The arrangement comes at a time where incidents of AI agents acting outside their instructions have been disclosed every week or two since late August. The incidents have sharpened calls for independent checks on AI companies. “We want to be publicly accountable for the decisions we’re making,” Anthropic said in the blog post. “We aim to close the gap between what evaluators understand about a frontier AI company’s systems and what the company itself under

Politico recently reported that the AI lab has been shopping around a new draft bill on AI safety that it hopes Congress might consider adopting. The legislation posits certain scenarios in which the release of an AI model could be blocked from distribution. Those scenarios involve a “foreseeable, imminent risk” — one in which over 50 people are at risk of dying or if over a billion dollars in property damage could result, Politico writes. The catastrophic

“What we’re building at Amazon is unlike anything that’s ever been seen before. There has never been a business with a trillion dollars of annual revenue,” he said. However, before the cloud business gets there, Amazon is going to have to ramp up its capital expenditures to build out the infrastructure necessary to support that blossoming business. “We still expect 2026 cash capex of approximately $220 billion — the majority for AWS — and expect to spend m

We’re releasing an analysis showing that since 2012, the amount of compute used in the largest AI training runs has been increasing exponentially with a 3.4-month doubling time (by comparison, Moore’s Law had a 2-year doubling period)[^footnote-correction]. Since 2012, this metric has grown by more than 300,000x (a 2-year doubling period would yield only a 7x increase). Improvements in compute have been a key component of AI progress, so as long as this tr

Paf adopted ChatGPT Enterprise across its entire company, with engineers using custom GPTs on a daily basis to speed up routine development tasks. Paf also integrated ChatGPT Enterprise into the grit:lab coding academy (gritlab.ax), training the next generation of software developers using an AI-augmented, systems-architecture mindset from day one. In addition to the wide range of use cases for developers and grit:lab students, 70% of Paf employees activel

Qualcomm Showcases an On-Device MoE Agent at the 9th China International Import Expo What stage has on-device AI reached? After three to four years of development, on-device AI is reaching an important inflection point. From an application perspective, on-device AI did not begin with large models. Imaging was actually one of the earlier areas where AI was deployed on devices. In recent years, smartphone photography has continued to improve, driven in part
