   Edition 015 — The scaffolding is the story

   No new frontier model shipped this week — the news was everything built around them.

Dario Amodei asks the frontier to pace itself; Enflame's Shanghai debut and Positron's $875M bet reshape the chip race; Salesforce formalizes agent governance; and new research quantifies the quiet flood of AI text into government back offices.
