We’re introducing a global default enablement policy for generally available Copilot models on Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise plans. Instead of requiring admins to manually turn on each new model...
This one centers on Default model enablement for Copilot Business and Enterprise, so weigh it before it changes your defaults. For builders, this can change a default in the review, editor, or build workflow you touch every day.
OpenAI is giving 100,000 academic researchers free access to ChatGPT's most advanced AI models to accelerate scientific research, collaboration, and discovery.
The hook is Accelerating scientific discovery with ChatGPT for Academic Researchers; check whether it touches the tools you already run. For researchers and builders, this is an early signal to fold into evaluation, model choice, or agent design.
CodeQL is the static analysis engine behind GitHub code scanning, which finds and remediates security issues in your code. We’ve recently released CodeQL 2.26.1, which improves framework coverage for Go,...
The hook is CodeQL 2.26.1 improves analysis accuracy and framework coverage; check whether it touches the tools you already run. For teams giving agents real access, this surfaces a failure mode worth weighing before widening agent or tool permissions.
GPT-5.6 improves AI efficiency across models, inference, and agentic workflows, helping deliver more useful intelligence per dollar.
The hook is How GPT-5.6 fuses frontier intelligence with frontier efficiency; check whether it touches the tools you already run. For agent builders, this marks where planning, memory, or long-horizon behavior still breaks.
Copilot app usage is now reported across much more of the Copilot usage metrics API. Individual Copilot app activity is now attributed to users in the enterprise-user and organization-user reports....
What's actually new here is GitHub Copilot app usage metrics now expand - see if it moves anything you maintain. For builders, this can change a default in the review, editor, or build workflow you touch every day.
As part of our ongoing supply-chain security work, npm is introducing automatic scanning of packages at publish time. This changelog covers what publishers can expect and a new metadata requirement...
At its core this is about npm publish-time malware scanning and dual-use metadata, worth a look if that's in your workflow. For teams giving agents real access, this surfaces a failure mode worth weighing before widening agent or tool permissions.
