AIWarner Music Group and Stability AI announced a collaboration to build professional-grade, ethically trained AI tools for artists, songwriters, and producers. The companies will work directly with artists to shape tools that enhance the creative process while protecting creators' rights and revenue opportunities. Stability AI's Stable Audio models, trained exclusively on licensed data, are cited as the basis for its commercially safe generative audio offerings.

AIAman Sanger of Cursor says the team is hard at work on Composer 2. The post gives no features, benchmarks, or release timing, though it follows Cursor's $2.3B Series D raise and over $1B in annualized revenue.

AIARC Prize Foundation announced ARC Prize Verified, a program that certifies frontier model scores on the ARC-AGI benchmark using hidden test sets and adds a third-party academic panel to audit and open-source its testing process. Five AI labs, including Google and xAI, are sponsoring ARC-AGI-3 development, and the foundation says donations do not influence verification scoring. Models that pass verification will appear on the official leaderboard with a verification badge.

AIUniversal Music Group and Stability AI announced a strategic alliance to co-develop professional music creation tools built on responsibly trained generative AI. The collaboration will work with UMG artists to research their needs and prioritize their feedback in building fully licensed, commercially safe AI music tools. Stability AI's Stable Audio models, which the company says were trained exclusively on licensed data, are part of its audio offering.

AIFactory has announced a partnership with Amazon Web Services and made its Droids agent platform available on the AWS Marketplace. Enterprise teams can use existing AWS Enterprise Discount Program commitments to buy Factory, with Droids accessible from CLI, Terminal UI, Web, Slack, Linear, and an IDE overlay. The source cites 31× faster feature development, 96.1%+ reduction in migration times, and 95.8% reduction in incident resolution times.

AIStability AI and Electronic Arts have formed a strategic partnership to co-develop generative AI models, tools, and workflows for EA's artists, designers, and developers. Among the first initiatives is accelerating the creation of Physically Based Rendering (PBR) materials, such as 2D textures that preserve color and light accuracy across environments. The partners also plan to build AI systems that pre-visualize entire 3D environments from a series of prompts.

AICognition, maker of the AI software engineer Devin, raised over $400M at a $10.2B post-money valuation led by Founders Fund. The company says its acquisition of Windsurf more than doubled its ARR, with combined enterprise ARR up over 30% in the seven weeks after the deal. It also reports Devin ARR grew from $1M in September 2024 to $73M in June 2025, with total net burn under $20M.

AICognition has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Windsurf, including its IP, product, trademark, brand, and team. The deal includes Windsurf's IDE, now with full access to the latest Claude models, and $82M of ARR with enterprise ARR doubling quarter-over-quarter. Cognition says it will invest heavily in integrating Windsurf's capabilities into its products while Windsurf continues operating as before.

Why it matters: The post shows how an acquisition of an AI coding IDE was structured around staff treatment and product integration, with specific ARR and customer figures.
