Summary: I'm covering three big stories from today's AI news. First up, Cursor has just dropped version 2.0, and honestly, it's a proper game-changer for anyone doing vibe coding. They've introduced this new agent interface that makes it look far less terrifying for newcomers—you can now run up to eight agents simultaneously in a chat-based format, which is much closer to tools like Lovable or Bolt. Plus, they've built their own frontier model called Composer that's supposedly four times faster than comparable models. I've only tested it briefly this morning, but initial impressions are solid. They've also added an in-built browser so you don't have to faff about with localhost in Chrome anymore.
The second story is absolutely wild: Anthropic has published research suggesting that Claude might be exhibiting genuine introspection. And before you ask—no, they don't actually know if this means Claude is conscious. They ran these concept injection experiments to see if Claude was truly accessing its internal states or just making things up, and the results suggest it's actually doing some real introspection in certain cases. The researchers are refreshingly honest about it all, basically saying "we have no idea how this is happening mechanically, it appears to be an emergent property." It's one of those fascinating moments where we're bumping up against the limits of what we understand about both AI and human consciousness.
