Here's your morning TNB tech minute for Thursday, September 10th. I'm Imani Moise for the Wall Street Journal. And Thropic has given the European Union Cybersecurity Authority access to its powerful mythos AI model after months of talks with officials in the block. The announcement comes roughly four months after the EU's executive arm first said it was in discussions with the company over mythos 5. The Trump administration moved to ban foreign entities from using the model in June after its ability to spot vulnerabilities in code spark national security concerns, but allowed

the company to re-offer access to a limited group of companies and governments weeks later. As spokesperson for Anisa, the EU Cybersecurity Authority, said it has been testing the model this month, and that the agency has also gained access to two frontier open AI models. We exclusively report AI chips start up positron has raised $875 million at evaluation of $5 billion, a significant increase in the company's worth over the last six months. In its most recent funding round in February, it was valued at $1 billion. The re-known Nevada based company, which is focused on designing hardware that helps AI models run more quickly, is seeking an edge in the crowded chips business by bringing it to chips to market as soon as possible. And in another exclusive, we report Examer Energy is working with aerospace and defense company RTX to develop post laser weapons that can shoot down drone forms, missiles, or other threats. The companies have a roughly $50 million development agreement and are making a prototype that aims

for an initial demonstration within two years. The pairing would combine recent advances in laser fusion technology with the need to develop cheaper ways to defend against missiles or drones, which have emerged as key weapons and wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. And that's your TNB tech minute. We'll be back this afternoon with more. The browser is your business's first line of defense against online threats.
