MAIN AI UPDATES / 21st January 2026
🏥 Claude steps into personal health 🏥
Anthropic's AI assistant now analyzes medical records and fitness metrics directly from mobile devices.
Anthropic has launched four new health integrations for Claude, connecting to Apple Health on iOS, Health Connect on Android, plus HealthEx and Function platforms. With explicit user opt-in, Claude can now summarize medical histories, explain test results in plain language, and detect patterns across fitness metrics—all without using health data for training. The feature is available in beta for Pro and Max subscribers in the US. This positions Anthropic as the first major AI lab to offer native health data integration, opening a new category of personalized AI assistance where users can finally get meaningful insights from fragmented health records.
📱 Gemini in Chrome adds Skills for agents 📱
Google's browser AI gains a new interface for learning and executing complex workflows autonomously.
Google is upgrading Gemini in Chrome into a proactive AI agent capable of performing complex tasks autonomously. A hidden internal testing page reveals a dedicated "skills" interface where users can define specific capabilities, effectively teaching Gemini how to handle repetitive workflows within the browser. Users can create custom automation routines that the AI executes independently, from filling forms to navigating multi-step processes. The shift from reactive assistance to proactive task execution could reshape how millions interact with web applications daily, positioning Chrome as the default platform for browser-based AI automation.
📄 Microsoft-OpenAI files surface in Musk lawsuit 📄
Over 200 internal documents reveal the aggressive strategy behind the $13 billion investment.
Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI has surfaced over 200 internal documents exposing the partnership dynamics behind Microsoft's $13 billion investment. The files reveal a deal driven by Microsoft's fear of falling behind Google, detailing how the tech giant secured exclusive cloud rights and influenced OpenAI's shift from its non-profit origins. This transformation is central to Musk's pursuit of $134 billion in damages. While ChatGPT's success validated the investment, the documents expose a fragile relationship strained by board crises and power struggles—providing rare transparency into the alliance that positioned Microsoft at the forefront of the generative AI boom.
INTERESTING TO KNOW
🔞 OpenAI is deploying age prediction for adult mode 🔞
OpenAI is deploying an AI-powered age prediction system for ChatGPT, rolling out first in the EU in the coming weeks. The tool automatically estimates whether users are under 18 and restricts access to sensitive content. Users incorrectly flagged as minors can restore full access through selfie-based verification via Persona. This safety infrastructure appears foundational for OpenAI's reported plans to launch an uncensored "adult mode" in early 2026—a key step toward expanded content options for 800 million weekly users.
💰 Humans& raises $480M seed at $4.5B valuation 💰
AI startup Humans& has secured $480 million in seed funding at a $4.5 billion valuation, with participation from Nvidia, Jeff Bezos, and GV. Founded by researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, xAI, and Meta, the company is building "human-centric" AI focused on collaboration rather than replacement—functioning like an intelligent group chat that coordinates teams and stores memory. The massive round signals strong investor conviction in alternatives to pure automation approaches.
