Chinese military researchers used outputs from OpenAI and Anthropic AI models to train domestic defence AI systems, according to a review of over 80 Chinese academic papers and patents. The finding deepens pressure on US regulators to extend export controls beyond chips to AI model outputs.
OpenAI unveiled GPT-Red, an AI tool that automates cyberattack simulations to harden its own models against real-world hackers. Separately, US heat pump sales outpaced natural-gas furnaces by 32 percent in Q1 2026, even after a key federal tax credit for the appliances expired.
Anthropic is weighing a new fundraising round that could value the AI startup at close to $1 trillion, per the Financial Times. If completed, it would make Anthropic the highest-valued AI startup in the world, well above OpenAI's $300 billion valuation set in early 2025.
OpenAI's former chief technology officer testified in a legal proceeding that CEO Sam Altman sowed chaos and distrust among the company's top executives. The public testimony adds to existing governance concerns about OpenAI at a time when the company is raising capital and expanding commercially.
Nasdaq 100 futures dropped 0.6% after the Wall Street Journal reported OpenAI missed its user and sales targets, rattling AI-driven tech valuations. Crude oil crossing $110 a barrel added pressure by raising inflation and margin concerns across the broader market.
The Pentagon has cleared OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, xAI, and startup Reflection to provide AI tools for classified use, while dropping Anthropic over a supply-chain risk designation.
OpenAI announced a multi-year strategic partnership with Amazon and AWS on Monday, bringing its latest AI models to AWS customers. The deal follows OpenAI and Microsoft revising their arrangement to a non-exclusive structure, freeing OpenAI to work with other cloud providers.
Microsoft is losing exclusive access to OpenAI's technology, ending a preferential arrangement that underpinned its AI push across Azure, Copilot, and Bing. Other companies can now potentially access OpenAI models on equal terms, increasing competition in AI cloud services.
OpenAI has ended its exclusive cloud deal with Microsoft, opening the door to partnerships with Amazon and Google. The change lets OpenAI spread its computing workloads across competing cloud platforms, potentially cutting costs and boosting its negotiating power. Formal deals with AWS and Google Cloud are expected to
OpenAI is capping the revenue share payments it makes to Microsoft, reshaping the financial terms of their partnership. The change reduces Microsoft's long-term claim on OpenAI's revenues, which could affect how investors value both companies. The shift follows OpenAI's move toward a for-profit structure announced last
Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI and Sam Altman goes to trial this week, with a jury set to issue an advisory verdict on claims of fraud and breach of charitable trust. The outcome could block OpenAI's IPO, force leadership changes, or alter its corporate structure. OpenAI is valued at over $850 billion and aims to
Microsoft and OpenAI have ended their exclusive deal and revenue-sharing arrangement, unwinding a core part of their multi-billion dollar partnership. OpenAI can now distribute its models through other cloud providers and partners, reducing Microsoft's privileged commercial position. The full terms of any remaining
A trial opening this week will decide whether OpenAI, under Sam Altman, has illegally abandoned its nonprofit mission by building a for-profit arm. A Musk win could block OpenAI's commercial expansion and remove Altman from the board. The outcome may reshape how AI labs raise and deploy capital.
OpenAI and Microsoft have amended their partnership, ending Microsoft's exclusive rights to host and distribute OpenAI's models. Azure retains preferred cloud status through 2032, but OpenAI can now work with any cloud provider. The revenue share Microsoft receives is capped and guaranteed only through 2030.
The US State Department has sent a global diplomatic cable urging foreign governments to treat Chinese AI firms, including DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax, as risks tied to alleged unauthorised distillation of US AI models. The move raises pressure on China just weeks before Trump is set to meet Xi Jinping in
OpenAI has released GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.5 Pro via its API, giving developers and businesses direct access to the new models. API availability is central to OpenAI's revenue model, making adoption rates a key indicator of commercial momentum.
Kevin Weil, OpenAI's chief product officer and former Instagram VP, is departing the company. OpenAI is simultaneously folding the AI science application he led into its Codex product line, consolidating two separate tracks. No successor has been named.
OpenAI updated its desktop coding platform Codex with computer use, image generation, native web access, and personalization tools. The additions meaningfully expand Codex beyond code generation into a broader development workflow tool. The rollout begins on macOS, with Windows and IDE support scheduled to follow.
OpenAI released a major Codex update that enables the AI agent to operate computers directly, use everyday tools, generate images, and learn from past actions. The upgrade positions Codex as a direct rival to Anthropic's Claude Code in the fast-growing autonomous agent category.
OpenAI published a technical post framing Codex as a general-purpose reasoning engine applicable well beyond code generation. The move repositions Codex as a direct competitor to broader LLM deployments, intensifying pressure on Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and Meta in enterprise AI. Developer community engagement was
