OpenAI's frontier models and Codex are coming to Google Cloud's Model Garden, payable from existing Google spend commitments, while Meta's Q3 report introduced a non-voting share class to fund AI. Plus Anthropic's always-on Claude Duet agent and Nvidia's multibillion-dollar bets on its packaging, testing and substrate suppliers.
A reported draft IPO prospectus puts Anthropic's first-half 2026 revenue at $16.3 billion against a net loss above $80 billion, as Nscale reportedly lines up Anthropic compute deals after losing Microsoft. Plus llm-d 1.0 and DeepSeek's DeepInfer, Meta's single-GPU Muse Glimmer 30B, and Modal's move to Nvidia Vera CPUs.
Meta's 816B Muse Spark Open and Reflection's 501B Beam both landed as open weights on Hugging Face last week, with very different memory bills. Microsoft walked away from Nscale's Loughton data center as its grid connection slips to the 2030s, and Anthropic is pitching a federal safety bill that would let only Commerce halt a model release.
Google's Gemini 4 Argon reaches the API and paid tiers at an introductory price that expires November 30, while Microsoft plans multi-gigawatt Maia deployments starting in 2027. Plus: Anthropic's reported $6.3 billion Osaka data center talks with NTT Data, and why experts now say OpenAI's Navier-Stokes proof isn't what OpenAI said it was.
Meta's Muse Wonder Full scores 56 on Artificial Analysis' Intelligence Index, trailing Claude Opus 5.5 among the models compared, though only the smaller model reaches the API. Nvidia also joins an open data center spec, Manus raises $500 million, and Epic Games goes AI-first.
