Hello There!

Microsoft is testing AI in its Photos app to automatically sort clutter like receipts and screenshots, while Meta introduced a new “Vibes” feed dedicated to remixable AI-generated videos. A study suggests nearly a million jobs in London could be reshaped by automation, hitting roles heavy on repetition, and Anthropic is gearing up for a massive global hiring spree as it pushes deeper into the AI race.

AI is changing how we organize, create, work, and grow.

Microsoft is adding AI to its Photos app that will automatically sort messy images into clear folders. The tool groups screenshots, receipts, ID documents, and handwritten notes. It starts with Windows 11 Insiders on Copilot+ PCs and promises faster ways to find what matters in big photo libraries.

📌The Download

  • The rollout begins with Windows 11 Insider users, and it will gradually reach all Copilot+ PCs. The Photos app needs version 2025.11090.25001.0 or newer. Microsoft says the AI works on-device, which means pictures stay private. It does not rely on cloud processing, but it does need a PC with an NPU that can handle at least 40 TOPS.

  • The feature creates a new “Categories” section in the Photos navigation bar. Right now, there are only 4 groups: receipts, screenshots, ID documents, and handwritten notes. Even if the text is in another language, such as a Hungarian passport, the system can still recognize and place it in the right folder.

  • Microsoft also lets users move photos between groups and give feedback when the AI makes mistakes. Alongside this feature, the company is expanding its Super Resolution tool beyond Qualcomm Snapdragon to AMD and Intel Copilot+ PCs. Some privacy advocates question whether metadata or other data could be collected, but Microsoft has not answered those concerns yet.

💡What This Means for You

AI is now shaping how your personal photos are managed. If you depend on your computer for receipts, notes, or IDs, the app may soon organize them for you automatically. This saves time, but it also raises new questions about privacy. Your gallery is no longer fully in your hands.

Meta has launched Vibes, a new feed filled with short AI videos. You can watch playful clips, read the exact prompts that made them, and instantly remix them with your own style. You can also share them on Instagram and Facebook. Meta wants to make AI videos part of your daily scroll.

📌The Download

  • Meta has replaced its old Discover feed with Vibes on the Meta AI app and the website meta.ai. Instead of browsing text prompts, you now see a constant stream of AI videos made by creators and communities. Each video shows the original prompt, and you can remix it with new visuals, music, or style.

  • The feature is already rolling out in 40+ countries, but not in the UK. You can post directly on Vibes or cross-share your clip to Instagram Reels and Facebook Stories. When someone watches your video on Instagram, they can tap once and remix it in the Meta AI app. This turns every viewer into a possible creator.

  • Early clips range from kittens dressed as bakers to Egyptian princess selfies. The Guardian highlighted how strange and fun the content can look. Business Insider and TechCrunch criticized it as “AI slop” because many clips are random and low quality. Meta insists Vibes is about sparking creativity, using partners like Midjourney and Black Forest to expand its AI tools, and personalizing feeds based on what you like, share, and remix.

💡What This Means for You

Vibes gives you a new way to explore how AI shapes creativity. You can watch strange, funny, or artistic clips and see the exact words that made them. You can remix these ideas with a single tap and share your own twist. It is an easy way to learn, play, and spark imagination.

Picture your job changing because of AI. That is what new research shows for London where nearly 1M jobs could be reshaped. Telemarketers, bookkeepers, and data entry workers may see big changes. People are asking how much of their work will stay with them and how much will shift to AI.

📌The Download

  • BBC research highlights that about 200K telemarketers, 150K bookkeepers, and 95K data entry workers in London could see their tasks altered by AI. These roles depend on repetition and strict rules which AI now handles very well. However many of these jobs may not disappear but will turn into mixed human plus AI roles.

  • The IPPR think tank warns that as many as 8M jobs across the UK could be touched by AI. Their analysis describes 2 stages. In the first stage about 11% of all tasks are already open to AI. In the second stage almost 60% of tasks could be automated. Entry level and office support jobs are the most exposed. Women and younger people face higher risk since they work in many of these roles.

  • Surveys show rising concern in London. Nearly 50% of employees in the city believe AI will affect their job within the next 12 months. More than 60% expect change within 3 to 5 years. At the same time companies are already planning cuts. BT’s CEO has warned AI could cut more jobs than the 55K already set for removal by 2030.

💡What This Means for You

AI is moving into the workplace faster than many expected. If your role includes routine tasks you should prepare now. The safest path is to grow skills AI cannot copy like problem solving, creativity, and leadership. When machines take over tasks humans need to move up.

Anthropic is racing ahead. The $183B AI startup behind Claude will triple its global workforce and grow its applied AI team 5 times in 2025. In only 2 years, its customer base jumped from less than 1K to more than 300K. This global hiring spree shows how quickly Claude is becoming everywhere.

📌The Download

  • TToday almost 80% of Claude’s use comes from outside the US. South Korea, Singapore and Australia already have higher use per person than the US. To serve this demand, Anthropic will open its first Asian office in Tokyo led by Hidetoshi Tojo who earlier worked at Google and Microsoft. Europe will see 100+ new hires across Dublin, London and Zurich.

  • Revenue growth has been explosive. In early 2024, Anthropic reported $87M in yearly run rate revenue. By August 2025, it crossed $5B. Governments and global industries now use Claude for coding, citizen services and business tasks. In India Claude already makes up 7.2% of use, and more than half of this is for coding.

  • This expansion will be guided by Chris Ciauri who is the International Managing Director. Anthropic is also recruiting country leads for India, Australia, New Zealand, Korea and Singapore. At the same time, Microsoft has added Claude to Copilot which puts it in direct competition with OpenAI’s ChatGPT inside everyday work tools.

💡What This Means for You

AI is spreading fast across countries, companies and daily tools. Claude will soon be inside Microsoft Copilot and present in more regions. This means new ways to work faster and smarter. The real choice is clear. Do you adapt to it now or let your competitors move ahead first.

BOOK OF THE DAY

Ben Horowitz, co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz and a veteran Silicon Valley entrepreneur, offers brutally honest insights on building and running a startup when there are no easy answers. This book is not about theory; it’s about surviving the toughest challenges leaders face in real life.

  • The Hardest Problems Have No Easy Answers - Running a company means facing challenges with no playbook, layoffs, cash crunches, failed products, and leadership dilemmas. Horowitz emphasizes making tough, often painful decisions while staying true to values.

  • Leadership Under Pressure - Great CEOs are not born, they are made in the trenches. The book shows how leaders can stay calm, make bold decisions, and keep teams motivated even when everything is falling apart.

  • Building a Resilient Culture - Culture isn’t just perks or slogans, it’s how people behave under pressure. Horowitz stresses honesty, accountability, and leading by example to build trust and resilience.

💡 Why you can’t ignore this:

Startups and businesses often glorify success stories, but Horowitz exposes the brutal reality: success is forged through hardship. Leaders who learn to navigate chaos, make unpopular but necessary choices, and communicate with raw honesty are the ones who build enduring companies.
