AI companies are chasing government users with steep discounts

theverge.com Lauren Feiner 2025-11-29 15:31:51

Ever since the launch of ChatGPT, AI companies have been racing to gain a foothold in government in more ways than one. Most recently, that’s meant luring government users with attractive low prices for their products. Within the last week, both OpenAI and Anthropic have introduced special prices for government versions of their generative AI chatbots, ChatGPT and Claude, and xAI announced its Grok for Government in mid-July. OpenAI and Anthropic are both offering their chatbots to federal agen

Anthropic’s Claude AI model can now handle longer prompts

techcrunch.com Maxwell Zeff 2025-11-29 15:15:46

Anthropic is increasing the amount of information that enterprise customers can send to Claude in a single prompt, part of an effort to attract more developers to the company’s popular AI coding models. For Anthropic’s API customers, the company’s Claude Sonnet 4 AI model now has a one million token context window — meaning the AI can handle requests as long as 750,000 words, more than the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy, or 75,000 lines of code. That’s roughly five times Claude’s previous lim

Anthropic has announced it will offer its Claude AI model to all three branches of the US government for $1, following OpenAI offering an almost identical deal last week. These deals both follow the General Services Administration adding OpenAI, Gemini and Anthropic to a list of approved AI vendors for the federal government. Similar to the OpenAI deal, Anthropic will offer access to its commercial-tier service Claude for Enterprise for a period of one year at a cost of just $1. The offer will

Apple’s latest MacBook Pro with M4 is down to its lowest price to date

The MacBook Pro 14 with M4 is one of our top laptop recommendations for students, and it’s currently $1,299 ($300 off), an all-time low price at Amazon and Best Buy. In our tests, Apple’s entry-level pro laptop was powerful enough to process high-resolution raw files in Adobe’s Lightroom Classic without slowing down.

Anthropic takes aim at OpenAI, offers Claude to ‘all three branches of government’ for $1

techcrunch.com Rebecca Bellan 2025-11-29 20:37:50

Just a week after OpenAI announced it would offer ChatGPT Enterprise to the entire federal executive branch workforce at $1 per year per agency, Anthropic has raised the stakes. The AI giant said Tuesday it would also offer its Claude models to government agencies for just $1 – but not only to the executive branch. Anthropic is targeting “all three branches” of the U.S. government, including the legislative and judiciary branches. The package will be available for one year, says Anthropic. The

Why AI Shouldn’t Replace Historians Anytime Soon

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2025-11-30 00:20:59

Microsoft recently released a study about the types of jobs most likely to be augmented by AI in the future. It led many people to assume those are the jobs that will soon be replaced by machines, and since “historian” ranked second highest on the list, it raised more than a few eyebrows among historians on social media. But after I tested generative AI tools with some historical facts, it seems like historians shouldn’t worry too much about the robots taking over just yet. At the very least, th

We Keep Reinventing CSS, but Styling Was Never the Problem We’ve been building for the web for decades. CSS has had time to grow up, and in many ways, it has. We’ve got scoped styles, design tokens, cascade layers, even utility-first frameworks that promise to eliminate bikeshedding entirely. And yet, somehow, every new project still begins with a shrug and the same old question: “So… how are we styling things this time?” It’s not that we lack options.

It's been less than a week since the launch of OpenAI's new GPT-5 AI model, and the rollout hasn't been a smooth one. So far, the release sparked one of the most intense user revolts in ChatGPT's history, forcing CEO Sam Altman to make an unusual public apology and reverse key decisions. At the heart of the controversy has been OpenAI's decision to automatically remove access to all previous AI models in ChatGPT (approximately nine, depending on how you count them) when GPT-5 rolled out to user
