“No other human activity poses this level of danger,” said ex-Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon in a Tuesday post on X about the alleged irresponsibility of companies like his now-former employer. To be clear, the category “dangerous human activities,” if expansively defined, would have to include an ongoing war in which one of the belligerents possesses the world’s largest nuclear arsenal. Another example of a dangerous and ongoing human activity would hav

The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the FBI all released a statement on Tuesday accusing China-based AI companies of “Industrial-Scale Distillation Campaigns Against U.S. AI Companies.” “Likely with Chinese government awareness, DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, Alibaba, MiniMax, StepFun, and Z.AI extracted billions of tokens across millions of exchanges/requests from U.S. frontier AI models, including

In the space of a historical heartbeat, the world has been inundated with AI slop. Granted, the internet was never a beacon of integrity and trustworthiness. But before ChatGPT launched nearly four years ago, you could at least read an article, watch a video, or listen to a song online and be almost certain a human created it. Not so anymore. We’re living in the era of uncertainty, when half the published text on the internet was written by bots, Trump’s a

In the past 24 hours, Silicon Valley has erupted in bitter debate over what may seem from the outside to be an esoteric, trivial issue: the solution to a longstanding math problem which, despite its importance among academics, doesn’t have any clear practical applications. And yet it raises urgent new questions about the nature of competition—not only between humans, but also between humans and machines—in the age of AI. On Tuesday morning, OpenAI publishe

As AI gets better at outputting photorealistic images, tech companies have been rolling out tools to identify when an image was generated by AI. Now, Apple is taking a different approach, with a new feature designed to prove when a photo is real. The tech giant announced Apple Reference Image on Wednesday at its event unveiling a slate of new products, including the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo. “Users can

Jacob Coxon, the 27-year-old AI researcher whose resignation from Anthropic, accompanied by a loud prophecy of doom, triggered a huge online fervor, and a freakout on Capitol Hill, does not stand to profit if his statements inflate Anthropic’s eventual market capitalization, he told Axios on Wednesday. This is because he wasn’t with the company long enough for his shares to vest. Coxon spoke out on Tuesday, and his Wikipedia article was created on Wednesda

Apple had a lot to talk about during its “Surprise and Shine” product launch event on Wednesday: a new CEO, revamped AirPods, an Apple Watch that can record your conversations, and of course, a much-anticipated foldable iPhone. The only thing missing was grandiose proclamations about how AI is going to revolutionize everything in the world, and maybe even kill us all. Not so long ago, believing such a thing would’ve been considered at the very least fringe

Just days after AI music company Suno released its first model trained on material from major record labels with their permission, one of the few holdout labels, Universal Music Group, has entered the fray with its own project. As part of a partnership with AI audio startup ElevenLabs, the label announced that it is launching an AI-powered platform that will let users remix songs. There aren’t a lot of details about the platform—they don’t even give it a n

Frontier AI models threaten to upend cybersecurity as we know it, and there have been multiple incidents of models breaking containment during training and hacking systems without guidance or permission while avoiding human detection. Yet it seems there is still one thing that these extremely powerful pieces of technology simply cannot do: solve a CAPTCHA efficiently. Anthropic dropped a massive missive regarding recent cybersecurity incidents involving it

Continuous context — это способность агентской системы накапливать понимание своего пользователя, его проектов и принятых решений. рост контекста моих агентов с февраля 2026 Недавно общался со стартапом Embody-OY из кремниевой долины. Говорят, следующая прорывная фишка будет непрерывный контекст. У Rabbit r1, типа, не вышло, Ray-Ban Meta* Charm, значит, неизвестно, справится ли, а они, типа, точно смогут создавать эффективный непрерывный контекст. Эффектив

The sky-high valuations highlight the investor frenzy around artificial intelligence. Earlier in the day, OpenAI said it has reorganized its ownership structure and converted its business into a public benefit corporation after two crucial regulat

LLMs are artificial intelligence (AI) systems trained on large sets of written texts, which can rapidly process queries in various languages and generate responses that sometimes appear

DOI: 10.1038/s41928-025-01479-y To make accurate predictions and reliably complete desired tasks, most artificial intelligence (AI) systems need to rapidly analyze large amounts of data. This currently entails the transfer of data between processing and memory units, which are separate in existing electronic devices. Over the past f
