AI Edition - It's AI Time - 335

CEO of Anthropic, is worried about espionage, particularly by Chinese spies, targeting AI companies in the U.S. He believes these spies are after valuable “algorithmic secrets” that could be worth up to $100 million, hidden in just a few lines of code.

OpenAI has released a policy proposal describing the Chinese AI lab DeepSeek as "state-subsidized" and "state-controlled" and suggests that the U.S. government consider banning models from DeepSeek and other similar People’s Republic of China (PRC)-supported operations as part of the "AI Action Plan."

Anthropic has made several updates to the Claude 3.7 Sonnet API to help developers increase throughput and reduce token usage by up to 70%, with early users reporting an average reduction of 14%.

X user @EHuanglu shared eight cool examples of what people have created with Manus' viral AI agent. These include an Apple-style website and an app that helps you prep for presentations on the go.

A paper generated by The AI Scientist-v2 by Sakana AI passed the peer-review process at an ICLR 2025 workshop. This marks the first time a fully AI-generated paper has passed the same peer-review process that human scientists go through.

Perplexity has launched a new Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for its Sonar model, which lets Claude access real-time web search features.

The double-edged sword of AI development: while it has the potential to bring great advancements, it also carries significant risks that are hard to control. This has led AI leaders to experience their own "Oppenheimer moment," a reference to a pivotal scene in the Oppenheimer film, where scientists realize they have lost control over their creation.

Daily AI Fundraising: Lila Sciences has raised $200 million in seed funding to develop an AI platform aimed at accelerating life sciences research. Their goal is to create "scientific superintelligence" to design and run experiments faster than traditional methods.
