If you want to get access to this episode and my next 30 episodes all ad free, so there'll be no ads on them, go check out my podcast AI Chat. You can go search for that on Spotify or Apple. It's AI Chat. I'm gonna post all of these news episodes, and I'm also posting interviews, like I just interviewed the CEO of Cohere. They've raised over a billion dollars for their AI model, talking about what they're gonna be spending the money on and the direction of the AI industry, along with all of this new stuff. So if you wanna go check it out with no ads for free, it is AI Chat. Welcome to the podcast. Today, we have the United States government that has launched America.gov, a new AI agent for every government website. We have Nvidia, who's opened something called OpenShell and Sentry, and it is going to contain rogue AI agents. We also have OpenAI's Astra and also Anthropics' Claude Opus 5 that have cracked some unsolved Enigma messages from World War II. And we have Anthropics founders that are looking to get a 50.1% voting control of Anthropic ahead of the IPO. We also have an appeals court that is upholding the Pentagon supply chain risk ban on Anthropic. And we have different Tesla workers that are resisting training Optimus robots to replace them, according to some allegations. And a story about UpGuard that found that 16,000 SuperBase databases are leaking personal data to the open web. All of that and more on the podcast today. Before we get in to the show, I wanted to mention, if you've ever wanted to use all of the different AI models in one place, I'd love for you to check out my startup, which is called aibox.ai. We give you access to over 90 different AI models in one playground, so you can sit there and you can talk to Claude in the same chat thread as ChatGPT and as Gemini and as Grok. You can then get different image generators and audio generators and video generators all in the same thread. If you want to get access to all of the different AI models for $8.99 a month, you can test everything new that comes out. Sometimes you might just need one video generated for a project, but you don't need to go and spend $70 a month on a high subscription tier of Higgs Field. If this is the case, I'd love for you to go check out the AIbox platform at aibox.ai. And also we have a connector that plugs it into Claude. So if you want Claude to be able to generate images and video right inside of Claude, go check out the AIbox MCP connector.

All right, let's get into the episode today. So I mean, this is a big thing that has been talked about all over X today, which is that America.gov has just launched and it's basically, they're calling it a single front door to the federal government. So instead of opening a whole bunch of different tabs across different agencies and sites, trying to figure out which information actually matters to you, you can ask America.gov a question and you get a relevant answer from across 29,000 official government websites with the source and what to do next. To be honest, so that was a tweet from Tyler Kim on this, who's working on this. I think that for what it's worth, I mean, everyone's got different political opinions in the United States. However, this is something that I think everyone should get behind in a non-partisan way, making the government's websites less horribly ugly and confusing. That should be something that everyone should be on board with. So America.gov, I was testing it out this morning. You basically, it's just like a chat. It's a chat thread that you can talk to and it will answer you any questions. The big pitch they have on there is that it's going to get the answers only from official government websites and sources. It's free to use and it never has ads and it keeps all of your private information protected. So as I mentioned, 29,000 different websites. I hope every government does some version of this, but I for one, I'm originally from Canada. I had got a green card and I'm living in the United States. And the process for getting a green card and living in the United States was just, I mean, probably in any country, pretty painful and confusing and long and hard and all of the different things. It's doable, but it's not a fun experience, I would say.

And same thing with starting businesses, opening LLCs, contacting different departments, getting different tax license stuff, filing taxes, getting passports. I mean, there's a thousand different things that everyone has to do. This should make it all easier. What's cool here is, I mean, right now, it's just a chat bubble, but they said that coming in 2026, you're going to be able to do a whole bunch of new things. One of those being that you're going to be able to actually go and file your passport online, including the photo, which is pretty wild.
