  "summary": "Google reshuffled its AI leadership as Demis Hassabis moved from DeepMind chief executive to chairman and chief scientist Jeff Dean left after 27 years. The change drew coverage across CNBC, The Verge and YouTube, while reporting examined the departure of key builders during Google's continued AI expansion.\n\nMeta launched Muse Code, an agent designed for large codebases, while OpenAI highlighted Voice in Codex to an audience of 102,000 measured X views. GitHub showcased stacked Copilot sessions, Runway previewed Seedance 2.5, and Together AI promoted Kimi K3's autonomous legal benchmark results.",
