Anthropic is accelerating its international push, with plans to expand its international staff by three times as demand for its Claude AI model intensifies outside the United States. The company says nearly four out of five consumer interactions with Claude now come from international markets, with per-person usage in South Korea, Australia, and Singapore surpassing levels seen in the US. Backed by Alphabet and Amazon, Anthropic has become one of the most valuable AI firms in the world, distinguishing itself with frontier models that excel at coding and enterprise use cases.

Alphabet’s investment chief says the promise of AI will only be realized if the United States can rapidly expand its energy base. In an interview at the Bloomberg Philanthropies Global Forum, Alphabet’s Ruth Porat says the nation has underinvested in the grid for decades and must accelerate both short-term and long-term solutions. According to Porat, the potential that comes from the massive AI infrastructure buildout will only be realized if the US can generate the power to bring data centers to life. “The upside from AI is profound, and we can only access it if we actually have the energy…
A trillion-dollar asset manager is betting on select technology names, including Alphabet (GOOGL), to outlast the noise around artificial intelligence. In a new CNBC interview, Nuveen chief investment officer Saira Malik highlights two AI companies she believes are positioned to dominate the long run. “So just looking at, first of all, AVGO (Broadcom) and Alphabet, both of these companies are positioned very well. With AVGO, they have huge demand from hyperscalers for their A6 chips, very strong management team, and the ability to earn very strong earnings growth going forward. The stock actually is not as expensive as one might…
A veteran Wall Street strategist says Intel (INTC) is showing signs of a bullish countertrend move while Bitcoin (BTC) is approaching levels that could offer a new entry point. In a new CNBC interview, Katie Stockton, founder of Fairlead Strategies, highlights both equity and crypto technical setups in the current market. Looking at Intel, she pointed to a prolonged period of consolidation followed by a clear breakout, saying the stock could continue to climb. “I’m very keen on countertrend setups, and Intel had this prolonged basing phase in place, obviously gapped out of that base and now has, I think,…
Barclays says a trio of forces led by artificial intelligence is primed to push global equities higher, as US stock funds notch their first inflows in weeks. The banking giant’s call comes as investors reversed course and added billions to equity funds despite recent volatility in mega-cap technology names, reports Reuters. According to LSEG Lipper, global equity funds recorded net inflows of $28.36 billion in the week to September 24, snapping a three-week streak of outflows. Standing out are US equity funds, receiving $12.06 billion in new money, their first positive week following three weeks of outflows. European funds followed…
A pair of MIT-trained founders have quietly joined the billionaire ranks amid the AI mania, even as their company burns through tens of millions in red ink. Nuclear start-up Oklo (OKLO), widely hailed as a darling of the AI-energy narrative, posted a $25 million loss in its latest quarter and $55 million in operating losses for the year ending June, all while generating zero revenue, reports Forbes. Still, investor enthusiasm tied to AI’s insatiable power needs helped Oklo’s valuation surge to about $21 billion. The company is positioning itself as the nuclear backbone for data centers. Its long-term plan is…
Crypto whales are seizing the marketwide correction to accumulate nearly $2 billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Data from Lookonchain shows that a whale owning the wallet with a 1F1neJ tag has taken off hundreds of millions of dollars in Bitcoin from the crypto exchanges Bullish.com and Binance. “Whales continue to accumulate BTC despite the market drop. Newly created wallet ‘1F1neJ’ has withdrawn 2,261 $BTC($247 million) from exchanges in the past four days.” The blockchain tracking platform also says that over a dozen whale wallets have accumulated nearly $1.8 billion worth of ETH in just a few days.…
Microsoft says cybercriminals are now using artificial intelligence to hide their phishing scams, and US businesses are already being targeted. The company’s security team spotted and blocked an email campaign that tried to steal login details. The team says the attackers likely used an AI model to generate the code, adding complexity that made it harder for legacy defenses to catch. It starts with fake emails that look like file-sharing notices. Each message had an attachment that seemed to be a six-page PDF. But the file was actually an SVG, a graphics file that can hold hidden code. When opened,…
A senior JPMorgan strategist says the buildout of artificial intelligence infrastructure is rooted in real economics, blasting bubble calls. In a new Bloomberg interview, Stephanie Aliaga, global market strategist at JPMorgan, says the artificial intelligence infrastructure boom is underpinned by real demand and strong cash flows. She also says that the AI trade is likely one bullish catalyst away from witnessing a resurgence. “And what gives me some confidence when I’m performing my sanity check is that this infrastructure wave, as significant as it is, is powered by real demand growth that is already showing up in the numbers. It’s…
Fundstrat’s Tom Lee says AI is creating exponential growth opportunities while blasting stock market bears calling for a top. In a new CNBC interview, Lee says he doesn’t believe the market top is in, even after megacap technology stocks have slipped in recent sessions. He points to parallels with the Dot-com era, but notes that today’s environment is very different. In his view, valuations for leaders like Nvidia (NVDA) remain modest relative to their earnings power. “We’re in a period where there is a supercycle and exponential growth opportunities within AI. But it doesn’t mean every company that has elevated…
