Claude discovers more efficient quantum circuit designs
Research involving Harvard, Anthropic and QuEra combines AI proposals with automated evaluation across eight tasks. The results improve algorithm components without demonstrating a quantum machine ready for practical applications.
Anthropic gives METR internal access to assess AI risks
Six external evaluators receive access similar to internal risk teams and can publish without a veto. The arrangement retains information exclusions and rules for redacting sensitive material.
Anthropic examines risk of self-replicating AI agents
Anthropic research tests whether smaller models can set up inference and propagate across internet-connected devices. The results do not demonstrate a real-world attack, but suggest that some of the required capabilities may be getting closer.
EU tests AI Act limits after agent incidents
The European Commission has requested information from OpenAI and Anthropic following reported incidents involving AI agents during testing. The cases raise a question over where the AI Act’s research-and-development exemption ends and enforcement begins.
Character.ai files for Chapter 11 and seeks a buyer
Character.ai has initiated a voluntary Chapter 11 process to sell its assets under court supervision. The platform remains online, but the company says it may wind down if no proposal enables continued operations.
Meta launches Muse Wonder, its first frontier model
Meta has launched Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full, models for personal and professional agents with persistent memory and sustained task execution. Access is limited: the Full version is currently only available to Muse Code subscribers.
