Four AI platforms to start the week. Canva launches Canva Craft, its first in-house image model, trained on millions of design templates and debuting fourth on DesignArena. Replit's new Monitoring Agent watches your live app and fixes problems on its own. Block unveils Dessa, a voice model trained only on human conversation audio, no text, that listens while it talks and runs on a MacBook. And Cuttable raises A$20M for an AI ad platform that builds, publishes and learns from Meta ads, while Picsart launches Marketing Studio for Google Ads. Plus quick hits: Higgsfield's link-to-ad tool, Webflow + Gemini, Krea 3, Luma adds Kling 4.0 and Claude Motion, Meta Muse passes 10M users, Sweden's government blocks ChatGPT and Claude on staff computers, the Agentic AI Foundation, and the Mistral Large 4 open-weights deadline.
