Anthropic issued a DMCA notice to GitHub to remove a repository that contained leaked Claude Code client source code. The notice also listed nearly one hundred forks of that repository. GitHub’s automated processing interpreted the request as covering a broader network of about 8,100 similar forks, many of which were legitimate copies of Anthropic’s official public Claude Code repository. The over‑broad takedowns sparked backlash from developers, prompting Anthropic to ask GitHub to limit the removals to the specifically named URLs and to restore the other repositories. Leer más

An AI model named Claude was used to create a new version of the open‑source library chardet. The process relied on metadata from earlier releases and on the model’s training on publicly available code, raising questions about whether the new code is a derivative work.

Rather than competing directly in hardware, Meta wants its software platform to become the Android of robotics, mirroring moves by Apple and Tesla that are also exploring home robots. Leer más
