A recap of our reporting yesterday: - OpenAI is doing a staggered release of its new model GPT 5.6 because, as Sam Altman explained to staff this week, the government asked it to do so - OpenAI had been working with the government since before the Anthropic blowup to preview its new model - Despite sharing OpenAI's plan with agencies and top officials, Sam Altman still got a call from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick this week cautioning against a release without getting clearance, highlighting the confusion in the administration over who is handling the process - When Trump signed the long-awaited executive order in early June, the administration promised a voluntary process - The EO stated that the framework for companies to share their models with the government pre-release would be worked out in 60 days - The Office of the National Cyber Director hosted its first feedback session with industry on June 9, the same day that Anthropic released Fable and just a few days before the White House imposed export controls on Anthropic - Anthropic was not invited to the session - One of the issues that came up was whether the framework would have exemptions for open-source models, as Chinese open-source rapidly catches up with the leading U.S. models - The process of creating the voluntary framework has been on hold amid as the White House holds meetings with Anthropic to reach an accord about the export controls. Meanwhile, policy experts warn that the administration has created a de facto licensing regime in its place
Huge. If you thought it was just Anthropic... theinformation.com/articles/trump… Also, I am in awe of @theinformation team that is breaking this caliber of high-level news non-stop. @leomschwartz @steph_palazzolo @amir
Today in Applied: An auditing startup said companies are getting mistakenly overcharged for AI models @theinformation
NEW: Trump admin asks OpenAI to stagger GPT-5.6 release over cyber concerns. Will approve "access customer by customer during this preview period” What a time we are in...
Big scoop from @leomschwartz @steph_palazzolo @amir in @theinformation about the new normal for AI model releases: OpenAI will release its 5.6 model to a select group before its public release after a confusing episode with the Trump Admin. theinformation.com/articles/trump…
The most interesting conversation happening today in tech is the one inside Nvidia about OpenAI's new Jalapeno chip. @theinformation has had lots of stories about the back and forth over it. Clearly, Nvidia has been preparing for all these custom efforts, which, with some exception, haven't affected its market share. But makes you understand Nvidia's push for new customers beyond frontier models and neoclouds.
At @theinformation, we aim to bring you the news that matters most. That's why @shqne just dropped the handiest map I've seen of the 300+ data center moratoriums enacted or in process across the US. If you care about this stuff, and so many in my timeline do, please check it out. And don't miss the dynamic popups that give detail on each one. Link in comments
Hands down one of the coolest graphics we have published. Those little red dots are cropping up.... @shqne theinformation.com/articles/300-p…
SambaNova Executive Chairman Lip-Bu Tan says the AI chip startup is set to raise $800M to $1B, sources say at a ~$10B valuation, up from $2B in February (The Information) (Visit Techmeme dot com for the link and full context!)
xAI is betting big on AI video and image generation — but the biggest driver of Grok Imagine may not be the use case SpaceX talks up to investors. Inside xAI, employees say NSFW content has become a major source of traffic for Grok. One former engineer said users were even turning to the company’s coding tool for racy content. Two others estimated adult content accounted for more than half of Grok usage.
when U.S. govt invests in ur startup, it predictably gets easier to raise private capital... Pat Gelsinger-chaired chipmaking laser firm xLight is latest example

Scoop with @validapau on SambaNova's quintupled valuation. Lots of details (link in comment), including how it's position vs. Nvidia now:
SambaNova is set to raise up to $1 billion at a $10 billion valuation, a fivefold jump from four months ago. The Intel-backed chip startup is pitching its inference chips as a lower-cost complement to Nvidia’s GPUs. Read more: thein.fo/4w1PdYu
Who's trying to ban AI data centers? @shqne created an exhaustive map of proposed bans and moratoriums in @theinformation. theinformation.com/articles/300-p…
🌶️codename confirmed! I wrote about OpenAI’s “Jalapeño” chip w/ Broadcom back in May…including the complicated $18 billion (!!) vendor financing talks. theinformation.com/articles/opena…
