Executive Summary
Today's signal cluster centers on model access control, copyright litigation, AI infrastructure economics, and persistent agent memory. OpenAI confirmed it will wind down model access for Cursor after SpaceX's acquisition, while Sony Music and Warner Chappell sued Anthropic over alleged training-data infringement. Infrastructure signals point beyond GPUs into networking, local MoE inference, open video datasets, and agent memory systems.
