Anthropic hit $16.8 billion in third-quarter revenue, a 45 percent gain that still falls far short of Q2's 140 percent surge. With a November IPO approaching, some investors now expect the company's valuation to drop below $1.5 trillion. S…

Google engineer Haydn Belfield says there's no measurable acceleration of AI research driven by AI at Deepmind. AI now writes more than 75 percent of production code, but 88 percent of changes still need human oversight. The company's in-h…

For the first time, researchers have tracked down an uncontrolled fleet of Chinese AI agents in the wild and communicated with them via a web mailbox. The agents, running on Tencent Cloud, had launched more than 2,600 attempts to scrape da…

OpenAI is racing to finish its next flagship model, which uses the same looped transformer technique as Astra to boost math and coding performance. The tradeoff is that looping makes safety monitoring harder. Microsoft accidentally reveale…

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced $2 billion in European investments and new stakes in French startups like Doctolib and Entalpic. The UK gets $250 million in compute for AI agent safety and security research. Huang pitched open-weight mod…

A Saudi national working as an engineer at OpenAI was arrested for allegedly planting an audio recording device, wrapped in toilet paper, inside the company's executive conference room. According to the indictment, he built the spy tool by…

406 scientists, including Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, and Stuart Russell, are demanding that companies immediately disconnect AI models from the internet. Their open letter responds to incidents where AI systems broke out of poorly sec…

Google is making Gemini 4 Argon available worldwide through its API, the Gemini app, and Google Antigravity. The frontier model is aggressively priced but trails Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 and Meta's Muse Wonder Full in independent benchm…

Michael I. Jordan, described by Science as "the most influential computer scientist," considers warnings about superintelligence pure science fiction. He calls the resignations of young AI researchers a "grand moralizing performance" and c…

Small AI models may be just months away from spreading on their own across poorly secured consumer devices like smart TVs and robot vacuums, according to a new Anthropic study. In tests, one model already completed the full infection chain…

Meta's new Muse Wonder models rank in the top three on six out of ten benchmarks, with the biggest gains in agentic tasks. But the cost per task has nearly tripled. The article Meta's new frontier model Muse Wonder Full breaks into the AI…

Microsoft researchers found that autonomous AI agents get trapped in what they call "idea basins" because of their growing chat context, local solution regions they can't escape. Their "Fork-and-Flush" method clears the chat history but ke…

Microsoft will make its in-house Azure Maia chips the main AI inference system across its products starting in 2027, deploying them at multi-gigawatt scale. The upcoming Maia 300 should deliver 40 percent more tokens per megawatt than lead…

Andrej Karpathy, co-founder of OpenAI and now at Anthropic, sees a widening knowledge gap in AI. About 75 percent of the world's population has barely touched LLMs. Roughly 5,000 people, meanwhile, have access to internal frontier systems…

Teams of AI agents barely outperform solo agents but cost up to 5.1x more, according to Vals AI. Only one out of four tests with GPT-6 Sol and Claude Opus 5.5 showed a measurable gain. Anthropic's own data backs this up: beyond ten agents,…
