    Anthropic Bans Claude from Recreating Existing Games in Opus 5.5 System Prompt

    Anthropic confirmed that it added two sentences to the Opus 5.5 system prompt instructing Claude not to recreate specific games belonging to others. This came after blogger chasm discovered that Claude Code was blocking game clones. The rule only constrains Claude itself; users can switch to other models or break tasks down into specific technical tasks whose context does not reveal the overall goal to bypass it. After the ban was announced, a large number of original developers complained on the Claude Code GitHub issue page, saying they were refused when developing original games on the grounds that they were suspected of cloning existing games.

    OpenAI's funding target shrinks from $30 billion; Anthropic reportedly unlikely to obtain investment-grade rating after IPO

    According to The Wall Street Journal, in OpenAI's new funding round, which originally targeted $30 billion, investors were willing to provide only $11 billion, cutting the funding target by one-third; Sam Altman said he will continue reaching out to family offices and high-net-worth individuals in the coming weeks. Blackstone, a major investor in fellow AI company Anthropic, changed its tune and said that Anthropic will likely be unable to obtain an investment-grade rating after going public, which would affect its arrangements to borrow at low cost for its plan to build more than $800 billion in computing infrastructure by 2045. On the day the news emerged, the Nasdaq 100 index closed down 3.5%, bringing its cumulative decline for the entire month of October to about 5.3%.

    White House Science and Technology Advisor Council Chairman Sachs Comments on Anthropic S-1: May Become the Greatest Company in the History of Capitalism

    David Sachs, Chairman of the U.S. White House Science and Technology Advisory Council, analyzed Anthropic's S-1 registration filing on the All-In podcast, saying that this artificial intelligence company is likely to become the greatest company in the history of capitalism. The filing shows that Anthropic had revenue of $16.3 billion in the first half of 2026 and cash on its books of $112 billion, with projected 2026 annual recurring revenue reaching $100 billion, and seven founders holding 50.1% of voting rights through Class F shares. Sachs believes that its abundant cash makes its IPO financing needs lower than outside expectations, thereby giving it stronger pricing power.

    OpenAI Announces ChatGPT and Codex Will Share Quota Starting in December

    OpenAI announced that starting in December this year, the quotas for its three paid plans—ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Business—will be calculated as a combined total, with ChatGPT and Codex sharing the same quota pool and billed uniformly by token; consumption depends on the model selected and task complexity. Instant chat does not consume the shared quota, and users can check their remaining quota and reset time on the "Settings—Usage" page in ChatGPT. This adjustment is related to OpenAI integrating ChatGPT Work's agent capabilities into ChatGPT, and the company expects most users will not run out of quota more often than they do now.

    Blackstone expects Anthropic to struggle to obtain an investment-grade rating after going public, potentially falling into the BB junk-grade category

    Blackstone told investors that Anthropic may not immediately obtain an investment-grade rating after going public, and that major rating agencies are more likely to assign a high-end junk rating in the BB range. If the rating falls into junk territory, Anthropic's prospects for financing its more than $800 billion computing power plan will become more complicated, because funding pools such as insurance companies and pension funds will narrow significantly and interest rates will be higher. In the $63 billion financing codenamed "North Star," more than $42 billion of senior loans are guaranteed by Broadcom, while $18 billion of subordinated debt is backed by Anthropic's lease payments; KBRA assigned a BB+ rating and Morningstar DBRS assigned a BB rating.

    Blackstone Reverses Stance, Says Anthropic May Struggle to Obtain Investment-Grade Credit Rating After IPO

    According to a report by the UK's Financial Times, Blackstone Group has told investors that Anthropic is more likely to receive a speculative-grade rating in the BB range after its IPO, rather than the investment-grade rating previously expected. This reversal emerged in Anthropic's $63 billion chip financing deal; a speculative-grade rating would restrict investment by institutions such as insurance companies and pension funds. The prospectus shows that Anthropic plans to invest more than $800 billion in computing infrastructure by 2045, and currently holds more than $112 billion in cash and cash equivalents.

    According to Bloomberg, five major tech giants—Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Oracle—have committed to investing more than $3 trillion in data centers and other areas over the coming years. Among them, Alphabet's total contract commitments exceed $1 trillion, nearly eight times the level a year earlier; Meta's total future spending exceeds $800 billion, nearly half of which is for data center leases that have not yet taken effect and are payable over terms of up to 30 years. The five companies' combined future lease payment commitments total $1.3 trillion, and other purchase commitments total $1.9 trillion. Oracle has already seen negative free cash flow due to its investment in AI data centers.

    S&P Downgrades Meta's Rating Outlook to Negative on AI Spending Pressure

    S&P Global Ratings downgraded the outlook on Meta's AA- credit rating from stable to negative on October 31, citing continued increases in AI-related spending and rising leverage. S&P expects Meta's capital expenditure to reach $140 billion this year and exceed $225 billion in 2027, with leverage rising above 1x as early as next year, and said Meta's ability to convert AI investment into commercial revenue is relatively limited. A Meta spokesperson said the company disagrees with this assessment and believes future product and business opportunities are sufficient to support its credit profile.

    OpenAI has lowered the target valuation for this funding round from $1.4 trillion to $1.25 trillion, a reduction of $150 billion, or about 10.7%; the funding target has also been cut from $30 billion to $20 billion, a reduction of $10 billion. People familiar with the matter said that because some investors reduced their subscription amounts, the actual funds raised in the first closing are expected to be less than $20 billion. MGX, part of a consortium of UAE investment institutions, is expected to become the largest participant, while Founders Fund, Coatue, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz and SoftBank also plan to participate.

    Parameter Labs discloses an exploit chain that can take over ChatGPT accounts

    Parameter Labs disclosed an attack chain targeting the ChatGPT HTML preview (formerly Canvas) sandbox. An attacker can craft a share link that, when visited by another logged-in user, steals private data or performs actions on their behalf. The attack starts with the postMessage-receiving code of the MathLive virtual keyboard using innerHTML, injects an iframe without sandbox restrictions, and then uses the YouTube oEmbed endpoint allowed by CSP to reflect and execute JavaScript. OpenAI has fixed the vulnerability and paid a $5,000 bounty.

    OpenAI will merge ChatGPT and Codex quotas into a single shared token allowance in December

    OpenAI announced on its official documentation page that ChatGPT and Codex under the Plus, Pro, and Business plans will share a single token allowance, with the change starting in December. At that time, OpenAI will merge the agent features of ChatGPT Work, an agent built on Codex in July, into the main ChatGPT experience. Currently, Work already shares limits with Codex, while regular ChatGPT conversations are metered separately, so heavy coding does not consume chat quota; after the switch, each request will be priced by token, whereas the current limits for regular conversations are calculated by the weekly message count for each model, such as the weekly cap for GPT-6 Pro messages.
