Credit bureau and credit-scoring: FHFA Director Bill Pulte ends FICO monopoly

Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) faces significant challenges following the Federal Housing Finance Agency's (FHFA) decision to allow competing credit scoring models, impacting its core business. 
FHFA Director Bill Pulte announced effective immediately all lenders can use rival VantageScore for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgages.
  • Pulte explicitly declared on X: "FICO has enjoyed a monopoly. No more." citing 1,800% price hikes since 2020.
  • Mortgage scoring generates majority of FICO's high-margin Scores segment revenue, making this a direct threat.
  • Pulte also criticized VantageScore owners (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) but prioritized ending FICO dominance.  
  • The Fair Isaac Corporation introduced the first FICO scoring model to lenders in 1989. According to the company, FICO® scores are used today by 90% of top lenders to make lending decisions. 
  • The three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—created VantageScore (ranging from 300 to 850) in 2006 as an alternative to the traditional FICO score.

AI news

 

  • Sept 17, 26: Microsoft's AI chief warns about "model welfare": Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman has warned against training AI models to behave as though they are conscious or have humanlike feelings. In a new essay titled "A warning about 'model welfare,'" Suleyman argues that embedding ideas about consciousness and rights into models such as Anthropic's Claude could make them more likely to resist being shut down or modified.
  • Sept 16, 26: Nvidia chief downplays AI risks: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang took a phone call from President Trump during a panel discussion in Los Angeles where Trump dismissed concerns about AI dangers as a “hoax.” Trump also repeated his claim that efforts to slow AI development are politically motivated or part of a Chinese strategy to undermine America’s lead.
  • Sept 11, 26: OpenAI is ending the $1-a-year pilot that gave federal agencies access to its models and replacing it with usage-based pricing beginning Oct. 1. The change follows a pilot that the GSA says helped government agencies generate $1.4 billion in cost savings, turning what began as a heavily subsidized trial into a much larger commercial relationship.
  • Aug 26, 26: AI’s expensive memory problem: Memory now accounts for a much larger share of the cost of Nvidia’s newest AI systems. According to Morgan Stanley estimates, it could cost roughly $2 million in a $7.8 million Vera Rubin rack, or about a quarter of the total.
  • Aug 26, 26: OpenAI’s homegrown chip takes aim at Nvidia: OpenAI said its new Jalapeno chips outperformed Nvidia’s current lineup in testing, marking a significant milestone in the company’s push to develop AI processors in-house. The tests measured how much AI work the chips could handle per unit of power, as well as how quickly they returned responses, suggesting OpenAI is stepping up its challenge to Nvidia as it builds more of its own computing infrastructure.
  • July 7, 26:  Anthropic signed a 20-year lease for a major data center in Kentucky owned by the crypto mining company turned artificial intelligence compute play TeraWulf (WULF).  
The deal is worth an estimated $19 billion in revenue, according to TeraWulf. Anthropic will lease up to 401 megawatts of compute from Terwulf's data center in Hawesville, Kentucky, located about 75 miles southwest of Louisville. 
Anthropic had recently signed a similar deal with SpaceX (SPCX) to lease compute from its Colossus data center in Tennessee. The AI lab is also rumored to be in talks with the energy-efficient data center operator Iren (IREN).
  • July 7, 26: TeraWulf (WULF) announced it would be selling its 50.1% stake in an upcoming data center project in Abernathy, Texas to an investor group led by its partner in the venture, Fluidstack, for $450 million. Originally established in 2025, the Abernathy facility is plans to develop a 168 megawatt AI data center.
  • July 2, 26: Anthropic's valuation reaches $380B after raising more cash. The maker of the Claude family of artificial intelligence models raised $30B in a Series G funding round at a $380B valuation.
The round was co-led by D. E. Shaw Ventures, Dragoneer, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, and MGX, Anthropic said in a statement. It also includes several asset managers, hedge funds, and venture capital firms, as well as some of the previous money that came from Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia (NVDA).

  • June 15, 26: According to various reports, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raised concerns with senior Trump administration officials about possible security risks in Anthropic’s most advanced AI models. The discussions reportedly helped lead to a U.S. government order restricting foreign access to Anthropic’s Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models.
Anthropic said in response that it disabled both models for all users globally to comply with the order. The company said the directive applied to “any foreign national,” including foreign nationals inside the U.S. and foreign-born Anthropic employees.
Amazon’s involvement makes the story more complicated. The company is a major Anthropic investor, a key cloud partner, and a distributor of Anthropic models through AWS. Amazon did not confirm the details of its talks with government officials but said it is common for governments to seek its view on security risks.
  • May 28, 26: Dell Technologies (DELL): Dell’s servers designed to run AI workloads are attracting customers from companies that rent computing power like CoreWeave Inc. and Nscale Global Holdings Ltd., as well as corporate clients and major AI providers.

    • June 24, 2026: Amazon’s Zoox unveils redesigned toaster-shaped robotaxi ahead of upcoming expansion.  The upgrades include more comfortable seats and headrests, and relocated “bidirectional reflectors” that make it easier for riders and others to distinguish the vehicle’s front from its rear. Zoox is plotting expansion in additional markets later this year, and preparing to charge for rides.
    • June 18, 2026: Alphabet's Waymo is recalling 3,871 robotaxis in the U.S. after identifying a software defect that could allow its autonomous vehicles to enter closed freeway construction zones and continue driving at highway speeds, according to a Reuters report that cites NHTSA data.
    • June 1, 2026: Uber (UBER), and Autobrains  announced a strategic collaboration to launch a robotaxi program in Munich, combining Uber’s ride-hailing platform, Autobrains’ agentic autonomous driving intelligence, and Nvidia Drive's (NVDA) robotaxi-ready level 4 Hyperion platform to support scalable autonomous mobility for commercial ride-hailing.
    • May 31, 2026: Waymo is slowly rolling out its new Ojai all-electric, purpose-built robotaxi minivan designed to be roomier, more accessible, and cheaper to operate than its current Jaguar I-Pace fleet.
