OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind sign letter to prevent AI-developed biological weapons

This is one of the rare AI safety issues where OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Microsoft AI, and biotech groups are publicly asking for the same rules.

The warning is not about today’s chatbots instantly creating bioweapons, but future AI lowering the knowledge barrier around dangerous biological material.

Groups like the International Gene Synthesis Consortium already support voluntary checks, but the letter argues that optional screening still leaves supplier gaps.

The issue now goes beyond jobs and misinformation, with major AI leaders treating biosecurity as a serious risk for the next generation of models.

BREAKING: Iran Says Hormuz Is Closed Again

“Iran said it has closed the Strait of Hormuz for shipping transit due to what it called Israel's violation of a ceasefire, even as Pakistan said US-Iran talks were set to open in Switzerland on Sunday.

Negotiations on a peace deal were meant to start on Friday, but were delayed after fighting between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon intensified. Iranian state TV reported Saturday that a delegation was now en route to the talks, which Pakistan's foreign ministry said will open on Sunday.”

Market rallied not once, but TWICE, with over +100 basis point days over the last week on news that a peace deal was finalized. Can we plz stop giving Trump “Truths” total control over the direction of the market ???? I beg of you. This will only amplify the inevitable drawdown more severe when the Fed hikes later this year.
