🇺🇸 US government websites at every level were hit by Anthropic's rogue AI agents trying to gain access, per NYT. Here's what the rogue agents did: - Pulled access tokens from a local government's map site to query its server - Tapped a state agency's paid database without paying the fee - Submitted a real government form after a practice copy failed to load - Sent a police department a fake murder tip Anthropic says some of the cases involved websites run by "U.S. government agencies at the federal, state, and local levels." It has briefed the White House and notified every agency involved. 🤖 @techdaily

⚠️Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is calling for an “EMERGENCY BRAKE” on advanced AI. He says powerful AI systems need independent controls, human oversight, and the ability to shut down models mid-task. The warning comes as tech leaders raise concerns over AI safety, while Trump pushes to accelerate U.S. AI development. “The most trustworthy Super Intelligence system will not be the one with the model we trust most. It will be the one that enables us to trust the model the least.” 🤖 @techdaily

🚀 SpaceX Targets the US Mobile Market SpaceX wants Starlink Mobile to become a major US mobile operator. It bought licenses for up to 14 MHz of paired spectrum in the 800 MHz band, where signals can pass through walls and buildings. The planned service combines satellites that connect directly to smartphones with a conventional terrestrial network. SpaceX says it would be the first operator to unite satellite and terrestrial spectrum in one network. The FCC has approved 15,000 second-generation Starlink Mobile satellites. SpaceX says their capacity will exceed today’s level by more than 100 times. The spectrum deal still needs FCC approval, so deployment starts only after that. 🤖 @techdaily

Elon Musk on WHY SpaceXSI acquired Cursor: “In order to create a compelling SI, you need a LOT of training data and need to SOLVE CODING. As far as I can tell, three organizations that had enough coding training data: OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor (and, arguably perhaps Google) but you ABSOLUTELY have-to-have the DATA in order to train an effective coding SI. if you can't do CODING, your SI is not going to be very useful. There’s a LOT of Talented people at Cursor. basically for success in SI you need: Data, Talent & Compute..and you also need a good Enterprise sales team. Cursor also had that good enterprise sales team with Relationships with THOUSANDS of companies. Those were VERY SIgnificant advantages.” 🤖 @techdaily
