Claude Completes First Computer-Checked Proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem

Anthropic agents wrote 13 million lines of Lean in 11 days — as OpenAI commits $1 billion in Daybreak cyber access and GPT-6 Astra goes live in GitHub Copilot.

Anthropic reported that Claude produced the first complete, computer-checked formalization of Fermat’s Last Theorem in the Lean theorem prover. Working largely autonomously over 11 days, multi-agent teams wrote roughly 13 million lines of Lean and proved about 29,500 intermediate theorems, relying only on Lean’s standard axioms.

OpenAI separately expanded its cyber-defense program with Daybreak for Frontline Defenders, a $1 billion commitment of subsidized Daybreak access, training, and support aimed at operators of essential services. GitHub also made GPT-6 Astra generally available in Copilot for Pro+, Max, Business, and Enterprise users across major IDEs and surfaces.

Together the releases frame a weekend in which machine-checked mathematics, governed cyber tools for frontline defenders, and frontier coding models moved from research and limited access into broader product channels.

Sony and Warner Sue Anthropic Over Music Training Data

Major publishers allege a “brazen campaign” of torrenting and scraping — as DeepSeek open-sources its plugin-first agent harness and Meta’s Muse Glimmer 30B pushes local agentic models under Apache 2.0.

Sony Music Publishing, Warner Chappell and allied publishers filed suit in the Northern District of California against Anthropic, CEO Dario Amodei, and co-founder Benjamin Mann, alleging illegal torrenting, scraping, and downloading of copyrighted compositions to train Claude. The complaint seeks statutory damages and an accounting of training data.

On the open-source side, DeepSeek’s Harness (dsh) remains the week’s standout agent runtime — MIT-licensed, everything-is-a-plugin, and model-agnostic. Meta’s Muse Glimmer, a 30B open-weight agentic model under Apache 2.0, continues to define the local-device alternative for always-on tool use without cloud dependency.

Together the filings and releases frame a weekend in which copyright risk and composable agent infrastructure moved in parallel across closed labs and open stacks. Anthropic has said it will defend the case; the publishers seek jury trial and up to statutory maximums per work, keeping training-data accountability at the center of the dispute.

Watch: Technical comparison of DeepSeek Harness and other open agent runtimes — context for the plugin-first stack story.

“One of the largest and most blatant ongoing thefts of intellectual property in history.”

OpenAI Ends Cursor Access After SpaceX Deal

OpenAI winds down its model contract with the coding agent — as Anthropic shows automated alignment researchers fixing ten failure modes and Tencent open-sources Hy4 preview, a 770B MoE flagship.

OpenAI notified SpaceX that it will wind down the contract supplying models to Cursor, with a proposed shutoff on November 12, 2026. The company said it cannot be confident SpaceX will stay within terms of service, citing past violations by Musk-owned companies including xAI, and accountability needs around the upcoming Astra model.

Separately, Anthropic reported that automated alignment researchers built on Claude mitigated all ten tested alignment failure categories without degrading capabilities, generalizing to held-out benchmarks and larger models. Tencent released Hy4 preview open source: 770B total parameters, 49B active, 1M context, aimed at coding, office work, and research.

The week underscores how change-of-control clauses, self-improving safety loops, and open-weight scale are reshaping both commercial access and the research stack for frontier systems.

Watch: Cursor’s own briefing on the next era of AI coding agents — direct context for the OpenAI–Cursor access decision.
