from Tech Gumbo · host Haggai Davis

News and Updates: AI Glossary for Everyone: TechCrunch published a plain-English glossary defining essential AI terms like LLMs, tokens, hallucinations, agents, and RAMageddon, helping everyday readers keep pace with the industry's evolving vocabulary. Cyber Insurers Prioritize Speed: Insurers now evaluate how fast companies detect, patch, and recover from breaches rather than just static defenses, as AI shrinks the window between vulnerability discovery and exploitation. Big Tech Flips on AI Jobs: CEOs who once predicted massive AI-driven layoffs now emphasize job creation and productivity, with executives expecting significant headcount cuts dropping from 46% to 20%. Free AI Computing Credits War: OpenAI and Anthropic are showering startups with millions in free credits, letting some founders delay fundraising as model makers battle for future enterprise customers. Anthropic Fable Ban Lifted: The Trump administration reversed its weekslong export ban on Anthropic's Fable model, igniting fierce debate over how much the federal government should control frontier AI access. Claude Sonnet 5 Launches: Anthropic released Sonnet 5, a cheaper agentic model approaching Opus 4.8 performance with default cybersecurity safeguards, fewer hallucinations, and stronger resistance to prompt injection attacks.
