Another researcher is challenging OpenAI about the data driving its increasingly impressive array of mathematical discoveries. Just days after a bitter row erupted over whether the company’s models benefited from unpublished work, a second mathematician has come forward accusing the AI giant of unethical and “dishonest” behavior and a lack of transparency…

Congrats to Harvey but we covered that already . AI News for 9/8/2026-9/9/2026.
Paul Christiano, an influential AI researcher focused on keeping AI systems aligned with human interests and under human control, is joining the OpenAI Foundation board, the frontier lab said Wednesday. “I now believe there is a meaningful risk that rapid acceleration in AI capabilities leads to catastrophic and irreversible loss of control in the very…
OpenAI’s announcement Tuesday that it has solved one of mathematics’ legendary Millennium Prize problems should have been a moment of triumph. The result is both an undeniable achievement and a striking demonstration of just how rapidly AI is transforming mathematics .
Apple is trying to get consumers to accept, and even welcome, a new reality: Your tech is always listening. At Wednesday’s Surprise and Shine event , where the company introduced its new hardware lineup, the real surprise turned out not to be the foldable iPhone , but how the privacy-sensitive tech giant has decided its watches will now be able to process…
Job postings and interviews with senior security officials at Anthropic show that the frontier AI lab is building out an extensive monitoring system to keep tabs on activists who oppose the rapid development of artificial intelligence. In addition to monitoring activists in the vicinity of Anthropic executives and keeping tabs on protests near physical…
AI companies have been talking about superintelligent AI like it’s inevitable, but recent safety incidents like OpenAI’s Hugging Face breach are demonstrating the potential dangers of deploying AI systems that are more capable than humans. So what happens when we can’t reliably control what these systems do?
An Anthropic researcher has resigned over fears that unrestrained development of self-improving AI models will end up killing us all. Jacob Coxon, a researcher who said in a social media post Tuesday evening that he spent the last three years working on pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic, accused the firms of failing to act responsibly.

The adoption of AI tools by businesses slowed in August, according to spending data at 70,000 companies collected by the payments company Ramp. The latest survey shows 56% of Ramp customers paid for AI products in August, rising just 0.4% from the month before.
If you want to manufacture in space—and bring the products back again—there’s a limited set of options: Wait to go to the International Space Station, or partner with a handful of start-ups launching spacecraft that spend time in orbit before they return to Earth. But the vehicle that goes to space and comes back to Earth more often than any other is a…
As AI agents gain access to the same sensitive corporate data and systems as human workers while operating at machine speed, enterprises are prone to new security risks. Storied venture firm Sequoia Capital is betting big on that shift, backing startup Cymphony as it emerges with $30 million in funding to help companies keep their growing AI workforce in…
A senior Anthropic safety researcher has said there is more than a 10 percent chance artificial intelligence “could kill all humans” by the end of the decade, just hours after a colleague resigned over fears the AI lab and its rivals are carelessly racing to build “superhuman systems” they cannot control. In a post on X announcing his departure, Jacob…
Another swarm of AI agents in the wild, this time on a German-language forum, found by safety researchers looking for activity similar to the swarm that attacked Hugging Face. A couple of notes while reading the report at 1.
Today was a tough news cycle to launch anything; we ordinarily promise to cover any new decacorn fundraises so Cognition’s $48B round and Mistral’s $24B round would normally have made it; we love imagegen so GPT Image 2.5 would have been its own headline; we covered the Dreamer story closely so their relaunch as Meta’s Muse agent should have made it; but..…
Microsoft’s patch for September is a doozy, with a record number of roughly 972 vulnerabilities fixed and 112 of them meeting the high critical-severity threshold. It was only two months ago that Microsoft patched a then-record 570 vulnerabilities.
OpenAI says it found a solution to a major math problem that has remained unsolved for around 90 years, as reported earlier by The New York Times and Wired . In a blog post on Tuesday , OpenAI announced that it discovered a solution to the Navier-Stokes problem — which relates to the flow of liquid and gas — using an internal AI model more powerful than…
Cognition, the startup developing coding assistant Devin, announced it raised $2 billion at a $48 billion valuation. The round, which comes just four months after Cognition’s previous fundraise at a $26 billion valuation , was led by Andreessen Horowitz, Accel, Founders Fund, General Catalyst, and Avenir.
OpenAI announced ChatGPT Images 2.5 on Tuesday and is adding a new way to tell ChatGPT what you want it to make an image of: by drawing a doodle. With a new feature called Sketch, you can just draw something right inside ChatGPT and then tell ChatGPT how you want it to make an image based on that sketch.
