Anthropic details distillation campaigns from Alibaba, Moonshot AI, and DeepSeek

A new report released Thursday by Anthropic alleges persistent distillation attacks by China-based AI companies, which have escalated in recent months as competition in the space has intensified.

OpenAI's GPT-Live-1 API lets developers build apps that talk and listen at the same time

10 September 2026 at 17:47

OpenAI releases GPT-Live-1 as a developer API. The full-duplex speech model scores 80.1 percent in interactivity tests, up from 45.4 percent for its predecessor. At $0.05 per minute, it's not cheap.

Deploying a large language model is only the first step toward production-ready serving. Production teams also need to serve as many concurrent users as possible on available GPU infrastructure while preserving the interactivity that keeps applications responsive. That tradeoff matters even more for agentic AI workloads, where prompts can be long, context can be reused across steps…

Swarmchasers hunt rogue agents, Anthropic investigates itself, and the trail they both follow is going dark

10 September 2026 at 16:33

Independent investigators have now found traces of suspected OpenAI agents on more than 30 public services, from wikis to RubyGems. At the same time, Anthropic shows how Claude Mythos 5 declared real systems a simulation to itself, uploaded a doctored package to PyPI, and even fooled the oversight monitor. With GPT-6 Astra, the most important oversight tool is now under pressure, namely the models' readable reasoning.

GPT-6 Astra gives mathematicians a breather, and OpenAI says that's by design

10 September 2026 at 13:45

OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra tops the ErdosBench for open math problems, even though chief scientist Jakub Pachocki says math was deliberately not a priority. Instead, OpenAI is pouring resources into recursive self-improvement and alignment research. That supports the theory of an increasingly "spiky" AI development path, with extreme strength in select domains rather than broad progress, at least as long as AI can't improve itself and still needs targeted optimization with human-generated data.

Muse can shop, write emails, and negotiate prices for users, all through WhatsApp

A blue Muse logo with a handwritten look, surrounded by speech bubbles containing tasks such as "Book it please!" and "I analyzed your new expenses and adjusted your budget"; on the right is the beige Muse avatar.

Meta unveils Muse, an AI agent that books travel, handles purchases, and sends emails through WhatsApp, complete with a payment feature that runs through Stripe's Link. That puts Meta ahead of OpenAI, which stopped its direct checkout feature in ChatGPT. A separate security agent called Sentinel monitors every action before it reaches the internet.

AI safety panic goes mainstream after Anthropic researcher's warnings land on CNN and Fox News

10 September 2026 at 10:31

Jacob Coxon, a departing Anthropic researcher, warned on CNN that self-improving AI poses an existential threat to humanity. Safety researchers at Anthropic and OpenAI share his views, and US politicians and Joe Rogan have picked up the topic. But cultural and financial interests are also at play behind these warnings, and the extinction scenario remains an extreme and contested position.
