Introduction - the shape of AI progress in late 2025AI in 2025 is not a single story it's multiple, overlapping narratives. We are watching 1 enormous capital and celebrity leadership enter the field, 2 rapid maturation of domain-specific models for weather and industrial supply chains, 3 big-tech productization of agentic and canvas experiences inside search and productivity, and 4 continual platform updates that push foundation models closer to end users via desktop and edge software. Today's five stories - Project Prometheus, WeatherNext 2, Google Search's agentic Plans and travel Canvas, the Windows 11 Insider build, and Nuclearn's Parts AI - are emblematic: some are headline-grabbing moves leadership and fundraising, others are steady engineering progress that quietly change how decisions are made in weather forecasting and nuclear supply chains. Together they map where AI value is concentrating: applied, safety-aware, and tightly integrated into products .
