Anthropic Doubles Claude Code Rate Limits, Leases All of SpaceX's Colossus 1

Anthropic doubled Claude Code's 5-hour rate limits and removed peak-hour throttling for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans, then disclosed the source of the new capacity: a lease on the entire Colossus 1 data center — 300 MW and ~220,000 NVIDIA GPUs in Memphis — that SpaceX absorbed when it took over xAI.

Unsloth × NVIDIA Cut LLM Fine-Tuning ~25% — Three Glue-Code Wins on Blackwell

Daniel & Michael Han at Unsloth, in collaboration with NVIDIA, published a joint guide quantifying three glue-code optimizations that combine for ~25% faster LLM training on B200 Blackwell hardware. The wins target overhead around the main kernels — caching packed-sequence metadata, double-buffered gradient checkpoint reloads, and a cheaper GPT-OSS MoE router using argsort + bincount. All three are merged via public PRs.

Luma Labs Opens Uni-1.1 API for Production — Image, Not Video, and #1 ELO Comes With a Caveat

Luma Labs has shipped the Uni-1.1 API for production — an image-generation model (not video) with two REST endpoints, Python and JavaScript SDKs, and support for up to nine reference images per call. The widely-cited '#1 Human Preference ELO' is from Luma's own internal pairwise evaluation; on pure text-to-image Luma reports #2 behind Google Nano Banana. Pricing: ~$0.09 per 2K image, 10–30% below Nano Banana 2 / Pro.
