Anthropic Launches Claude Duet to Track Your Apps and Prioritize Tasks
Anthropic has introduced Claude Duet, a proactive AI agent powered by Opus 5.5. Built for professionals and small businesses, it spots what needs attention, handles tasks, and keeps working even after you close the app.
Details:
It sends daily briefings, checks connected apps every few hours, and flags urgent updates. Your existing Claude memory, skills, and integrations carry over, with text and voice messaging
With 6,000+ connectors and its own cloud browser, it can work on emails, meetings, invoices, payroll, contracts, reports, dashboards, and even build web apps in background
It asks permission before sending messages, paying, signing, or deleting. Safeguards protect sensitive data, but it can misjudge urgency and isn't as strong at personal errands
Claude Duet is in US research preview via waitlist for Pro and Max users on iOS, Android, and web. Background checks count toward plan limits.
Barclays
Barclays to Cut 5,000 Jobs as AI Drives Global Workforce Restructuring
Barclays plans to cut around 5,000 jobs, roughly 5% of its workforce, by the end of 2026. The British bank links the reductions to AI-driven efficiency, simpler operations, and a wider push to lower operating costs.
Details:
About 1,000 jobs have already been eliminated, with another 4,000 expected to go by year-end. The cuts form part of Barclays' longer-term plan to modernize systems and reduce fixed costs
Around 60% of the cuts will affect support functions, including developers. Finance chief Anna Cross says AI is making staff more productive as the bank streamlines operations
Barclays reported a 12% rise in third-quarter pretax profit to £2.3 billion, but missed forecasts as fixed-income trading fell 19%. It also booked £201 million in structural cost actions
Barclays is investing in AI and reducing staff, but hasn't said AI alone caused every cut. The reductions are part of a broader cost-cutting overhaul.

How to Turn an AI-Coded Website Into an Editable Canva Design
AI can generate a website in minutes, but polishing it can get technical. Canva Code 2.0 lets you import AI-generated HTML as an editable design, so you can quickly refine the layout, branding, text, and visuals.
Create website with AI
First, build your website using your preferred AI coding tool. For example:
ChatGPT or Codex
Claude
Gemini
Cursor
Another AI website builder
Ask it to create the landing page, portfolio, calculator, dashboard, or interactive experience you need.
Example prompt:
“Create a responsive landing page for an AI productivity app. Include a hero section, feature cards, testimonials, pricing section, FAQ, and CTA. Use a clean modern SaaS design.”Export HTML file
Once the website looks right, export or download the project as an HTML file.
Canva Code 2.0 can import HTML created outside Canva, including work generated by other AI assistants.
Import it into Canva
Open Canva and sign in. From the homepage, either open Code or upload your HTML/code file directly. Canva will convert the imported project into an editable Canva design.
Edit website visually
You can work on the website using Canva’s familiar visual editor instead of manually changing HTML. You can:
Rewrite text
Change fonts
Adjust colors
Move elements
Replace images
Upload your own graphics
Drag in assets from Canva’s library
Canva says imported Code projects can be manually edited like other Canva designs.
Refine sections with AI
If one section still doesn’t look right, you don’t need to rebuild the entire page. Select the element or section you want to change and use Canva AI to refine it conversationally.
For example:
“Make this hero section more premium. Use larger typography, more whitespace, and a stronger CTA.”Check mobile responsiveness
Before publishing, preview how the website behaves on different screen sizes.
Resize the design inside the editor to test desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts. Canva Code designs can automatically reflow as the available screen size changes.
Publish website
Once everything looks right, select Publish Website to put the project online, or use Share if you want teammates to review and edit it first.
Note: Avoid relying heavily on JavaScript. Imported Canva designs currently don’t support JavaScript functionality.
