## Resource

A lighter but still meaningful AI news day: today we look at Anthropic’s Claude models going generally available on NVIDIA’s GB300 systems in Microsoft Azure, a notable shift in where AI venture money may be heading next, and new research on why LLMs that grade medical answers may look aligned with doctors without showing the same caution. Covered in this episode: - Anthropic’s Claude models are now generally available in Microsoft Foundry on Microsoft Azure, running on NVIDIA GB300 Blackwell Ultra GPUs - Ashton Kutcher is leaving Sound Ventures to launch a new VC firm with Morgan Beller focused on AI infrastructure, energy, and deep tech - A new arXiv paper tests whether LLM evaluators for medical AI actually mirror clinician judgment and caution - Cloudflare is giving AI companies until September 15 to separate search crawlers from training and agent crawlers or risk default blocks on publisher sites - The U.S. has lifted curbs on Anthropic’s advanced Fable and Mythos models, according to Ars Technica Source links: - NVIDIA on Claude in Microsoft Foundry on Azure: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/anthropic-nvidia-gb300-blackwell-ultra-microsoft-azure/ - TechCrunch on Ashton Kutcher and Morgan Beller’s new VC firm: https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/01/ashton-kutcher-leaving-sound-ventures-to-launch-new-vc-firm-with-morgan-beller/ - arXiv paper, "Clinician-Level Agreement Without Clinical Caution: LLM Evaluator Limits in Medical AI Benchmarking": https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.01103v1 - TechCrunch on Cloudflare’s publisher policy: https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/01/cloudflares-new-policy-pushes-ai-companies-to-pay-for-publishers-content/ - Ars Technica on Anthropic model curbs being lifted: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/07/after-spooking-trump-into-safety-testing-anthr…
