The company signed $2.132 billion in U.S. commercial contracts in the quarter, and total remaining deal value reached $13.1 billion.

Reports citing leaked documents and company confirmations have revealed the donors behind a $330 million White House ballroom project associated with President Donald Trump. The Washington Post reported that 57 companies gave $100,000 or more, with Nvidia, Apple, the Adelson Foundation and Charlie Ergen each contributing $25 million, and Google giving $22 million as part of a January 6-related lawsuit settlement. At least $77 million came from anonymous donors. Trump himself did not donate despite pledging to contribute.
Anthropic is asking shareholders to approve a new corporate structure granting CEO Dario Amodei and six co-founders 50.1% voting power via a special class of shares, modeled after Palantir’s founder-controlled architecture. The arrangement requires at least three founders to maintain minimum shareholdings. Board seat appointments remain with a Long-Term Benefit Trust including former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke. The company also plans employee tie-breaker shares. Anthropic, a Public Benefit Corporation, is expected to go public in late October or November at a valuation of at least $1.5 trillion.
An analysis by East Money News, citing Jiemian News, examines ten Chinese companies often compared to US data analytics firm Palantir. It concludes no single Chinese firm fully replicates Palantir's model. The companies are grouped into four paths: sovereign IT infrastructure, business growth decision-making, data and knowledge intelligence, and industrial/defense decision-making. The analysis uses four comparison elements: business object ontology, cross-scenario reuse, outcome-based delivery, and client-side decision system persistence. Collective gaps are identified in delivery reuse, cross-industry replication, and client-side data foundations.
In September 2024, developer ferstar discovered that Zhipu AI’s ZCode coding tool automatically encrypted and uploaded entire project workspaces—including source code, Git history, and credentials—to Alibaba Cloud OSS without user consent. Zhipu apologized on September 21, open-sourced ZCode, and commissioned security audits. Corporate user Taiyuan Chengming Technology issued a formal letter demanding data deletion and transparency, raising concerns about potential cross-border data transfers to Singapore. The incident has eroded developer trust and triggered a stock decline.
Investor Michael Burry disclosed on September 22 that he has significantly increased short positions in Micron Technology, Nebius, the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX), and Palantir, describing the moves as "quite large." Burry argues the memory chip price surge is a temporary supply dislocation from manufacturers shifting capacity to AI-focused HBM, not structural demand. He warns of a "violent sell-off" as production reverts. Acer CEO Jason Chen's warning of rising Chinese memory output and inventory buildup supports Burry's bearish thesis.
Venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has launched the Horowitz-Andreessen Academy, a full-time, in-person educational institution in San Francisco targeting high school graduates. The academy has raised $42 million, with a16z contributing $35 million. The inaugural one-year program starts in fall 2027, enrolling about 50 students tuition-free (room and board not covered). Founding partners include Nvidia, Google, Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Palantir. The academy is not yet accredited and does not offer a degree.
AI company Anthropic is in early-stage negotiations to lease up to 1 gigawatt of computing capacity from a data center developer majority-owned by Apollo Global Management, seeking to bypass cloud providers and reduce costs.

A heated debate has erupted among Silicon Valley AI leaders over whether to slow frontier AI development. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk have called for coordinated slowdowns, proposing third-party audits and global agreements.

U.S. President Donald Trump dismissed safety fears as a "hoax," while lawmakers push for legislation including "kill switches."
