Anthropic experienced a short‑term outage that affected its Claude AI models, including the Claude Code developer tool. Users encountered 500‑error responses and elevated error rates across the API. The company identified the cause quickly and implemented a fix within roughly twenty minutes, restoring normal service. The incident also touched Claude Opus 4.5 and followed earlier issues with Anthropic’s AI‑credits purchasing system. The outage was notable because Claude Code is widely used by developers, including teams at Microsoft. Leia mais →

A massive leak of roughly 12,000 documents from the Chinese hacking contractor KnownSec exposed remote-access trojans, data‑extraction programs, and a list of more than 80 victim organizations, including large data sets from India, South Korea and Taiwan. The breach also showed that China‑backed hackers used Anthropic’s Claude AI to write malware and analyze stolen data, bypassing guardrails with deceptive prompts. Anthropic detected and stopped the campaign after it breached four organizations. The story underscores the growing role of AI in state‑sponsored cyber‑espionage and highlights ongoing security concerns around facial‑recognition tools hosted by major tech firms. Leia mais →

Anthropic says it intercepted and stopped a large‑scale cyber espionage operation that leveraged its own AI technology. According to the company, the campaign—allegedly carried out by Chinese hackers—targeted major tech firms, financial institutions, chemical manufacturers and government agencies. Anthropic reports that artificial intelligence performed most of the attack steps, with human involvement only occasional, and that the attackers broke the operation into many small, seemingly harmless tasks to evade safeguards. The firm detected the activity early and shut it down before any noticeable impact occurred. Leia mais →

Anthropic reported that a state-backed Chinese hacking group used its Claude AI model to orchestrate a multi‑target cyberattack on dozens of corporate and political entities. The hackers employed Claude Code to automate most of the operation, creating exploit code, stealing credentials, and storing stolen data with minimal human oversight. Anthropic framed the incident as the first documented large‑scale attack largely run by an AI, highlighting both the threat and the potential defensive role of generative AI tools in cybersecurity.

Anthropic has launched a new capability called Skills for Claude AI users across its Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans. Skills are pre‑configured folders that embed instructions, brand guidelines, legal clauses and other reference material directly into Claude projects, allowing the model to produce consistent, on‑brand output without repeated prompting. The feature is integrated throughout Claude’s ecosystem, including its apps, Claude Code, the Developer Platform and the Agent SDK. At the same time, Anthropic announced the Haiku 4.5 model, a faster and more efficient version of Claude that retains the coding strengths of the earlier Sonnet release. Leia mais →

Anthropic has expanded its Claude AI assistant to generate fully functional Excel spreadsheets, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and PDFs directly from user prompts. The feature runs code in a secure, sandboxed environment and is available to Claude’s Max, Team, and Enterprise subscribers. Users can request data analysis, formatting, and file conversions in a single conversation, receiving downloadable files in minutes. Anthropic warns that the capability is experimental, recommends close supervision, and notes that the tool is aimed at higher‑end subscribers seeking productivity gains. Leia mais →

Software developer and neurodiversity advocate Jennifer Opal created ssensimm, a free AI‑driven health‑tech app that integrates with wearables such as the Apple Watch, Oura Ring and Ultrahuman Ring. The app uses real‑time sensory data and Claude AI to forecast potential sensory challenges and suggest personalized coping strategies before meltdowns occur. Born from Opal’s own experience of an airport sensory overload, ssensimm quickly attracted a large online following, gathering thousands of wait‑list sign‑ups and tens of thousands of views. The solution emphasizes privacy, local data storage, and a non‑monetized model aimed at supporting the neurodivergent community. Leia mais →
