The post Zuckerberg Breaks 3-Year Silence On X (Twitter) With AI Announcement appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Mark Zuckerberg broke a three-year silence on X (Twitter) on Thursday to unveil Muse Spark 1.1 and the Meta Model API, the company’s first paid platform for outside developers.

OpenAI moved GPT-5.6 to general availability on July 9, 2026, shipping three tiers instead of one model. Sol is $5/$30 per 1M tokens, Terra is $2.50/$15, and Luna is $1/$6. Sol sets the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index at 80, 2.8 points above Claude Fable 5, and reaches 62.6% on OSWorld 2.0 using 85% fewer output tokens than Opus 4.8. The substantive developer change is Programmatic Tool Calling, which runs model-written JavaScript in an isolated V8 runtime to orchestrate tools without returning every intermediate result to the model. Clio reports a 38% cut in prompt tokens, PlayCo 63.5% fewer total tokens. The gaps are real too: Fable 5 still leads the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, GDPval-AA v2, and Toolathlon, and Claude Mythos 5 leads SWE-Bench Pro by roughly 15 points.

The post White House Says it Received no Democratic Response Related to SEC, CFTC Vacancies appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. White House officials claimed that they had “not received names” in response to requests to Senate Democrats for potential commissioners to two US financial regulatory agencies. In a Thursday letter to US Senate majority leader John Thune and minority leader Chuck Schumer, White House officials said that they had already solicited names from Senate Democrats for the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The leadership panels of both financial agencies are understaffed, with only Republican members nominated and confirmed by the Senate. The letter came in response to a June 10 request from 12 Senate Democrats over staffing concerns at US federal agencies, including the SEC and CFTC. Although US President Donald Trump has put forward some Democratic names for positions at agencies, including the National Labor

The post OpenAI Vs Anthropic IPO: How They Compare And What We Know appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Golden phone with IPO stocks purchase app on the screen on wooden table in office. OpenAI and Anthropic both filed initial public offering prospectuses in June. Getty OpenAI and Anthropic are both planning to go public. However, as the second half of 2026 begins, chances are increasing that both companies could delay their IPOs beyond the original fourth quarter 2026 target. In my view, the two companies are competing with each other to be the first one to have a successful IPO; yet both companies seem to be delaying and trying new tactics to strengthen their IPO. For example, OpenAI is reportedly offering to sell 5% of the company to the U.S. government. Meanwhile, the U.S. forced Anthropic to withdraw its latest Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models to prevent foreign nationals—including Anthropic employees who were foreign nationals—from accessing its newest models, citing national

In recent months, OpenAI has also shut down the video generation app Sora and paused plans for a ChatGPT "adult mode" as it works to reduce "side quests" and catch up with Anthropic on productivity features.
