xAI just rolled Grok 4.3 out to the full API on April 30, 2026, two weeks after a $300/month beta locked behind SuperGrok Heavy. The bigger story is the price reset. Grok 4.3 now runs at $1.25 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens, an input cut of roughly 40% and an output cut closer to 60% versus Grok 4.20. It scores 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, slotting just above Claude Sonnet 4.6 and well below GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, and Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview. This Grok 4.3 review covers what actually changed since the April beta, where Grok now stands against the other frontier […]

WWDC 2026 runs June 8 to 12, with the keynote on Monday, June 8 at 10am Pacific Time streamed on Apple.com, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. Apple sent media invites on May 18, 2026 confirming the full schedule, and on May 23 quietly registered a new genai.apple.com subdomain that almost nobody outside MacRumors has spotted. This year’s keynote is the most consequential AI moment Apple has ever had. On January 12, 2026, Apple and Google jointly announced that the next generation of Apple Foundation Models will be built on a custom 1.2-trillion-parameter Google Gemini model. Apple is reportedly paying around $1 billion per year for it. […]

We pulled every number directly from claude.com/pricing, the official Claude API docs, and AWS Bedrock, then […]

xAI now sells Grok across six consumer tiers plus a separate developer API, and the price spread between them is huge. The free tier costs $0, X Premium is $8 per month, SuperGrok Lite is $10 per month, SuperGrok is $30 per month, X Premium+ is $40 per month, and SuperGrok Heavy sits at the top at $300 per month. On the API side, the new flagship Grok 4.3 runs $1.25 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens at a 1M token context window, with Grok 4.20 still available at $2.00 / $6.00 and Grok 4.1 Fast as low as $0.20 / $0.50 per million.

Google launched the native Gemini Mac app on April 15, 2026. It ends a long stretch where Mac users had to run Gemini in a browser tab while ChatGPT and Claude already had proper desktop apps. The download is free, the install takes under two minutes, and the headline feature is the Option + Space global hotkey that brings up Gemini from anywhere on your Mac without breaking your workflow. If you already use Gemini on the web or on iPhone, this is the upgrade you have been waiting for. If you have been weighing Gemini against ChatGPT or Claude, the playing field just changed. This guide walks you through […]

No, Claude cannot generate images. Anthropic’s own help center confirms it. Claude “does not generate photos or illustrations” the way DALL-E, Midjourney, or Nano Banana do. If you have asked Claude to draw something and watched it apologize, you are not missing a hidden setting. The feature simply does not exist inside Claude. If you need images, start with a dedicated free AI photo generator instead. That said, you have options. Claude can still build SVG diagrams, interactive charts, and as of April 17, 2026, full slide decks and prototypes through Claude Design. And if you want actual images, like a real photo or illustration, the cleanest fix on Mac […]

Kimi K2.6 is the new open-source AI model from China’s Moonshot AI, released on April 20, 2026. It just tied GPT-5.5 on the toughest coding benchmark in the industry, at roughly 80% less per million tokens. The open-weight race kept moving fast, and GLM 5.2 has since pulled ahead of GPT-5.5 on SWE-bench Pro. With 1 trillion total parameters, 32 billion active per token, and a 256K-token context window, K2.6 is now the #1 open-weight model on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. In this article you will find what Kimi K2.6 actually does well, where it still loses to Claude Opus 4.7 and GPT-5.5, exactly how much it costs, and […]

DeepSeek pricing in 2026 spans four tiers: a free web chat at chat.deepseek.com, the flagship DeepSeek V4 Flash API at $0.14/$0.28 per million tokens, DeepSeek V4 Pro at $0.435/$0.87 per million tokens, and a free API grant of 5 million tokens for every new developer account. All V4 models ship with a native 1 million token context window at no extra charge, making DeepSeek roughly 35 to 100 times cheaper per token than GPT-5.5 or Claude Opus 4.8. This guide covers every part of DeepSeek pricing in 2026: the new V4 Flash and V4 Pro API rates, the legacy V3 chat and R1 reasoner costs, the free tier and the […]

Apple’s 2026 iPad lineup splits cleanly into four models, but only three of them can actually run Apple Intelligence, and the gap between the cheapest iPad for AI and the iPad Pro M5 is now over $650. The base iPad 11 ($349) still ships with the A16 chip and 6GB of RAM, which means no on-device generative AI features at all. Above it sit the iPad mini ($499), the iPad Air M4 ($599), and the iPad Pro M5 ($999), each unlocking a different level of AI performance. This guide breaks down every iPad you can buy in April 2026, what kind of AI on iPad each one can realistically handle, […]
