⌛️ 30-Hour Coding Window

+ Buy stuff in ChatGPT

In partnership with

Hey folks,

ChatGPT just got an upgrade so you can now buy stuff right inside the chat. With Instant Checkout, OpenAI’s partnering with Etsy (and soon Shopify) to let U.S. users go from asking “What’s a good gift?” to clicking “Buy” without leaving the chat conversation. It’s a bold push into agentic commerce and a serious signal that ChatGPT may want to be your go-to shopping assistant next.

Let’s dive in..

⌛️ Claude Sonnet 4.5 Arrives: 30-Hour Coding Window

🐝 The Buzz: Anthropic just launched Claude Sonnet 4.5, and it’s smash coding records, not just in specs, but in how long it stays useful. The biggest headline is it can code autonomously for 30 hours straight, a steep leap from earlier models. The upgrade also leans hard into stronger reasoning, better computer interaction, and improved performance across scientific, financial, and coding tasks.

  • Long haul mode unlocked: In tests, Sonnet 4.5 created a full web app during a 30-hour continuous run.

  • Smarter “computer use”: It’s stronger at interacting with operating systems, running scripts, navigating files, executing actions.

  • Sharper reasoning: Across domain-specific tasks (science, finance, etc.), it makes fewer errors, handles edge cases better, and exhibits more consistency.

  • Tooling & API: The update brings enhancements: context editing, memory modules, code execution integration in chats, check-points, VS Code extensions, and a cleaner terminal interface.

💡 Takeaway: Sonnet 4.5 pushes AI models closer to working independently on serious development tasks. For teams building agentic systems or delegating multi-step workflows, its ability to stay “on task” for hours could redefine what you trust AI to handle. That said, the extra autonomy demands stronger safety, better oversight, and more real-world stress testing.

Together with Speedeon Data

The audience tool marketers actually recommend.

Look, you’ve been in marketing long enough to know that "custom audiences" usually means "custom headaches." You know the drill… submit a request, wait three weeks, get back audiences that somehow missed the mark.

Speedeon's AudienceMaker flips this whole thing on its head. We're talking about a platform that gives you access to 1000+ data points, lets you build audiences and custom models in real-time, and pushes them directly to Meta, Google, TikTok, Amazon—wherever you're running campaigns.

The best part? No data science degree required. No endless Slack threads with the analytics team. Just point, click, and watch your targeting get scary good.

Request a demo and Speedeon will even throw in a free audience analysis of your current customers. You'll want to see what you've been missing.

🤖 Meta’s Metabot Bets on Humanoid Robots

🐝 The Buzz: Meta is quietly gearing up to bring Metabot to life, a software-driven humanoid robotics effort that could become a backbone for robotics via AI licensing rather than hardware dominance. It’s a fresh pivot from screens to real-world agents.

  • Software > hardware (for now): Meta believes the real bottleneck is intelligent behavior and how a robot senses, reasons, and acts but not the mechanical parts. Their emphasis is on mastering dexterous control, sensors, and world models.

  • Licensing the brain, not making the body: Meta hints it might license its robotics AI stack and imagine robot makers buying “Metabot brains” instead of Meta building the entire robot.

  • Tied to the Llama & AI arms race: Meta intends to merge this robotics wave with its foundation models, leveraging Llama, sensor models, embodied simulation, and spatial AI.

  • Meta sees robotics as its next AR-scale bet: The internal language suggests robotics is viewed with the same ambition as their prior AR/VR pushes with big investments, long horizon, high potential.

💡 Takeaway: Metabot is Meta’s statement: it wants a seat at the physical AI table. By betting on software, licensing, and integration with its AI stack, Meta’s playing a quiet but potentially powerful game. The real test is whether those robots can move, sense, and interact in messy human spaces as well as they move text across screens.
