MISHA CORE INTERESTS - 2026-03-14
Executive Summary
- Claude 1M context goes GA: Anthropic’s 1M-token context window is now generally available and appears to be defaulting in Claude Code and Max plans, shifting long-context economics and raising the bar for repo-scale and long-running agent workflows.
- MCP ecosystem security gets quantified at scale: An open-sourced attack-surface scan across 800+ MCP servers with 6,200+ findings makes tool-ecosystem risk measurable and will accelerate enterprise demands for hardening, scanning, and policy enforcement.
- Production MCP reality check (security + scaling): A field report highlights why MCP servers are often not production-ready (credential patterns, OAuth adoption, stdio/concurrency, OWASP-style issues), pointing to an imminent market for gateways, hosted runtimes, and standards.
- Glass substrates for next-gen AI chips: MIT Technology Review reports commercial plans for glass substrates/panels (Absolics), signaling a potential packaging-driven shift in AI accelerator scaling, power, and cost curves.
- Defense adoption: Palantir demos AI chatbots in war-planning workflows: Wired reports Palantir demos showing frontier chatbots used in military planning/intelligence workflows, increasing demand for auditability, secure deployment patterns, and high-stakes governance controls.
