Everything from Anthropic: the Claude models, Claude Code, its safety research and the company's progress.
Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.2 doesn't generate images the way other AI models do. Instead of computing pixels, the language model writes Python code that places hundreds of thousands of simulated brushstrokes on a virtual canvas, complete with bristle texture and paint application. A single photorealistic parking garage scene took roughly 700,000 strokes, according to Anthropic employee Jake Eaton.
Days before what could be the largest IPO in history, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called buying compute 'the deepest business dilemma' his company faces. Anthropic's commitments now total nearly $901 billion, and it's still far from clear whether future revenue will justify those costs. The planned IPO is largely meant to serve as a financial buffer against that uncertainty.
Anthropic is on track for the largest IPO ever, with orders exceeding available shares by a factor of six.
Jensen Huang resigned as CEO, president, and board member of Nvidia effective immediately, according to a statement on November 12, 2026.
OpenAI grew its quarterly revenue 50 percent to $10 billion but is still burning more cash than it brings in. Adjusted operating losses climbed to $10.9 billion, while rival Anthropic operates far more efficiently on $17 billion in revenue. To close the gap, OpenAI is now fueling a price war for enterprise customers.
Anthropic claims it used AI itself to breach Nvidia's CUDA moat. The company's in-house model Mythos reportedly ported Claude to AMD GPUs in just three days, with almost no human intervention. Anthropic now runs Claude on four chip families and aims to cut costs and reduce vendor dependencies.
Microsoft researchers have discovered “Lazarus,” a backdoor technique that can reprogram dormant neurons in an AI model, causing an otherwise normal AI agent to execute malicious commands when a hidden trigger appears. The threat is especially serious for AI agents with tool or terminal access.
Anthropic is kicking off its IPO roadshow, targeting a valuation of up to $1.02 trillion. Beyond the public offering of up to $64.4 billion, the company is securing $26 billion through a private placement with Google, Nvidia, Microsoft, and other major tech firms as anchor investors.
The company could end up being worth a hefty $1.404 trillion if its shares list at the top of the price range, on a fully diluted basis.
Anthropic confirmed on Tuesday that its IPO could be one of the biggest ever, even while falling short of previous expectations. Its IPO price is expected to be between $70.00 and $78.00 per share, which would put its valuation as high as $1.4 trillion, according to the The New York Times.
Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 arrive on Anthropic’s IPO roadshow day. How much thinking is worth paying for?
The AI company is expected to set its valuation range this week, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2 are now available on Amazon Bedrock and Claude Platform on AWS. Learn what's new in both models, why Fable 5.2 matters for your technical workloads, and how to get started building with it on Amazon Bedrock.
Anthropic is releasing Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2, its most powerful models to date, in two versions: one freely available and one reserved for verified organizations. The models solve open physics problems, show stronger cybersecurity capabilities, design functioning operating systems, and write more than 90 percent of the changes merged into Anthropic's core code, according to the company.
Anthropic is announcing two new models today: Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2, which it says are designed to take on "daunting" technical challenges. The company claims the new models show improvements in coding, reasoning, and vision, and can generate outputs faster than the 5.1 versions of the Fable and Mythos models.
Anthropic says the new models "show improvements in areas like coding, reasoning, and vision," as well as in communicating more clearly with users.
Despite the tech selloff, Anthropic is pressing ahead with its IPO at a valuation of $1.25 to $1.75 trillion, well below the hoped-for $2 trillion. The Claude developer aims to raise $80 to $100 billion before Thanksgiving. Rival OpenAI has also recently had to cut its valuation.
Anthropic is using AI to build more powerful AI. And it appears to be working remarkably well, with the company's models improving roughly twice as quickly as a year ago, with little indication of slowing down.
OpenAI has secured $11 billion in fresh capital, the first tranche of a round that values the company at $1.25 trillion. The full round could swell to $20 billion. That OpenAI is already turning to wealthy private investors hints at a saturating AI capital market and growing investor caution.
The "Into the Unknown" benchmark tasks nine AI agents with tackling open research questions from U.S. national laboratories. None of the 135 submissions meets all requirements. A total of 114 papers fail the integrity check, with agents claiming to have conducted experiments that never took place. GPT-6 Astra performs best but still doesn't meet the experts' standards.
