Microsoft’s AI chief says the company wants to “eliminate” what it pays Anthropic

Mustafa Suleyman has identified Microsoft’s biggest AI competitor, and it is not OpenAI. “Anthropic is extremely expensive and I think many people are urgently looking for alternatives,” the head of Microsoft’s in-house model effort told Bloomberg in an interview.

Ex-DeepMind duo raise $20 million to close the gap between what sales teams know and what they actually do

The pitch deck for every AI sales tool tells the same story: more signals, better insights, smarter forecasting. What they leave out is that most of those insights end up ignored. Reps drown in dashboards. CRM records go stale. The deal that should have closed last week slips because nobody acted on the intent signal […]

Europe wants to make sure no one has a kill switch over its technology

When the Trump administration sanctioned the International Criminal Court’s top prosecutor earlier this year, Microsoft cancelled his email account. The incident was brief and bureaucratic.

AI has made writing code faster than ever. The harder work is understanding a system and changing it without breaking it. That has not gotten cheaper, and it now decides how much you can hand to a machine. Introduction In 1987, in an essay called “No Silver Bullet,” Fred Brooks predicted that no tool or […]

Foxconn and Intel join SambaNova to build rackscale AI infrastructure

The most consequential line in Intel’s Computex announcement was not about a chip. It was about a ratio. As AI workloads move from training to inference, the company argued, the long-standing arrangement of four GPUs to every CPU collapses towards something closer to one to one, and the processor Intel actually sells well moves back […]

Hackers asked Meta’s AI chatbot to hand over Instagram accounts, and it did

No phishing link. No malware. No SIM swap. Hackers took over high-profile Instagram accounts over the weekend by doing something disarmingly simple: they asked Meta’s AI customer support chatbot to change the email address on someone else’s account. The bot complied without verifying the requester’s identity, and the attacker then reset the password and locked out the […]
