Beating AI News: Factory has released Droid 1.0, a coding agent runtime framework, introducing procedural tool calling (Code Mode) as its default execution method. The feature allows AI to first write JavaScript scripts, then sequentially call tools hundreds of times via the scripts, eliminating the need to re-request the large language model every few steps, thus reducing model call frequency and token consumption. For example, migrating and verifying 151 Linear tickets required 36 model calls and 3.1 million input tokens via the traditional approach; with Code Mode, only 2 calls and around 61,000 tokens were needed, a ~98% drop in input tokens. In broader tests, task costs for Claude Opus 5.5 saw a ~15% reduction. Factory also optimized cross-model tool calling strategies, caching, and task execution mechanisms. In its official Terminal-Bench 4 self-test, using the same GPT-6.1 Sol model, Droid scored 3.5 points higher than Codex, with a 12% lower successful task cost, though execution time increased by 10%. It’s worth noting that Code Mode is not a new technology: Cloudflare and Anthropic previously unveiled similar solutions, while Pi, OpenCode 2.0, and DeepSeek Harness also support the feature.

According to data from BIT Stock Platform, Intel fell more than 23% in U.S. pre-market trading. The company’s fourth-quarter performance guidance was far below market expectations, weighed down by factors including an explosion at its Israeli factory, weak PC demand, and limited supply of AI chips. Amazon dropped over 7%. The company’s third-quarter net sales stood at $201.9 billion, missing market forecasts; its earnings per share (EPS) declined 3% year-on-year to $1.89. The storage sector was broadly lower in pre-market trading, with SK Hynix down more than 6% and SanDisk down over 3%.

The Onchain Foundation announced that it has temporarily suspended its LSK token repurchase program amid the Binance security incident, and expects to resume the plan next week after the situation becomes clearer.

A separate announcement will be released once the repurchase program restarts.

ECB’s Zigmans said the European Central Bank (ECB) could decide to raise interest rates as soon as its next policy meeting, adding that gradual monetary policy tightening is appropriate. Zigmans noted the energy shock has lasted longer than expected, with the euro area now entering the adverse scenario outlined in the ECB’s latest projections. Sustained energy price rises have increased the risk of further inflation acceleration while dampening economic growth prospects. Rising bond yields and falling stock prices reflect a further tightening of financial conditions. Against this backdrop, the ECB’s gradual interest rate hike strategy is the right direction, helping preserve flexibility for future policy decisions. Zigmans emphasized the ECB remains committed to stabilizing inflation at 2% over the medium term, and will make interest rate decisions based on future data, inflation expectations and the risk environment. He also noted prolonged conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine could pose downside risks to economic growth. Croatia’s central bank projects the country’s economic growth this year at around 2.5%, roughly three times the average rate of the rest of the euro area. (Jinshi)
