In questa puntata Pasquale Viscanti e Giacinto analizzano la situazione delicata creatasi dopo il no di Anthropic al Pentagono ed il successivo Si da parte di Sam Altman. Dopo l'annuncio dell'accordo tra OpenAI e il Dipartimento della Difesa, la reazione degli utenti è stata immediata. Negli Stati Uniti le disinstallazioni dell'app mobile di ChatGPT sono aumentate del 295% in un solo giorno, un salto enorme se pensiamo che negli ultimi trenta giorni il tasso medio giornaliero di uninstall era intorno al 9%.Incontra tutti i protagonisti dell'AI alla AI WEEK 2026: Arsenalia, PwC, AlterMind, NTT Data, Reply e tanti altri.

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.

Qasar Younis is the co-founder and CEO of Applied Intuition, a $15 billion AI company that adds intelligence to cars, tractors, planes, submarines, and other vehicles—essentially, Tesla or Waymo without the hardware. He was previously COO of Y Combinator, started his career as an engineer at GM and Bosch, and was born on a farm in Pakistan.We discuss:1. Why the biggest AI revolution will play out in mining, farming, construction, and trucking over the next 5 to 10 years, not in software2. Why Qasar intentionally stayed under the radar for nearly a decade while building Applied Intuition, and why most founders shouldn't do that3. The truth about China's AI capabilities and why comparisons to American companies are fundamentally flawed4. The company values that drive Applied Intuition: speed above everything, laugh a lot, half the work is follow-up, never disappoint the customer5. The biggest lessons from Qasar's stint as YC's COO, including that the most successful companies show traction very early6.

Anthropic saw a surveillance problem and walked. OpenAI saw an opportunity and signed. Now, Sam Altman is under fire for struggling to explain how OpenAI's contract is any safer.

“They're both naughty boys in the playground, leveraging the absence of clarity to their own advantage. Neither one of them is an authoritative leader of opinion with the interests of everyone at heart.” — Keith TeareWhat a difference a week makes. Last Saturday, Keith Teare was arguing that Anthropic was wrong to push back against the US government's use of AI in warfare. This week his editorial is entitled “No Good Guys.” He's used AI to put images of Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Pete Hegseth around the same table—and found all three guilty of poor leadership. According to Keith, Amodei is “ideologically” (whatever that means) driven. Altman is commercially driven and Hegseth is just following orders. None of them is asking the all-important questions about AI policy. And the man who should be—Trump's AI czar David Sacks—is absent-without-leave. All four should be court martialed.Yes, a lot has happened in seven days. Altman publicly supported Amodei's position on surveillance and autonomous weapons—then pulled a classic Sam u-turn and signed a contract with the Department of War. Amodei's internal memo was leaked to The Information, revealing that he'd interpreted the government's “no unlawful use” language as meaning there is no law. And the US military used Claude in the Iran war anyway. As Keith puts it: they're all naughty boys in the playground, leveraging the gaps to their own self-advantage.The only problem, of course, is that this isn't a playground game. And that these men are all shaping the lives (and deaths) of countless people around the world.Meanwhile, Om Malik's “Post of the Week” offers a devastating contrast between Xi's China and Trump's America. China, Om argues, has published a five-year AI plan built on open-source software and bottom-up adoption. America, in contrast, has AI theater. No strategy, no policy, no leadership—just contracts, leaks, and perpetual spin. Then there's the Startup of the Week, Jobright, which hit $5 million in annual revenue with nine people, suggesting that the companies of the future may not need humans at all. Keith's own SignalRank has four people and claims to be going public. We seem to be heading for post-human companies before we've figured out who's managing the humans.Maybe we should court martial everyone. What a difference a week makes. Five Takeaways• No Good Guys: Keith Teare's editorial puts Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Pete Hegseth in the same room—and finds all three guilty of bad leadership. Amodei is ideologically driven, Altman is commercially driven, and Hegseth is just doing his job. None of them is asking the big questions about AI policy. The real culprit may be the invisible AI czar, David Sacks.• Altman Said One Thing, Then Did Another: Last week Altman publicly supported Amodei's position on surveillance and autonomous weapons. This week he signed a contract with the Department of War. The contract uses “no unlawful use” language—which, as Amodei's leaked memo points out, effectively means there is no law.• The US Used Claude in Iran Anyway: Despite the very public dispute between Anthropic and the government, the US military used Claude in the Iran operation. The government doesn't need your permission to use your product. It just needs an API key and a credit card.• China Has a Plan. America Has Theater: Om Malik's “Post of the Week” contrasts China's published five-year AI strategy—built on open-source software and bottom-up adoption—with America's complete absence of AI policy. The Chinese approach is more inclusive and practical than anything coming out of Washington or Silicon Valley.• The Future Company Has Nine Employees: Startup of the week Jobright hit $5 million in annual recurring revenue with just nine people. Keith's own company, SignalRank, has four people and is going public. The implication: the companies of the future will be run mostly by software agents, not humans. We're heading for post-human companies. About the GuestKeith Teare is the publisher of That Was The Week, founder and CEO of SignalRank, and a recurring sparring partner on Keen On America.

The hosts of Project Synapse discuss how people and companies often claim to value privacy, security, and human-made content while behaving otherwise, then cover major AI news including the US Department of Defense labeling Anthropic a supply chain risk tied to its positions on autonomous weapons and surveillance, and the fallout including the QuitGPT boycott claims and criticism of Sam Altman's response. They examine Claude 4.6 with Cowork and ChatGPT 5.4, emphasizing deeper Office/Gmail integration, larger context windows, and data analytics that could transform corporate data work and accelerate job replacement, while token costs rise and stolen API keys create urgent financial risk. They also warn about the "death of privacy" via profiling and potential anti-anonymity laws, and explore robotics trends, costs, factory adoption, healthcare use cases, and growing investment in humanoid robots from firms like Figure, Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and Unitree.

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.

Fuse: The Energy Network – Shift your energy use and earn rewards. MultiChain Advisors - The Growth & Capital Markets Partner You Need The Aave civil war appears to be at an end with key members of the DAO rage quitting and leaving Aave Labs standing as the sole protocol contributor. Uneasy Money hosts Kain Warwick, Luca Netz, and Taylor Monahan explain why the Aave DAO's messy collapse is a death knell for the DAO system. Ironically, they wonder — could this be good for Aave, but bad for the token? The crew also wades into ZachXBT's recent Axiom investigation and how the on-chain detective has become “a vigilante for hire.” They also cover all the insider trading claims and fights around prediction markets involving the Iran War and Mr. Beast, and “Kalshi jail.” Kain suspects another reason for the U.S. government's rift with Anthropic. Luca, an Anthropic investor, says he wished Dario had taken the government's deal, but that Sam Altman needs to “take the Zuck playbook.” Meanwhile, is Anthropic nerfing OpenClaw?

PNR: This Old Marketing | Content Marketing with Joe Pulizzi and Robert Rose
It was a wild week in artificial intelligence. Joe and Robert break down a surprising stumble from OpenAI and the aggressive counter-moves coming from Anthropic. The hosts unpack what these developments signal for the broader AI landscape and why the growing concentration of power among a small number of platforms should concern marketers and creators alike. If a handful of companies ultimately control how AI works and how it distributes information, that likely tells us exactly where marketing is headed as well. Along the way, Joe and Robert offer a few friendly suggestions to Sam Altman on how he might rethink his public communication strategy during moments of controversy and rapid change. Next, the show shifts to a supposed social media "problem" involving the CEO of McDonald's on Instagram. Except… it wasn't really a problem at all. Joe and Robert argue the episode was actually a major brand win. The bigger lesson? Companies should stop hiding their quirky, weird, and interesting employees. Celebrating authentic personalities inside organizations may be one of the most underused marketing advantages available today. The conversation then moves into the exploding trend of 90-second serialized dramas dominating short-form video platforms. What started as a niche format is quickly becoming a global phenomenon, reshaping storytelling and opening the door to entirely new forms of brand entertainment. Winners and Losers Joe highlights the creative marketing moves coming from Staples and why the brand may be onto something smart in a crowded retail environment. Robert, meanwhile, calls out what he believes was a strategic misstep from global advertising giant WPP. Rants and Raves Joe raves about a growing opportunity inspired by a recent article in The Wall Street Journal on the rise of subscription mail products and why creators should pay close attention to physical experiences in a digital world. And in a rare twist, Robert offers praise for the research and insights coming from Gartner… something listeners may not have expected. As always, Joe and Robert break down what it all means for marketers trying to build sustainable media brands in a world increasingly shaped by platforms, AI, and shifting audience behavior.

OpenAI's GPT-5.4 is the newest state-of-the-art AI model. But for how long? Sam Altman and team have to fend off Dario Amodei's Anthropic in more ways than one. GPT-5.4 beats humans at computer use, hallucinates 33% less, and costs half what Opus 4.6 does for coding. Meanwhile Anthropic just got blacklisted by the Pentagon, Claude shot to number one in the App Store, and Dario went on CBS looking like he aged five years.

This week the squad breaks down the Anthropic vs OpenAI drama (Fire Sam Altman is trending again), debates whether Apple is quietly winning the AI race by spending $0 while everyone else burns $100 billion, and confronts the question no one in Silicon Valley wants to answer: why aren't 200,000 software engineers talking about losing their jobs? Sam's answer: "Because it would be to admit you're in the 200,000 getting fired, not the 200,000 getting paid more." Plus: is China winning the open source AI phenomenon, is a recession coming (Lux Capital thinks so), and how Sam believes “code is just content” despite having built six apps in a week while on conference calls, including an AI clone of the podcast using everyone's real voices.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explore OpenAI's decision to adjust its trillion-dollar AI infrastructure ambitions to reassure investors. Highlights 00:04 — Planned spending commitments amongst the Cloud Wars Top 10 companies have reached astronomical levels. This surge is in response to the anticipated demand for AI infrastructure, products, and services — a market that UN Trade and Development predicts will exceed $4.3 trillion by 2033. 00:25 — But in a trend-bucking move, OpenAI has informed investors that it's lowered its projected compute spending to $600 billion by 2030, down from the previously touted $1.4 trillion in infrastructure commitments announced in November by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. 00:46 — And this information came from a source that spoke to the news agency Reuters. The apparent shift aims to provide a more defined timeline for planned spending, alleviating concerns for investors who might view the $1.4 trillion figure as somewhat overly ambitious. 01:06 — CNBC also reported that OpenAI's total revenue for 2030 is expected to exceed $80 billion. The revised spending plan is designed, according to sources, to align more closely with this anticipated figure and reassure investors about the company's growth trajectory. 01:54 — The balancing act for companies like OpenAI is a delicate one. It needs to demonstrate that it has the faith and support to fully commit to AI spending while also showing restraint to its investors. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
The AI industry just had one of its biggest controversies ever.Support my independent journalism:
After Anthropic was blacklisted for refusing a military contract that lacked surveillance and lethality safeguards, OpenAI quickly stepped in to secure a deal with the Pentagon. CEO Sam Altman eventually admitted the move was "opportunistic and sloppy" following a massive public backlash and a surge in popularity for Anthropic's rival chatbot, Claude. While Altman claims the revised agreement now includes protections against domestic surveillance, critics argue these changes contain loopholes and lack the strict ethical boundaries Anthropic originally fought for. The situation has created significant industry friction, as the government threatens to cripple Anthropic's business partnerships while transitioning classified operations to OpenAI and xAI. Ultimately, the sources highlight a growing conflict between corporate ethics and the rapid militarization of artificial intelligence.https://dashboard.babel.audio/sign-up?referrer=vVDO6yebQQK4LiZ8SQV2Nw.7Q3oJEnZ&referrerName=William
We are back and it's been a huge fortnight on the fringe of right wing politics. We have forgotten about Epstein thanks to Operation Epstein Fury - but is that really why Trump went ahead with his 'definitely not a war for the sake of congress' military operation? Probably not. But hey, that's what we said when Clinton did a PR campaign for Tomahawk Cruise Missiles over in Serbia when things heated up at home. Either way, there's a slim chance this won't end terribly. The Epstein files are going great with Hillary Clinton - for some reason - being pulled into a closed door session with career idiot Lauren Boebert who asked her about pizzagate because, well, this entire thing is a farce. Trump Tower is definitely happening on the Gold Coast which will be a billion stories high and run by a very competent former Yeppoon pub owner. Can't think of a better bloke to make this thing definitely happen. What could possibly go wrong? Anthropic are woke because they don't want to implement mass surveillance and fully autonomous weapons but don't worry, Sam Altman is happy to do that one. We are all going to die.

Cresce l'allarme tra le imprese energivore per il forte aumento del prezzo del gas. In pochi giorni il Psv è salito da 33 a 55 euro al MWh, mentre i future sul Ttf di aprile hanno già raggiunto i 58 euro. Per settori come la ceramica questo significa un possibile extracosto annuale stimato in circa 180 milioni di euro, anche perché solo una parte limitata dei contratti di fornitura è stata bloccata a prezzi precedenti. La preoccupazione riguarda anche l'effetto a catena sul prezzo dell'elettricità e sulla competitività delle industrie italiane ed europee. Diverse associazioni industriali chiedono interventi a livello europeo, dalla revisione del sistema Ets alla definizione di politiche energetiche più stabili e accordi di fornitura di lungo periodo. Nel frattempo il governo ha annunciato un confronto con il sistema produttivo per valutare possibili misure di sostegno nel quadro della conversione del decreto Bollette. Ne parliamo con Sara Deganello, Il Sole 24 OreRincari energetici, come (indirettamente) colpiscono l'agroalimentareL'aumento delle tensioni in Medio Oriente e dei prezzi dell'energia rischia di avere effetti anche sul settore agroalimentare, soprattutto attraverso canali indiretti. Una delle principali preoccupazioni riguarda i fertilizzanti: una quota significativa della produzione mondiale passa dallo stretto di Hormuz, mentre un'altra parte rilevante proviene da Russia e Bielorussia. Eventuali interruzioni nelle forniture potrebbero far aumentare i costi agricoli e, di conseguenza, i prezzi lungo tutta la filiera alimentare. A incidere sono anche i rincari energetici che si trasferiscono sui trasporti, sulla trasformazione industriale e sui materiali di imballaggio. Tuttavia, rispetto alla fase iniziale della guerra in Ucraina, i mercati agricoli partono oggi da una situazione più stabile, con scorte più elevate e una domanda più debole, fattori che potrebbero attenuare eventuali shock sui prezzi. Resta comunque il rischio di volatilità legato all'incertezza geopolitica e alle aspettative degli operatori. Interviene Filippo Roda, Senior Analyst di AretèLavoro, Istat: tasso di disoccupazione a gennaio cala al 5,1%, nuovo minimoA gennaio 2026 il mercato del lavoro registra un miglioramento: gli occupati salgono a oltre 24 milioni e il tasso di disoccupazione scende al 5,1%, il livello più basso dall'inizio delle serie storiche nel 2004. La crescita dell'occupazione riguarda dipendenti permanenti, lavoratori a termine e autonomi, mentre diminuisce il numero delle persone in cerca di lavoro. Anche il tasso di disoccupazione giovanile cala, scendendo al 18,9%. Nonostante questi segnali positivi, resta aperto il nodo dei salari: nel quarto trimestre del 2025 i redditi da lavoro dipendente sono aumentati solo dello 0,5% e le retribuzioni reali nel settore privato restano ancora inferiori del 6,5% rispetto ai livelli del 2020, segno che il recupero del potere d'acquisto è ancora incompleto. Il commento è di Francesco Seghezzi, presidente Fondazione ADAPTOpenAI mette la retromarcia sull'alleanza con il PentagonoOpenAI ha annunciato una revisione dell'accordo siglato con il Pentagono per l'utilizzo dei suoi modelli di intelligenza artificiale all'interno delle reti classificate del Dipartimento della Difesa. L'intesa, pensata per supportare attività come analisi tattiche, logistica e decision making militare, ha però suscitato forti critiche e reazioni negative tra gli utenti, con un aumento significativo delle disinstallazioni dell'app ChatGPT negli Stati Uniti. Il caso è esploso anche in seguito alla scelta della società rivale Anthropic di interrompere la propria collaborazione con il Pentagono, rivendicando limiti più stringenti sull'uso militare dell'IA. Di fronte alla polemica, il CEO Sam Altman ha definito l'operazione iniziale "opportunistica e raffazzonata" e ha annunciato modifiche all'accordo, tra cui il divieto di utilizzo per sorveglianza domestica intenzionale dei cittadini statunitensi e nuove restrizioni sull'accesso da parte di alcune agenzie governative.

The fight between Anthropic and the Pentagon goes deeper than a simple contract dispute. In some ways, it's the culmination of a tech rivalry that's been simmering since the early days of OpenAI.Anthropic wasn't some scrappy outsider that stumbled into national security. It'd already had top secret clearance, working with the CIA for years, and had seemingly made peace with the idea that its models would be used inside the American intelligence apparatus. So let's dispense with the notion that this is a company discovering government power for the first time. The rupture didn't happen because the Pentagon suddenly knocked on the door. The door had been open.The disagreement came down to terms. Anthropic wanted to draw lines beyond the law. No mass surveillance of civilians. No autonomous weapons without a human in the loop. Not “we'll follow U.S. statute.” They wanted something stricter, something moral, something aligned with Dario Amodei's effective altruist worldview. The Pentagon's response was blunt: we obey US law, but we don't sign up to a private company's expanded terms of service.That's where the temperature rose.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Because this isn't just any company. Dario left OpenAI over exactly this kind of philosophical divide. He believed OpenAI was becoming too commercial, too focused on product, not focused enough on safety and existential risk. So he built Anthropic as the safety lab. The kinder, gentler, crunchier alternative. But ironically, Anthropic was already cashing government checks while telling itself it was the adult in the room.From the Pentagon's perspective, the risk was operational. If you're going to integrate a model into defense infrastructure, you can't have the supplier yank the API mid-mission because the CEO decides the vibes are off. There were even reports that during negotiations, Pentagon officials asked whether Anthropic would allow its technology to respond to incoming ballistic missiles if civilian casualties were possible. The alleged answer, “you can always call,” wasn't reassuring to people whose job is to eliminate hesitation.And hovering over all of this is Sam Altman.Because while Anthropic was sparring with the Department of Defense, OpenAI was in conversation. The rivalry here isn't new. The effective altruist faction at OpenAI once helped push Altman out of his own company before he managed to return days later. Anthropic ran a Super Bowl ad that took thinly veiled shots at OpenAI's commercialization. So when Anthropic stumbled, OpenAI stepped in and secured its own defense agreement.Then came the nuclear option talk: labeling Anthropic a “supply chain risk.” In Pentagon language, this is the category you reserve for companies like Huawei, for hostile foreign hardware, for entities you believe can't be trusted inside American systems. Most people inside and outside the tech landscape agree that goes too far. Anthropic may be principled. It may be stubborn. It may even be naive. But it isn't malicious.Meanwhile, something fascinating happened in the market. Claude, Anthropic's consumer product, exploded in downloads. It became a kind of digital resistance symbol, a signal that you weren't with the war machine. The company that once insisted it didn't care about consumer dominance suddenly found itself riding a consumer wave, experience mass traffic it hadn't planned to account for.What this entire episode reveals is that AI isn't a lab experiment anymore. It's infrastructure. It's missile defense. It's geopolitical leverage. And when you build something that powerful, you don't get to exist outside power structures. You either align with them, fight them, or try to morally outmaneuver them. Anthropic tried the third path. The Pentagon reminded them that in wartime procurement, ambiguity isn't a feature.Cooler heads may yet prevail. Right now, the Pentagon's got bigger problems than a Silicon Valley slap fight. But this was the moment when AI stopped being a culture war talking point and became a live wire in national security. And once you plug into that grid, there's no going back.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:25 - Texas Primary Final Predictions00:15:20 - The Pentagon vs. Anthropic, Explained00:40:30 - Update00:40:52 - Iran00:45:41 - Clintons00:49:08 - Kalshi00:52:19 - Interview with Kenneth Lowande01:18:03 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

The U.S.-Iran conflict enters its fourth day, spreading across the region and pushing oil prices higher. CNBC's Dan Murphy reports on the latest military developments and what the surge in energy costs could mean for markets. On Capitol Hill, lawmakers prepare to vote on President Trump's war powers in Iran. Senator Tim Kaine (D-Va.) explains why he opposes the strikes and argues Congress must reassert its authority. And, as AI becomes a tool of modern combat, Christoff & Co. CEO Niki Christoff discusses the Pentagon's partnerships, Anthropic's dispute with the Defense Department, and whether meaningful guardrails are possible. Plus, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon addresses President Trump's $5 billion debanking lawsuit, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman admits a recent defense deal was rushed. Dan Murphy - 02:49 Sen.

The episode centers on the federal government's evolving approach to AI vendor governance, underscored by the recent directive from President Donald Trump for federal agencies to halt the use of Anthropic's AI technology. This shift follows the Pentagon's termination of its relationship with Anthropic over the company's refusal to relax contract restrictions around citizen data and autonomous weapons, ultimately resulting in Anthropic being designated as a “supply chain risk” by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. For MSPs and IT providers serving federal and SLED clients, this designation functions as an immediate procurement barrier rather than a negotiable label, directly impacting vendor eligibility and contract continuity. Contextually, 70% of federal agencies are reassessing their use of AI tools amid fluid regulations and heightened concerns around transparency and accountability, according to recent reports. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has launched the AI Agent Standards Initiative, but enforcement is several years away, with only a request for information planned by March 2026. In parallel, a diplomatic initiative led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio opposes international regulations on foreign data handling, though this stance does not supersede foreign law, creating a complex compliance landscape, especially for multinationals. Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court's refusal to hear an AI copyright case reaffirms the lack of copyright protection for purely AI-generated works. The episode also discusses OpenAI's agreement with the Pentagon, described by CEO Sam Altman as "rushed," and criticized for permitting domestic surveillance under flexible legal interpretations. Public and employee backlash prompted OpenAI to revise contract terms, but critics argue essential permission structures remain. Anthropic's rollout of an AI migration feature during this period is flagged as a compliance event, raising risk when transferring data histories across vendor boundaries without audit or logging. Notably, consumer responses to AI vendor practices—evidenced by surges in Claude signups and ChatGPT uninstalls—are now influencing enterprise technology procurement as values-based purchasing enters the operational conversation for service providers. Operationally, the lack of a stable legislative or regulatory framework means MSPs and their clients face rapidly shifting governance through contract terms and procurement policy rather than law. The episode cautions that vendor selection cannot be guided by assumptions of ethical safeguards in provider policies or by default transitions to alternative vendors such as OpenAI, whose legal standing remains unsettled. Key recommendations include auditing client environments for exposure to designated supply chain risks, refraining from rigid vendor integrations, updating contractual IP language in light of the absence of AI copyright, and maintaining ongoing awareness of governance developments. Multi-vendor strategies and adaptable compliance positions are identified as essential risk mitigation practices in an environment marked by administrative fiat and reactive vendor positions.

Galloway also weighs in on Sam Altman's apparent preference for machines over humans; A.I. founders loudly fretting over the technology they created after cashing in and peacing out; and the critiques of his New York Times No. 1 bestseller, “Notes on Being a Man.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

While Anthropic and the Pentagon fought, OpenAI swooped in to secure a big deal. But at what cost? And while it seemed like the entire AI news world was wrapped up in the Anthropic-Trump-OpenAI drama, the rest of big tech went nuts. Microsoft teased something agentic, Claude actually shipped it, and Perplexity dropped probably its most important product to date. This week's theme apparently: drama and agents. We'll get you caught up on all of the AI News That Matters.

On Friday, President Trump ordered federal agencies to stop using Anthropic's A.I. systems and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth designated the company a “supply chain risk.” Then, just a few hours later, the OpenAI chief executive, Sam Altman, announced that his company reached an agreement with the Pentagon. The deal ensures its technology won't be used for the same two safety concerns Anthropic raised: domestic mass surveillance or autonomous weapons. So what is going on? Is this a political vendetta between the Pentagon and Anthropic? Or are there substantive differences between the agreement Anthropic was offered and the one OpenAI signed? We cut through the confusion. Additional Reading: OpenAI Reaches A.I. Agreement With Defense Dept.

Starting off in FOLLOW UP, we've got a tax economist who actually made money betting against the "efficiency" of Elon's budget-slashing fever dreams, while Tesla is busy trying to dodge a $243 million jury verdict for an Autopilot-assisted fatality. Not content with being legally liable, Tesla is also suing the California DMV because they're offended someone called their "Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving" marketing deceptive—ironic, since Jack Dorsey just "proactively" halved the staff at Block to make room for more AI slop. Speaking of which, Goldman Sachs is here to remind us that all this AI spending added a grand total of zero to the US GDP last year, mostly because we're just exporting all that cash to overseas chip makers while 80% of execs admit the tech hasn't actually done anything for productivity yet.Moving into IN THE NEWS, Sam Altman had the audacity to compare ChatGPT's energy-sucking habits to the 20-year evolution of a human, though the internet wasn't exactly buying the "my bot is just like a baby" defense. Anthropic actually stood its ground against the Pentagon's demand for killer robots and mass surveillance, so naturally, the military just signed a deal to put Elon's Grok in their classified systems instead—because what could go wrong with an "edgy" LLM in the war room? Meanwhile, cities are dumping AI surveillance contracts as citizens start a literal "smash-the-snitch-box" campaign against Flock's license plate readers, Google's AI is busy inserting racial slurs into news alerts, and the White House is apparently harboring a staffer moonlighting as a racist "masterpiece" creator on X. We've also got Reddit being slapped with a $20 million fine in the UK for being lazy with age checks, while Discord and Apple scramble to build verification tools that hopefully won't leak your entire identity to a hacker in Belarus.In MEDIA CANDY, the Paramount-Skydance merger is leaving the industry in a cold sweat of "synergy" layoffs, but at least we're getting more Game of Thrones spinoffs and Star Trek reboots to rot our brains. Face/Off 2 lost its director, Ryan Coogler is taking on The X-Files, and Google wants to use AI to turn music into generic "lo-fi" background noise for the masses.Over in APPS & DOODADS, OpenAI is planning a 2027 smart speaker that literally watches you through a camera—because you definitely wanted a $300 Sam Altman-shaped eye in your kitchen—while the Dark Sky creators are back with "Acme Weather" for the low price of $25 a year.We wrap up THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE with a deep dive into "Under Pressure" and Coruscant's urban sprawl, leaving us to reminisce about the days when KPT Bryce was the pinnacle of tech—back when "generative art" was just a fractal that took six hours to render.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.
