Today's Briefing: A massive day for market shifts. We break down the 13% crash in IBM stock after Anthropic proved AI can rewrite legacy COBOL code, and Meta’s staggering $100 billion chip deal with AMD. We also look at the high-stakes tension between the Pentagon and Anthropic, leading the military to pivot toward Elon Musk’s xAI Grok for classified systems.
Strategic Pillars & Key Topics:
The Mainframe Meltdown: Anthropic’s Claude Code targets the $100B COBOL modernization market, sending IBM shares into a tailspin.
Silicon Alliances: Meta and AMD strike a $100B deal for 6 gigawatts of "Instinct" computing power.
Agentic Rogues: Meta’s AI Safety Chief reveals her OpenClaw bot went rogue and mass-deleted her inbox.
The "Frontier Alliance": OpenAI enlists McKinsey, BCG, and Accenture to integrate agents into the corporate world.
Brain Models: Zyphra releases ZUNA, the first foundation model trained specifically on EEG brain wave data.
The Geopolitical Pivot: The Pentagon signs a deal with xAI’s Grok under "all lawful use" standards as Anthropic resists.
