📸 Instagram Will Alert Parents if Teens Search for Suicide

Instagram is adding a new warning feature for parents. The app will notify them if their teen repeatedly searches for words related to suicide or self-harm in a short time. The alert will also provide helpful guidance for parents on how to talk to their kids about these issues.

This feature starts next week for accounts with parental controls in the U.S., UK, Australia, and Canada. More countries will get the update later.

💬 OpenAI Raises Record $110B from Amazon, Nvidia, SoftBank

OpenAI announced on Friday a $110 billion funding round at a $730 billion pre-money valuation, the largest private financing deal ever recorded. The round includes $50 billion from Amazon, $30 billion from Nvidia, and $30 billion from SoftBank, with additional financial investors expected to join as the round progresses.

🔥 Anthropic Refused to Give the Military Unlimited Access to Their AI

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei expressed concern that the government could use AI for "mass surveillance" and "fully autonomous weapons," and said such demands are impossible. According to him, today's systems are not ready for that.

As a result, Donald Trump ordered all federal agencies to stop using Anthropic AI. The company was labeled a "supply chain risk," which automatically bans any other Pentagon contractors from using Anthropic products in their work.

✅ OpenAI took Anthropic's place. Even though OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says the deal keeps the ban on surveillance and autonomous weapons, there is a big difference. OpenAI agreed to use AI "for all lawful purposes," and any disagreements will be settled under "specific legal and political rules." Anthropic's position meant the company itself would decide how to understand the limits.

💡 So what does this mean?

The "AI revolution" is changing not just IT, finance, and education—the military is also quickly learning to use these new tools. And the future of AI startups will probably depend even more on how willing they are to work with the government.

AI in the hands of the government...

🐉 Game of Thrones Movie in Development

Warner Bros. is preparing a "Game of Thrones" movie with "House of Cards" showrunner and "Andor" writer Beau Willimon writing the screenplay.

The story could revolve around Aegon I, the legendary Targaryen king who spawned a dynasty.

Of course, whether the "Game of Thrones" movie sees the light of day depends on many factors. Not everything "Thrones" that enters development gets greenlit. HBO developed several spinoffs with Martin before deciding to make "House of the Dragon" and eventually "Knight of the Seven Kingdoms."
