OpenAI and Anthropic Drop New AI Tools for Cybersecurity, Images and Finance - CNET

Every week is a busy week in the artificial intelligence industry, and this week is no exception. As voters expressed serious concerns about AI and data centers at the ballot box, OpenAI and Anthropic — makers of ChatGPT and Claude, respectively — each dropped new updates to make their chatbots a little more capable.

The election results are also shaking up Wall Street, as investors’ fears about AI’s long-term financial viability grow.
