IN TODAY’S NEWSLETTER:

'GAMBLE': The Anthropic researcher who is leaving the company over fears the technology is gambling with human life told Fox News there is hope that we can avoid the chance it could destroy humankind within the next decade.

SMART FLEX: Apple on Wednesday unveiled a highly anticipated foldable version of the iPhone along with other consumer tech devices embedded with artificial intelligence in the first major product event under the leadership of new CEO John Ternus.

NEXT-GEN SIDEKICK: Meta on Tuesday rolled out a long-planned personal artificial intelligence agent aimed at helping users complete daily tasks.

THREAT ALERT: Anthropic said Thursday it disrupted several attempts this year by researchers to use its AI models for biological research that could potentially aid the development of biological weapons, prompting the company to ban accounts and strengthen its safeguards.

RACE TO NOWHERE: Golf fans who tune into this week's New Mexico Open broadcast will be introduced to a new commentator by the name of Duff Foreman.

SILICON HANDSHAKE: The federal government under President Donald Trump reached an agreement with OpenAI on a landmark deal to equip government employees with the most cutting-edge artificial intelligence models at a major discount, Fox News Digital has learned.

'SEAT AT THE TABLE': A GOP insider making the conservative case for regulating artificial intelligence development predicts President Donald Trump's full-throated support for data center expansion will soon change after he hears from the American people on the midterm campaign trail.

THE NEW GOLD RUSH: As Americans weigh the costs and benefits of massive data centers emerging in their towns to fuel the artificial intelligence boom, the country's reddest state could be poised to capitalize on billions of dollars in investment that other states are increasingly reluctant to welcome.

AISLE BE WATCHING: Artificial intelligence is making its way into the grocery aisle, and it could have an unexpected effect on how much you spend. You grab a grocery cart, start working through your list and notice a screen on the handle offering directions, coupons and product suggestions. It can keep a running total and may even let you skip the checkout line. That sounds convenient. It also gives the store a new way to reach you while you are deciding what goes into your cart.
