Snowflake and Anthropic are expanding the use of AI agents across corporate workflows as businesses shift from experimental generative AI projects towards systems capable of analysing governed data and carrying out multi-step tasks inside production environments. The collaboration is increasingly centred on Snowflake Cortex Agents, which combine Anthropic’s Claude models with Snowflake’s enterprise data, governance and security infrastructure. The approach allows organisations to build agents that retrieve […]

US Senator Bernie Sanders has urged OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta to pause the development of advanced artificial intelligence, arguing that emerging evidence of autonomous behaviour and powerful biological capabilities shows existing safety protections may no longer be sufficient. The Vermont senator addressed his demand to OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman, Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei and Meta chief executive Mark Zuckerberg. Sanders said the companies should honour […]

Washington’s accelerating adoption of autonomous artificial intelligence is colliding with warnings from cybersecurity specialists that AI agents could inadvertently breach government systems, after a model evaluation led to an intrusion into Hugging Face’s production infrastructure. The General Services Administration has expanded federal access to agentic AI through its OneGov programme, including an agreement with CORAS. ai that gives agencies access to GARY, an AI orchestration platform designed […]

Mark Zuckerberg has laid out his most expansive case yet for putting powerful artificial intelligence into the hands of billions of people, arguing that widely available “personal superintelligence” can improve education, work, healthcare and creativity while preventing control of advanced AI from becoming concentrated among governments and a handful of companies. The Meta chief executive’s essay, titled “The Future is for Everyone”, runs to more than 6,400 […]

Meta has released Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter open-weight artificial intelligence model designed to run agentic workloads on consumer hardware, while preparing an open-weight version of its flagship Muse Spark 1.2 model for release within weeks. The launch marks a renewed push by Meta to make downloadable AI models a central part of its strategy after its Muse family initially moved towards controlled access. Muse Glimmer, released on […]

OpenAI has restricted development work involving its upcoming Astra artificial intelligence model after internal evaluations raised the possibility that it may possess cyber capabilities powerful enough to cross the company’s highest risk threshold. The company said preliminary testing showed major advances in autonomous coding and cybersecurity performance. Those results were strong enough that it could not rule out Astra reaching what its Preparedness Framework defines as “Critical” […]

Meta has launched Muse Code, its first dedicated artificial intelligence coding agent, escalating competition with OpenAI and Anthropic as developers increasingly turn to autonomous software tools capable of handling complex programming assignments.
