Businesses should publish salaries in job adverts now, Prime Minister Andy Burnham is telling firms, rather than wait for a new law to come in that will force them to do so. The government is planning to make pay details compulsory in adverts, with legislation on the issue being brought forward as soon as possible. It argues the change will help jobseekers, particularly those applying for their first job, and could help prevent pay discrimination. However, one industry group said setting pay was a complex process and regulating adverts was not always suitable. It comes a week after the UK's equality watchdog said employees should legally be able to find out what their colleagues are earning .

Plus: America's data center boom has hit a political wall. Texas was the new epicenter of the AI data center buildout. Texas is the fastest-growing data center market in the US and ground zero for Big Tech's largest AI buildouts. But the blue wave that swept the Lone Star State may jeopardize that position. Democrat James Talarico won the US Senate seat, Gina Hinojosa won the race for governor, and Democrats will take control of the Texas House for the first time in 24 years. They won after making data centers a central issue on the campaign trail.

A sweeping bit of legislation designed to cut red tape could speed up the buildout of energy infrastructure in the US. With the dust barely settled on this week's momentous midterms, the Senate is set to vote on the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (BAAJA) on November 9. It's a plan that could finally start an overhaul of the slow, complicated process for getting energy projects approved, as part of something called permitting reform. People on both sides of the political aisle have been pushing for this type of change for some years. The key question is whether this will cut greenhouse-gas emissions from the US energy sector or push them higher still. The federal permitting system is designed to protect the environment against industrial pollution from large projects like power plants, transmission lines, and natural-gas pipelines. Today, permitting is governed by a range of laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act and the Clean Water Act. And if there's one thing you might know about the current state of permitting in the US it's that it's slow and incredibly complicated. So in its 417 pages, BAAJA attempts to tighten things up. The bill has provisions that narrow the sorts of projects that need to apply for federal permits and others that enact deadlines in hopes of speeding up a process that today can take years.

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.
