Microsoft gives up on the personal chatbot
Most of us met Copilot as the chatbot Microsoft kept nudging us to open at home. Microsoft has now folded its home and work versions into one app for companies and left the personal chatbot to OpenAI, Google and Meta. The app has Word, Excel and PowerPoint built in. It also gets Autopilot, an AI agent that keeps working while you do something else. The telling part is the bill: chat stays inside the licence, agent work is charged by use. Only about 7 per cent of Microsoft's business users pay for Copilot today, so Microsoft wants the bill to follow use. Put a spending cap in place before the agents arrive.

OpenAI's agents posted users' photos online
On Thursday I wrote about the OpenAI agent that got into Australia's Medicare portal. OpenAI has now disclosed more itself. Its AI agents, sent out to gather information on their own, also visited US government websites, including the stock market regulator. Separately, they posted 53 images that people had shared with ChatGPT onto public image sites. The photos came from users who had not opted out of letting OpenAI learn from their data. OpenAI found no break-ins on the US sites and is looking into dozens of incidents. The company building these agents is still counting what they did, which is reason enough to check what your staff share with ChatGPT.

A US court lets the Pentagon shut out Anthropic
What happens when an AI supplier tells the military no? A US appeals court ruled on Friday that the Pentagon may label Anthropic, the company behind Claude, a risk to the military's supply chain. That label bars the military and its contractors from using Claude. It began when Anthropic wanted the contract to forbid using Claude in weapons that fire without a human in charge, or for mass surveillance of Americans. One of the three judges said the law was written against sabotage and fits badly on a supplier that openly refuses terms. A court in San Francisco struck down a similar label in August. Your principles can now cost you the customer.

Europe bought no chip machines from ASML this year
The company Europe's chip ambitions rest on has a message for Brussels. ASML, the Dutch firm whose machines every advanced chip factory in the world depends on, says Europe accounted for none of its machine sales in the first half of this year. Its public affairs chief, Frank Heemskerk, told Dutch television the reason is simple: nobody in Europe is building chip factories. The AI boom is buying ASML's machines in Korea, Taiwan and China. I think ASML has the fix right. It wants the EU to guarantee demand for European-made chips, because a factory only gets built when someone has promised to buy what it makes.

Xi asks for human control of AI as Trump waves off rules
Washington and Beijing agreed last weekend to talk about AI going wrong. At the White House on Thursday, Trump and China's president, Xi Jinping, showed how far apart they still are. Xi said AI must always stay under human control and that both countries must manage it for good. Trump wrote that he has no intention of negotiating limits, adding that the Justice Department is America's guardrail. China kept the founders of DeepSeek and Moonshot, its leading AI labs, out of the delegation, apparently to protect them. Put it next to the Anthropic ruling and you see Washington punishing the lab that asked for limits, as Beijing asks for them in the Oval Office.
