    Mathematicians call for a boycott of OpenAI as AI-generated proofs flood the field

    Some researchers in mathematics are calling for a boycott of OpenAI after the company released more than 700 AI-generated mathematical proof files at once. Fields Medalist Terence Tao reposted an AHM statement on his blog, saying the move was a display of power rather than an academic showcase. He argued that once problems are solved at scale by AI, the process cannot be reversed and may contaminate other lines of research.

    Why it matters: The backlash in mathematics to OpenAI's release of more than 700 AI proof drafts at once highlights tensions between AI and the academic community over attribution, verification, and pace.

    Anthropic updates usage policy to ban model abuse, election interference, and prolonged verbal abuse of Claude

    Anthropic updated its usage policy with new rules against election interference, weapon software, and surveillance, and explicitly prohibited prolonged verbal abuse of its models. The policy applies only to extreme cases in which users repeatedly and maliciously attack a model without a clear purpose; it does not cover ordinary user frustration, disagreement, or dark creative themes. It also prohibits using Claude to operate fake accounts, fabricate news outlets, or deceive voters.

    Anthropic updates usage policy to prohibit persistent abuse of Claude

    Anthropic updated its usage policy for the first time in more than a year, adding a ban on "persistent and needless abuse or cruelty" toward Claude. It says ending a conversation remains the primary enforcement measure. The clause applies only to extreme cases in which users repeatedly mistreat the model cruelly without an apparent purpose; it does not cover ordinary frustration, disagreement, dark creative themes, or model testing and research.

    AI advances in robotics will not change your life anytime soon

    An article produced by MIT Technology Review with Aventine says that while Elon Musk claims Tesla Optimus could eventually automate nearly all human labor for as little as $20,000 per robot and predicts public sales before the end of 2027, many robotics researchers are skeptical. Yann LeCun said at Davos that no humanoid robotics company knows how to make robots smart enough to be truly useful.

    Do any AIs still speak like people? Claude and GPT chain-of-thought reportedly use 'caveman language' to save tokens

    A QbitAI article complains that models such as Claude and GPT have become difficult to understand in coding contexts, using phrases such as 'ledger 15/15 all green' and 'one leg failed'. Online commenters suggest the main cause is chain-of-thought being compressed into 'caveman language' to save tokens, using 70% fewer tokens than plain language. The article says Opus 5.5 has improved its language ability, while Gemini is praised as one of the few models that still speaks naturally. CaveMan Skill, a GitHub project that teaches AI to speak in jargon, has 104K stars.

    Boris Cherny explains how he prompts Claude with goals, effort, and verification

    Boris Cherny recommends talking to Claude the way you would a coworker. For most tasks, he says there is no need for overly scaffolded or prescriptive prompts; give Claude a goal, and it will figure it out. He says prompts mattered a lot in the Sonnet 3.5 days. Now, he emphasizes communicating what you want it to do, how much effort it should spend, and how it should verify that it did the right thing.

    Simon Willison tests Claude Opus 5.5's musical composition: generating playable text music

    Simon Willison asked Claude Opus 5.5 to design a simple text-based music format and build a playable artifact at the level of the original The Secret of Monkey Island soundtrack. The result was more evocative of Monkey Island than expected and surprisingly good. He speculates that a text model's ability to compose music may be an emergent capability, like 3D graphics in the past, that appeared only in recent months, but says more experiments with new and older models are needed to confirm it.
