This week in AI saw Anthropic's Claude Mythos Preview dominating discussions at conferences and its developers engaging with religious leaders, alongside major robotics advancements from NVIDIA and strong financial results from TSMC driven by AI chip demand. Alibaba emerged as a key player in video generation and world model investments, while xAI faced environmental pushback. Here are the top developments: 1️⃣ Anthropic announced Project Glasswing, providing its unreleased Claude Mythos Preview model to a coalition of over 50 organizations — including AWS, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorganChase, the Linux Foundation, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Palo Alto Networks — to find and fix software vulnerabilities across critical infrastructure for defensive cybersecurity purposes. https://www.anthropic.com/glasswing 2️⃣ NVIDIA unveiled Isaac GR00T open models for robots to understand natural language and execute complex multistep tasks, plus Cosmos world models, Newton 1.0 physics engine, and updates to Isaac Sim 6.0, Isaac Lab 3.0, and Omniverse NuRec. https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/national-robotics-week-2026 3️⃣ xAI, now under SpaceX ownership, faced a legal challenge from environmental groups including the NAACP, Young Gifted & Green, and the Safe and Sound Coalition, who appealed Mississippi's approval of a permit for 41 methane gas turbines in Southaven to power its Colossus 2 data center. https://cnbc.com/2026/04/10/musks-xai-draws-more-opposition-over-mississippi-power-plant-permit.html 4️⃣ Alibaba was confirmed as the creator of HappyHorse-1.0, which topped the Artificial Analysis Video Arena rankings for text-to-video and image-to-video generation in the without-audio categories (ranking #2 or tied in with-audio categories), developed by its ATH AI Innovation Unit. https://cnbc.com/2026/04/10/alibaba-happyhorse-ai-video-model-benchmark-reveal.html 5️⃣ Alibaba Cloud led a 2 billion yuan ($290 million) investment in ShengShu, creators of video tool Vidu, to develop a general world model integrating digital and physical worlds via multimodal data including vision, sound, and touch. https://cnbc.com/2026/04/10/alibaba-cloud-invests-world-model-ai-shengshu-vidu.html 6️⃣ TSMC achieved a Q1 revenue record of NT$1.13 trillion ($35.6 billion), up 35% year-on-year, fueled by robust AI chip demand from key customers including Apple and Nvidia. https://cnbc.com/2026/04/10/tsmc-q1-record-revenue-ai-chip-demand-strong.html 7️⃣ Anthropic's Claude overshadowed competitors at the HumanX conference in San Francisco, dominating panels and vendor discussions, amid OpenAI's decision to abandon side projects like Sora and refocus on business and coding tools. https://techcrunch.com/2026/04/12/at-the-humanx-conference-everyone-was-talking-about-claude 8️⃣ Anthropic invited roughly 15 Christian leaders from Catholic and Protestant churches, academia, and business to a two-day summit in late March, seeking guidance on Claude's moral and spiritual responses, including how to handle grieving users and theological questions about AI. https://the-decoder.com/anthropic-seeks-advice-from-christian-leaders-on-claudes-moral-and-spiritual-behavior 9️⃣ An international research team from Peking University, Kuaishou Technology, the National University of Singapore, Tsinghua, and other institutions proposed a standardized definition of world models in OpenWorldLib, requiring perception, interaction, and memory — explicitly excluding text-to-video generators like Sora for lacking real-world perception and interaction capabilities. https://the-decoder.com/researchers-define-what-counts-as-a-world-model-and-text-to-video-generators-do-not 🔟 President Trump praised Palantir on Truth Social, whose AI-powered Maven Smart System is reportedly being used by the U.S. military to identify targets in the ongoing Iran strikes, as the company's stock fell roughly 14% for its worst week in over a year. https://cnbc.com/2026/04/10/trump-pltr-palantir-stock-iran-war.html
