AI labs

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang has dismissed warnings from Anthropic that artificial intelligence could pose an existential threat within the decade, saying there is a '0% chance' AI destroys the world by 2030. His remarks put him at odds with prominent AI safety figures and come as debate intensifies over how seriously to take doomsday predictions from leading AI labs.

Anthropic says its biology lab has already made a significant discovery, according to a report published on September 23, 2026. The company has not detailed what the finding is, but the announcement has prompted speculation about the role of AI in accelerating biological research and what a major breakthrough from an AI lab's in-house biology team could mean for science and drug development.

Anthropic, the AI company behind the Claude chatbot, has drawn attention for operating a biology laboratory, an unusual move for a software firm. The lab is understood to be connected to safety testing, examining whether AI models can assist with dangerous biological work. The story raises questions about how AI developers evaluate biological risks posed by advanced models.

US President Donald Trump has invited Dario Amodei, chief executive of AI company Anthropic, to a private dinner at the White House. The reported invitation signals growing engagement between the administration and leading artificial intelligence firms. Anthropic, one of the leading AI labs behind the Claude models, has previously urged Washington to regulate advanced AI, making the outreach closely watched in tech and policy circles.
