1. Anthropic Warns of 'Catastrophic Risk' From AI in Filing Showing $80.7 Billion Loss
-- The Claude developer filed to list on the Nasdaq under the ticker ANT, disclosing a first-half loss of more than $80.7 billion against $16.3 billion in revenue and $112.4 billion in cash, and warning that advanced AI could pose 'catastrophic or existential risks to humanity', the BBC reported.
-- The filing hands public investors the first audited view of a frontier lab's cost base, listing roughly 90 pages of risk factors that name cloud-supplier reliance, strained Taiwanese chip supply and US-concentrated data centres; a weak debut would make equity a costlier funding route for an industry that spent more than $1 trillion on AI in the past year, with OpenAI expected to follow early next year.

2. Judge Rules DOJ Unlawfully Fired Epstein Prosecutor Maurene Comey
-- A federal judge found the Justice Department unlawfully dismissed Maurene Comey, the daughter of ex-FBI director James Comey and a prosecutor on the Epstein case, and ordered her retroactively reinstated to her assistant U.S. attorney post, CNBC reported.
-- The order hands other career prosecutors removed by the administration a court route to reclaim their jobs and leaves the department defending its handling of politically sensitive staffing ahead of the November 3 midterms.
