Anthropic has started rolling out identity verification on Claude "for a few use cases." The company didn't list out those use cases in its announcement, but we've asked it for details and will update this post when we hear back. Anthropic says you might see a verification prompt upon "accessing certain capabilities," asking you to verify your identity. You would have to show a valid and physical government-issued photo ID. You'd also have take a selfie with your phone or computer camera that the system will compare against the ID you present.
The news, as you'd expect, wasn't well-received. Many users are questioning the necessity of identity verification to be able to use an AI chatbot, especially if Anthropic already has their credit cards on file as paying subscribers.

Google News has begun showing Polymarket bets and odds alongside actual stories, according to a report by Futurism. These look to appear as large blocks that include links to numerous ways for people to lose their money.
Bets tend to appear in the "For you" section of Google News, which is supposed to be tailored to a person's particular interests. Futurism notes that the platform actually placed a Polymarket bet as the top news result when inquiring about the price of Bitcoin.
The publication saw links to the prediction market all over Google News, including in searches. It popped up in queries regarding the Strait of Hormuz, which presents a link that lets people bet on the number of ships that would be allowed to pass through the critical passageway. The report even indicates that users were able to set the gambling platform as a source, which directs readers to an aggregate page of other Polymarket links.
