Last Week in Tech – Anthropic's $900B Round, AI Guardrails Stripped in Minutes, and Trellix's Source-Code Breach

from Tech Talks With Kinsoft

Your Monday catch-up, with a security lens. This week: Anthropic is reportedly closing a $30B round at a $900B-plus valuation and projecting its first-ever quarterly operating profit — even as SpaceX filings reveal eye-watering compute bills. The politics heat up as President Trump abruptly cancels an AI executive order. A worrying safety finding shows researchers stripping the guardrails off major AI models in minutes. And on the breach desk: security vendor Trellix has attackers in its own source code, drug-delivery manufacturer West Pharmaceutical recovers from a crippling attack, and education-sector attacks jump again.Concerned your security tools themselves could be a target?
