We’ve designed and built our first AI chip: Jalapeño.
Designed from the ground up by OpenAI and brought to production with @Broadcom, Jalapeño is purpose-built for the LLM workloads powering ChatGPT, Codex, the API, and future agentic products.
Chips are foundational to the AI economy. Building our own expands our full-stack platform from products to models to infrastructure, and will help us scale intelligence, serve more people, and expand access to AI.
Anthropic is investing $150 million to launch the Claude Corps fellowship, placing 1,000 young people in full-time jobs at nonprofits wanting to enhance their use of AI. https://t.co/djCme3QpTI (Photo: Samuel Boivin/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
JUST IN: DeepSeek just raised $7.4 billion. its first ever outside funding. and investors got no voting rights.
here's what investors agreed to:
→ capital invested through a limited partnership controlled by founder Liang Wenfeng
→ no direct stake in the company
→ zero voting rights
→ 5-year lock-up period
→ China's National AI Investment Fund participated anyway
translation: give us $7.4 billion. we'll do what we want with it. see you in 5 years.
and investors said yes.
why? because DeepSeek has the leverage.
the lab that shocked the world in January with R1 — a model that matched GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost — has been the most talked about AI story of 2026.
the numbers:
→ $7.4 billion raised
→ $50 billion valuation
→ first outside funding in company history
→ Tencent and CATL among top backers
what they'll use it for:
→ AI infrastructure expansion
→ R&D capabilities
→ employee equity
→ commercialization
Liang Wenfeng previously said investors struggled to align with DeepSeek's long-term research horizons. rising compute costs and intensifying competition finally pushed them to raise.
but they raised on their terms. entirely.
ANTHROPIC'S HEAD OF ENGINEERING SAYS THEY JUST SHIPPED THE MOST CAPABLE MODELS THEY HAVE EVER BUILT
Mythos 5 and Fable 5. Fable 5 can run for days on a single goal and get it right on the first pass, on work that used to need an entire team.
Most people use AI to summarize things. The real leverage is the long autonomous task you keep putting off.
Joined my very 1st hackathon, and our entry project won 3rd place. 🏆
We’re building the control layer for safe and programmable AI spending where agents can transact with limits, visibility, and accountability.
Such a great experience being involved in building and developing this project from scratch.
This is just the beginning.
More building ahead! 🚀
