OpenAI launched a plan almost identical to Anthropic's: users on the $100, $200, or $500 subscription plans receive an equivalent amount of credits for one API organization under their name. Simon Willison, who holds subscriptions to both companies, said this change may lead him to publish some public-facing demos.

The Linux stable kernel fixed a use-after-free vulnerability, CVE-2026-98432, in the IPv4 TCP handshake path on October 11 and 15. The kernel CNA rated it CVSS 3.1 9.8 Critical, affecting versions 4.4 and later. As of October 29, kernels for all Ubuntu versions are still marked as affected, and the default kernels of RHEL 8, 9, and 10 and Amazon Linux 2 have no fix yet. Anthropic said its Claude model wrote, in a lab setting, remote root exploit code targeting servers with a multipath TCP listener, but did not disclose it.

Databricks CEO Ali Ghodsi responded on X to Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy's challenge, saying Snowflake "isn't doing the AI thing," suggesting it obtain model tokens for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and xAI through Databricks, and promoting Unity Gateway, which provides model routing, budget management and access control. Ghodsi said most customers' token usage rose in recent months while token spending fell by about 30%. Ramaswamy had earlier demanded that Databricks disclose data such as growth excluding pass-through inference revenue, free cash flow and profit margins, and responded by saying, "I asked about revenue, I'm not here to contribute revenue."

Avante has completed a $30 million Series A funding round led by Frist Cressey Ventures, bringing total funding to $40 million, with the funds to be used for global expansion and agent platform development. The company has launched a beta version of Ava Agents that runs in the background and outputs for teams to review, and says it has more than 70 customer accounts within 18 months of launch, with the platform covering more than 385,000 employees and dependents. Its technology calls models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google rather than developing its own foundation models.

IDC partnered with Anthropic to connect IDC Quanta to Claude through an MCP connector, enabling customers to directly access IDC's forecasts, market data, and research within the Claude app, Cowork, and the Microsoft Office add-in, generating cited analyses based on more than 15 billion data points. IDC is also rolling out Claude company-wide: engineers used Claude Code to cut the rebuild of an internal data warehouse from an estimated three months to three weeks, reduce code reviews from five days to about 30 minutes, and shorten planning sprints from three weeks to three days.

Based on a recent webinar with Google Cloud, Anthropic presents a three-lever framework—control, track, prove—for managing Claude Code costs on Google Cloud and measuring return on investment. The Claude apps gateway supports setting daily/weekly/monthly spending limits by user, IdP group, or organization, alerts within the CLI when usage reaches 75% and 95%, and returns 429 once the cap is hit. On the Google Cloud side, native capabilities include per-project billing, budget alerts, Spend caps (preview), BigQuery export, and quotas.

OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Terra, focused on visual reasoning, computer operation, and writing. It is now available to Plus, Pro, Enterprise, and Edu users of ChatGPT Work and Codex, as well as via API. The standard API charges $1, $0.05, and $5 per million input, cached input, and output tokens respectively, 50% lower than GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol. Anthropic has submitted an S-1 to the SEC to list on Nasdaq under the ticker "ANT"; first-half revenue was $16.286 billion, with net loss widening to $80.748 billion. Apple released the iPad mini (A20 Pro) the same day, starting at 128GB, with the Wi-Fi model starting at 5,499 yuan, on sale November 6.

OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, which the company says combines detailed visual reasoning with precise computer operation and offers clearer, more natural writing, a marked improvement over GPT-5.6 Terra. The model is priced at $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens, roughly half the price of GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol, and about 10 times that of GPT-6 Luna. Simon Willison notes that Terra's position in OpenAI's model lineup is similar to Anthropic's Sonnet—neither the cheapest nor the most expensive—making it harder to judge when choosing.

The two also discussed the cybersecurity controversy surrounding open-weight models, noting that no large-scale exploitation occurred after the disclosure of the PHP2Shell vulnerability, and talked about Anthropic not hiring junior employees as well as Florian's experience using Muse to handle everyday tasks such as shopping.

At CASPA's 35th Annual Conference, SemiAnalysis founder Dylan Patel and Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon discussed the outlook for AI infrastructure investment, arguing that with the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield breaking above 5% and unsecured bonds from emerging cloud service providers yielding close to 15%, financing capacity is becoming a key constraint on expansion. The two judged that substrates and memory are bottlenecks harder to scale than power, that HBM requires roughly 3 to 4 times as many wafers as DDR5, and that if new capacity is concentrated in releases after 2028, memory prices and profit margins could come under pressure. Nvidia still supports its pricing through performance gains, but Google TPU, Amazon Trainium, and the custom chips of OpenAI and Anthropic are eroding its share and bargaining power.

OpenAI published 722 mathematics papers at once, covering number theory, geometry, and theoretical computer science, claiming progress on problems such as the Riemann Hypothesis, Catalan's constant, and the Kakeya conjecture, without peer review. Fields Medalist Hugo Duminil-Copin said 16 problems related to his research had been flattened by AI, and some doctoral students face their topics being covered and their degrees affected. The article also mentions an Anthropic researcher claiming to have disproved the Jacobian conjecture, and Shing-Tung Yau leading the establishment of a mathematics and artificial intelligence laboratory alliance.

In an a16z interview, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said that even with roughly $220 billion in capital expenditure in 2026, AWS will still be unable to meet a large amount of customer demand: its main compute capacity for 2026 is already sold out, most of its 2027 capacity is booked, and a considerable portion of 2028 capacity has also received customer commitments. He described current AI demand as dumbbell-shaped—at one end are foundation model labs and a handful of fast-growing applications, and at the other are enterprises using AI to cut costs and improve efficiency—and said inference costs still need to fall substantially to drive widespread enterprise adoption. Jassy also mentioned that AWS Bedrock has integrated OpenAI models, and that both OpenAI and Anthropic have made multi-year, multi-gigawatt-scale commitments to use Trainium.
