Observer | OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar and Anthropic’s Krishna Rao Are Racing For Compute Power by Alexandra Tremayne-Pengelly AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar and Anthropic CFO Krishna Rao, each about two years into their roles, are locked in a high‑stakes competition to secure the compute power needed for their companies’ rapid AI expansion. Both executives spend a large portion of their time negotiating chip deals—Anthropic relies on Nvidia GPUs, Google TPUs and Amazon’s Tranium, while OpenAI mixes Nvidia, AMD, Amazon, Broadcom‑built hardware and Cerebras systems—and balancing the risk of over‑investing in infrastructure against the danger of undersupplying customer demand. This capital‑intensive push has spurred massive fundraising: Anthropic closed a $750 million round at a $15 billion valuation and is eyeing a $30 billion raise that could value it near $900 billion, while OpenAI recently secured a twelve‑figure infusion and remains open to more capital. Revenues are soaring, with Anthropic’s run‑rate hitting $30 billion in April and OpenAI reporting $24 billion in annualized revenue, and both firms are planning high‑profile IPOs—Anthropic possibly by year‑end and OpenAI in the second half of 2026—underscoring compute as the key competitive advantage in the AI race.

US Top News and Analysis | What you need to know about Nvidia competitor Cerebras after wild IPO AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Cerebras Systems’ blockbuster IPO, which closed with a market cap just under $100 billion, underscores the exploding demand for AI chips that can serve as alternatives to Nvidia’s GPUs. The Silicon Valley firm builds massive custom ASICs—its WSE‑3 chip is the size of a dinner plate, about 57 times larger than the biggest GPU and contains roughly 50 times more transistors—designed for faster inference rather than the training tasks that Nvidia’s general‑purpose GPUs excel at. After the IPO, Cerebras began operating its chips inside its own data‑center cloud, positioning itself against hyperscalers and other ASIC specialists such as Groq, SambaNova, D‑Matrix and Rebellions. The offering made two of its co‑founders billionaires and paves the way for further ASIC‑focused startups to go public as the AI hardware market rapidly expands.

Variety | LISTEN: Did OpenAI Kill What Disney’s ‘Super App’ Needs Most? by Cynthia Littleton AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The article explains that Disney’s upcoming “super app” will not include the AI capabilities once planned in its now‑canceled partnership with OpenAI; the abandoned collaboration was meant to let users create short videos featuring more than 200 Disney characters—from Mickey Mouse to Luke Skywalker—but that magic has been ruled out. In Variety’s “Strictly Business” podcast, Jeremy Toeman of JWX discusses why the Sora app didn’t survive, stressing that successful AI‑driven content needs careful curation rather than a mass‑blast approach, while Disney CEO Josh D’Amaro describes his vision of evolving Disney+ into an immersive, interactive digital hub that brings together tickets, merchandise and other services.

Business Latest | The Real Losers of the Musk v. Altman Trial by Maxwell Zeff, Paresh Dave AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The article examines the broader fallout from the Musk v. Altman trial, arguing that regardless of who wins, the real losers are the employees, policymakers, and public who supported OpenAI’s original nonprofit mission. While the trial focuses on whether Elon Musk’s $38 million investment was conditioned on charitable use and whether OpenAI’s shift to a for‑profit model violated that intent, the case highlights how both Musk and Sam Altman have treated the nonprofit structure as a convenient vehicle for building the world’s leading AI lab, even as it morphed into a multibillion‑dollar company. Critics, including former researchers and nonprofit advocates, contend that the nonprofit façade no longer protects the public interest; OpenAI’s massive funding, aggressive pursuit of AGI, and legal battles over safety, liability, and copyright suggest it now operates much like any profit‑driven tech giant. The trial thus underscores a deeper tension between the declared mission of ensuring artificial general intelligence benefits humanity and the commercial realities that have come to dominate the organization.

"A new class action lawsuit accuses OpenAI of sharing data including user chat queries and personal identifying information like emails and user IDs with the tech giants — and targeted advertising behemoths — Meta and Google, without obtaining proper user consent. Filed yesterday in California, the lawsuit claims that OpenAI’s data-sharing with Google and Meta violates the California Invasion of Privacy Act, known as CIPA, as well as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act. It points specifically to OpenAI’s integrations with Meta Pixel and Google Analytics, which are data-tracking and collection tools that facilitate targeted advertisements. The data-tracking model described in the lawsuit — often referred to as “surveillance capitalism” — is the business that the modern internet is built on today. And OpenAI, like countless other tech companies, does include language in its privacy policy noting that it does collect, store, and share a range of consumer inputs and personal information." https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/openai-personal-information-meta-google #AI #GenerativeAI #OpenAI #Surveillance #Meta #Google #DataProtection #Privacy

Home - CBSNews.com | Musk flew to China near end of OpenAI trial, after judge warned he could be recalled AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Elon Musk arrived in Beijing on Wednesday while his $150 billion civil lawsuit against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman approaches its conclusion, after U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers reminded him that he remains subject to recall and could be brought back to testify at any time. Although the San Francisco civil trial does not require his continuous physical presence, the judge made clear he is not excused and must be available for further testimony. Musk flew on Air Force One with other business leaders invited by President Trump to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping, and will likely miss both the final day of testimony and the scheduled closing arguments. The suit seeks to remove Altman from OpenAI’s board, revert the organization to a nonprofit, and transfer millions of dollars to its charitable arm, while OpenAI argues Musk’s motivation is to boost his own venture, xAI.

US Top News and Analysis | Cerebras prices IPO above expected range, as Wall Street braces for AI tsunami AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Cerebras Systems, the AI‑chip maker founded in 2016, priced its Nasdaq IPO at $185 a share—above the expected range—raising at least $5.55 billion and valuing the company at roughly $56.4 billion on a fully diluted basis. The offering makes it one of the largest U.S. tech IPOs since Snowflake in 2020, and CEO Andrew Feldman’s personal stake is now worth about $1.9 billion. After a rocky path to the market, including a 2024 filing withdrawal and a shift from selling hardware to offering a cloud service, Cerebras has diversified its revenue away from a single UAE customer and secured a $20 billion deal with OpenAI for computing capacity. The company’s Wafer‑Scale Engine 3 chips promise speed and cost advantages over traditional GPUs, positioning Cerebras against cloud giants such as Google, Microsoft, Oracle and CoreWeave, while investors like Fidelity, Benchmark and Foundation Capital hold multi‑billion‑dollar stakes.

Business Latest | Everyone at the Musk v. Altman Trial Is Using Fancy Butt Cushions by Paresh Dave AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. At the Musk v. Altman trial, both plaintiffs and defense have finished presenting their cases, but the courtroom’s most noticeable feature has been the abundance of butt cushions and pillows used by participants. Hard wooden benches on the right side, reserved for OpenAI and Microsoft lawyers and executives—including CEO Sam Altman and general counsel Che Chang—have been equipped with thick, black cushions from the brand Purple, while OpenAI President Greg Brockman and his wife have relied on white throw pillows from Coop. Even an OpenAI bodyguard brought a purple handbag with extra pillows for the Brockmans, and other attendees, such as reporters and the courtroom artist, have resorted to various cushions to ease the discomfort of the long‑lasting trial. Although not a customary courtroom practice, these cushions have become a practical response to the near‑full capacity of the courtroom and the extended hours of sitting.

US Top News and Analysis | Microsoft feared being too dependent on OpenAI, Musk-Altman trial testimony reveals AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella testified in the Musk‑Altman trial that, as early as April 2022, he feared OpenAI could eclipse Microsoft much as IBM once did to Microsoft, prompting an internal email warning “I don’t want to be IBM and OpenAI to be Microsoft.” To avoid that fate, Microsoft secured deeper “agency at every layer of the stack,” negotiating IP rights and revenue‑share terms while committing more than $100 billion in investment, infrastructure and hosting for OpenAI, which now accounts for roughly 45 % of Microsoft’s commercial cloud obligations. Nadella explained that the partnership taught Microsoft how to build AI‑optimized supercomputers and that the company has been diversifying its AI strategy—hiring DeepMind co‑founder Mustafa Suleyman to lead a new AI unit, developing home‑grown models for Copilot, and partnering with rivals such as Anthropic and Musk’s xAI—yet Microsoft’s own AI‑infused products have yet to become breakout hits, leaving its stock down 16 % this year even as Azure growth continues.

US Top News and Analysis | AI-driven cyberattacks will start to be the 'new norm' in months, Palo Alto warns AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Palo Alto Networks technology chief Lee Klarich warned that businesses have only a three‑to‑five‑month window to strengthen their cybersecurity before AI‑driven exploits become the new norm. Emerging AI models such as Anthropic’s Mythos and OpenAI’s GPT‑5.5‑Cyber are making it easier for hackers to discover and weaponize unknown software vulnerabilities, prompting an urgent need for faster defensive measures, virtual patching, and industry‑wide innovation. Klarich said Palo Alto will soon roll out new capabilities to detect and mitigate these attacks and highlighted recent collaborations with firms like CrowdStrike, Amazon, Apple and JPMorgan to test and fix vulnerabilities before they are abused.

Feed: All Latest | OpenAI Brings Its Ass to Court by Maxwell Zeff, Paresh Dave AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The Musk v. Altman trial opened with OpenAI seeking to introduce a small gold statue—shaped like a donkey’s rear and engraved with “Never stop being a jackass for safety”—as physical evidence of Elon Musk’s confrontational remarks toward OpenAI futurist Joshua Achiam in 2018; the company argues the trophy underscores Musk’s aggressive push for AGI at Tesla and his alleged “jackass” language, while Musk’s team deems it irrelevant, and the judge expressed reluctance to admit it formally. The broader dispute centers on Musk’s lawsuit accusing OpenAI of misusing his $38 million donation and appropriating a charity to build an $850 billion enterprise, which OpenAI counters by saying Musk is more focused on controlling a leading AGI lab than on nonprofit funding. During testimony, Musk acknowledged it was “possible” he used the term but claimed it was not meant offensively, highlighting the clash over safety, culture, and control within the fast‑moving AI landscape.

US Top News and Analysis | Altman details Musk's OpenAI fallout, says nonprofit was 'left for dead' AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman testified in the Musk‑v‑Altman trial, asserting that Elon Musk abandoned rather than stole the nonprofit, leaving OpenAI “kind of left for dead.” Altman explained that Musk, a co‑founder, failed to keep promises about the company’s charitable mission and left the board in 2018 after contentious negotiations over funding and possible for‑profit structures, which later led to the creation of a for‑profit subsidiary now valued at over $850 billion. Altman described Musk’s push for control, including an offer to merge OpenAI with Tesla, as incompatible with the nonprofit’s mission, and recounted personal turmoil during his brief 2023 ouster by the board, which claimed he was not fully candid. The trial centers on whether Musk’s $38 million donation was misused for commercial purposes, with closing arguments slated for Thursday and an advisory jury awaiting deliberation.

Al Jazeera – Breaking News, World News and Video from Al Jazeera | Sam Altman says Elon Musk wanted 90 percent of OpenAI in high-stakes trial AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. In a U.S. federal court in Oakland, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman testified against Elon Musk’s lawsuit accusing the company of “stealing a charity” after Musk invested $38 billion under the premise of a nonprofit mission, only to see OpenAI become a for‑profit entity in 2019. Altman countered that Musk was aware of, and even sought a majority stake in, the for‑profit plan, describing him as a competitor intent on controlling the firm, while Musk, who runs the AI chatbot Grok, claimed Altman was untrustworthy and sought $150 billion in damages from OpenAI and its backer Microsoft. The trial, which could decide OpenAI’s leadership, future of products like ChatGPT, and its pending potential $1 trillion IPO, also highlighted broader public skepticism toward AI’s impact and growing political efforts to regulate the technology as it becomes a major economic and electoral issue.

NPR Topics: News | OpenAI's Sam Altman takes the stand to fend off Elon Musk's accusations he 'stole a charity' by John Ruwitch AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman testified in federal court to refute Elon Musk’s claim that he “stole a charity” by converting the nonprofit creator of ChatGPT into a for‑profit juggernaut; Musk’s lawsuit alleges that Altman, President Greg Brockman and Microsoft enriched themselves through a for‑profit subsidiary that now controls the nonprofit and seeks up to $150 billion in damages, the unwinding of the for‑profit entity, and the removal of Altman and Brockman. Altman countered that Musk tried to undermine OpenAI, launched a rival xAI, poached talent, and was not a good fit for the company, noting that the founders intended no single person to control artificial general intelligence. The three‑week trial, which pits two of tech’s biggest personalities against each other, could radically reshape OpenAI’s structure and the broader AI landscape, with closing arguments scheduled for Thursday and a decision expected soon.

The Guardian | Sam Altman defends OpenAI in courtroom showdown with Elon Musk by Nick Robins-Early AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Sam Altman testified in a federal courtroom in Oakland, defending OpenAI against Elon Musk’s lawsuit that claims Altman misled Musk, turned the nonprofit into a for‑profit, and should be removed from the company while redistributing $134 billion to OpenAI’s nonprofit arm; Altman denied that OpenAI was “Musk’s startup,” said Musk’s demand for total control made him uncomfortable, and portrayed Musk as erratic, whereas Musk’s lawyers described Altman as deceptive and untrustworthy. The high‑profile trial, which pits two of Silicon Valley’s most powerful figures against each other, is critical for OpenAI’s planned IPO at around a $1 trillion valuation, with closing arguments set for Thursday and a jury deliberation to follow.

BBC News | Sam Altman: Elon Musk said control of OpenAI should go to his children AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Sam Altman, co‑founder and CEO of OpenAI, testified that Elon Musk repeatedly pushed to gain long‑term control of the AI company, even proposing that ownership should pass to his children after his death. Musk allegedly wanted more board seats, the chief‑executive role, and suggested turning OpenAI into a for‑profit subsidiary of Tesla to secure faster financing, but Altman and fellow founders rejected the idea, saying it would threaten OpenAI’s mission to develop artificial general intelligence without any single person in charge. Musk ultimately left the organization in early 2018, halted his quarterly $5 million donations, and declined to invest when OpenAI formed a for‑profit arm in 2019. The dispute has now escalated to a court case. Read more: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czj2k2exdzlo?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=rss #SamAltman #ElonMusk #OpenAI #GregBrockman #AGI #IlyaSutskever
