The UK government has announced a strategic partnership with OpenAI focused on joint research into AI safety and potential investments in British AI infrastructure, including new data centers. OpenAI may also expand its London office. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said the goal is to position the UK as a global leader in AI. According to Technology Secretary Peter Kyle, the government wants AI to drive improvements in healthcare, education, and economic growth. Plans include investing £1 billion in computing power. The coalition is banking on AI to boost productivity by 1.5 percent per year, which could add £47 billion to the economy over the next decade.

“The result of this is the model’s not just going to be better than a physicist. It’s going to be better than a superposition of somebody who’s at the top in physics, computer science and data science.”

That’s how Jonathan Siddharth, CEO of Turing AI, describes the shift happening in advanced AI model training. Instead of relying on low-cost clickworkers, companies like Scale AI, Toloka, and Turing are now turning to highly skilled experts in fields like physics, biology, software engineering, and finance. The goal is to create complex, domain-specific tasks that mirror real human thought processes - whether that means writing code, validating physical theories, or analyzing simulations. These specialized datasets are then used to train the new reasoning models at major companies like OpenAI.

Nvidia announced at the RISC-V Summit China that it will open up its CUDA platform to support RISC-V processors. For the first time, CUDA will extend beyond x86 and Arm to include an open instruction set architecture. According to Nvidia, RISC-V CPUs can now serve as the central processing component in CUDA systems, including Jetson modules and specialized edge devices. The company showcased a reference architecture pairing RISC-V CPUs for operating system and logic tasks with Nvidia GPUs for compute workloads and DPUs for networking. This move could help expand CUDA's reach in markets like China.

Anthropic has reportedly made it harder to use its Claude Code AI tool, with Max plan subscribers ($200 per month) now running into usage caps much sooner than before. Many users on GitHub say they are suddenly getting blocked after just a handful of requests. There has been no official announcement about the change. When asked by TechCrunch, Anthropic only said they're working on a solution for slow response times. The lack of clear communication has left many paying users frustrated, especially since the variable limit structure - which shifts depending on server load - is already confusing.
