Greece's PM: No Government Ready for AI's Impact

China's internet regulator is investigating DeepSeek and Moonshot AI following allegations by Anthropic that both companies routed sensitive user data to Claude models without authorization. Anthropic published a 154-page report on September 10 detailing how seven Chinese companies were using Claude illicitly at scale, including an example where DeepSeek relayed requests from engineers building a police surveillance system to Claude. The investigation marks a significant escalation in scrutiny of data practices among Chinese AI firms and raises questions about the security of proprietary AI systems.

OpenAI has published a framework for establishing shared global AI standards focused on coordinated evaluation, reporting, and governance mechanisms. The proposal aims to improve AI safety through standardized approaches across the industry. The initiative addresses the need for consistent safety practices as AI systems become more capable and widely deployed.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed seven bills to regulate AI data center energy and water consumption, preventing utilities from passing infrastructure costs to residents. The laws require a new rate classification for data centers, mandate they fund grid and water system upgrades, and compel disclosure of water use and energy efficiency plans to local governments.

AI security requires engineering discipline across the full agent stack, from models through runtime environments, with enforceable controls at each layer rather than relying on agent reasoning alone. Saša Zdjelar argues that organizations must apply established security principles to new AI operating conditions, implement traceable identities and bounded permissions, and gather evidence that protections work before deployment. NVIDIA's OpenShell and partner tools like Cisco's DefenseClaw demonstrate how to enforce policies outside an agent's reach.
