AI Weekly News Briefing: From Real World AI Progress to From Superintelligence Fears
Everything that mattered in AI in the last week in one focused briefing. We start with headline moments that shift markets and compute supply: SoftBank’s massive final tranche for OpenAI and Anthropic’s scale up with Google TPUs.
Then we move to product and policy: Microsoft Copilot’s memory and group features and a 30,000 person NHS pilot that reported 43 minutes saved per worker per day. We explain why OpenAI’s UK data residency matters for public sector adoption, how India’s proposed labeling thresholds could reshape platform UX, and how Amazon and EA are turning AI into operational and creative power tools.
Finally, we cover Anthropic’s vertical push into life sciences and a prominent international appeal to halt superintelligence development.
