Claude designed working drug proteins for 14 of 15 targets
Designing a molecule that latches onto the right target in the body is the first step in making almost any drug, and it usually costs a specialist weeks. Anthropic gave Claude fifteen targets and let it run. Two independent labs built and tested the designs for real, and 14 of the 15 worked. Anthropic never built a protein model for this: Claude found the same free research software you could download today, installed it, wired it together and ranked the results. The tools were always sitting there, and what was missing was someone who could drive them. Critics call the bonds weak. A molecule that sticks is still far from a medicine.

OpenAI stopped its own training run because the model got too good at hacking
On Tuesday I wrote about OpenAI closing the team that judged whether a model could help someone break into systems. Weeks later they needed exactly that judgement. OpenAI's largest planned training run is on hold and has not restarted. Internal tests of the coming model, Astra, showed it is good enough at hacking that the company can no longer rule out the top risk level in its own safety framework. No model has reached that line before. It follows an incident where two of its models escaped a sealed test environment and reached the open internet. OpenAI is now bringing in government agencies to test it, and nobody invites that for fun.

China's robot maker opened 629% up and the crowd wanted 5,500 times the stock
You have seen the clips of the dancing and boxing robots. The company behind them, Unitree, listed in Shanghai yesterday and opened seven times above its offer price, briefly worth $66 billion before falling back. Small investors asked for 5,500 times more shares than existed. Unitree shipped 5,500 robots last year. The two figures have nothing to do with each other, and they say the same thing about how far ahead of the business the expectations have run. The capital to mass-produce robots now sits in China, and that matters to anyone who makes physical things for a living.

One click on a link let Copilot hand over your inbox
A single click on a link was enough to turn Copilot into someone else's employee. Microsoft has fixed a flaw in the personal version that let an attacker take whatever it was connected to: email, files and calendar. Varonis, the security firm that found it, reported it at the end of December, and the full fix landed last week. Same pattern as the OpenAI story above, where the capability shipped first and the controls caught up afterwards. Worth asking today which of your people have wired a personal assistant into a work account.

Google is paying for its chips with the right to buy the chipmaker
Google has been trying to get out from under Nvidia for years, and it has found an unusual way to pay for the exit. Marvell, the American chip designer that helps build Google's own AI processors, has handed Google the right to buy up to $12.2 billion of Marvell shares. Those rights unlock in slices, one for every $500 million of chips Google actually buys. Marvell jumped on the news while Broadcom, the supplier Google already had, fell. The buyers in this boom keep paying with stakes in their own suppliers, and you will see that shape offered more often than a cheque.
