Claude can no longer “Reverse Engineer Anything.” Anthropic just quietly killed REA. But Interesting timing. After a few viral cases of people using Claude to reverse-engineer Samsung TV firmware and identify data-collection services, Anthropic appears to have restricted those reverse-engineering abilities.

Perhaps the threat was never a rogue AI agent trying to subvert humans—but humans using AI to hurt other humans.

“Even without active alliance building or coercion, China and the United States can make all other countries that seek access to advanced AI beholden to them,” write @nfergus, Lisa Klaassen, and @ericschmidt. foreignaffairs.com/china/emp…

If you have not read this piece of writing - you should. Not that any of us in tech didn't know but seeing it put this way is mindblowing & mindblowingly scary ... is mildly putting it. I dont even know where to begin. The idea that anyone anywhere can just capture any photo, video or content of anyone's life without them knowing (see examples in the piece) and package it and sell it to the labs for training is ...... Forget data breaches the way we have known it from our systems. We are data. Our physical lives are data. That someone is capturing without you knowing and selling it to labs!!!! There are responsible actors and irresponsible actors. But like Ilya says here - most folks labs including have no idea what data they're getting to begin with, from the data brokers. The idea that the onus of protection is now in the hands of each person or individual is 🤯🤯🤯 Data privacy takes on a meaning unlike any we've known before!!!

Ummm, there's apparently a driver with a Florida tag who has gotten 57 traffic camera tickets in D.C. — including one for driving *141 mph* in a 35 mph zone. And another driver with a Virginia tag that has 405 traffic camera tickets, including going 108 in a 25. Insane.

BREAKING: A Chinese space technology company has unveiled satellites designed to run a 397-billion-parameter AI model in orbit, moving increasingly powerful computing systems beyond Earth. STAR VISION introduced four new satellites at the International Astronautical Congress, including two designed to operate together as an orbital AI computing system. One satellite, Marco Polo, is being built to run a large AI model directly in space, while its companion, Ibn Battuta, is designed to provide 10 POPS of computing capability for processing satellite imagery and other complex workloads. The two spacecraft are intended to communicate through a high-speed optical link, allowing AI processing and decision-making to be distributed between satellites. Targeted for launch in late 2026, the system could help satellites analyze information in orbit rather than sending all raw data back to Earth. The announced computing capabilities have yet to be demonstrated in orbit.
