MAIN AI UPDATES / 18th November 2025
🚀 Jeff Bezos co-launches secretive AI startup Project Prometheus 🚀
Amazon founder returns to operational role with $6.2 billion venture
Jeff Bezos has launched Project Prometheus, a secretive AI startup focused on advancing artificial intelligence technology for real-world applications. The venture has raised $6.2 billion in funding (partly from Bezos himself) and hired nearly 100 employees from leading AI companies. This marks Bezos' first formal operational role since stepping down as Amazon CEO in 2021, where he serves as co-CEO alongside physicist and chemist Vik Bajaj. The massive funding and talent acquisition signals a major new player entering the AI frontier model race.
🧠 Google to release Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro next week 🧠
Major AI model update brings Pro-grade tools to platform ecosystem
Google plans to launch Gemini 3 alongside Nano Banana Pro next week, continuing its pattern of simultaneous model updates across its entire suite. The Pro branding suggests Google is positioning these as production-ready, accessible generative tools for enterprise and consumer applications.
🔧 Claude API launches structured outputs in public beta 🔧
Anthropic addresses JSON validation issues with schema-constrained responses
Anthropic has released structured outputs in public beta for Claude Sonnet 4.5 and Opus 4.1, with Haiku 4.5 support coming soon. The feature constrains Claude's responses to follow specific schemas, eliminating malformed JSON responses and invalid tool inputs that previously broke applications. This addresses a critical pain point for developers building production AI applications that require reliable, parseable output formats, significantly improving developer experience.
