Anthropic has signed a six-year, $10 billion deal with Volta — a startup that's only seven months old. The compute comes from a hydro-powered data center in Norway, running Nvidia's Vera Rubin chips.
With Inference Hooks, Anthropic lets companies inspect every prompt and tool response before it reaches the model. Your own DLP server decides in real time — allow or block — across chat, Claude Code, and Cowork.
Simon Willison turned an old tweet concept into a playable browser game in one go with Claude Fable 5 — 'Raccoon Heist'. A small test that says a lot about how far one-shot coding has come.
Anthropic is hiring engineers for a 'custom silicon team' and has confirmed it: the Claude maker wants to build its own AI chip, co-designed with its next models. Samsung is reportedly in talks as the manufacturing partner.
Mariano-Florentino 'Tino' Cuéllar becomes Anthropic's first Chief Global Affairs Officer. A man who sat on the California Supreme Court and co-led the state's Frontier AI working group — now he's meant to be Anthropic's line to governments worldwide.
AWS is wiring its vulnerability scanner Continuum straight into Claude Code, Codex and Kiro. Developers trigger a scan without leaving the editor — and Continuum ranks findings by whether they are actually exploitable in real context.
Version 2.1.221 adds a Focus view that hides the tool noise behind expandable per-turn summaries. More important for security: a Bash bug that let hidden commands slip past the permission check is now closed.
After 27 years, chief scientist Jeff Dean is leaving Google to launch a startup called Discovery Loop with Sanjay Ghemawat. Demis Hassabis becomes Alphabet's Chief Scientist, and CTO Koray Kavukcuoglu takes over DeepMind. The stock fell more than 4 percent.
