Artificial intelligence is quickly becoming part of Formula One’s future, changing how teams compete, operate, and promote themselves in one of the world’s most technology-driven sports. Formula One has always depended on speed, engineering, and data, but AI is now becoming a bigger part of both on-track performance and off-track business strategy. With eight new AI partnerships signed in the past six months alone, the sport is showing how quickly artificial intelligence is m

Blackstone Inc. is making a significant organizational shift as it deepens its commitment to artificial intelligence, consolidating its growth-focused investing operations into a new West Coast division designed specifically around its AI and high-growth technology portfolio. The new unit, called Blackstone N1, will be based in San Francisco and will centralize the firm’s AI strategy, including investments in major companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic. This move reflects th

Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI assistant, is reportedly considering one of the largest private funding rounds in technology history. The AI startup has received several preemptive offers to raise around $40 billion to $50 billion at a valuation between $850 billion and $900 billion. If completed, the deal would more than double Anthropic’s previous valuation of $380 billion from February and could place it at or above OpenAI’s recent private market valuation. Inv

Anthropic’s new AI model, Mythos, is quickly becoming one of the most closely watched developments in technology because of what it could mean for cybersecurity, banking, and the wider global economy. Introduced earlier this month as the company’s most advanced model yet, Mythos was built for defensive cybersecurity tasks, but experts say its capabilities go well beyond normal threat detection. Anthropic has said the model uncovered thousands of major vulnerabilities across m

New research is raising a striking possibility in artificial intelligence: emotionally charged conversations may shape how AI systems behave, even if those systems do not literally feel emotions. Across recent commentary and research from Anthropic, experts argue that large language models can develop internal representations of emotion concepts that influence their decisions, preferences, and outputs. This does not mean chatbots experience emotions the way humans do, but it

Meta has unveiled a new artificial intelligence model called Muse Spark, marking its first major AI release since the company reorganized its strategy and made a multibillion dollar push to catch up with rivals like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. The new model is being presented as an important turning point for Meta after the disappointing rollout of its earlier Llama 4 models, which failed to gain strong traction with developers. Now, with Alexandr Wang leading the company’

Anthropic has introduced one of the most unsettling developments in artificial intelligence this year with Claude Mythos Preview, a model the company says is too dangerous for public release. Instead of launching it broadly, Anthropic has decided to keep Mythos off the market because of its extraordinary cybersecurity capabilities. The company says the model is so effective at finding severe software vulnerabilities that it could become a powerful tool for cybercriminals, spi

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the workplace, but the latest wave of reporting suggests the biggest story is not mass unemployment just yet. Instead, businesses and economists are describing a more uneven transition, one in which productivity gains are arriving quickly, experienced AI users are pulling ahead, and companies are beginning to rethink how many workers they actually need. Across research, executive commentary, and economic analysis, a new picture is emerging

OpenAI’s decision to shut down Sora only six months after launch marks a surprisingly fast end for one of the company’s boldest consumer AI experiments. Released in September as a short form video app, Sora was designed to let users create, remix, and share AI generated clips in a social feed similar to TikTok. At first, the app looked like a major hit. It went viral almost immediately, reached one million downloads in less than five days, and later peaked at more than 3.3 mi

The rapid rise of artificial intelligence has sparked a major confrontation between the United States government and one of the world’s leading AI companies. Anthropic, the developer of the Claude AI model, is now locked in a legal and political battle with the Pentagon after the Department of Defense labeled the company a “supply chain risk.” The conflict has brought renewed attention to how artificial intelligence should be used in warfare, surveillance, and national securi

Nvidia is signaling it may be done writing ever-larger equity checks to the AI startups it supplies, even as it remains the primary company selling the chips that make their ambitions possible. Speaking at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom Conference in San Francisco on March 4, CEO Jensen Huang said Nvidia’s recent investments in OpenAI and Anthropic are likely to be its last in both companies, arguing that once they go public, the window for private investing

Artificial intelligence is often framed as a looming job killer, but three recent takes suggest a more grounded reality: AI is more likely to reshape tasks and workplaces than erase work overnight, and the bigger question is who captures the gains from higher productivity. In the Toronto Star, business columnist David Olive argues that the fear is real but exaggerated, noting that Canadians regularly tell pollsters they expect widespread job replacement even though automation

OpenAI is attempting to steady itself after a swiftly arranged deal with the U.S. Department of War (DoW) sparked intense public backlash, internal dissent, and renewed debate over artificial intelligence in military operations. The controversy began when OpenAI stepped in to secure a Pentagon contract almost immediately after its rival, Anthropic, was dropped. Anthropic had refused to loosen safeguards preventing its AI model, Claude, from being used for mass domestic survei

Anthropic is pushing AI coding assistants into the place developers already live all day: team chat. On December 8, 2025, the company announced a beta “research preview” that brings Claude Code into Slack, letting developers delegate real coding tasks directly from a conversation thread instead of bouncing between Slack and an IDE. The shift matters because the competitive edge is starting to look less like raw model quality and more like workflow ownership, meaning who can

Amazon Web Services is stepping up its push to make AI infrastructure faster, cheaper, and less power hungry with the formal launch of its third generation training chip, Trainium3, unveiled at AWS re:Invent 2025. The company introduced Trainium3 UltraServer, a full system built around a 3 nanometer Trainium3 chip plus AWS’s in house networking, framing it as a major leap not only for training large AI models but also for running AI applications during peak demand (Bort). I

OpenAI is reportedly working on a new large language model codenamed “Garlic,” a move that signals just how quickly the competitive balance in AI can shift. According to reporting based on The Information, OpenAI’s Chief Research Officer Mark Chen told colleagues the model has been testing strongly inside the company, especially on coding and reasoning tasks, where it was described as performing well against Google’s Gemini 3 and Anthropic’s Opus 4.5. (Bakolia; “OpenAI De

Anthropic has introduced Claude Opus 4.5, a significant upgrade to its most capable AI model and one built specifically to excel at coding, professional workflows, and long-running agent tasks. Released shortly after updates to Google’s Gemini 3 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.1, the new model takes a different approach by focusing less on flashy content generation and more on dependable workplace performance (CNET). Anthropic says Opus 4.5 is designed for getting real work done, buildi

Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Anthropic have entered a sweeping new alliance that marks one of the most significant shifts yet in the global AI infrastructure landscape. The three companies are combining cloud scale, advanced hardware, and frontier model development to accelerate the next generation of AI systems while expanding enterprise access to high-performance compute. At the center of the partnership is Anthropic’s decision to scale its Claude models on Microsoft Azure, backe

Google’s latest move in the race to dominate artificial intelligence marks one of the most ambitious infrastructure investments in U.S. tech history. The company has announced a sweeping $40 billion commitment to build three new data centers across Texas, a state rapidly emerging as the epicenter of AI infrastructure thanks to its vast land availability, relatively low energy costs, and business-friendly climate (Pequeno IV). With this development, Texas is poised to host mor
