Aiming to improve the working lives of emergency personnel facing overwhelming influx of data under immense stress, Motorola Solutions has globally expanded its Assist mission-critical AI product designed for public safety. With an initial focus on Europe, the expansion follows “successful deployments of the product” across US public safety agencies, with the company saying the capability is scaling internationally to bring role-specific intelligence to control room operators, emergency responders and investigators, fundamentally accelerating responses. For control room operators, Assist layers intelligent capabilities directly into the core Motorola Solutions’ control room software to help accelerate emergency response. It automatically identifies, gathers and prioritises vital call information – such as historical incident data at a specific location or critical keywords such as “heart attack”. In a bid to minimise miscommunication and preserve operator focus, Assist supports live transcription to enhance clarity by allowing operators and supervisors to reference earlier interactions, note critical info and capture evidence; call translation to bridge language barriers between operators and callers that can “otherwise add an average of 70 seconds ” to an emergency call; and advanced audio enhancement to filter out background noise so operators can hear clearly. There is also a non-emergency call agent that automatically handles routine calls – which can consume up to 65% of call handlers’ workloads – to allow human operators to focus on critical emergencies. Assisting responders in the field, in particular for officers on the beat, Assist presents a mobile-first digital force multiplier at the edge to help enhance productivity, situational awareness and safety. Among the key field capabilities are accelerated search via a field-based app that scans number plates for faster entry and faster identification via appearance search to match images and videos to photos or text descriptions. Voice-based interaction is intended to allow first responders to remain focused and hands-free by using their voice to initiate commands in-vehicle while driving. The platform also offers technology designed to streamline digital investigations for investigators handling large volumes of evidence. Redaction Assist leverages automated object and speaker tracking within the evidence management workflow, automatically tagging evidence and redacting sensitive subjects and objects to accelerate records documentation and to support privacy. Looking to offer proof of the component’s utility, Motorola reported that a US-based agency said the tool dropped its video redaction times from 35 hours down to one hour . “A call taker is the most important piece of the puzzle when it comes to emergencies,” said Casey Allo, chief of emergency communications for Lee County , Florida, a US-based agency using Assist. “Having real-time transcription of the call in front of the call taker, having it translate word for word what the caller is saying, and having it point out keywords you want to flag all point to being more efficient and giving call takers more confidence.” As it continues to expand Assist across its safety and security ecosystem, Motorola Solutions offered assurance that it remained committed to the transparent and responsible deployment of AI, with an Assist emblem indicating when information has been surfaced by AI, so human operators can evaluate and verify the data. In addition, responsible AI product labels detail the type of AI utilised, data ownership, human control mechanisms and the specific purpose of the application for operational transparency. Commenting on the expansion and its aims, Fergus Mayne, vice-president of sales for Europe at Motorola Solutions, said: “By automating routine tasks and surfacing vital insights in real time, Assist cuts through the noise. It reduces the immense cognitive load on front-line teams, empowering them to respond to critical incidents with greater clarity, speed and confidence.” Read more about emergency comms solutions Avaya finds louder voice for mission-critical comms platform : Enterprise software provider unveils mission-critical platform to deliver secure, zero-downtime voice communications for environments including government, healthcare, financial and emergency services.

When Anthropic quietly released Claude Design in April as a " research preview ," it generated the kind of instant traction most product teams dream about: more than one million users in its first week. It also generated a problem. The tool consumed tokens so voraciously that a PCWorld reviewer burned through 80 percent of his weekly Claude Pro allowance in roughly 25 minutes, producing just three variations of a single webpage prototype. "We're talking another token-hungry Claude product here," the reviewer wrote, "one that Pro users in particular will barely be able to use before burning through their usage limits." Two months later, Anthropic is shipping a substantially overhauled version of Claude Design that attempts to fix the consumption issue while simultaneously repositioning the product from a flashy demo into something far more strategically important: a design system compliance layer that connects to code, connects to the tools enterprises already use, and — critically — keeps everything on brand. The update, announced Wednesday, arrives at a moment when Anthropic is executing one of the most aggressive product expansions in the AI industry's brief history. In the past ten weeks alone, the company has launched Claude Opus 4.8 , released (and then suspended) the Mythos-class Fable 5 model , shipped ten agent templates for financial services, announced a multi-year alliance with DXC Technology to embed Claude inside the IT infrastructure of the world's largest banks and airlines, rolled out Claude for Small Business with integrations into QuickBooks and PayPal, and published research showing that Claude Code users now average 20 hours per week on the tool . Claude Design's transformation from prototype toy to enterprise platform is the latest move in a company-wide strategy to make Claude not just an assistant people talk to, but a worker embedded in the systems where work actually happens. How design system imports make Claude Design an enterprise brand-compliance tool The headline feature in Wednesday's update is not the new drag-and-resize editor, nor the expanded list of export destinations, though both matter. The feature that signals where Anthropic is heading is the rebuilt design system import. Users can now bring one or several design systems into Claude Design from a GitHub repository, design files, or raw uploads. Once imported, Claude builds with those components, checks its output against the design system, and auto-corrects before the user ever sees the result. For larger organizations, a new admin role can approve a single standard system and lock down edits, ensuring that every asset Claude produces conforms to company guidelines. This is a meaningful departure from the tool's original positioning. In April, Claude Design was a blank canvas: give it a prompt, and it would generate something visually impressive but stylistically arbitrary. Business Insider tested it against Canva AI for a photography workshop slide deck and found that Claude Design " anticipated my needs " and "identified its own errors and corrected them without prompting." But the output reflected Claude's aesthetic judgment, not the user's brand. For an individual freelancer or a startup founder sketching ideas, that was fine. For a 10,000-person enterprise with a 200-page brand standards document, it was a non-starter. The design system import changes that equation. By ingesting a company's actual components — its buttons, typography, color tokens, spacing rules — and then validating output against them before surfacing results, Claude Design is attempting something that most human designers struggle with: consistent brand compliance at speed and scale. The admin lockdown feature, which prevents individual users from overriding the approved system, is a direct play for the enterprise procurement conversation, where "can we control what it produces?" is often the first question. Why the Claude Code round-trip could end the design-to-engineering handoff problem The second major update is the bidirectional integration between Claude Design and Claude Code . Users can now run /design-sync in Claude Code to import their local codebase's design system into Claude Design, ensuring that prototypes start from real components rather than approximations. When a design is ready to ship, it hands off to Claude Code, which picks up exactly where the designer left off — no screenshot, no rebuild. The integration works in reverse, too. From a Claude Code terminal, the /design command lets developers create, edit, and sync design projects without leaving their workflow. This matters because the handoff between design and engineering has been one of the most persistent friction points in software development for decades. Tools like Figma's Dev Mode and Zeplin have tried to bridge the gap by generating specifications and code snippets from design files, but the translation has always been lossy. A designer's prototype and an engineer's implementation inevitably diverge, creating a cycle of visual QA, redlines, and "that's not what the mockup looked like" conversations. Anthropic is betting that if the same AI system both designs and codes — and if both modes share the same underlying component library — the gap disappears. It is, in effect, arguing that the design-to-code problem was never really about better specification formats or smarter handoff tools. It was about the fact that two different humans (or two different tools) were interpreting the same intent. A single AI system that operates on both sides of the workflow doesn't need to interpret; it just continues. The timing of this integration is also significant in light of Anthropic's own research. Just yesterday, the company published an analysis of roughly 400,000 Claude Code sessions showing that domain expertise — not coding proficiency — is the primary driver of successful outcomes. Every major occupation succeeded at coding tasks at nearly the same rate as software engineers. If designers can now move fluidly between visual prototyping and code implementation through a single AI system, the research suggests they will succeed not because they learned to code, but because they deeply understand the design problems they are solving. Token consumption gets a fix, but the economics of generative design remain tight The token consumption issue that dogged Claude Design's launch was not just a user experience annoyance — it was a structural threat to the product's viability. If a $20-per-month Pro subscriber could exhaust their entire weekly allowance in a single 30-minute session, the tool was effectively inaccessible to the individual users and small teams who drove its initial viral adoption. Anthropic's response is twofold. First, Claude Design now shares usage limits with chat, Claude Cowork , and Claude Code , rather than drawing from a separate, smaller pool. This gives most users significantly more headroom. Second, the company says it has reduced the average token consumption per turn while maintaining output quality, and that error rates have dropped sharply. Whether this is enough remains an open question. The fundamental tension is architectural: generative design is inherently token-expensive. Every variation Claude produces requires the model to reason about layout, typography, color, spacing, responsiveness, and content simultaneously, then generate a complete, functional artifact. That is a fundamentally different workload than answering a question in chat, and it consumes tokens accordingly. Anthropic's efficiency improvements may push the breaking point further out, but they do not eliminate the underlying economics. For enterprise customers on Team and Enterprise plans with higher limits, this may be a non-issue. For Pro subscribers, the math is still likely to be tight. The new editor helps mitigate this somewhat by giving users direct control over individual elements — drag, resize, and align — without burning a model turn for every small adjustment. Hundreds of stability fixes also mean fewer wasted turns on errors and regenerations, which were a significant source of token drain in the original release. These are not glamorous improvements, but they are the kind of grind work that separates a research preview from a daily-use tool. Nine new export partners position Claude Design as a creative hub, not a destination The update's third pillar is an expanded set of export destinations. Claude Design now sends work to Adobe , Base44 , Canva , Gamma , Lovable , Miro , Replit , Vercel , and Wix , in addition to PDF and PowerPoint. The breadth of this list reveals a deliberate positioning strategy: Anthropic is building Claude Design not as a place where work is finished, but as the place where it begins. The partner quotes tell the story. Replit's president Michele Catasta frames the integration as meeting "builders wherever ideas begin." Canva's Anwar Haneef describes the flow from Claude Design as turning "a first draft" into "a finished asset — kept on-brand, personalized for the moment." Vercel's Andrew Qu talks about pushing a concept "straight to Vercel to ship." In each case, Claude Design is the origin point, and the partner tool is where polish, collaboration, and deployment happen. This hub-and-spoke model also serves as a defensive moat against the open-source alternative that has emerged with surprising speed. Open Design , a community-built project tracked by Augment Code , reached 57,400 GitHub stars and 310 contributors in just eight weeks after Claude Design's launch. It offers local-first operation, model flexibility supporting 16 different coding agents, and 259 skills with 142 design systems — all without cloud lock-in. Augment Code's Paula Hingel noted that for "teams that need to self-host, use their own API keys, or swap models, Open Design is currently the only local-first option with this level of skill and design system coverage." Anthropic's answer to this competitive pressure is not to match Open Design on self-hosting or model flexibility — those are philosophical concessions the company is unlikely to make. Instead, it is building an integration ecosystem that open-source projects cannot easily replicate. A native Adobe Express connector, a verified Canva export pipeline, a first-party Vercel deployment path — these are partnerships, not features, and they require business relationships that community projects cannot forge at the same pace. Claude Design fits into Anthropic's broader push to embed AI across the entire enterprise stack To understand why Claude Design's evolution matters, it helps to zoom out. Anthropic is building a product surface that now spans creative work ( Design ), code ( Code ), knowledge work ( Cowork ), and enterprise operations ( Managed Agents ) — all unified by the same underlying models and, increasingly, by shared context that carries across tools. The trajectory of the past quarter makes the pattern unmistakable. In May, Anthropic launched Claude for Small Business with connectors to QuickBooks, PayPal, and HubSpot, putting Claude inside the tools that small business owners already use for payroll, invoicing, and marketing. The same month, the company released ten agent templates for financial services covering everything from pitchbook creation to KYC screening, with connectors to FactSet, S&P Capital IQ, and Morningstar. Claude Opus 4.8 shipped on May 28 with a "dynamic workflows" feature enabling hundreds of parallel sub-agents in a single Claude Code session. Then came the Fable 5 and Mythos 5 launch on June 9, followed almost immediately by a US government export control directive that suspended access to both. DXC Technology announced a multi-year alliance to train tens of thousands of Claude-certified engineers to embed Claude inside the systems it operates for major banks, airlines, and insurers. The design system you import into Claude Design is the same component library that Claude Code uses to implement. The financial model you build in Claude for Excel can flow into a pitchbook created in Claude Design and exported to PowerPoint. The brand assets a small business owner creates through Claude Design can be pushed directly to Canva for team collaboration. This is not a chatbot strategy. It is a platform strategy, and the Claude Design update — with its design system imports, code round-trips, and export ecosystem — is one of the clearest expressions of it yet. Anthropic also published an engineering deep-dive last month detailing how it contains Claude across products using sandboxes, virtual machines, and egress controls — infrastructure that becomes more critical as tools like Claude Design gain access to proprietary design systems and brand assets. The containment architecture reveals both the ambition and the risk: the more deeply Claude embeds into enterprise workflows, the higher the stakes when something goes wrong, and the more sophisticated the security envelope must become. Three questions will determine whether Wednesday's update delivers on its ambitions. First, whether the token economics actually work for the broadest user base — shared limits and efficiency gains help, but generative design remains expensive. Second, whether the design system import proves robust enough for real enterprise use, because ingesting a GitHub repository of React components and faithfully using them across dozens of design variations is a genuinely hard technical problem. And third, whether the Claude Code round-trip actually eliminates the design-engineering gap or merely shifts it. Claude Design launched two months ago as a thing people tried once and marveled at. Anthropic is now trying to make it a thing people use every day — and more than that, a thing their entire team trusts to stay on brand while they do. In the AI industry, the distance between a viral demo and an indispensable tool has swallowed more products than it has produced. Anthropic just bet that design systems, not just design prompts, are the bridge across.

HPE is all in on AI, according to the message coming from CEO Antonio Neri. AI agents are now running alongside end users in enterprise infrastructure, changing how workloads move across networks and what compute and storage must deliver. At HPE Discover 2026 in Las Vegas this week, Neri used the opening keynote to detail the company’s response across its full stack. Key announcements include: Networking : HPE extended AI connectivity from GPU racks to the inference edge with new QFX switches, the PTX 12,000 routing platform for data center interconnect, the SRX 4700 quantum-safe firewall, and the MX 301 edge router, while Marvis Actions comes to Aruba Central and Aruba CX switching to HPE Mist. Compute: Private Cloud AI now scales to 256 GPUs with multi-node inference across three AI Factory tiers, backed by the new ProLiant DL 394 Gen 12 built for agentic workloads. Storage: The Alletra MPX 10,000 becomes the Private Cloud AI storage layer, unifying file and object storage on a single architecture with native MCP support and Nvidia Certified Storage validation. Agentic operations: Private Cloud AI gains agentic governance controls including zero-code agent registration across any framework and a new three-tier identity model, backed by Nvidia Open Shell for isolated policy-enforced agent runtimes, NeMo Cloud for governed workflow blueprints, and Zerto for clean-state rollback when agents make errors. Cloud: HPE CloudOps consolidates virtualization, data protection and cloud management into a single hybrid operating layer, with the Unleash AI program now covering more than 60 validated partners. “Today, we are witnessing one of the largest technology platform shifts in history,” Neri said during the keynote. “Workloads and applications are moving from being driven by end users [to] now being driven by both end users and AI agents.” The network comes first For HPE, the network is the AI foundation. “Every byte, every token, every decision, all of it crosses the network,” Neri said. Much of Neri’s keynote discussion about networking revolved around the expansion and integration of Juniper Networks as part of the broader HPE portfolio. HPE structured its portfolio across four layers: scale-up within a rack, scale-out across GPU clusters, data center interconnect, and edge inference routing. New QFX switches address the first two layers, while the PTX 12,000 handles data center interconnect with 800G routing, the SRX 4700 delivers quantum-safe firewall throughput at 1.44 Tbps in a single rack unit, and the MX 301 brings the MX platform to the inference edge on Juniper’s sixth-generation Trio silicon. Fundamentally, it’s about speed and what that means in the AI era. Neri put the cost of latency at training scale in plain terms: “Multiply[ing] a small delay across hundreds of thousands of GPUs over weeks of training in your network can mean the difference between training a new model in 90 days or 30 days,” he said. “It is the difference between chasing a breakthrough or making one.” HPE scales compute for the agentic era While networking connects systems, those compute systems are still needed and they are being organized and optimized for AI. HPE organizes its compute portfolio into three AI Factory tiers for enterprise, service provider, and sovereign deployments. “AI today is about moving faster from ambition to outcome, accelerating time to token, reducing execution risk, and ensuring your environments are ready to perform from day one,” Neri said. The new ProLiant DL 394 Gen 12 is built for agentic AI and long-context workloads. At the AI Factory at Scale tier, new configurations deliver AI training with one-quarter the GPUs required by the prior Blackwell-generation platform and inference at one-tenth the cost per million tokens, Neri said. Private Cloud AI configurations now scale to 256 GPUs with multi-node inference. A unified gateway provides a single API for frontier and open-source model access. Shared cache reduces the cost per first token. “Private cloud AI can now serve larger models across multiple systems with multi node inference, so capacity grows with the math,” Neri said. Storage: Making data ready for AI Agents are only as capable as the data behind them. On the storage front, the Alletra MPX 10,000 is now the storage layer for Private Cloud AI, unifying file and object storage on a single architecture. It adds real-time metadata enrichment and native MCP support, enabling agents to retrieve data across structured and unstructured sources. HPE cited 7 to 12 times faster time to value compared to custom-built environments. “Your AI agents are only as smart as the data you use to train them,” Neri said. “Traditionally, that data required custom preparation for every use case and months of building the right AI data pipelines, but not anymore.” Toward an agentic enterprise Running on top of all that networking, compute and storage gear are AI agents. That’s another area that HPE is looking to help. “Agents now reason across data, applications, models, and workflows. They help you make decisions, automate processes, and are increasingly taking action on your behalf,” Neri said. Agents are proliferating across enterprises, often in the hands of developers and small teams outside formal IT oversight, creating governance and scale challenges that traditional IT management was not built to handle. “Agentic AI demands a new set of enterprise requirements,” Neri said. HPE’s answer is a governed agent layer built into Private Cloud AI. Enterprises can register agents built in any framework, applying security controls on API calls, identity, and encryption with zero code changes required. A three-tier identity model verifies the user, governs the agent, and requires human approval for sensitive actions. Power, research and what comes next With all the promise of AI and all the infrastructure that goes with it, there is a key constraint that Neri warned about, and that’s power. “Every model, every workload, every agent depends on power, because at its core, an AI factory is doing one thing: turning electrons into tokens,” he said. He noted that the U.S faces a 19 gigawatt power gap by 2028, with data centers projected to account for nearly half of US electricity demand through 2031. “As AI scales, the future will not be defined by compute alone,” Neri said. “It will be defined by how efficiently we can power it, cool it, and connect it.”

Paper link Before releasing a new model, labs need to understand not just what it can do, but how it is likely to behave in real-world use, including where it might introduce new risks. This becomes even more important as capabilities increase. As part of our pre-deployment safety review, we leverage targeted evaluations, red-teaming, and other checks to understand model behavior. We’ve now started using a method for simulating model deployments before they happen, which adds a complementary signal: a deployment-like preview of how a candidate model may behave before it reaches users. Deployment Simulation is a method for simulating a future deployment before it happens. We do so by replaying previous conversations in a privacy-preserving manner with a new candidate model. By doing so, we can study how the new model responds in realistic contexts before release, including whether new undesired behaviors emerge and how often they may appear. In our GPT-5.4 study, these forecasts were informative. For categories whose production rates changed by at least 1.5x, deployment simulation predicted the direction of change 92% of the time, compared with 54% for a baseline built from challenging prompts. Simulated deployments also looked much closer to real production traffic on evaluation-awareness measures: traditional evals often visibly have stage lights; production prefixes mostly do not. The hardest case is agentic tool use, where realistic behavior depends on external state: filesystems, connectors, syscalls, network services, and prior tool results. We address this by using another model to simulate tool responses, with access to the original trajectory and time-matched codebase where possible. This is not a replacement for traditional evals, but it is a useful complement: safety evals should be forecasts with post-release scorecards, not just obstacle courses. We have already used insights from Deployment Simulation during model development to identify blind spots in traditional evaluations and inform mitigations and deployment decisions. As we make the pipeline easier to run, we expect it to play a larger role in the future model development process. Discuss

- Introducing eve, an open-source agent framework
eve is now available in public preview. eve is an open-source framework for building, running, and scaling agents. An agent is just a directory of files, and production comes built in: Durable execution Sandboxed compute Human-in-the-loop approvals Subagents Evals The smallest agent that runs is just two files, a model and a set of instructions. Add a tool, skill, channel, or schedule by adding a file. eve picks them up at build time and wires them in for you, so there's no boilerplate to register them. You can scaffold and start a new agent with a single command. It installs the dependencies, scaffolds the project, and starts a dev server, so you have an agent running locally in under a minute. Or you can let your coding agent set it up for you. Give it this prompt: And because an eve agent is an ordinary Vercel project, vercel deploy ships it to production unchanged, exactly as it ran on your machine. eve is the framework that Vercel builds and runs its own agents on. For the full tour, read the announcement or the documentation , and you can follow development in the open over at github.com/vercel/eve . Read more
