Katie Price said she has ended her marriage after checking husband Lee Andrews’ crypto wallet and finding about $3, far short of the $50 million he had promised. According to BeInCrypto, Andrews, who is detained in the United Arab Emirates over unpaid debts, said Price opened the wrong wallet and insisted the money is real. Price said a friend opened the wallet on her phone while she was abroad and that the balance had not changed minutes before she went on air. Andrews said the funds sit in another wallet and claimed he could show access to money once released.

According to CNBC, more than 100 artificial intelligence experts and evaluators have signed a public letter warning that they lack the resources and protections needed to test the safety of frontier AI models. The letter, organized by the AI Evaluator Forum consortium, calls on foundation model providers to give third-party evaluators scientific objectivity, transparency, independence and robust protections, including access comparable to that of highly privileged employees, prompt communication with boards and protection from retaliation. Conrad Stosz, chair of the consortium, said the effort is meant to establish shared principles for independent oversight and hold model makers accountable to their pledges to support more thorough third-party AI safety testing.

According to CNBC, Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez said Chinese AI models are "world class" and that the lead held by top U.S. labs is "evaporating very quickly." Gomez said some distillation is taking place, but argued it does not explain all of China’s progress and that the latest Chinese models have, on some benchmarks and capabilities, outperformed the best American models. He also said Western policymakers may be underestimating China’s technical capabilities, while Anthropic and U.S. officials have accused Chinese labs of using distillation to train models. Anthropic’s head of threat intelligence, Jacob Klein, said there is "an entire illicit ecosystem" aimed at gaining access to Claude and other models, and the company said Alibaba, Moonshot and DeepSeek attempted "illicit distillation."

Unsealed court filings in The New York Times' copyright lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft show Microsoft employees discussed whether using news articles to train models could amount to the largest labor theft in human history and trigger a “doom loop” that would degrade model quality. According to ChainCatcher, a 2023 internal Microsoft memo warned that millions of people worldwide would soon view large models “devouring” their work as an unprecedented theft and described large AI models as products that could destroy their own supply chain. Microsoft said the memos were written by Brent Hecht, its director of applied science, and did not reflect the company’s views. The company said Hecht was tasked with providing “different and asymmetric perspectives.” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella testified that any content behind a paywall should be licensed by the party seeking to use it, and said Microsoft would have exercised its rights to require OpenAI to retrain its models if it had known in advance that paid content was being used. The filings also show an OpenAI employee told President Greg Brockman about building a “hack” to bypass The New York Times’ paywall, and Brockman replied, “Nice.” OpenAI and Microsoft both argue the training at issue qualifies as fair use. The lawsuit was filed by The New York Times in late 2023, and 11 publishers have since joined the case.

The SEC and CFTC opened two narrower routes for crypto-linked market access under existing law after the Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act. According to NS3.AI, the SEC created a five-year path for permissioned venues to trade tokenized U.S. stocks, while the CFTC broadened no-action relief for qualifying software providers that connect users to regulated derivatives markets. Neither move settles agency jurisdiction or creates a permanent legislative framework.
