Anthropic shuts down Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export‑control warning
Anthropic disabled access to its Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 models after the Trump administration, via the Commerce Department, warned that foreign nationals could exploit the systems. The move followed alerts from Amazon and other firms about a potential jailbreak that could aid cyber‑security attacks. Anthropic declined the administration’s request for a voluntary shutdown but complied with the order.

Humanoid Robots Get to Work at German BMW Factory [Video]
BMW is extending its AI‑powered humanoid robot program from the Spartanburg plant to the Leipzig iFACTORY, deploying Hexagon’s AEON robots to assemble electric vehicles. The earlier Figure 02 robots helped position sheet metal for welding on more than 30,000 X3s, proving the concept. AEON units use "Physical AI" to sense their surroundings, make independent decisions and avoid obstacles, allowing smoother integration into existing production lines. BMW frames the rollout as a step toward fully digitized, AI‑enhanced manufacturing.

AI Agents Need Planning, Stateful Multi‑agent Architectures
Most “AI agents” today are just LLMs calling tools in a loop. LLM → Tool → LLM. That works for simple tasks. But it breaks when workflows become long-running, multi-step, or stateful. A new open-source project from LangChain — Deep Agents — explores a...
