Cognition Hits $900M Revenue Run Rate as AI Apps Gain Traction

Anthropic has disabled live internet access for all internal AI agent evaluations, citing inability to reliably control its AI systems. The move represents a significant constraint on the company's testing infrastructure, preventing its evaluation agents from accessing real-time online data and services. The decision underscores ongoing challenges in AI safety and control as systems become more autonomous.

NVIDIA is demonstrating how developers can use frontier AI models like GPT-6 Astra and Claude Fable 5 combined with Omniverse libraries to build simulations faster. The approach lets developers direct AI agents through natural language to assemble assets, connect physics and rendering, and validate behavior. Four use cases show the method applied to warehouse robotics, autonomous vehicle testing, digital twin creation, and robot skill validation.

Google is expanding Gemini's capabilities to function as an autonomous AI agent for business users, enabling it to plan and execute tasks across multiple applications and systems. The agent can delegate work to subagents, leverage multiple AI models, and operates with its own workplace identity including an email address. This represents a shift from conversational AI toward task automation within enterprise environments.

Goodfire has launched monitoring technology that tracks AI agent behavior by examining internal model operations rather than requiring a separate AI system to audit outputs. The approach aims to reduce costs while maintaining oversight of potentially problematic agent actions. The company positions this as a more efficient alternative to existing monitoring methods that rely on external AI review.
