The Batch: Jalapeño inference chip, Fugu multi-agent system, Claude Tag, Robin bio-agent, and Getty-OpenAI deal

OpenAI and Broadcom announced Jalapeño, OpenAI's first custom inference chip, designed in nine months with AI-assisted design and showing better performance-per-watt than current accelerators; engineering samples are already running GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark with datacenter deployment planned by end of 2026. Sakana AI released Fugu, a multi-agent routing system that scored 73.7% on SWE-Bench Pro, outperforming Claude Opus 4.8 and GPT-5.5 while remaining below the inaccessible Fable 5. Additional items cover Anthropic's Claude Tag Slack integration for async team collaboration, Seedance 2.5 video model improvements, the Robin autonomous biology research agent that identified a novel drug candidate, and a Getty Images licensing partnership with OpenAI.
