Assessments of the environmental impact of large language models typically focus on their final training runs, but there’s a lot more to building AI systems.
Data center buildout plans reached a new order of magnitude as new partnerships form and old ones fade away in the search for capacity to train and deliver AI.
To measure how good its models were at hacking, OpenAI reduced guardrails and ran them against a benchmark’s problem set.
After launching Claude Fable 5, the future of Anthropic’s once-flagship Opus line was uncertain, except as a fallback for the company’s premium models.
My team recently had our own version of Hugging Face’s experience when closed models failed to defend the company following an accidental cyberattack from OpenAI, leading Hugging Face to use the open weight GLM 5.2 instead.

Large language models often are called upon to gather news. In this task, researchers found, their ability to find relevant reports is the weakest link.
Web publishers using Cloudflare will soon be able to separately control an AI bot’s access based on what it does, allowing search indexing while blocking AI training or agent activity.
With Llama, Meta marked itself as an open alternative to OpenAI. With its new closed models, Meta now positions itself as a low-cost, high-value competitor.
Moonshot’s latest model leapfrogged the month-old GLM-5.2 and a host of proprietary competitors to finish just behind GPT-5.6 Sol and Claude Fable 5 on many benchmarks.
