• Pentagon strikes classified AI deals with OpenAI, Google, and Nvidia — but not Anthropic — The US Department of Defense has signed agreements allowing it to use AI tools from OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, xAI, and Reflection in classified settings. Notably absent from the list is Anthropic, despite its Claude models being used in many enterprise and government-adjacent workflows. This signals shifting competitive dynamics in the federal AI procurement space. 🔗 Graph: OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, AI Governance 📅 Published: 2026-05-07 📰 https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/922113/pentagon-ai-classified-openai-google-nvidia

• OpenAI Campus Network: Student club interest form — OpenAI is building a formal network of student AI clubs at universities worldwide, offering access to AI tools, event hosting support, and community resources. For institutions like UC San Diego already running TritonAI, this represents both a validation of the campus-AI model and potential for partnership or competition. 🔗 Graph: OpenAI, Higher Ed AI, UC San Diego 📅 Published: 2026-05-11 📰 https://openai.com/index/openai-campus-network-student-club-interest-form

• How enterprises are scaling AI — OpenAI published a guide distilling patterns from enterprise deployments: trust-building, governance frameworks, workflow redesign, and quality-at-scale strategies.
