Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is pushing back on claims that his artificial intelligence company is too “woke” following a wave of criticism from the White House’s AI czar David Sacks.

Alphabet shares are rising in Thursday's after-hours session after Anthropic announced plans to expand use of Google Cloud technologies.

Anthropic is expanding its deal with Google to use as many as one million of the tech giant's artificial intelligence chips, worth tens of billions of dollars, as the startup races to advance its AI systems in the competitive market.

Claude's memory will now be available to individual paid users in addition to users on Enterprise and Team plans.

Amodei’s response comes after last week’s dogpiling on Anthropic from AI leaders and top members of the Trump administration, including AI czar David Sacks and White House senior policy advisor for AI Sriram Krishnan -- all accusing the AI giant of stoking fears to damage the industry.

Anthropic introduces Claude Code on the Web, a browser-based AI coding tool that lets enterprise developers run secure, sandboxed sessions and manage GitHub projects.

Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG /NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been the best performing stock amongst the Big 3 U.S. hyperscalers and broader Magnificent Seven cohort this year. Its year-to-date gains of more than 33% have led the stock towards new all-time highs, assuaging previous investors’ concerns about entrenched AI disruption to its business model.

The new feature, previously reserved for Team and Enterprise plans, allows Claude to remember details from past conversations — putting it on par with OpenAI’s ChatGPT in long-term recall capabilities.
