The first integration will be IBM's IDE with plans to add more soon.

As part of the deal, IBM will also provide corporate education products designed to help businesses build and use AI agents based on Anthropic's technology.

The education will include guides on how to utilize MCP servers in the enterprise.

None of the deal terms were disclosed, but Mike Krieger, Anthropic's chief product officer, said, IBM knows how to navigate enterprise barriers.

They understand existing tech stacks, have deep consulting capabilities, and can help with change management at scale.

This partnership combines our AI capabilities with IBM's enterprise expertise to make adoption happen where it matters most.

This is the second big enterprise win for Anthropic this week, after announcing on Monday their largest-ever deployment bringing cloud access to 470,000 workers at Deloitte.

Lastly today, XAI has released a big new update to their video generation model, upgrading Grok Imagine from version 0.1 to 0.9.

The Imagine platform was launched over the summer, but is getting a refresh with the much more powerful image-to-video model.

The output is now much higher quality, capable of accurately producing high-motion videos and emulating tricky features like reflections.

It also adds native audio and dialogue generation paired to the video clips, which of course was the huge unlock when VO3 first came out a few months ago.

People are liking the results so far, the obvious comparison being how well it performs relative to Sora 2.

In some instances I've seen, they're fairly close, but in others there's still a fairly big difference.

Still, XAI have made the app completely free and plugged it into X as a way to share on social media.

In fact, you can use Grok to instantly animate any image on X. If nothing else, it is very clear that we are absolutely headed into the era of inexpensive, quick, and easy to generate video.

That is, of course, why some people are very excited about all the rumors surging that we are about to get VO3.1.

It seems to be showing up in tools like Higgs field.

And so now the only question is whether coming soon means this week or in the next couple of weeks.

However, speaking of AI video, that is the subject of our main episode, to which we now turn.
