GPT-6 Cyber is OpenAI's security model, and it's the first thing they've rated Critical for cyber capability, which is their own top band and a step up from the High that GPT-5.6 Cyber carried. Pointed at the Linux kernel, it built working privilege escalation exploits for 948 separate vulnerabilities, against 166 for GPT-5.6 Sol on the same tooling. It also found 81 unknown high-severity flaws in Firefox that Mozilla has started patching, and nobody can simply sign up for any of it, with access running through a vetted program that wants an application, identity checks and MFA before it lets anyone near the thing.

seam turns the notch on your MacBook into something closer to the Dynamic Island, so music, a focus timer, the calendar and the volume all sit up there, and you can hold a key and dictate into any app with the voice model running on your own Mac and nothing leaving it. It'll also tell you when Claude Code has finished. A good few of us now spend half the afternoon waiting on an agent to stop "combobulating," whatever that means, so I get why that one made the list, and it's $19.90 once for two Macs with a 48-hour trial that never asks for a card.

Duly is an iPhone app where you tap an orb and ramble at it, and what comes out the other side is sorted into reminders, lists, ideas and notes, so "call mom at 6, buy milk" lands as one reminder and one grocery item. Corrections go the same way, so you say you already bought the lemons and it crosses them off. You can ask it things as well, like what you still need from the store or what you spent this week, and the answer turns up above the orb where you can keep it as a note, with the daily sorting free and iCloud sync behind a Pro tier.
