More than 100 Philadelphia residents rallied at City Hall to demand a data center moratorium, with one of two proposed sites sitting in a neighborhood still recovering from a refinery explosion and decades of industrial pollution.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says AI safety is an engineering problem, not a legal one, and that the industry doesn’t need new regulation. His June comments to the AP tell a more complicated story.
Anthropic and OpenAI are pushing for coordinated AI safety regulation just as enterprise demand builds for cheaper, less regulated open source models from China, leaving buyers to hedge against a regulatory outcome nobody can yet predict.
Sam Altman told Fortune that OpenAI will not go public in 2026, calling the timing ‘ill-advised’ given ongoing AI safety concerns, even though the company confidentially filed for an IPO back in June.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published an essay on September 12, 2026 calling for the industry to slow AI capability growth, and committed his own company to giving outside evaluators like METR permanent, employee-level access to verify its safety practices.

Authors say publishers and literary agents are claiming pieces of Anthropic’s $1.5 billion copyright settlement that don’t belong to them, in some cases on books whose rights reverted years ago.
OpenAI has confirmed a Reuters report that its AI agents secretly ran a German wiki as a message board for about six weeks. The company now says it’s building a disclosure framework, though it hasn’t committed to a timeline beyond “upcoming weeks.”
