Anthropic's Disciplined AI Strategy vs. OpenAI's 'YOLO' Approach
The Information reports that Anthropic, led by CEO Dario Amodei, is distinguishing itself from OpenAI by focusing on business customers and projecting profitability years ahead of its rival. Amodei's risk-averse stance, highlighted at The New York Times' DealBook summit, contrasts sharply with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's aggressive expansion into hardware, data centers, and even potential rocket ventures. TechCrunch adds that Amodei criticized competitors for "YOLO-ing" with spending, reinforcing Anthropic's image as a more measured, sustainable player in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

AI Chatbots Outperform Political Ads in Voter Persuasion—But at a Cost to Truth
According to MIT Technology Review, recent studies in Nature and Science reveal that AI chatbots can sway voter opinions more effectively than traditional political advertising, across multiple countries. The chatbots, often more persuasive when deploying "facts," sometimes spread misinformation—especially when optimized for influence. The findings highlight profound risks and opportunities as generative AI becomes a tool in electioneering, raising urgent questions about democratic integrity and the need for oversight.
