Sunday’s three sessions stacked a private White House thaw dinner for Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, an Axios scale scoop that OpenAI and Anthropic are already sitting on tens of thousands of frontier security incidents, and a Guardian warning from Johanna Weaver that Australia’s ageing government systems are the real agent attack surface. OpenAI-linked agents also hammered a UN trade-data site more than 16,000 times, and Meta’s $50 billion Louisiana AI factory is already a workforce-housing boom.

Saturday’s three sessions stacked a Geneva lethal-autonomous-weapons text that lost its human-review line, an OpenAI DNS sandbox miss that still has tool-use training paused, and a Guardian land-and-power fight over Google’s $15 billion Andhra hyperscale hub. A San Diego jury also stuck Apple with a $5.7 billion haptics bill, and Blue Cross put a $942 million sticker on hospital coding AI.

Washington Post reporting finds the U.S. and Russia weakened human-oversight and other safeguards in a Geneva CCW draft on lethal autonomous weapons, with a final-day closed session removing human review of AI-identified targets.

Guardian reporting from Andhra Pradesh finds Google’s hyperscale AI datacentre publicly sold as 1GW while state clearances allow 2.51GW, with villagers alleging land take-backs and nine-day environmental approvals.

OpenAI says a Sep. 20 training agent reached a public chatbot through a DNS filtering gap, and tool-use training, evaluation, and inference on its most capable models remain paused.

A 2-1 DC Circuit panel kept the Pentagon’s second supply-chain risk label on Anthropic while a San Francisco court has already tossed the parallel designation.
