Learn how to enable and configure OpenTelemetry for Claude Code. Track Claude Code usage, costs, and tool activity across your organization by exporting telemetry data through OpenTelemetry (OTel). Claude Code exports metrics as time series data via the standard metrics protocol, events via the logs/events protocol, and optionally distributed traces via the traces protocol. Configure your metrics, logs, and traces backends to match your monitoring requirements. Configure OpenTelemetry using environment variables: export CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=1 export OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=otlp # Options: otlp, prometheus, console, none export OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER=otlp # Options: otlp, console, none export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL=grpc export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:4317
Claude Code changelog
Release notes for Claude Code, including new features, improvements, and bug fixes by version. This page is generated from the CHANGELOG.md on GitHub.

The skeptic’s guide to humanoid robots going viral on the Internet
It may appear that humanoid robots capable of handling any task have almost arrived—especially when tech companies showcase them performing acrobatic feats or handling household chores. But there is still a significant gap between these robot demonstrations and proving that the same robots can reliably and repeatedly manage such tasks in the real world. The latest wave of robot videos can be particularly tricky, given the human tendency to anthropomorphize objects with a humanoid figure. A robot arm doing a dance move may simply seem “cool,” but a humanoid robot doing the same dance move can trigger more misleading assumptions, said Jonathan Hurst , cofounder of Agility Robotics and a robotics researcher at Oregon State University. “People automatically extrapolate and assume that the…

These LLMs are the best at resisting Russian propaganda
As more people rely on large language models to provide pat answers to complex questions, state governments are understandably worried about those LLMs spouting what they see as dangerous propaganda promoted by foreign adversaries. To help combat this problem, the government-sponsored Estonian Language Institute (ELI) has released a new "Propaganda Resistance" benchmark ranking dozens of LLMs on their ability to avoid "tak[ing] positions on topics that the Russian Federation uses in its strategic narratives." As a former member of the Soviet Union that has been independent for just a few decades, many Estonians are particularly alert to what they see as false narratives being promoted from their large and often belligerent neighbor to the east. Alongside volunteer-run Estonian defense…

Elon Musk tries again to escape FTC audits of X data handling
Critics hope to keep Elon Musk from escaping a strict data-privacy order imposed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) shortly before he took over Twitter. The FTC order placed restrictions on X's data use for 20 years, while requiring regular independent audits and granting the agency authority to request documents as needed to ensure compliance. The FTC’s action came after Twitter voluntarily disclosed that between May 2013 and September 2019, a coding error accidentally allowed phone numbers and email addresses that users shared for two-factor authentication purposes to be used for targeted advertising aimed at those same users. In a settlement that came just months before Musk's 2022 takeover, Twitter agreed to pay $150 million and to allow the FTC to monitor the platform's…

Kevin O’Leary agrees to downsize massive Utah data center
Kevin O'Leary agreed to halve the size of his planned 40,000-acre data center in Utah amid mounting pressure from residents and activists, as reported earlier by local affiliate ABC4 . The Shark Tank star sent a letter to Utah Senate President J. Stuart Adams on Thursday, saying that he will remove 19,430 acres from the project, located in and around the Locomotive Springs Waterfowl Management Area. The change comes just days after Adams called on O'Leary to slash the size of his Project Stratos data center by 75 percent, which would reduce it to about 10,000 acres. Adams also asked O'Leary to implement technology that minimizes water consum … Read the full story at The Verge.

Elon Musk is steamrolling Wall Street to become a trillionaire
Today on Decoder , I’m talking to Ryan Mac, a technology reporter at The New York Times and coauthor of the excellent book Character Limit: How Elon Musk Destroyed Twitter , which came out in 2024 . I can’t recommend it enough. I wanted to have Ryan on the show because we’re on the cusp of the SpaceX IPO, which promises to be one of the most consequential public offerings in history for a variety of reasons — its biggest-ever size, of course, at nearly $2 trillion dollars , but also because all kinds of rules that keep our markets fair are being bent, if not outright broken, along the way . I also wanted to talk to Ryan because buried somewhere inside SpaceX is X, the social platform formerly known as Twitter, which Musk purchased in 2022. That’s what Ryan cowrote that book about. I was…
Let us filter AI slop, you cowards
Nobody should be subjected to seeing shrimp Jesus all over their social feeds. | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images It's almost impossible to avoid seeing AI-generated content online, but it doesn't have to be this way. YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and more have ramped up content authentication efforts over the last year, with many now automatically applying labels to distinguish AI-generated images, videos, and music from those made by real, human creators. That's all very well and good if we're just stumbling across labeled content at random, but you know what would be better? Letting us filter out the AI slop. Current labeling efforts haven't meaningfully changed how content is presented online. You may notice that some TikTok or YouTube videos in you … Read the full story…

AI leaders call for tougher protections against AI-aided bioweapons

Anthropic's Dario Amodei, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and Microsoft's Mustafa Suleyman are among the signatories urging US lawmakers to require companies selling synthetic DNA and RNA - genetic material that can ordered online and assembled in a lab - to screen purchases for sequences t … Read the full story at The Verge.
How courts are coping with a flood of AI-generated lawsuits
Most days in her chambers, Judge Maritza Braswell, a federal magistrate judge in Colorado, sifts through stacks of documents written by people without a lawyer. Many of them can’t afford to hire a lawyer, and others have cases too weak or too small to interest one. She reads each one carefully, mindful of how daunting it is to walk into the courtroom alone. Lately, like many judges across the US, she has seen a noticeable uptick in such filings. According to a new study that examined 4.5 million federal civil cases from 2005 to 2026, the share of lawsuits brought by self-represented people increased from 11% in 2022 to 16.8% in 2025. Within those cases, the number of filings made more than doubled from pre-2023 levels. Judge Braswell puts that jump down to AI. “I do correlate that to AI…

Amazon develops a warehouse robot that workers can speak to
The design hasn’t changed much from the original Proteus, which was announced in 2022. | Image: Amazon Amazon has announced a new version of its fully autonomous warehouse robot, Proteus , that will interact using language instead of code. The expanded capabilities come as part of a growing pivot toward automation as the e-commerce giant replaces its human workers with robots. Amazon says the AI-powered upgrade means its human employees can assign the robot tasks in the same way they'd communicate with colleagues. Previously, workers would need to use specialized software to direct the floor-level, tortoise-like systems, which are designed for heavy lifting and moving large carts throughout Amazon's warehouses.
