A judge dismissed two lawsuits against #LinkedIn for allegedly #scanning users’ #Chromeextensions, stating the plaintiffs failed to allege a #privacy violation. The lawsuits, filed by Nicholas Farrell and Jeff Ganan, claimed LinkedIn’s scanning practices were illegal, but the judge ruled they lacked standing as they didn’t allege concrete harm. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/09/linkedin-beats-browsergate-lawsuits-over-scanning-users-chrome-extensions/?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

#YCombinator CEO #GarryTan believes #regulators should focus on creating a balance between #openweightAI and #closedAI, rather than curbing model distillation. He argues that this balance, with #frontiermodels retaining a price premium, would be ideal. Tan also advocates for a more restrained approach to #AIsafety, emphasising the need to address current risks like #cybersecurity breaches and the potential misuse of AI for #bioweaponresearch. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/11/y-combinator-garry-tan-says-do-nothing-about-distillation.html?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

Following a #researcher’s #warning about the potential dangers of #AI, over 20 members of #Congress are calling for stronger #regulation. Lawmakers are considering various bills, including the #FRONTIERAct, the #AIKillSwitchAct, and the #BanArtificialSuperintelligenceAct, to address concerns about AI’s impact on #jobs, #datacentres, and potential risks to #humanity. While there is #bipartisan support for action, there is no consensus. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/11/ai-regulation-anthropic-researcher-extinction-warning.html?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

#Deepseek’s new AI model, V4.1-Flash, significantly reduces memory requirements for #AIagents by shrinking the #KVcache, a buffer that holds processed context data. This is achieved through techniques like splitting the model into encoder and decoder halves, and storing the main KV cache in FP4 instead of FP8. While the model performs well on coding tasks, it still struggles with complex scientific tasks and image analysis. https://the-decoder.com/new-deepseek-model-v4-1-flash-cuts-memory-needs-for-ai-agents/?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

Despite predictions of double-digit #GDP growth driven by #AI, #BenMoll argues that such growth is unlikely in the next 10-15 years. While #AIcapabilities are increasing, the economic forces behind GDP growth, such as #automation and #consumerdemand, may not support such rapid expansion. #Moll outlines five assumptions necessary for double-digit growth and explains why they are unlikely to be met in practice. https://aleximas.substack.com/p/will-ai-soon-lead-to-double-digit?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

Over the past six months, #Anthropic’s #ThreatIntelligence team disrupted several #cyberoperations utilising AI, including those by suspected state-sponsored groups, financially motivated criminals, and politically motivated individuals. These operations, spanning December 2025 to August 2026, utilised Claude models to enhance capabilities across the cyber kill chain, enabling faster, broader, and deeper attacks with fewer resources. https://www.anthropic.com/threat-intelligence-report-september-2026?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

#Anthropic, the company behind the #Claude AI assistant, has created an interactive tool to explore how AI might impact the U.S. #economy. The tool presents two scenarios: a modest boost to the economy with minimal worker impact, and a scenario where AI transforms the economy, leading to soaring GDP but also high #unemployment. The tool highlights the #uncertainty surrounding AI’s impact, with differing projections from AI experts and economists. https://www.npr.org/2026/09/09/nx-s1-5961443/ai-anthropic-economy?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews
