Anthropic filed two lawsuits against the Department of Defense on Monday, alleging that the government’s decision to label the artificial intelligence firm a “supply chain risk” was unlawful and violated its first amendment rights.

Researchers working to unpick whether daily multivitamin results in people staying healthier as they age
Taking a multivitamin every day for two years appears to slow some markers of biological ageing – albeit to a small degree, research suggests.
While chronological age is based on how long a person has lived, biological age reflects the state of the body. Estimates of the latter are often based on changes in patterns of DNA methylation – modifications to DNA that accumulate with age and affect how genes function.
