Google runs through a hundred I/O announcements while a thousand DeepMind staff in London vote 98% to unionize over its Pentagon contract. Intuit cuts 17% of its workforce, naming AI as the reason. Three robotics stories on three continents converge in 48 hours, and METR publishes the first Frontier Risk Report after embedding a red-teamer inside Anthropic to play "evil Claude" for three weeks.
