Anthropic seeks shareholder approval to give founders majority voting control

Anthropic is requesting shareholder approval for a governance structure that would grant its seven co-founders a combined 50.1% voting stake on most corporate matters. The move would effectively hand majority decision-making power to the founding team ahead of a potential IPO. Such dual-class or founder-control structures are common among tech companies preparing to go public, allowing founders to retain strategic influence despite outside investment. The proposal reflects Anthropic's effort to secure long-term leadership stability as the AI company scales.

Apple, Amazon, and Google AI camera features put to a head-to-head test

A hands-on comparison tested the AI-powered camera notification features from Apple Intelligence for Home, Google's Gemini for Home, and Amazon's Ring. The evaluation used three devices: Aqara's HomeKit-compatible G400, the Nest Doorbell, and the Ring Pro 4K. The test was motivated by longstanding frustrations with generic, unhelpful motion-detection alerts from smart home security cameras.
