In Washington, earlier today, PBS NewsHour reports that a federal judge has ordered three taxpayer-funded Trump administration ads to be pulled from television and social media. The ads appear to have been made for political or propaganda purposes, the ruling says. One of the ads touts the president's claim that every American will receive five thousand dollars if Republicans keep control of Congress in the upcoming election. The order was issued on Friday.

In Poland, meanwhile, Deutsche Welle says protesters clashed with police in Poland over the dismissal of the top court chief. Prime Minister Donald Tusk defended the firing of court President Bogdan Swieczkowski as a move to restore the rule of law.

The decline follows pressure on Intel's PC business as falling memory-chip prices have dented demand and corporate IT teams have reduced budgets for laptops.

Altman made the comments during his appearance on the Cheeky Pint podcast, where he also talked about AI’s impact on mathematics. He made the remarks while fielding questions about the current shortage of memory chips. The interview also touched on supply‑chain shortages affecting memory components.

The Guardian says Anthropic, the creator of the Claude model, filed to list its shares on a U.S. stock exchange on Oct. 26. The company’s filing statement includes a 92‑page risk factor document. That document acknowledges the dangers AI could pose to society and to human beings, and it lists factors that might hurt Anthropic’s business. The 92‑page document enumerates potential threats to society, to individuals, and to the company’s financial outlook. The filing was part of Anthropic’s plan to go public.
