ANTHROPIC

Anthropic is developing custom AI chips for Claude.

Anthropic is building a team to create its own AI chips for Claude. These chips could help Claude work faster, use less power, and cost less to run. The company has not shared when the chips will be ready.

Key Points:

  • Anthropic wants to design special chips that work closely with Claude and future AI models.

  • The new chips could help Claude answer faster, use less electricity, and reduce the cost of running large AI systems.

  • Anthropic will continue using chips from Amazon, Google, Nvidia, and AMD while it develops its own technology.

  • Anthropic has not said who will make the chips, when they will launch, or whether they will be used for training Claude, running Claude, or both.

  • Building a powerful AI chip can cost hundreds of millions of dollars and may take several years to complete.

AI AND BUSINESS

Shopify says AI search is driving more sales, not replacing Google

Shopify says AI search is helping online stores get more visitors and sales. People are finding products through tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot, but Google search is still very important.

Details:

  • Visits and sales from AI tools tripled in the second quarter of 2026 compared with the same time last year.

  • Google still sends more visitors to Shopify stores, and search traffic has grown by about 30% over the past two years.

  • AI tools can understand detailed questions and help shoppers find the right product faster.

  • People coming from AI search often go straight to a product page and may be more ready to buy.

  • Shopify says AI search is becoming a new way to shop, but it is not replacing Google.

AI TUTORIAL

How to automate any boring task using Gemini

You don’t need to repeat the same boring task every week. You can use Gemini to do it for you automatically. Here is how:

  1. Choose a task you repeat often.

  2. Enter a clear prompt, such as: “Every Tuesday at 12:15 PM, create a new Doc in my Drive, find the 5 biggest AI stories from that week, and format each one properly.”

  3. Connect Gemini to Google Drive and approve the schedule.

  4. Let it run automatically.

  5. Every Tuesday, the finished news digest will appear in your Google Drive, directly in a Google Doc

One idea shouldn't take six rewrites to post.

Posting everywhere means rewriting one idea six times, so you post to one, or none. SureThing turns one idea into native posts for every platform.

THE LATEST IN AI

Google parent company Alphabet announced a leadership overhaul of its AI division, with AI chief Demis Hassabis leaving his main managerial role and several leaders of its Gemini model, including veteran engineer Jeff Dean, departing the company.

Students will be able to use Gemini to create things like flashcards or practice quizzes and sync info to Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM). Gemini in Classroom initially launched for educators, then to students 18 or older.

CLAUDE/CHATGPT PROMPT OF THE DAY
