Summary:

Artificial intelligence entered a new geopolitical phase as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis met with world leaders at the G7 Summit in France to discuss global AI standards and a potential alliance among trusted nations. At the same time, tensions around Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 export restrictions intensified, with cybersecurity leaders and researchers calling for the U.S. government to reverse its decision.

Meanwhile, SpaceX officially acquired AI coding startup Cursor in a $60 billion stock deal, creating one of the most powerful AI software ecosystems under Elon Musk's expanding empire. Chinese lab Z AI released GLM-5.2, bringing open-weight models closer than ever to frontier systems like GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella renewed his warning that companies should focus on building proprietary learning loops rather than depending entirely on frontier models, while Microsoft's Copilot Cowork prepares to support cheaper alternatives like DeepSeek. Meta faced growing employee unrest, OpenAI's losses ballooned to nearly $39 billion, and ChatGPT lost majority market share for the first time since launch.

Today's developments suggest that the AI race is no longer about chatbots—it is becoming a battle over ecosystems, agents, sovereignty, and ownership of intelligence itself.
