Federal Reserve spokesperson: The interest rate hike in December is almost certain, with the focus shifting to the magnitude and pace of the rate increases

According to the Wall Street Journal, Nick Timiraos, known as the "mouthpiece of the Federal Reserve," wrote that after the third consecutive strong inflation report was released, a rate hike by the Federal Reserve in December is almost certain. Market focus is shifting to the magnitude of the rate hike and the subsequent pace, including a 25 basis point hike at each meeting, a one-time hike of 50 basis points, or signaling multiple consecutive hikes of 25 basis points.Nick Timiraos pointed out that the Federal Reserve will hold a policy meeting from December 8 to 9, and the bigger question is whether this rate hike is a moderate adjustment envisioned by several officials, with two to three more hikes, or the beginning of a sustained effort to suppress the economy and lower inflation.Previously, Federal Reserve Governor Waller, who supported maintaining interest rates last week, stated that if the core price increase in October reaches about 0.3% month-over-month, the Federal Reserve should consider a 50 basis point hike in December, and the latest published data happens to align with this scenario. Dallas Federal Reserve President Logan also hinted after the data release that, given the current inflation pressures, it may be necessary to accelerate the pace of rate hikes. The relevant tactical choices are usually decided by the Federal Reserve Chair.

The new regulations for Claude's title will take effect on November 12, covering the individual's location and corporate control

The new version of the "Supported Regional Policy" from the artificial intelligence company Anthropic will take effect on November 12. The new document specifies three categories of prohibited use of Claude, covering individuals, businesses, and users utilizing the model through overseas companies and third-party cloud platforms. As long as a person is in a non-supported region, they cannot use Claude; Americans using it during business trips in mainland China also violate the regulations. Even if a company is registered in the United States, if it is directly or indirectly controlled by individuals or businesses from non-supported regions, employees are similarly restricted, and it is not only those holding more than 50% of shares that will trigger this.The policy covers Claude.ai, Claude Code, Cowork, the official API, as well as Claude models provided by cloud platforms and authorized distributors. Calling the model through cloud platforms like AWS Bedrock does not mean that regional usage restrictions can be bypassed.As early as September 2025, Anthropic had already prohibited overseas companies controlled by businesses from non-supported regions like China from using Claude. This time, the policy clarifies the locations of individuals, the registration locations of businesses, and control relationships more explicitly. The official disclosure indicates that in the first half of 2026, a total of 11.4 million accounts were banned, with 398,000 appeals received, of which 42,000 successfully overturned the original decisions. The data covers various types of violations, not all of which involve regional restrictions. The system will identify risk signals from non-supported regions, unauthorized resale of Claude, and other issues, requiring relevant users to verify their identity; failure to verify will result in account suspension.

first_img Google opens Gemini 4 Carbon, API prices will double starting in December

On Tuesday, Google announced that its cutting-edge artificial intelligence model, Gemini 4 Carbon, is now open to paid developers and enterprise customers. Google stated that the model is capable of handling complex programming, cybersecurity, and scientific research tasks that involve multiple steps. Gemini 4 Carbon was released on October 28, having previously been available to select cybersecurity defense agencies through the Fairwind program. Following this opening, paid developers can use the model via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio, while enterprise customers can access it through Gemini for business. Google AI Ultra subscribers will also gradually gain access to the Gemini application, Google Search AI mode, and Antigravity.In early tests, OpenCode software engineer Kit Langton reported that the team submitted a list of requirements to Carbon before the end of the workday, requesting solutions for consistency issues between the application interface and the existing UI framework. After running overnight, Carbon built a Rust UI library from scratch, rewrote the OpenCode desktop application, and provided a runnable demo version. The Wiz team under Google stated that while using Carbon for cyber to scan two large software service providers, the model identified zero-day vulnerabilities within two hours and subsequently collaborated with the affected agencies to complete the fixes. Google did not disclose the names of these service providers or the details of the vulnerabilities. Researchers also combined Carbon with other models, using the AlphaProof Code intelligent agent framework to complete the formal verification of the security properties of the underlying code of the Signal encryption protocol within weeks.In terms of pricing, Google set the initial experience price for Carbon's API at $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, the same as Gemini 4 Argon. This offer lasts until November 30, after which the price will double, adjusting to $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens, applicable to the publicly available Carbon model. Google stated that Carbon ranked first in three benchmark tests: CursorBench 4.0, Perplexity WANDR, and Zapier AutomationBench, with the cost of single-task performance being less than half that of the next best external models. Google also mentioned that the model intercepted 99% of attack paths in a simulated cyberattack test, and achieved a 0% success rate in another prompt injection test.
