FTC is investigating OpenAI, Anthropic and other AI companies over product risks

This story is from the archive. It was covered between 30 September 2026 and 30 September 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

The probe adds to the mounting scrutiny that OpenAI and Anthropic have been facing over their safety practices following the Hugging Face hack.

What the coverage shows

The coverage converges on Anthropic and OpenAI being under federal scrutiny, with CNBC broadening that to “other AI companies” and framing it as a probe into product risks and safety practices. The Independent is the only outlet explicitly linking the investigation to the White House visit in its headline. The New York Times does not cover the investigation here at all, instead foregrounding Dario Amodei’s White House dinner with Trump.
