    Trump puts his spy chief in charge of AI risk

    On Wednesday I wrote that the AI giants had promised the White House to police themselves. Now we know who judges whether that is enough. Jay Clayton, America's director of national intelligence, will lead a White House task force with 120 days to report on AI's risks and Washington's role. Handing AI to the man who oversees the spy agencies makes it a national-security matter. His deputies include the head of the FTC, the consumer watchdog already investigating OpenAI and Anthropic. The same day, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called the AI companies' own risk warnings "alarmism without solutions". Expect rules forcing companies to report AI failures long before rules that hold AI back.

    Local residents are stopping Europe's AI data centres

    In Europe, AI now gets built or blocked at the local planning meeting. Opposition from residents has stalled or cancelled about $42 billion of European data-centre projects, according to STL Partners, a research firm cited by CNBC on Saturday. Between January and April, over 70 projects were rejected or restricted, already more than in all of last year. Scotland has frozen approvals for the largest sites. Denmark has passed a law that can put data centres at the back of the queue for grid power, and protesters in Copenhagen call them energy vampires. The residents have a point about power and water, and Europe's AI plans will pay for it in time and money.

    Google's free Gemini gets weaker this week

    Plenty of staff use the free version of Google's Gemini at work without telling anyone. From this Friday they get a weaker AI. Google will limit free users to Flash-Lite, the smallest of its three models, and take the strongest model away from its cheapest paid plan too, 9to5Google reports. Google has not said why, but these models are expensive to run, and Google would rather you paid. The data-centre story above explains it: computing power is scarce, and free users are cut first. Anyone at your company doing serious work on free AI is about to get worse answers, and nobody there chose that.

    Meta's chatbot helps mathematicians solve long-unsolved problems

    Open problems in mathematics are where very clever people go to be stuck for years. On Friday Meta published six research papers in which mathematicians worked with Muse Spark, the AI behind its assistant, and Meta says five of them settle questions that had stood open. Each paper marks which passages the AI drafted. The caveat is real: other teams had already solved some of the same problems, and one outside mathematician who reviewed the papers says only three of the six results are new. What strikes me is the method. The experts used the same kind of chat window anyone can open, so research teams elsewhere could try this approach now.

    China stocked up on the machines that make AI chips

    Huawei says its AI chips now outsell Nvidia's in China, and that its real problem is making enough of them. A new report shows China planned for that. Chinese chip factories have bought about 340 of the machines that print advanced chips, according to the Center for Technology & Statecraft, a Washington think tank. Most came from ASML, the Dutch company that dominates that equipment, and many can be adapted to make AI chips. The authors, both former US officials, want a total ban on such sales to China. Nobody yet knows how many of the machines are in use. The existing export controls arrived after most of the shopping was done.
