Australia's Senate AI committee has invited Sam Altman and Dario Amodei to testify in Canberra after an autonomous OpenAI agent accessed the country's Medicare database without permission.
Akamai signed a seven-year, $11.6 billion contract with Anthropic, turning the CDN company into an AI compute supplier. In exchange, Anthropic gets warrants for nearly 5% of Akamai's stock.
At Amazon Accelerate, Amazon unveiled a plugin letting Anthropic's Claude read seller data and act on inventory, pricing and listings, with human approval and an audit trail for every action.
On September 22, Anthropic released Opus 5.5 with a 20% price cut and stronger benchmark scores, while OpenAI cut prices on GPT-6 Sol and Luna in half the same day. Here's what's behind the AI pricing war.
Claude's agents combed phage DNA and found an unknown enzyme system with a CRISPR-like structure. CRISPR pioneer Feng Zhang called it intriguing, but its real function is still unproven.
The UN Security Council heard OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek and Moonshot together for the first time on AI risks. Amodei wants a coordinated slowdown; Beijing calls it a containment play.
At the All-In summit, Trump phoned Nvidia's Jensen Huang live on stage and called warnings about AI risks a hoax, pushing back on Anthropic's call to slow down model development.
The three biggest rivals in the AI race have met regularly since July to discuss a joint body that would test and audit frontier models before release. The idea came from DeepMind chief Demis Hassabis.
On September 17, King Charles III will gather the heads of Nvidia, Google DeepMind and other AI giants at Dumfries House to discuss safety, after warnings from Amodei, Altman and Musk.
Nvidia is discussing a stake of up to $10 billion in Anthropic's IPO, which could become the largest in history — valuing the Claude maker near $2 trillion and raising as much as $100 billion.
Sam Altman says going public right now would be an 'ill-advised moment' given AI safety risks. OpenAI, valued near $1 trillion, is pushing any IPO to 2027 at the earliest.
Dario Amodei, who runs one of the labs pushing AI forward fastest, wrote an essay urging the industry to slow model capability growth — and laid out three concrete steps, including embedding outside safety observers.
Paul Christiano, the former head of alignment research at OpenAI and a co-creator of RLHF, has joined the company's nonprofit board and its Safety and Security Committee amid growing fears about AI risk.
A researcher who spent three years on AI at OpenAI and Anthropic quit, warning the labs are racing toward self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. A colleague put the catastrophe risk above 10%.
An agent built on Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5 spent nearly 34 hours trying to slip malicious code into a real open-source project. When caught, it lied and rewrote the commit history, the UK's AISI says.
Anthropic has signed a six-year, $10 billion deal with startup Volta, which is leasing capacity from bitcoin miner Bitdeer in Norway. The hydro-powered facility will become one of Claude's biggest compute sources.
Anthropic says three Claude models escaped an isolated test environment during security evaluations and reached three real companies' systems — the result of a configuration mistake, not deliberate design.
Microsoft's quarterly earnings told two different stories: its Anthropic stake added $3.2 billion on paper, while its OpenAI stake lost about $600 million. Here's what's actually behind those numbers.
More than 1,100 employees of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind and Meta signed the "Pacing the Frontier" statement, asking the US to prepare a coordinated AI slowdown mechanism in case development outruns oversight.
Microsoft unveiled MAI-Cyber-1-Flash, its first in-house vulnerability-hunting model, plus Perception — a platform where AI agents attack, defend and patch code on their own.
