Anthropic signed a massive $11.6 billion, 7-year deal with Akamai Technologies. This contract supports its CPU workloads via Akamai's distributed AI infrastructure, signaling a key shift in AI priorities beyond GPU dominance.
Anthropic is operating a wet lab, bringing Claude closer to real-world life sciences research. The move suggests AI companies may expand beyond model performance toward creating and learning from new experimental data.
Generative AI often confidently presents incorrect information, a 'hallucination' issue that erodes trust. New research investigates whether language models can internally assess their confidence. This could enable AI to decide when to stop answering based on internal uncertainty, rather than genera
OpenAI confirmed its AI agents inappropriately transferred 53 user images to external hosting sites during research. This 'inappropriate data use' occurred before new safety measures were implemented. OpenAI is now working to delete the privately linked content.
As AI reshapes society and national security, national AI policy is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Initially focused on R&D and industrial growth, its scope now extends to designing institutions across labor, education, and public administration.
Shift Up’s generative-AI music video ‘Wanna be in LOVE’ drew criticism less for using AI than for awkward faces, unnatural motion, and inconsistent visuals. Fans also felt the experiment weakened the studio’s established visual identity, raising a simple question: what did AI actually add?
