Just found out about this and had to share because almost nobody is talking about it yet. If you are tired of paying for AI courses or getting hit with paywalls just to get a certificate, Anthropic (the creators of Claude) quietly dropped a massive library of completely free, official training modules. Yes, they actually give you an official certificate of completion directly from Anthropic once you finish. Here is the breakdown of what is available and exactly how to get it without spending a dime. What is in the course catalog? They have split the training into a few different paths de...

Spotify and Universal Music Group (UMG) announced a licensing deal that will allow users to prompt the creation of AI-generated remixes and covers for streaming songs. The tool will be a paid add-on for Premium subscribers. Artists will be able to opt out of the program, but those who do participate will collect royalties on these AI remixes. In October of last year, Spotify announced that it was working with UMG, as well as other major labels, Sony Music Group, Warner Music Group, Merlin, and Believe, to create "responsible AI products." At the time, it was unclear exactly what that meant. B...

Studio by Spotify Labs is a new standalone AI app that generates a daily briefing, podcasts, and playlists on your PC using chatbot prompts. The AI-generated content draws from your Spotify listening history, as well as info from apps you connect to it, like your email inbox, calendar, and notes. Spotify says its AI can also "take action on your behalf," such as "researching topics, using a web browser, organizing information, and helping complete tasks." Any content you generate in Studio, like a daily briefing podcast, can be saved to your Spotify library. It will be launching "in the comin...

A still from Innovative Dreams, a new production company by Luma and Wonder Project | Image: Luma/X This is Lowpass by Janko Roettgers, a newsletter on the ever-evolving intersection of tech and entertainment, syndicated just for The Verge subscribers once a week. Hollywood is cooked - or so a growing number of people on social media would like you to believe. Their purported proof: AI-generated clips of Daniel Craig riding a Vespa through an Italian city, Godzilla fighting King Kong, or The Avengers zooming through Manhattan. In reality, cheap slop like this won't replace Hollywood blockbust...

Telcos around the world are building sovereign AI factories based on the NVIDIA Cloud Partner (NCP) reference architecture, giving governments, enterprises, and startups access to in‑country AI infrastructure with the right controls, trust, and performance. But infrastructure alone doesn’t get you to high-margin, production-ready enterprise AI services. Model sizes and reasoning workloads… Source

Hey, I have a few Claude questions and I’m hoping someone here knows what’s going on. \- Is Sonnet 4.5 actually being removed? I’ve seen posts saying it was taken out, but I still have access to it on Claude Pro. I honestly like it way more than 4.6, but I don’t want to get attached if it’s going to disappear soon. \- Why is Sonnet 4.6 suddenly denying my prompts? I mainly use Claude for writing novels and fanfics, and 4.6 was working pretty well for that until today, when it started refusing requests out of nowhere. and yes, sometimes I ask it to write more mature/spicy scenes for contex...
