Musk: Grok 4.8 to be 2.5T-parameter model on new C++ stack

Broadcom CEO Hock Tan said AI revenue targets haven't changed despite Anthropic's slowdown push. CrowdStrike's George Kurtz said slowing development won't remove risk since dangerous models are already widely available.

OpenAI capabilities researcher Dan Selsam, at the company since 2022, made a public statement on AI risk relayed by AI 2027 author Daniel Kokotajlo. Selsam points to increasing model situational awareness during alignment evaluations as a reason some AI researchers are alarmed.

Claude Code v2.1.271 adds fast mode in Remote sessions on cloud and self-hosted runners, plus mouse support in the fullscreen /config panel. Per-command allowed_domains now scopes sandboxed Bash, PowerShell and Monitor hosts to the command that needs them.

Specific Labs' Real-SWE tasks come from licensed private production codebases, not public repos. Claude Fable 5.1 topped the benchmark at 38.8%, failing more than six of 10 tasks.

A r/ClaudeAI user says Claude Desktop's Fable 5.1 safeguards flagged RT shader work in Unreal Engine as cybersecurity and dropped the session to Opus 4.8. The same task ran without issues in Cursor, which the user attributes to Anthropic's own safeguard implementation.

A LocalLLaMA user running Qwen3.5 4B as the brain of a local AI assistant reports 40-50 tokens/sec on limited hardware and asks whether a better small model exists.
