Frontier AI labs are converging on a new strategy for controlling their most cyber-capable models while still commercializing them: selective access.

Why it matters: OpenAI's trusted-access program and a pending program from Anthropic are creating a new power center in cybersecurity where AI companies help decide which defenders can use the most advanced cyber capabilities.

The crew of a U.S. Apache attack helicopter shot down by Iran was rescued by a drone-boat known as Corsair.

Why it matters: It was a first-of-its-kind operation, with incredibly high stakes.

President Trump said the U.S. military has determined that Iran shot down the U.S. helicopter that crashed on Monday in the Strait of Hormuz and pledged a military response.
