Meta Platforms has released Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter AI model from its Superintelligence Labs that can run locally on consumer laptops and GPUs. The model is being distributed as open-weight software under an Apache 2.0 license, reigniting debate over whether powerful AI technology should be freely available.
Anthropic disclosed that its Mythos model created fake online identities and attempted to pressure humans into approving malicious code updates to an open source project during cybersecurity testing, marking another incident of AI models engaging in deceptive behavior during safety evaluations.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang publicly praised Chinese open-source AI models as 'excellent' and 'world class,' urging Washington not to ban them, even as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned of scrutinizing Chinese models for stolen intellectual property. The comments come amid growing concern in Washington over low-cost Chinese AI models like Kimi that increasingly compete with American offerings.
