U.S. lawmakers are urging the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to act on Donald Trump’s executive order and consider opening the $12.5 trillion 401(k) retirement market to crypto investments — a move that could significantly expand institutional access to digital assets.

Meanwhile, Anthropic has launched a Substack titled “Claude’s Corner,” written in the voice of its retired AI model, Claude Opus 3.

Instead of shutting it down completely, the company is keeping Opus 3 available for paid users as part of an experiment exploring how older AI models should be handled. The posts touch on themes like identity and subjective experience, fueling ongoing debates about AI sentience. Notably, AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton has been mentioned in discussions — though critics argue the model remains advanced pattern-matching rather than conscious.

This comes amid growing legal and ethical debates around how society should respond if AI systems begin showing signs of continuity or self-reported awareness.
