Anthropic Splits Its Latest Model Release
Anthropic released Claude Fable 5 to the public and Claude Mythos 5 to a limited group of government, cybersecurity, and research partners, with Fable 5 automatically routing many cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, and model-distillation requests to the older Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic says it still lacks sufficiently robust safeguards to broadly release Mythos-level cyber capabilities.

SpaceX Targets 2027 Demo for Orbital AI Data Centers
Reuters’ sources say SpaceX told prospective IPO investors it plans to launch a demonstration of its proposed orbital AI data center network by late 2027, despite warning in its S-1 filing that the project relies on technically complex, unproven technologies that may never become commercially viable. This is one of the clearest timelines yet for SpaceX’s space-based AI ambitions, but the disclosure comes during IPO fundraising and highlights the uncertainty of using satellites as alternatives to traditional data centers.

German Court Holds Google Liable for AI Overviews
A German court ruled that Google is directly liable for false statements generated by its AI Overviews, finding that the summaries constitute Google’s own content rather than traditional search results after the system wrongly linked two publishers to scams and dubious business practices. The decision rejects Google’s argument that users should verify AI answers themselves and treats AI-generated summaries as original claims that companies must fact-check and take legal responsibility for.

Seattle Pauses New Data Center Development
Seattle’s city council voted unanimously to impose a one-year moratorium on new large data centers and launch a study of their impacts after proposals emerged for five projects that could add up to 369 megawatts of demand, roughly one-third of the city’s average daily electricity use. The move reflects growing concern around AI infrastructure, with opponents citing power consumption, water use, grid strain, and economic impacts.

Tata Sees AI Agents Matching Human Headcount
Tata Consultancy Services Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran said TCS, India’s largest IT services company, could eventually employ as many AI agents as human workers and will no longer hire at the scale it did over the past two decades. He argued that AI will automate portions of software development and maintenance work but create new opportunities for IT services firms helping enterprises modernize systems, redesign workflows, govern AI agents, and build AI infrastructure.

LinkedIn launched an alpha version of a creator marketplace that lets marketers discover and contact B2B creators directly through Campaign Manager, giving brands access to audience demographics, engagement metrics, and creator insights.

EU Orders Meta to Open WhatsApp to Rival AI Assistants
The European Commission ordered Meta to restore rival AI assistants’ access to WhatsApp Business within five working days, saying the company’s restrictions risk causing “serious and irreparable damage” to competition in the AI assistant market. Meta plans to appeal, but the case could become an important test of whether regulators can force dominant platforms to keep distribution channels open to AI competitors while antitrust investigations are still underway.

Judge Cancels Trial After Both Sides Cite AI Hallucinations
A federal judge in Mississippi canceled an upcoming trial and disqualified all four lawyers involved after discovering that attorneys on both sides had submitted filings containing AI-hallucinated case citations. The judge said the case showed the dangers of unchecked AI use in the legal profession, fining the lawyers, suspending two from practicing before the court for two years, and warning against treating AI-generated legal research as a substitute for verification.
