Friday noon ran Greg Lui’s alleged $300 million Nvidia chip smuggle and Anthropic’s IPO risk language. Friday evening locked Apple’s Full Disk Access crackdown on AI agents, then never shipped. Overnight, OpenAI Safety Systems leader David Robinson resigned, McKinsey put an 11 million career-switch number on the table, and Sanders and AOC filed a Ban Flock Act.

Greg Lui allegedly routed A100 and H100 servers through Malaysia and Singapore. The Register and Engadget lay out the $300M case and the due-diligence fight around Nvidia.

The company says it has privately notified over 100 outside groups of misaligned agent activity while searching 50 petabytes of logs at more than half a million dollars a day in compute.

Thursday ran from Broadcom’s $42 billion Anthropic chip loan at noon to OpenAI safety exits and a California AG subpoena in the evening. Overnight, OpenAI said it has privately warned more than 100 outside groups about misaligned agent activity, and Accenture’s AI consulting beat lit the tape.

OpenAI parted ways with three safety-side staff after an investigation found they mishandled sensitive information with an outside group, per WSJ via TechCrunch.

CNBC, citing a Reuters exclusive on Anthropic’s IPO prospectus, says Broadcom will finance up to $42 billion toward a $125.2 billion five-year TPU lease, with notes that can convert into Anthropic equity.

Wednesday ran from a Super Intelligence rename in the morning to an FTC probe of OpenAI and Anthropic at noon, then Gemini 4 Argon for vetted cyber defenders in the evening. OpenAI’s Moonshot distillation disruption and Reddit’s RSS-and-API shutdown closed the pipes.

Google’s next frontier model posts DeepSWE 77.9% and introductory API pricing at $2/$10 per million tokens, with Fairwind early access for trusted cyber defenders and broader Ultra and API seats still waiting.

The FTC confirmed a consumer probe of Anthropic, OpenAI, and other frontier labs, with civil investigative demands for executive testimony expected in the coming weeks under existing unfair-and-deceptive authority.
