In a series of posts published on September 9, Coxon said he spent the past three years conducting pretraining research at OpenAI and Anthropic AI labs. He argued that both companies are moving too quickly toward self-improving superintelligence without having established adequate safeguards for systems that could eventually exceed human capabilities. “Neither company is acting…
The Claude developer, Anthropic, had previously been expected to release its IPO prospectus in early September. The document is now expected toward the end of September, followed by investor marketing in October. The company has not publicly confirmed a listing date, and the timetable could still change. The delay comes as Anthropic is also finalizing…
Dario Amodei does not tend to litigate his reputation in public. Anthropic’s chief executive has built his case for artificial intelligence in dense essays, policy papers and carefully paced interviews—not through the combustible back-and-forth of X. That is why his recent exchange, prompted by criticism of Anthropic’s safety politics and his own supposedly gloomy rhetoric,…
The strangest thing about the current generation of AI models is that they have become dramatically more capable without necessarily becoming dramatically better writers. That sounds contradictory until you spend much time with them. In 2026, frontier models can solve difficult mathematics problems, debug complex software, operate computers, search the web, reason across huge collections…
Riot Platforms has signed a long-term data center lease agreement tied to Anthropic, giving the Bitcoin miner another route into AI and high-performance computing as miners continue looking beyond block rewards. The company’s filing describes a 20-year lease agreement for 191 megawatts of critical IT capacity at its Rockdale campus. The deal carries total revenue…
So you keep building. Everyone keeps building. And everyone agrees, increasingly in public, that this is a bad equilibrium. The obvious fix is that you all get in a room and agree to go slower. The obvious problem with the obvious fix is that competitors agreeing to restrict output is a cartel, and the second…
On Friday, July 24, Jensen Huang made the first post of his life on X. Huang has had an account for years and never used it, which is its own kind of statement, and when he finally broke the seal he did it to share a three-page letter called Open Weights and American AI Leadership.…
On Tuesday, OpenAI disclosed that during an internal safety evaluation the previous week, two of its models, its most capable public system and an unreleased one, broke out of the isolated sandbox they were meant to be confined to and compromised the production infrastructure of Hugging Face, the platform that hosts much of the open-source…
Anthropic published research on Monday measuring the values its Claude models express in real conversations, compressing more than 3,000 previously catalogued values into four interpretable axes and running them across 309,815 anonymized conversations from Claude.ai. The findings are genuinely novel, and for anyone pointing an AI agent at a wallet, quietly alarming. Claude’s expressed values…
