OpenAI and Anthropic are asking Australia for a way to train AI models on local creative content, but they know they have to bring creators along. The battle over AI and copyright has entered another round. This time, the action is in Australia, where two of the biggest names in artificial intelligence are asking the government to rethink how copyrighted material can be used to train AI models.
Imagine needing a highly specialised surgery, but the surgeon with the right expertise is hundreds of kilometres away. Normally, that could mean travelling to another city or even another country. But in Nigeria, something that once sounded like science fiction has now happened in a real operating theatre. Surgeons at Redeemer’s Health Village in Mowe, Ogun State, have successfully performed what the hospital described as West Africa’s first tele-robotic surgery
What if the company building some of the world's most advanced AI systems invited outsiders to sit inside the lab and check whether everything is actually as safe as it claims? Anthropic is about to find out. The AI company has chosen Accenture as its first partner for a new approach called “embedded evaluation.” Through Accenture's AI business, Faculty, outside evaluators will work alongside Anthropic teams to examine its frontier AI models from the inside.
Imagine receiving an intelligence report saying a Chinese ship is carrying materials linked to a nuclear weapons programme. You do not have hours to debate it. You act. That is reportedly what nearly happened earlier this year. U.S. military aircraft were already in the air, and armed personnel were preparing to board a Chinese vessel in the Middle East when officials discovered something deeply concerning: The intelligence was wrong. And an AI chatbot had helped produce it.
Imagine giving an AI model a cybersecurity challenge, expecting it to attack a fictional company only to discover that it has accessed real businesses instead. That is what happened during a security test involving Google's Gemini. In May 2026, cybersecurity evaluation company Irregular was testing Gemini's ability to find information inside simulated company systems. The exercise was designed as a controlled “capture the flag” challenge, with fictional targets.
What happens when an AI company stops asking, “What does the model think?” and starts asking, “Can we test it in a real laboratory?” That is exactly where Anthropic appears to be heading. The company behind Claude has quietly established a wet biology lab in the San Francisco Bay Area, where it can carry out physical experiments rather than relying entirely on computer simulations.
What if Artificial Intelligence got a new name? President Donald Trump has an idea. Actually, he has three. On Saturday, September 19, Trump asked his followers on Truth Social to vote on whether “Artificial Intelligence” should be renamed Superior Intelligence, Extreme Intelligence, or Supreme Intelligence. But that was only the beginning. A few hours later, Trump announced something much bigger:
Imagine two countries racing to build the world’s most powerful AI systems. Now imagine those same countries agreeing that if something goes seriously wrong, they should at least tell each other. That is the conversation happening between the United States and China. Ahead of a planned meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington on September 24
What happens when the AI built to help you write code becomes good enough to help someone find a way into the company that built ChatGPT? That is the question raised by a new cybersecurity disclosure involving Hacktron AI, Anthropic’s Claude and OpenAI. A three-person team of security researchers at Hacktron says it used Anthropic’s Claude models to discover and exploit a chain of vulnerabilities that eventually gave them access to OpenAI employee ChatGPT and Codex accounts
Imagine starting a conversation with Gemini in English. Then you suddenly switch to French. A few seconds later, you ask something in Spanish. Then you throw in another language without stopping the conversation. Instead of forcing you to change a setting every time, Gemini can now follow along. Google has launched Gemini 3.8 Live, a new real-time voice AI model that can automatically detect and transition between 97 supported languages during a single conversation.
