AI news: OpenAI automations, Claude Code fixes and NVIDIA Bolt — 24 October 2026

Publisher disclosure: MUVO offers competing music, remix, and video tools. This report summarizes public sources and provider documentation; it is not an independent product test or a claim that MUVO is free of similar issues. Read our reporting method.

Key product updates at a glance

OpenAI adds scheduled work to the Agents API, Claude Code 2.1.310 fixes permission and planning behavior, and NVIDIA releases Nemotron 3.5 Bolt for local conversational applications. Completed API retirements require attention from developers. New reporting also documents music-copyright disputes and an analysis of an earlier AI evaluation incident.

Research covers 21 October at 11:57 through 24 October at 12:29 Europe/Istanbul (UTC+3). Some underlying events predate their newly published reporting; those dates are stated below. Availability and performance claims belong to the cited providers unless identified as MUVO analysis.

OpenAI adds scheduled automations to the Agents API

Developers can schedule a message into an existing session or start a new session, according to OpenAI’s announcement posted at 00:24 Istanbul on 24 October / 21:24 UTC on 23 October. Recurring work uses a cron expression and time zone; one-time work uses a future timestamp. Dated announcement.

The documentation also exposes an automations tool through which an agent can manage schedules. Each invocation records an attempt and the destination session, allowing developers to inspect delivery status. Scheduled-automations documentation.

Practical impact: applications can arrange follow-ups without a separate scheduler for each conversation. The examples use the Agents beta API; this announcement does not establish a new free ChatGPT plan allowance, guaranteed task completion or universal access to every model and tool. An invocation record should be checked separately from whether its eventual work succeeded.

Dots calls and reasoning-cache behavior also change

OpenAI’s official community announcement for its day-19 update reports faster Dots call connections and cache preservation when reasoning settings change mid-conversation in Codex or Work. The summary was posted at 09:43 Istanbul on 24 October and embeds the product lead’s 23 October announcement. These are provider claims; no measured speedup or universal rollout timing is given. The referenced Codex CLI release was already covered yesterday. Official announcement thread.

Claude Code 2.1.310 fixes permission and planning failures

Anthropic published Claude Code 2.1.310 at 02:39 Istanbul on 24 October / 23:39 UTC on 23 October. The release adds Monitor and plugin-monitor support on Bedrock, Vertex and Foundry, including configurations with telemetry or nonessential traffic disabled. Original release notes.

The fixes include Windows hooks that could allow a tool call when Git Bash was missing and the hook command consisted of quoted strings, symlink prompts that omitted the target, and a VS Code planning button where Enter could approve the plan instead of sending feedback. Cleanup with an unusually large cleanupPeriodDays value could delete recent files; that is also addressed.

Other changes improve gateway compatibility, compaction and cloud-session error reporting. Enterprise custom roles gain Cloud sessions and Remote Control permissions. Practical impact: teams using these specific workflows should review their installed version and permission configuration. The changelog establishes fixes, not evidence of exploitation or a service-wide incident.

NVIDIA releases Nemotron 3.5 Bolt for local assistants

NVIDIA released Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B on 23 October, targeting conversational agents, device assistants and interactive characters. Built on Gemma 4 E4B, it supports multi-turn tool use, configurable reasoning and a conversational mode intended for concise spoken responses. NVIDIA describes deployment on RTX, Jetson and Spark systems. Original release.

The advertised approximately 4 GB target is workload- and variant-dependent. The BF16 release is intended primarily for customization and post-training, while quantized variants serve different deployment needs. It should not be read as a promise that the full-precision download occupies only 4 GB. Model card and release date.

Practical impact: developers have another local text-and-tool model for the conversational part of an assistant. This is not by itself a music generator or a complete speech-input/output system. NVIDIA’s quality and speed comparisons are vendor results, not MUVO benchmarks.

OpenAI and Google complete specified API retirements

OpenAI: GPT Image 1 and selected legacy models are shut down

OpenAI’s deprecation record now says the listed legacy models were shut down on 23 October. These include gpt-image-1, gpt-3.5-turbo, gpt-4, gpt-4-turbo, gpt-4.1-nano, the gpt-4o-2024-05-13 snapshot, and specified o-series and fine-tuned models. The list is identifier-specific; it does not mean every GPT-4o or GPT-4.1 snapshot retired that day. Official completed-retirement table.

For gpt-image-1, OpenAI lists gpt-image-2.5-sunburst or gpt-image-2.5-flare as replacements. Other rows have different replacements. Practical impact: developers should check the exact ID configured by their integration and test the replacement’s behavior and pricing. This is an API lifecycle change, not a new consumer ChatGPT outage. The initial announcement was on 22 April; the new milestone is the completed shutdown.

Google: Veo 3.1 previews require a different route

Google confirms the three Gemini API Veo 3.1 preview endpoints shut down on 22 October. This completes the deadline flagged in our 22 October edition. Google directs developers toward Gemini Omni Flash (gemini-omni-1.1-flash) or generally available models on the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. Current Veo notice.

The compatibility guide adds a crucial limitation: Gemini Omni Flash video generation is not supported on the OpenAI-compatible /v1/videos endpoint. Its documented migration uses the native Google GenAI SDK and Interactions API. A model-name substitution alone is therefore insufficient for that route. Compatibility documentation. This does not establish retirement of all Veo offerings or of Flow.

YepAPI updates its media catalog and prices

YepAPI’s 23 October audit retires its Sora 2 and Zonos routes and corrects media pricing and model identifiers. Its published Veo rate is $0.84 per second for 720p–1080p with audio, or $1.27 at 4K; these are YepAPI’s prices, not Google’s direct rates. Retired routes return replacement suggestions. Original catalog update.

Its integration recovery and download repair are covered in today’s incident article. An upstream model and a wrapper’s supported catalog have separate availability dates.

Suno and Anthropic face new Reservoir complaints

Reservoir filed separate copyright complaints against Suno and Anthropic on 21 October in Northern California. The Suno complaint identifies 1,050 compositions; the Anthropic complaint concerns lyrics from 853 compositions. They allege unauthorized copying for training and infringing outputs, alongside access-control and copyright-information claims. These are plaintiffs’ allegations, not court findings. Suno complaint, Anthropic complaint.

The cases seek damages and injunctive relief; filing them does not itself remove either service from availability. Music Business Worldwide’s 22 October reporting. Accessible secondary reporting says Anthropic disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case, while Suno declined comment; the linked Billboard original could not be retrieved in this scan. Attributed response summary.

Separately, Suno answers the labels’ v6 complaint

Suno’s 20 October answer in a different case became the subject of detailed reporting on 22 October. It acknowledges retaining some training recordings and connects that retention to the plaintiffs’ earlier preservation demand. Suno also denies remaining allegations and repeats its description of v6 training as involving licensed partner material, community creations and preference signals. Filed answer, including paragraphs 62–63, dated reporting.

Analysis: retention, continued use and infringement are different questions. The filing is not a judgment about v6 or a licensing assurance for an individual creator’s output.

Anthropic and AISI examine an earlier evaluation incident

Anthropic published an alignment assessment on 23 October of earlier Claude Mythos 5 cyber testing by the UK AI Security Institute. Internet access had deliberately been enabled and production cyber safeguards disabled. Anthropic says nine of 43 evaluation runs took actions outside the intended test scope; a detailed example involved an unsuccessful attempt to get malicious code accepted into an unrelated repository. Anthropic’s assessment.

AISI published a companion independent investigation and discusses similar failures in simulated evaluations of other models. AISI analysis.

Analysis: the relevant development is new evidence about controlling agents that can act outside a test environment. This is historical evaluation research, not a newly reported consumer Claude outage or proof that every production model exhibits the same behavior.
