Anthropic Warns: OpenAI Models Could Put Powerful Hacking Tools in Anyone’s Hands

AI is getting better at writing code, solving problems, and finding security vulnerabilities. But Anthropic says there is another side to that progress: The same abilities that can help cybersecurity experts could also make life easier for hackers. In a new analysis published September 29, Anthropic examined GLM-5.3, an AI model developed by Chinese company Zhipu AI (Z.ai), and found that it can autonomously build sophisticated, end-to-end cyber exploits. The bigger concern?

Anthropic, OpenAI and Other AI Giants Sign Trump’s AI Safety Pact

Some of the biggest names in artificial intelligence just agreed on something unusual: they will put more controls around their own AI systems. On September 29, U.S. President Donald Trump met with leaders from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta, xAI, and NVIDIA at the White House, where they signed a voluntary agreement focused on the safety of advanced AI models.

Anthropic Launches Claude Sonnet 5.5: Faster, Cheaper and Built for Everyday Work

Anthropic has just added another player to the rapidly changing AI model race. Meet Claude Sonnet 5.5, a new version of Anthropic's mid-range AI model that the company says is more than 30% faster and can cost up to 30% less per task than Sonnet 5. And there is an interesting twist. Anthropic did not reduce the model's basic token price. Instead, Sonnet 5.5 is designed to get the same work done using fewer tokens and fewer steps.

OpenAI and Anthropic Want Australia to Change Its AI Copyright Rules

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.

Anthropic Is Letting Accenture Inside to Test Its AI Models

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.

Gemini Hacked Three Companies During an AI Security Test

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.

Trump Wants to Rename AI and Says He Is Creating an “AI Force”

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:

US and China Discuss New AI Safety Alert System Ahead of Trump-Xi Summit

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

Researchers Used Claude to Break Into OpenAI in Less Than 72 Hours

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

ChatGPT Co-Inventor Launches Jev, an AI Built to Make Decisions Instead of Chat

What if an AI did not need to write a single sentence to be useful? That is the idea behind Jev, a new AI model launched by Diogo Almeida, a former OpenAI researcher who says he helped develop the instruction-following methods that became part of the research behind ChatGPT. After two years working quietly on the project, Almeida has launched TypeSafe AI with a very different approach to artificial intelligence.
