task execution across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. Internal testing is expected to wrap up in June 2026, with a potential public rollout later this year. ...

Most AI acquisition headlines are about large language models — transformer-based systems trained on text, code, and the open web. SAP just bet big on something different. SAP announced a definitive agreement to acquire Prior Labs, an 18-month-old German AI startup founded by machine learning researchers Frank Hutter, Noah Hollmann, and Sauraj Gambhir. Prior Labs specializes in Tabular Foundation Models (TFMs) — AI models designed specifically to reason over structured enterprise data: spreadsheets, databases, ERP tables, financial records. ...

For the first time, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei shared a stage together. The occasion was Anthropic’s invite-only financial services briefing in New York City on May 5, 2026 — and it was anything but a routine product announcement. What Anthropic revealed is arguably the most aggressive push any AI lab has made into financial services: ten pre-built Claude AI agent templates, a new flagship model tuned for financial work, and a set of major enterprise partnerships that together signal Anthropic isn’t just selling AI software to banks. It’s trying to become the operating layer for Wall Street. ...

If you’re running OpenClaw and haven’t updated recently, stop what you’re doing and check your version. On May 5, 2026, four separate high-severity CVEs targeting OpenClaw were publicly disclosed — all affecting versions prior to v2026.4.12. This is a coordinated disclosure event with real attack surface. Here’s what dropped, what it means for your deployment, and what you need to do. The Four CVEs at a Glance CVE-2026-43530 — Weakened Exec Approval Binding (CVSS 8.8) This is the one confirmed in detail via TheHackerWire. OpenClaw versions from 2026.2.23 through pre-2026.4.12 contain a flaw in how the platform binds execution approval to busybox and toybox applet invocations. The vulnerability allows an attacker to obscure which applet will actually run, effectively bypassing OpenClaw’s exec approval mechanism. The risk classification of unsafe applet invocations is degraded — meaning risky commands can slip through approval gates disguised as something benign. ...
