Anthropic analyzed millions of real Claude interactions and found the 99.9th percentile session duration nearly doubled to 45+ minutes in 3 months, with software engineering accounting for nearly half of all agentic use.
Anthropic published a new theory explaining why AI assistants like Claude express emotions and use anthropomorphic language—proposing that models select from personas inherited from fictional characters during training.
OpenAI introduced EVMbench, a new benchmark measuring how well AI agents can detect, exploit, and patch high-severity smart contract vulnerabilities in EVM-based blockchains.
Anthropic revealed that Chinese AI labs DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax created over 24,000 fraudulent accounts and generated 16+ million Claude exchanges to extract its capabilities and improve their own competing models.

A highly upvoted r/MachineLearning thread debates whether skyrocketing acceptance rates at top venues like CVPR and ICLR are diluting the academic value of conference publication, raising concerns about review quality.
Researchers have built a thermodynamic computer that generates images from noise using orders of magnitude less energy than current generative AI models, offering a radically different approach to AI hardware.
Elon Musk's xAI has secured a Pentagon agreement to deploy Grok in classified military systems, displacing Anthropic's previous exclusivity. Anthropic now faces an ultimatum to remove safety restrictions or risk being labeled a supply chain risk.
Meta and NVIDIA announced a multiyear strategic AI infrastructure partnership on February 17. Meta will deploy millions of Blackwell and Rubin GPUs, plus Grace CPUs in a first-of-its-kind standalone server deployment. Analysts peg the deal at ~$50B.
