Google's Gemini 4 Carbon targets coding and cybersecurity, scoring 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro and 71.0% on CWE-bench, but access is restricted to the Fairwind Program with pricing at $2/$10 per million tokens. Anthropic's Claude Duet, built on Claude Opus 5.5, is a proactive assistant in waitlist preview for US Pro and Max subscribers. OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Terra cuts API pricing 50% versus prior Terra and Sol models while scoring 50.3% on Terminal-Bench 4.0. Moonshot's Kimi K3.1 Pro offers a one-million-token context window, with full weights promised by 4 November. Mistral released Large 4 open weights under its Ecosystem Open-Weight License. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What pricing does Anthropic's Claude Duet use and who can access it currently? Claude Duet is in a research preview available via waitlist, initially limited to US Pro and Max subscribers, with apps on iOS and Android plus access on claude.ai. It shares the subscriber's existing Claude usage limits, and background checks it runs count toward those same usage limits. It is built around Claude Opus 5.5. _Teams weighing proactive AI assistants track rollout and pricing details like these on daily.dev._ ### How much cheaper is GPT-6.1 Terra than previous OpenAI models for computer-use tasks? GPT-6.1 Terra's standard API pricing is 50% lower than GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol, at $1 per million input tokens, $0.05 per million cached input tokens, and $5 per million output tokens. It also scored 50.3% on Terminal-Bench 4.0 at maximum reasoning effort, versus 21.5% for GPT-5.6 Terra. _Developers repricing automation workflows compare model cost benchmarks like this on daily.dev._ ### What context window and license does Mistral Large 4 ship with? Mistral Large 4, also called Le Chonk, is a roughly trillion-parameter model with a one-million-token context window, accepting text and images. Official checkpoints include FP8 and NVFP4 formats, with serving support across Transformers, vLLM, and llama.cpp, released under the Mistral Ecosystem Open-Weight License, which places conditions on model-as-a-service offerings. _Teams planning self-hosted LLM deployments weigh licensing and checkpoint details like these on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Weekly Dose \#12 - Claude Opus 5, Gemini 3.6 and the New Agent Stack](https://daily.dev/posts/weekly-dose-12---claude-opus-5-gemini-3-6-and-the-new-agent-stack-x62q7y7bf) · Machine Learning Pills · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Anthropic’s New Claude Opus 4.5 Reclaims the Coding Crown](https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-s-new-claude-opus-4-5-reclaims-the-coding-crown-swsygmrln) · The New Stack · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [This week in AI updates: Claude Sonnet 4.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and more \(February 20, 2026\)](https://daily.dev/posts/this-week-in-ai-updates-claude-sonnet-4-6-gemini-3-1-pro-and-more-february-20-2026--u1dfmxtin) · SD Times · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#ai-agents](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-agents), [#llm](https://daily.dev/tags/llm), [#claude](https://daily.dev/tags/claude), [#google-gemini](https://daily.dev/tags/google-gemini), [#mistral-ai](https://daily.dev/tags/mistral-ai) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/weekly-dose-24---claude-duet-arrives-as-google-raises-the-coding-bar-x4xzqiest) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Weekly Dose #24 - Claude Duet Arrives as Google Raises the Coding Bar","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/weekly-dose-24---claude-duet-arrives-as-google-raises-the-coding-bar-x4xzqiest","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/weekly-dose-24---claude-duet-arrives-as-google-raises-the-coding-bar-x4xzqiest"},"datePublished":"2026-10-30T16:30:47.842Z","dateModified":"2026-10-30T16:54:04.106Z","description":"Five AI model releases from 18 to 30 October reshape coding, agent, and deployment choices for builders.
