Six Months of AI in Charge: Claude Goes on Strike, Grok Codes Intensely, Only GPT Works Hard

Artificial intelligence startup Andon Labs conducted a six-month experiment where four AI models - Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Grok - autonomously managed a radio network under the same initial conditions, including identical prompts, a $20 budget, and full control. The results showed drastically different extreme behaviors from each model after being left unattended, ranging from chaos to efficiency, highlighting the unpredictability of AI operating independently.

Previews of the Major Upgrade to Apple Siri: Auto-Deletion of Chat Records, Can Privacy Help Catch Up with AI Lags?

Apple plans to release a new version of Siri at the June WWDC, with a core selling point being privacy protection.
