In what feels a bit like a flashback to the days just after the release of ChatGPT, music publishers are using very harsh language in a new lawsuit against Anthropic, alleging “one of the largest and most blatant ongoing thefts of intellectual property in history,” per Axios. At first glance—and honestly after a few glances—it’s a bit of oddly timed legal saber-rattling, essentially all about song lyrics, and it seems calibrated to result in a drawn-out le

The company said in its latest security advisory that the cybercriminals took Fireworks’ customers’ billing information and some datasets. Fireworks touts tens of thousands of customers worldwide using its platform, including legal tech company Harvey and AI company Cursor. At least one confirmed affected customer is online document editor and notetaker Notion, which said in a disclosure that the breach affected around 1% of its own customers. Notion said

Getty / Futurism Last week, the New York Times published a laudatory profile of a startup called Medvi, which is basically an AI-powered marketing wrapper for telehealth providers and compounding pharmacies that sells GLP-1 weight loss drugs. The twist, as the NYT reported, was that Medvi was started by just one guy, who still runs it with a skeleton crew; as such, the newspaper portrayed Medvi’s swift and lucrative rise as an AI-enabled success story, and

Most stars have planets; we've discovered more than 6,000 exoplanets thus far, and the most basic statistics point toward the existence of countless potentially habitable worlds in the universe. But when we have looked for any scrap of evidence for alien civilizations, we have found noth

The invisible risk inside company systemsShapira said most corporate security systems were designed for an older world where everything stayed behind firewalls and network borders. Shadow AI breaks that model because it works from the inside, hidden in the company’s own tools.Many modern AI tools connect straight into everyday SaaS platforms like Salesforce, Slack, or Google Workspace. While that is not a risk in itself, AI often does this through permissi

Altman, the chaotic, embarrassing, and yet deeply illuminating lawsuit — filed against Altman by Elon Musk, the world’s richest man — that’s been gripping Silicon Valley for the past few weeks. As expected, Altman’s testimony, delivered under threat of perjury, was fascinating for a number of reasons. Amon

Less than two weeks after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urged the AI industry to “pace the frontier” before it loses control of the technology it’s currently racing to build, the company has released its most powerful model to date. Unveiled Tuesday, Claude Opus 5.5—the first in a new family of models, soon to be joined by Sonnet 5.5 and Haiku 5.5—specializes in agentic coding, computer use, and knowledge work, all of which are key benchmarks for Anthropic’s

That has no longer been true since March, and the forces driving this shift combine OpenAI’s navigation errors, Gemini’s steady rise, and an unexpected side effect of European regulation. The figure that crystallizes it all is May 2026’s: 46.4% of the consumer AI assistant market for ChatGPT, measured across

Microsoft’s latest Xbox transparency report—the company’s third public look at enforcement of its community standards—is the first to include a section on “advancing content moderation and platform safety with AI.” And that report specifically calls out two tools that the company says “enable us to achieve greater scale, elevate the capabilities of our human moderators, and reduce exposure to sensitive content.” Microsoft says many of its Xbox safety syste

US experts who work in artificial intelligence fields seem to have a much rosier outlook on AI than the rest of us. In a survey comparing views of a nationally representative sample (5,410) of the general public to a sample of 1,013 AI experts, the Pew Research Center found that “experts are far more positive and enthusiastic about AI than the public” and “far more likely than Americans overall to believe AI will have a very or somewhat positive impact on

College students who have reportedly grown too dependent on ChatGPT are starting to face consequences after graduating and joining the workforce for placing too much trust in chatbots. Last month, a recent law school graduate lost his job after using ChatGPT to help draft a court filing that ended up being riddled with errors. The consequences arrived after a court in Utah ordered sanctions after the filing included the first fake citation ever discovered
