Forbes releases its list of top artificial intelligence companies. Not surprisingly, atop the funding category you’ll find OpenAI ($182.6 billion), Anthropic ($60 billion), and Databricks ($20 billion). In a challenge to Figma, Anthropic launches Claude Design, which converts conversational prompts into prototypes, designs, slideshows and marketing materials. The new AI tool arrives after Anthropic decided its frontier model Claude Mythos Preview was too risky to release to the public, a signal that deployments are becoming more security-driven. These are some of the headlines that caught our attention.
