Anthropic’s Claude gets a major memory upgrade — transparent, compartmentalized & editable

Anthropic’s Claude gets a major memory upgrade — transparent, compartmentalized & editable Anthropic has rolled out a substantial upgrade to Claude’s memory features for paying users. The update adds more transparent, editable memory syntheses, per‑Project memory compartments, and the ability to import and export saved memories from other chatbots — all designed to make Claude more useful while giving users clearer control over what the assistant remembers. The new memory set is optional and controlled via settings: Max subscribers can enable it today, with Pro access following in the coming days. Anthropic says Claude will learn a user’s preferences and work patterns over time so it can provide more helpful, context‑aware responses.

Edge’s Copilot Mode adds Copilot Actions, Journeys and optional browsing-history access Microsoft has rolled out notable updates to Edge’s Copilot Mode, bringing features that were teased earlier this year into a US‑only limited preview.

Baby Steps: Maxi Boch says the game isn’t finished — audio fixes and brighter plans ahead

Baby Steps isn’t finished — Maxi Boch, audio fixes and what’s next for the walking sim Baby Steps, the walking‑sim from Maxi Boch, Bennett Foddy and Gabe Cuzzillo, launched on September 23, 2025 — but developer Boch says the project still isn’t "done." The debut suffered launch‑day audio sampling and timing issues that affected many of the game’s reactive sounds, a core part of Boch’s audio‑first design. Boch, who previously worked on big music titles like Rock Band and Fantasia: Music Evolved, led the game’s dynamic audio system. The team used a mix of middleware and bespoke tooling to create reactive musical cues tied to Nate’s footsteps; late‑stage problems meant some samples didn't trigger as intended at release.
