Claude Joins Your Slack as a Coworker, Meta’s $299 AI Glasses Launch, AI Gets a Biology Language

Today we’re covering the biggest AI stories of June 24th, 2026. Anthropic launched Claude Tag — bringing the same agentic capabilities from Claude Code and Cowork directly into Slack, letting entire teams tag Claude like a coworker to handle tasks asynchronously, build context across channels and codebases over time, and even use ambient mode to follow up on conversations that have gone quiet — with Andrej Karpathy calling it the third major redesign of how people interact with AI. Meta launched Meta Glasses, a new $299 line of AI smart glasses built with EssilorLuxottica and powered by Muse Spark, spanning 26 styles including a $399 Kylie Jenner edition with a custom chime and her voice for the AI — a two-tier strategy that pairs Ray-Ban for fashion credibility and Meta Glasses for price accessibility. Plus, Stanford professor Brian Hie released Proto, an open framework that lets researchers compose over 120 AI biology models into unified pipelines for the first time — and today’s community workflow comes from Tricia in New Hampshire, a special education teacher with 30 years of experience who uses AI to build personalized lessons, analyze student data, and present progress to parents in ways that used to take her hours and now take minutes.
