Anthropic and Apple go Vibe Coding NotebookLM is getting an app HeyGen adds voice mirroring and there’s a gaming breakthrough with the Quest 3. Here’s today’s AI news Bloomberg Tech editor Mark Gurman broke the news that Apple will be teaming up with Anthropic on a new AI powered Vibe coding platform and is currently rolling it out to employees internally.
It’s unclear what the roadmap is for the product or how and when it might make a public appearance, but this is another great win for Anthropic. Many people have been critical of Apple recently for failing to keep up in the AI race. Can Anthropic give them the boost that they need? Google’s Notebook LLM shared two cool updates today.
Firstly, they announced that they will be dropping a new Notebook LLM app. It’s due for release on May 20th for both Android and iOS. You can already pre order from both stores. Secondly, they have upgraded the underlying model to Gemini 2.5 flash. This should mean that the users will start to see even more comprehensive research and answers.
Our personal favourite AI tool, HeyGen just added a cool new voice mirroring feature to their AI avatar software. This allows users to take any audio and use it as a guide for the avatar to follow so that you can get the exact style, tone and emphasis that you’re looking for. HeyGen has been a fantastic tool in helping this channel achieve consistent content, so we’re really looking forward to trying this.
And finally, the creators of a VR laser tag game have managed to achieve something quite remarkable in Meta Quest 3. With a mixed reality world that can continuously scene mesh your surroundings, this means that there’s no more annoying room setup procedure, you can just pick up the headset and play.
he continuous meshing constructs a real time 3D model of the environment, allowing virtual objects like lasers to interact accurately with physical spaces even as the surroundings change. This might be enough to convince us to buy a quest 3.
