Star Trek actor Walter Koenig, who played Pavel Chekov, dies aged 90
The actor Walter Koenig, who played the spirited Russian crewman Pavel Chekov in the original Star Trek TV series, has died aged 90, his agent confirmed. The US actor was a mainstay on the show from season two in 1967 until it ended in 1969, later reprising his role as the eager and earnest Chekov, with his Monkees-style mop-top haircut, in the six original cast movies from 1979 through 1991. He also wrote an episode for the show's animated spin-off. In the mid-late 1990s, Koenig portrayed a very different character, the ruthless Psi Corps telepath Alfred Bester, in another sci-fi space series, Babylon 5. Born in Chicago and raised in Manhattan, Koenig was the son of Lithuanian immigrants and studied at the famous Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in New York, alongside the likes of James Caan, Christopher Lloyd and Dabney Coleman. His big break came as the capable young Chekov, who would joke that everything was invented in Russia.

Will the real Anthropic please stand up
The company has been masterful at storytelling for years. Will the IPO reveal the company behind the mask or lean deeper into the myth-making? After weeks of frenzied speculation, Anthropic has filed its IPO prospectus. The 335-page document (100 pages or so are focused on risks) lays out the company's unique view of the technology it is building and the ways it believes it will change the world. It also warns that there's a fair chance that its tech could "erode trust, harm society and destabilize the geopolitical order" and, if things don't go to plan, "pose catastrophic or existential risks to humanity." "We encourage you, as a prospective owner of our stock, not to think of your purchase in purely transactional terms," the company writes.
