Internal documents describing Anthropic's next flagship AI surfaced last week after a configuration error left thousands of unpublished assets in a publicly accessible data store. Among them was a draft blog post revealing a model called Claude Mythos and a new tier called Capybara that sits above Opus . The details: How It Leaked: A CMS misconfiguration exposed around 3,000 unpublished assets, including draft blog posts and internal content that had not been approved for release.
It is also more expensive to run.
Cybersecurity stocks have been under pressure all year on fears that new AI will disrupt the sector. Anthropic confirmed to Fortune that it is testing a new general-purpose model with meaningful advances in reasoning, coding and cybersecurity. No release date has been announced. Whether the leak was genuinely accidental or a well-timed preview is a question the company has not addressed.
How AI agents are transforming enterprise workflows AI agents are changing enterprise workflows. From knowledge work to customer experience. Unlike traditional automation, they can reason, plan, and act. Even across complex tasks using company data.
With Vectara on-premise, agents run inside your infrastructure. You keep full control over data, governance, and performance. It also supports production-ready AI. Vectara delivers value across four areas: security, compliance, predictability, and cost. Your data stays within your perimeter.
Air-gapped options are available for regulated industries like healthcare, finance, defense, and semiconductors. Download a copy Anthropic Wins Federal Injunction Against Pentagon Blacklisting A federal judge in San Francisco blocked the Trump administration's designation of Anthropic as a supply chain risk, handing the company an early legal victory in its standoff with the Pentagon. The details: The Ruling: US District Judge Rita Lin granted a preliminary injunction on Thursday, barring federal agencies from enforcing the blacklisting while the case proceeds.
The company drew two red lines: no autonomous weapons and no domestic mass surveillance.
The injunction does not resolve the underlying dispute. A parallel case is still pending in Washington DC, and the Pentagon has signalled it intends to appeal. But for now, Anthropic can continue operating across federal agencies and contractor partnerships.
Rival Chatbots Google launched new switching tools that let Gemini users import memories, preferences and full chat histories from other AI platforms. The move is a direct play to reduce the cost of leaving ChatGPT or Claude. The details: Memory Import: Gemini generates a prompt you paste into your current chatbot. That chatbot summarises what it knows about you.
You paste the summary back into Gemini and it builds a profile of your preferences, interests and personal context.
Gemini said it had surpassed 750 million monthly active users during Alphabet's Q4 earnings call. The gap is closing but ChatGPT still leads on engagement. The strategy is transparent. Google cannot win the model war on benchmarks alone, so it is removing the single biggest barrier to switching: losing months of accumulated context.
Whether users actually care enough to migrate is the open question. WSJ Exposes The Decade-Long Personal Feud Behind OpenAI and Anthropic The Wall Street Journal published a detailed investigation tracing the rivalry between Sam Altman and Dario Amodei back to a San Francisco townhouse in 2016, revealing personal grudges that are now shaping two companies valued at more than $300 billion combined. The details: Origins: Dario Amodei joined OpenAI in 2016 and became a key developer behind GPT-2 and GPT-3. Tensions with co-founder Greg Brockman and Altman grew over credit, power and the pace of development.
Amodei considered the idea tantamount to treason. A separate confrontation saw Altman allegedly accuse the Amodeis of plotting against him to the board, then deny it when confronted.
Altman told colleagues the tension was making him hate his job. The personal wounds have never healed, and the WSJ investigation makes clear they are actively steering decisions at both companies. From Pentagon contracts to Super Bowl adverts to the awkward refusal to hold hands at the India AI Summit, the grudges are not just entertaining. They are shaping the trajectory of the most consequential technology race in decades.

Try it yourself: Decksy Light Bytes Eli Lilly e ntered a $2.75B deal with Hong Kong's Insilico Medicine to license its AI-discovered drug pipeline, with 28 compounds already in development. xAI 's Ross Nordeen departed the company this week. He was the last remaining original co-founder besides Elon Musk. Google expanded its Live Translate feature to iOS, turning any pair of headphones into a real-time interpreter across 70+ languages. OpenAI launched Codex plugins that bundle skills, workplace apps and MCP servers into reusable workflows, mirroring functionality already available in Claude Code.
