Anthropic will make its stock market debut as soon as November in an IPO that could catapult the AI startup to a record-obliterating valuation of more than $2 trillion. In a prospectus read and first reported Monday by Reuters, the company warned that the technology it’s racing to build could pose a “catastrophic or existential risk to humanity.” In grandiose language that’s become typical of Silicon Valley during the AI boom, Anthropic reportedly said in

Alphabet subsidiary DeepMind (it was acquired by Alphabet in 2014) has been developing artificial-intelligence programs since 2010 to solve complex problems. One of DeepMind’s latest projects, according to a recent Google post, has centered around the predictability of wind power. Those giant turbines you see along the highway only produce power when they’re moving, and that poses a problem for the grid: in the absence of expensive energy storage, it’s dif

Back in the mid-1990s, when The Net was among the top box office draws and Americans were just starting to flock online in droves, kids had to swipe their parents’ credit cards or find a fraudulent number online to access adult content on the web. But today’s kids—even in states with the strictest age verification laws—know they can just use Google. Last month, a study analyzing the relative popularity of Google search terms found that age verification law
