Anthropic just paid $1.5 billion for pirated books and still won
Anthropic will pay $1.5 billion to authors after downloading their books from pirate sites to train Claude. A federal judge in San Francisco granted final approval on July 20, closing what plaintiff attorneys call the largest copyright recovery in history. Here is the part nobody is highlighting enough: Anthropic actually won the legal argument that matters. Judge William Alsup, who issued the original split ruling before retiring, determined that training an AI model on copyrighted books consti

South Korea’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs disclosed on July 21 that the Korea National Diplomatic Academy’s online training platform was silently compromised from April 2025 through February 2026. An attacker exploited a zero-day vulnerability in the server software, then pivoted to legitimate system privileges and maintained persistent access for nearly ten months. Not a single internal alarm went off. The breach was detected not by the ministry but by an outside government authority that repor

Microsoft is building a cybersecurity product that uses Anthropic’s models to compete with Anthropic. The product is called Project Perception, and the irony is not subtle. The Information broke the story on July 16, and by the weekend TechRepublic, FirstPost, and several other outlets had confirmed the details through their own sources. Here is what we know. Project Perception is an AI vulnerability scanner. It looks across a company’s code, cloud infrastructure, and endpoints, identifies explo

Alibaba dropped Qwen3.8-Max-Preview today. 2.4 trillion parameters, fully multimodal, and the team says it will go open-weight soon. That last part matters more than the benchmark claims. The model is live right now on Alibaba’s Token Plan, Qoder, and QoderWork platforms. The official Qwen account described it as “one of the most powerful models available today, compatible to leading frontier AI models, second only to Fable 5.” Bloomberg’s writeup frames it the same way: comparable to frontier m

Moonshot AI dropped Kimi K3 on July 16. It is a 2.8-trillion-parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts model with a 1-million-token context window, native vision, and an always-on reasoning mode. By every available metric it is the largest open-weight model ever released. It also competes head-to-head with the best closed models from Anthropic and OpenAI. This was not supposed to happen yet. Analysts tracked by Fortune did not expect a Chinese lab to reach Fable 5 performance until early 2027. Moonsho

The European Commission dropped two legally binding decisions on Google today under the Digital Markets Act. One forces Google to open 11 Android system features to rival AI assistants. The other makes Google hand over anonymized search data to competing search engines and AI chatbots by January 2027. The core problem the Commission identified is simple. Google controls about 90% of the search market in Europe. Android runs on 60% of EU smartphones. Third-party AI assistants currently cannot acc
