AI giant Anthropic said Friday it has taken its latest artificial intelligence models, known as Fable 5 and Mythos 5, offline to comply with a directive from the Trump administration to prevent their use by foreign nationals. The export controls mark the U.S. government’s most significant step to date to restrict access to the most advanced AI models. Anthropic released Fable widely this week. That model is a limited version of the even more advanced Mythos, to which the company has tightly limited access due to cybersecurity fears. In a statement, Anthropic said it disagrees with the government’s handling of…
My, Brian Wang, analysis from weeks ago matches what Sequoia and Brad Gerstner, Altimeter Capital and Gavin Baker have said yesterday and today Sequoia capital Shaun Maguire says that, in his opinion, if you add the Anthropic and Google deals + Starlink growth, SpaceX could reach a ~$50B revenue run rate in Q4. BG2, Brad Gerstner, says that the biggest thing investors are sleeping on is the potential for Cursor to make XAI competitive or a leader against Athropic on compute. This multiplies the revenue and profits. Sequoia “That already starts to shatter the narrative that I was hearing two…
Honor launched the X7e 4G earlier this month, and if you’ve been wondering whether this phone would get a 5G option, the answer seems to be “yes, kind of”. The Honor X7e Plus 5G has now been certified for sale in the UAE by TDRA and it’s also been spotted in the SGS database. We’re not sure exactly what makes this a “Plus” aside from the 5G connectivity, so we can’t be sure how similar it is to the already launched X7e 4G. But based on the SGS certification, we can assume the X7e Plus 5G will be offered in…
YouTube is the best source of free videos on the planet, but it’s not really free. You pay for YouTube by looking at advertisements, whether they take the form of sponsored search results, banner ads, or pre-roll, mid-roll, or post-roll video ads. You probably already know this, because YouTube ads have become significantly more intrusive over the years. Almost every video has unskippable ads. Although YouTube Premium is the subscription designed to help you avoid them, I decided that paying $15.99 per month for YouTube was worse than watching frequent ads. Years passed as I continued to ignore YouTube Premium,…

The Iran-linked threat actor Handala this week boasted to have hacked California Water Service (Cal Water), and published 5 gigabytes of data allegedly stolen from the US water utility. In a post on their blog, the hacking group said the intrusion was retaliation for recent US actions in Iran and claimed they had the ability to disrupt water access but chose not to. While the level of access Handala had has not been confirmed, threat intelligence company Dataminr says the threat actor likely hacked into Cal Water’s RTKBase instance, a GNSS base station platform, and then moved laterally to a…

Storage on the device is most important for a PC to work properly. We need to have a minimum of 64GB free space to install and run Windows 11. To install and run programs and create files, we need free space. At times, we see some files occupying abnormally large amounts of storage space. They seem to serve no purpose other than taking up the storage space and making it hard for other programs to run properly. In this guide, we show you what to do when Capability Access Manager takes up more storage than it requires. What is Capability…
To be clear, I’m going to say something I’ve repeatedly said elsewhere, if not in such explicit terms: you don’t need a high-end soundbar to enjoy a movie. While a cheap bar or your TV’s internal speakers are going to be disappointing with, say, Dune or Terminator 2, the most important thing is the movie itself, followed by a sharp and decently-sized picture, then clear dialogue and bass response. Back in the ’80s, people counted themselves lucky to be able to watch any movie at home in stereo without it being sliced up for commercial breaks. If you want to…
