ChatGPT launched a sidebar for Microsoft Word today. We launched a sidebar for EVERY app on your Mac. Sider Omni Sidebar puts an AI agent beside every app — Safari, Mail, Notes, Pages, Xcode, Finder, anything. It sees what you see and does the work right there. Launching on Product Hunt now. If you give it a spin, we'd love to hear how it fits your workflow — leave us a review or drop your thoughts in the comments:

Claude Opus 5.2 spotted on Microsoft Foundry

Microsoft is going ALL IN on government AI. Microsoft 365 G7 brings G5, Copilot, Entra Suite and Agent 365 together for GCC. Available to purchase October 1, with capabilities rolling out in phases. And.. in the announcement… Copilot Cowork. Planned for the months after GA. Government has plenty of work that takes more than a quick chat response.

Delos just leapfrogged Grok and Instinct by giving AI a full professional identity. Each Worker gets its own email, phone number, Microsoft or Google account and its own computer, so it can sit inside any company like a real employee. The €10M it just raised is going into pushing that lead further.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said superintelligence is only worth building if it stays under human control and helps people... he also pushed for companies to keep their own knowledge and learning loops instead of depending on one model provider also announced Microsoft’s own first-party MAI models will get a public Code of Conduct tomorrow..

@satyanadella

Any pursuit of superintelligence has to be grounded in the core principle that if the AI we build is not helping humanity and under human control, it's not worth pursuing. > We also need to accelerate and spread the benefits of AI, such that they are diffused broadly across countries, communities, and companies. This requires a frontier ecosystem in which both closed and open-source models can thrive. > And for firms, it’s imperative that they retain full control over their unique and tacit knowledge. Every organization should be able to build its own continuous learning loop/hill climbing machine, without be
