MCP Weekly: EU Challenges Meta, OpenAI Targets Enterprise, and Claude Opus 4.6 Arrives

This week marked a clear shift in where AI power is concentrating: away from consumer novelty and toward enterprise execution, infrastructure control, and platform access.

TL;DR

The European Commission formally challenged Meta over blocking rival AI assistants from WhatsApp, escalating a battle over who controls AI distribution. OpenAI launched Frontier, an enterprise platform for autonomous AI agents, while beginning limited ad tests in ChatGPT. Anthropic shipped Claude Opus 4.6 with 1M-token context and stronger reasoning for long-running workflows.

Key Developments

EU Targets WhatsApp AI Exclusivity
The European Commission issued objections to Meta’s WhatsApp policy that blocks third-party AI assistants. Regulators are signaling that messaging platforms may not be allowed to become closed AI distribution monopolies inside the EU.

OpenAI Goes All-In on Enterprise
OpenAI unveiled Frontier, a platform for deploying AI agents as managed corporate workers with identity, permissions, and auditability built in. At the same time, OpenAI began testing ads in ChatGPT for free users—underscoring a widening gap between consumer monetization and enterprise revenue.

Anthropic Pushes the Context Frontier
Claude Opus 4.6 introduces 1 million token context (beta), adaptive reasoning, and multi-agent workflows—aimed squarely at legal, financial, and engineering workloads where failure is expensive.


Infrastructure Signals

  • Google Cloud launched a hosted MCP server for Data Commons, removing local environment barriers for enterprise data access.
  • IBM introduced agentic storage systems that automate operations and detect ransomware in under a minute.

Why This Matters

AI is no longer just about smarter models—it’s about who controls access, execution, and trust at scale. Regulation, enterprise platforms, and infrastructure are becoming the real battlegrounds.
