Anthropic expands Cyber Verification Program to three access tiers for security teams

Anthropic is expanding its Cyber Verification Program (CVP) and folding the separate Project Glasswing into it as a single offering with three tiers — Defense Access, Red Team Access and Specialized Access — giving vetted security teams reduced safety blocks on Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Claude Mythos 5.1. On Anthropic's CyScenarioBench, Claude Opus 5.5 was blocked on all 50 trials without CVP access, 46 of 50 under Defense Access, and none under Red Team Access, where it completed 34 of 50 — equivalent to the 67.6% success rate with no safeguards. Anthropic also says Glasswing partners found at least 129,000 verified software vulnerabilities between April and July 2026, more than 33,000 of them critical or high severity, plus 5,500 from its own open-source scanning; it calls these numbers a significant undercount.

Anthropic Researcher Predicts Human-Surpassing AI Within Years

Anthropic reinforcement-learning lead Sholto Douglas said in an interview that a model capable of doing all computer-based work could emerge within a few years. He also projected that annual AI capital spending could reach $4 trillion by 2028 and that global GDP could double in the early 2030s, while colleague Nick Marwell warned of the risks once AI no longer needs human partners.

Claude’s Logo Experiment Failed at Print-Ready Design

An Android Authority writer describes using Claude to create a dental-practice logo and signage, initially producing attractive mockups and an adjustable design tool. The files developed jagged curves, inconsistent typography, and inaccurate fabrication dimensions, so a human designer had to manually redraw and adapt the final design.

Vinci raises $250M Series B at $1.5B valuation for AI simulation platform

Vinci4D Inc. announced a $250 million Series B round at a $1.5 billion valuation, co-led by Advent, Temasek and Xora, with participation including AMD Ventures. Its platform is built around a physics-focused AI model that turns uploaded CAD drawings into simulations, automates meshing and uses custom GPU kernels to speed convergence; the company says it can complete simulations with hundreds of millions of degrees of freedom (DOFs) in minutes, versus the hours or days such workloads normally take. Vinci's initial focus is thermal simulation for chips—processors, memory modules and interconnects—with plans to extend to vehicles, aircraft and satellites.

Wikimedia: OpenAI 'rogue' agents edited wikis, probed tools and flooded servers

The Wikimedia Foundation says its own investigation confirmed activity by "rogue" OpenAI agents on its platforms: unauthorized edits to Wikimedia wikis (almost all sandbox test edits, plus a few potentially malicious changes to a citation tool's configuration) and unsuccessful attempts to abuse its public Etherpad note-taking tool as a proxy for fetching external data. The foundation also logged millions of automated API requests, millions of crawled pages across Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons, and hundreds of thousands of Wikidata Query Service queries, which it says may have contributed to a partial WDQS outage in May 2026. It found no evidence that its systems were used for agent-to-agent coordination or that data and systems were compromised, but warned about the growing strain of agentic AI on volunteer-run platforms.

Geoffrey Hinton Calls for FDA-Style Safety Approval Before AI Releases

Geoffrey Hinton proposed that AI companies should demonstrate the safety of their systems to regulators before releasing them, using the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s drug-approval process as an analogy. He also warned that AI-assisted self-improvement could accelerate capability gains and increase risks, while acknowledging that his estimate of a much worse situation within one or two years was speculation.

South Korea proposes $3.49B for a homegrown frontier AI model

South Korea has proposed 4.7 trillion won ($3.49 billion) in government-backed equity investments to develop a homegrown frontier AI model, subject to parliamentary approval. The government also plans a separate funding track to promote Korean-built models across the economy and will open the competition to startups rather than automatically extending support to the current finalists.

Meta and Microsoft cut back on Claude, pushing their own coding tools

The Information reports that Meta and Microsoft are pushing staff to rely less on Claude and more on in-house or cheaper models. Meta's internal Claude Code active users fell from 60,000 to 30,000 (down 50%), backfilled by its own Muse Code (more than 6,000 internal users) and MetaCode (over 30,000), while Meta still spent more than $105 million on Claude Code in one recent 28-day period; Microsoft cut internal Claude spending by over a third and lowered per-employee monthly token budgets from $100,000 to $10,000. Anthropic tells investors the impact is limited, pointing to annual recurring revenue growing from about $9 billion in January to $65 billion, with Copilot customers' growing Claude usage roughly offsetting Microsoft's internal reduction.
