AI chip-maker, NVIDIA, has blasted Anthropic for publicly supporting the USA’s Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion (or, the AI Diffusion Rule), which imposes varying levels of AI chip export restrictions on countries across the world.
Anthropic argued for increased export controls and enforcement to reduce smuggling tactics, claiming that China has been sneaking AI chips into the country via “prosthetic baby bumps” and “live lobster shipments.”
In response, NVIDIA scathingly suggested that “US firms should rise to the challenge, rather than tell tall tales that large, heavy, and sensitive electronics are smuggled in ‘baby bumps’ or ‘alongside live lobsters.’”
It blasted the AI export framework, saying that “China, with half of the world’s AI researchers, has highly capable AI experts at every layer of the AI stack. America cannot manipulate regulators to capture victory in AI.”
This comes as no surprise, as NVIDIA initially slammed the framework—when it was released by the Biden Administration in January—believing it would “derail” global innovation. But there’s another reason NVIDIA violently disagrees with the proposed rules: The new export restrictions would limit the chip-maker's ability to sell AI chips to China, having previously said that restrictions could cost the company $5.5B.

A US federal judge has narrowed the scope of Elon Musk’s lawsuit against OpenAI (which accuses OpenAI of misrepresenting its intentions to remain a charity, just to secure his funding, after it announced it was transitioning into a for-profit business), but has allowed some of his fraud-related allegations to continue.
The judge said Musk’s allegations that OpenAI had committed fraud can continue, but dismissed his accusations that OpenAI had engaged in racketeering activity and false advertising and had breached its fiduciary duty.
They also dismissed Musk’s claim that Microsoft (a key OpenAI investor) aided the fraud, but ruled that Microsoft must face allegations of interfering with OpenAI and Musk’s contract.
Musk alleges that Microsoft knew about OpenAI’s future for-profit plans and actively took steps to ‘substantially assist and encourage’ the violation of his contract with OpenAI.
This means that the core of Musk's lawsuit, which focuses on whether OpenAI’s transition to a for-profit structure (largely to appease investors, namely Softbank) breached an implied agreement with Musk, therefore resulting in fraud, can proceed.
Earlier this week, nonprofit research institute Ai2 released a small (open-source) AI model—Olmo 21B—which reportedly beats several similarly sized models from Google, Meta, and others on key benchmarks.
For example, Olmo 21B scored higher than Google’s Gemma 31B, Meta’s Llama 3.21B, and Alibaba’s (recently released) Qwen 2.5 1.5B on benchmarks measuring arithmetic reasoning and factual accuracy.
Unlike most open-source models, Ai2 has provided the full code and data sets used to develop it, so developers can rebuild it, but has warned that it shouldn’t be used commercially, as it can produce “problematic outputs.”

The risks of AI mental health apps no one talks about
In this episode of The AI Report podcast, journalist Kate Farmer joins Liam to discuss the real-world risks and ethical blind spots of AI therapy apps. They do a deep dive into platforms like Wysa and Woebot and reveal a troubling gap between what these tools say they can deliver and what users actually get, especially when it comes to mental health, data privacy, and regulatory oversight.
