Moonshot's open model Kimi K2.7 Code undercuts GPT-5.5 and Claude by up to 12x on price per token

Moonshot AI has released Kimi K2.7 Code, an open-weights model with one trillion parameters built for programming. It still trails GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 in coding benchmarks but costs a fraction of the price. So the key question isn't whether it's the best model, but whether the extra runs you get for the same budget make up for the gap in quality.

Anthropic Disables Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 After US Government Order

Anthropic has disabled its two most capable models for every customer following a US government export control directive. The order arrived on June 12, 2026, naming Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 specifically. Access by any foreign national, inside or outside the United States, was suspended. Unable to filter foreign nationals in real time, Anthropic shut down both models for everyone to ensure compliance. All other Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8, remain available.

US government forces Anthropic to disable Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all customers worldwide

The US government has ordered Anthropic to shut down global access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5, citing alleged jailbreak risks. Anthropic is complying but pushing back publicly: the vulnerabilities are minor and exist in competing models like GPT-5.5, the company says, an ironic turn after the company spent months hyping the cybersecurity risks of its own Mythos class. Anthropic warns the move could set a precedent that halts all frontier deployments.

A Coding Implementation on Spatial Graph Neural Networks for Urban Function Inference Using city2graph, OSMnx, and PyTorch Geometric

This tutorial presents an end-to-end spatial graph learning pipeline using city2graph for urban function inference. It collects POI and street network data from OpenStreetMap, with a synthetic fallback for reliability. It engineers spatial features, constructs multiple proximity graph families, and trains a GraphSAGE model to predict POI categories. The workflow integrates geospatial processing, graph construction, and GNN training into a practical implementation.

Has AI Killed How-To Nonfiction?

Tim Ferriss presents startling sales data showing his bestselling books have dropped ~80% since ChatGPT's launch, arguing that large language models are replacing prescriptive nonfiction as the go-to interface for advice. He warns that the same disruption is coming for how-to videos, podcasts, online courses, and journalism. Despite caveats, he believes the trend is undeniable and urges creators to focus on deep transformation and 1,000 true fans rather than mass reach.
