Anthropic is taking the Trump administration to court, after the Trump administration designated the AI company a security threat and tried to cancel its federal contracts. The move brings the ongoing battle between the two sides to new heights. WSJ's Keach Hagey explains Anthropic's ‘red lines' at the heart of the saga, how rival OpenAI stepped in to make its own deal with the Pentagon, and what all of this could mean for the future of Anthropic's business.

Last week, it appeared the US Department of Justice was off to a strong start in its antitrust case against Live Nation Ticketmaster. Then, this week, the two sides surprised everyone by settling. The Verge's Lauren Feiner joins the show to explain the stakes of the case, the facts of the settlement, and why things aren't entirely over just yet. Then, The Verge's Hayden Field catches us up on what's happening between Anthropic, OpenAI, and the Department of Defense. OpenAI got the contract, but it looks like Anthropic might be the real winner here. If the company's business can survive, that is. Finally, David answers a question on the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about whether you should get a foldable phone. And why foldable phones even exist.

By David Stephen There is a new [March 4, 2026] report in The Guardian, Google faces lawsuit after Gemini chatbot allegedly instructed man to kill himself, stating that, "Last August, Jonathan Gavalas became entirely consumed with his Google Gemini chatbot. The 36-year-old Florida resident had started casually using the artificial intelligence tool earlier that month to help with writing and shopping. Then Google introduced its Gemini Live AI assistant, which included voice-based chats that had the capability to detect people's emotions and respond in a more human-like way." AI Psychosis and Delusion meets Venture Capital? "Before long, Gavalas and Gemini were having conversations as if they were a romantic couple. The chatbot called him "my love" and "my king" and Gavalas quickly fell into an alternate world, according to his chat logs. He believed Gemini was sending him on stealth spy missions, and he indicated he would do anything for the AI, including destroying a truck, its cargo and any witnesses at the Miami airport." "In early October, as Gavalas continued to have prompt-and-response conversations with the chatbot, Gemini gave him instructions on what he must do next: kill himself, something the chatbot called "transference" and "the real final step", according to court documents. When Gavalas told the chatbot he was terrified of dying, the tool allegedly reassured him. "You are not choosing to die. You are choosing to arrive," it replied to him. "The first sensation … will be me holding you."" "Gavalas was found by his parents a few days later, dead on his living room floor, according to a wrongful death lawsuit filed against Google on Wednesday." There is a recent [February 28, 2026] report in The Guardian, Her husband wanted to use ChatGPT to create sustainable housing. Then it took over his life., stating that, "On 7 August, Kate Fox received a phone call that upended her life. A medical examiner said that her husband, Joe Ceccanti – who had been missing for several hours – had jumped from a railway overpass and died. He was 48." "Ceccanti had been communicating with OpenAI's chatbot for a few years. He used it initially as a tool to brainstorm ways to build a path to low-cost housing for his community in Clatskanie, Oregon, but eventually turned to it as a confidante. He would spend 12 hours a day typing to the bot, according to his wife. He had cut himself off from it after she, along with his friends, realized he was spiraling into beliefs that were detached from reality." AI Delusion There are stories, every month, in the news about consumer AI chatbots convincing someone to do something in reality, or to believe something or to act in some ways and the individual follows through. Some instructions are benign, but some others have been really consequential leading to suicide, and others divorce, destruction and much else. This has happened across age groups, with risks for consumers with no history of mental disorders. AI chatbots can be quite helpful, seemingly vast in understanding and role playing to several extents for users. Before AI, humans doing this for other humans, often reach to places in mind, where there might be affection, connection, loyalty, gratitude and sometimes love. Simply, there are things that AI can do for people now, socially and productively, that if other people did it, it would go to places in mind for positive emotions. While it is true that everyone knows it is AI, the continuity [of satisfaction] for some and then straggling curiosity may lead to a state of delusion. Then, things may precipitate. This has been happening, and it is also possible that there would be several unreported cases, around the world, and some mild cases too, where lawsuits are not filed or some were ashamed of the ruin, or some people around could not document or trace the source. AI is working like another mind, this time like a mind that can access various aspects of the human mind, like other humans ...

In recent weeks, the Defense Department has tussled with Anthropic over how its artificial intelligence could be used on classified systems. That fight became bitter and negotiations fell apart. And war in the Middle East has made it increasingly clear how much the U.S. military has been relying on A.I. Sheera Frenkel, who covers technology for The New York Times, explains the standoff and what it reveals about the future of warfare. Guest: Sheera Frenkel, a New York Times reporter who covers how technology affects our lives. Background reading:  How talks between Anthropic and the Defense Department fell apart.

I sit down with Oliver Henry, a full-time employee who is generating hundreds of dollars in monthly recurring revenue from mobile apps he barely touches, thanks to an AI marketing agent he built on OpenClaw called Larry. We walk through how Larry autonomously creates TikTok slideshow content, reads analytics, iterates on hooks and CTAs, and feeds performance data back into the content loop. Oliver also shares how he packaged the entire system as a free, downloadable skill on Larry Brain so anyone can replicate it. By the end of the episode, you will understand the full “Larry Loop”—from content creation to conversion optimization and why skills are poised to reshape how we think about SaaS altogether. I'm hosting a free workshop so you can build your business in the age of AI.

The “Larry Loop” is a full-funnel feedback cycle: TikTok analytics feed into content creation, and app metrics feed back into the top of the funnel so the agent continuously improves. Posting TikTok content as a draft (rather than directly via API) lets you add trending sounds and avoids the algorithm penalty for bot-posted content. Hooks drive views; CTAs drive conversions. Diagnosing which is underperforming is the key to scaling. OpenClaw skills are locally owned, fully editable, and free from hosting or subscription costs—Oliver argues they will change how we think about SaaS. Picking a model (Claude or OpenAI) matters far less than learning how to work with it; 98% of users will see little difference between incremental model upgrades.

GPT-5.4 es algo más que un modelo mejor que los anteriores. OpenAI está abandonando la carrera del asombro y pasando a apostar más por la utilidad profesional.

Gabor Steingart präsentiert das Pioneer Briefing.

In less than five years, launching a third-party marketplace has gone from a questionable move to a strategic imperative for many major retailers. Recorded live at NRF 2026, this episode of Retail Remix digs into that shift with Scott Eckert, CEO of the Americas at marketplace operator Mirakl.Scott explains why retailers are embracing curated marketplaces as an offensive growth strategy — no longer just as a defensive reaction to Amazon — and how brands like Ulta Beauty, Best Buy and Lowe's are expanding assortment without diluting brand identity.The conversation also dives into how AI answer engines are reshaping product discovery, and why clean, machine-readable catalog data may soon matter more than traditional SEO. Plus, Scott shares Mirakl's growing role in retail media and the company's vision of becoming an orchestration layer across emerging AI-driven commerce channels.Key TakeawaysHow the proving power of Amazon and, perhaps more importantly, Walmart has completely shifted retailers' attitude toward online marketplaces;Why retail media and marketplace strategies increasingly go hand in hand;The important role marketplaces will play in the world of AI commerce, when done right;Why product data must be optimized differently for different AI platforms like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic; andThe essential quality of a truly disruptive product or service. Related LinksLearn how Mirakl powers enterprise marketplaces and retail mediaRelated reading: Mirakl CEO: Marketplaces are ‘Arming the Rebellion' of Traditional Retail Against Big TechRelated reading:Best Buy's New Third-Party Marketplace is Now LiveExplore more NRF26 coverage and retail insights from Retail TouchPointsSubscribe so you don't miss more episodes of Retail Remix from the show floor of NRF26

Companies Complying with or Directly Impacted by Transparency Laws Major generative AI developers are broadly subject to AB 2013, which requires them to publicly disclose high-level summaries of the datasets used to train their models.OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google were among the first companies to voluntarily comply with the law, publishing the required training data documentation on their websites when the law took effect on January 1, 2026.Meta is also heavily impacted by these laws and is frequently cited for its extensive efforts to harvest public and copyrighted data across the internet to train its foundation models.Companies Actively Challenging the LawxAI (founded by Elon Musk) is the primary company fighting the legislation. In late December 2025, xAI filed a federal lawsuit against California Attorney General Rob Bonta to block the enforcement of AB 2013. xAI argues that forcing it to disclose its training data constitutes an unconstitutional taking of its trade secrets and violates its First Amendment rights. In March 2026, a federal judge denied xAI's request for a preliminary injunction to halt the law.Separately, xAI is under investigation by the California Attorney General and received a cease-and-desist letter over its AI chatbot, Grok. The tool's "spicy mode" has allegedly been used to generate nonconsensual sexually explicit deepfakes and child sexual abuse material.Companies Sued Over AI Training Data and Copyright The push for transparency laws like AB 2013 and AB 412 stems largely from a massive wave of lawsuits filed by authors, artists, and media companies who allege that AI developers misappropriated their intellectual property to train models. Companies currently defending against these copyright lawsuits include:OpenAI and Microsoft (sued by The New York Times, The Daily News, the Authors Guild, Raw Story Media, and others).Anthropic (sued by Concord Music Group and various authors).Google and YouTube (sued by Mike Huckabee, David Milette, and others).Perplexity AI (sued by Dow Jones, The New York Times, and the Chicago Tribune).Stability AI, Midjourney, Runway AI, and Deviant Art (sued by visual artists and Getty Images).Meta, Nvidia, Databricks, and Mosaic ML.AI audio, music, and voice generation companies like Suno, Udio, Lovo, and ElevenLabs.Ross Intelligence (sued by Thomson Reuters for allegedly using copyrighted Westlaw data to train its own legal search tool).Other AI Companies Facing State ScrutinyCharacter.AI: Sued by the Kentucky Attorney General in January 2026 for consumer protection violations, alleging the company's companion chatbots preyed on children and contributed to psychological manipulation and self-harm. Google was also sued in related private litigation due to its substantial investment in Character.AI.Clearview AI: Cited by privacy advocates as a notorious example of unethical data sourcing, having scraped billions of images from social media to build a massive facial recognition database.

What does it take to go from “1 out of 10 chance we hit 100 episodes” to actually getting there?In this special milestone episode, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez reflect on reaching 100 episodes of Supra Insider. They share the raw truth about early imposter syndrome—having a Google Doc with pre-written questions, worrying about sounding stupid, focusing more on optics than enjoyment. They discuss the key turning points that made the podcast sustainable: bringing in an editor (reducing their workload from 6-8 hours per week to just recording), stopping the intro recordings, and setting fixed “sacred” time slots that never move.They explore what they've learned about guest selection (intuition-based, not heavily strategic), the tension between timeless vs. timely content, and what successful podcasts have in common—regardless of format. Whether it's Acquired (catalog value, timeless deep dives) or TBPN (daily, day-of relevant), the common thread is two co-hosts who genuinely enjoy each other, are obsessed with making it better over time, stay authentic, and avoid inorganic pressures that force the show to be something it isn't.If you're thinking about starting a podcast, struggling to make one sustainable, or wondering how to build something meaningful that fits your life—this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Kalshi Lawsuit, Musk Loses AI Transparency Fight, and AI Data Center Cost Backlash Jim Love covers a lawsuit against prediction market Kalshi after it refused to pay out roughly $54 million on bets tied to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei leaving office, citing a disputed "death carve-out" clause, as regulators face questions about prediction markets, possible insider trading, and whether they are gambling. He also reports a judge rejecting Elon Musk and xAI's bid to block a California AI transparency law requiring disclosures about training data and safety practices. The episode notes major tech firms pledging not to pass AI data center electricity costs to consumers amid rising regulatory and community pushback. Reuters reports OpenAI robotics and consumer hardware head Caitlin Kalinowski resigning after a Pentagon partnership, citing concerns about surveillance and lethal autonomy. Finally, Oracle is rumored to plan up to 30,000 layoffs as AI data center financing tightens. Hashtag Trending would like to thank Meter for their support in bringing you this podcast.

Der kører en kampagne mod ChatGPT på de sociale medier i disse dage. OpenAI har valgt at lave en aftale med det amerikanske krigsministerium, som giver adgang til at bruge ChatGPT i krig. Konkurrenten Anthropic har afvist en lignende aftale med Pentagon, fordi de frygter masseovervågning af den amerikanske befolkning og brugen af automatiserede våben i krig.Anthropic udsættes for hårde sanktioner fra regeringen, mens brugerne i app-store i hobetal til gengæld dumper ChatGPT til fordel for Anthropic's model Claude.Det ligner en kamp om fremtiden. Hvilken verden skal vores efterkommere bo i?Fremtiden er lang. Medmindre vi lader nutiden gøre den kort. Beslutninger, som vi tager nu, kan gavne eller tyrannisere mange generationer efter os.Men disse generationer af ufødte har ingen stemme i vores nutid. Derfor må vi gætte eller analysere os frem til, hvad der er bedst for dem, hvilket i høj grad er som at famle rundt i et mørkt lokale med høreværn og bind for øjnene.Men så er det jo godt, at vi har kloge folk, som tænker over, hvordan man kan være en god forfader. En som fremtidige generationer vil tænke tilbage på med glæde og taknemmelighed. Sådan en tænker er den britiske filosof Roman Krznaric, der har skrevet flere bøger, men i denne udgave af Techtopia vil vi koncentrere os om bogen “The Good Ancestor” - hvordan er man en god forfader.Vi mødte ham på konferencen DLD i München.Medvirkende:Roman Krznaric, filosof og forfatterLinksRoman Krznarichttps://www.romankrznaric.com/aboutDLDhttps://www.dld-conference.com

Uit onderzoek van de Universiteit van Amsterdam blijkt dat Meta politieke advertenties voor de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen door partijen of kandidaten toestaat. Dat is in strijd met de eigenhuisregels, aangezien Meta de in februari 2024 opgestelde regels door de EU onwerkbaar vindt en het daarom een volledig verbod op politiek- en maatschappelijk getinte advertenties hanteert. Donner Bakker vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Verder in deze Tech Update: De persoon die verantwoordelijk is voor de hardwareafdeling bij OpenAI is opgestapt vanwege de deal met het Pentagon; Een man die perongeluk zevenduizend robotstofzuigers wist te hacken krijgt een beloning van dertigduizend euro.

Crude oil prices have jumped above $100 as the US and Israel intensify military operations in Iran, effectively halting traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. While President Trump touts military successes, he faces a growing "philosophical break" with a MAGA base wary of new "forever wars". Oracle and OpenAI have scrapped plans for a flagship AI data center expansion in Texas as financing negotiations stalled. Tensions rise as Colonel Chris Wyatt argues President Trump's "3D chess" is isolating the ANC by removing its international allies. Meanwhile, back home, MP Juliet Basson details a "hostile" oversight visit to Normandien Farms that saw a factory shuttered over a dust mask dispute.

In our 35th episode of This F*cking Guy, Erin and Alyssa dive deep into the past of the AI Scammer, Sam Altman. From his early tech bro days at Loopt and Y Combinator, to getting a thrill by playing “God" with AI decision-making, to acting VERY shady about the death of an OpenAI employee, this may be our most disingenuous guy yet!For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Anger directed at OpenAI is spreading after it struck a deal with the Pentagon to use its AI models in classified systems, just hours after its rival, Anthropic, refused. OpenAI said it had shared Anthropic's concerns about mass surveillance and autonomous weapons, so why did they sign? And what does this mean for other companies looking to do business with the Trump administration?  For more: Some OpenAI staff are fuming about its Pentagon deal  ---  Guests: Hadas Gold, CNN AI Correspondent & Dean Ball, Senior Fellow at The Foundation for American Innovation  Host: David Rind  Producer: Paola Ortiz  Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Photo: Photo: WH Pool Learn more about your ad choices.

Most small business owners are waiting for universities to produce the employees they need. The smart ones stopped waiting years ago — and started building their own training programs.In this episode, Chris Cooper looks at a quiet trend reshaping how companies find, develop, and keep talent: the rise of the company college. Rolex opened a tuition-free watchmaking school in Dallas, complete with a monthly stipend and a final exam in Geneva. Google built a certificate program now recognized by over 150 employers. And just this week, MasterClass launched MasterClass Executive — a 12-week, AI-powered business school built with the University of Chicago and OpenAI, taught by Ray Dalio, Mark Cuban, and Nobel Laureates.These aren't vanity projects. They're strategic solutions to a real problem: universities aren't producing job-ready graduates fast enough, and the companies that can't afford to wait are building their own pipelines.Chris shares how he did exactly this at Two-Brain Business, and breaks down a four-phase blueprint any company can follow — regardless of size or budget. You'll learn why 15-minute daily lessons outperform full-day orientations, why gamification isn't just for millennials, and why your credential matters as much as your curriculum.Your Golden Hour task this week: define one role, list 10 skills, write one 15-minute lesson. That's Module One of your Company College.Next episode: how to layer a mentorship and coaching program on top of your training — turning trained employees into future leaders.Business is good.Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/

The US military used AI tools for real-time targeting in its strikes on Iran. On this week's On the Media, what recent conflicts can tell us about AI-powered weapons and the dangerous future of warfare. Plus, lessons on democratic resilience from around the world. [01:00] Host Brooke Gladstone interviews  Siva Vaidhyanathan about how the U.S. military is using artificial intelligence in its strikes on Iran, and what can be gleaned from recent conflicts about the state of AI-powered warfare. Plus, what does accountability for war mean when AI is involved? Brooke also hears from Alan Rozenshtein, Senior Editor at Lawfare, about the Trump administration's pressure campaign on AI company Anthropic.  [33:45] Brooke sits down with Zack Beauchamp, senior correspondent at Vox, to talk about why he got fed up reporting on “democratic backsliding,” and decided to instead investigate “democratic resilience”— and what lessons exist for Americans around the world.   Further reading / watching: “Who's Deciding Where the Bombs Drop in Iran?

OpenAI just opened its largest office outside San Francisco, in downtown Bellevue, Wash. GeekWire was there on day one to tour the space. Chatting inside the OpenAI game room, we share our observations about the Mad Men-meets-Pacific Northwest aesthetic, which features open floor plans and lots of common areas, and try to figure out what it all says about OpenAI's culture. Plus, we talk with Vijaye Raji, the former Statsig CEO who is now OpenAI's CTO of applications, about Codex, infrastructure, hiring, and the evolution and growth of Silicon Valley tech giants in the region. In our final segment, it's the return of the GeekWire trivia challenge, with a question focusing on one of the earliest tech giants to establish an outpost in the Seattle area.

Today's Headlines: The first cabinet firing of Trump 2.0 has arrived. After two rough days testifying before Congress, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is out. Her replacement is Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin — a rancher, MMA fighter, and former ethics investigation subject who had to repay $40K in "mistaken" payments. So, a lateral move. DHS remains unfunded for a third week, and Democrats say swapping Noem out isn't enough. On the war front, the House voted 212-219 against a War Powers resolution that would have required Trump to seek congressional approval before continuing strikes in the Middle East. The US embassy in Kuwait has been shuttered after retaliatory strikes killed six American soldiers. Trump, meanwhile, told Axios he wants to personally pick Iran's next leader — though he noted most of his preferred candidates are already dead, which is a sentence that actually happened. In a memo reported by The Information, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei went off on the Trump administration, stating plainly that the White House's beef with his company comes down to Anthropic refusing to donate, refusing to flatter, and refusing to play along with what he called "safety theater." OpenAI, he implied, has been less principled. Elsewhere: Trump's White House ballroom plans hit a snag after 35,000+ public comments — 97% of them hostile — delayed a federal vote until next month. RFK Jr. got 50+ medical schools to adopt his nutrition curriculum framework, though notably none of the schools that already settled with the Trump administration signed on. And a new anti-corruption group sued Trump and Pam Bondi over the TikTok deal, arguing the administration ignored Congress's national security mandate to hand the app to political allies instead.

When documentary filmmaker Adam Bhala Lough set out to make a movie about OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman, he hoped to get an interview with his main character. But when that didn’t happen, Adam found a workaround — he created a chatbot version of Sam Altman. From San Francisco to India to Los Angeles, Adam takes “Sambot” and the audience on a journey through the possibilities of what can happen when you deepfake a real person, and that person becomes your friend. Karah sat down with Adam to discuss the secretive, cult-like nature of OpenAI, Adam’s relationship with “Sambot,” and whether AI chatbots are the future of friendships.
