Anthropic says Project Glasswing used Claude Mythos Preview to surface more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities. The sharper signal is operational: verification, disclosure, and patching may now lag behind AI-assisted discovery.

RSS FeedBloomberg reports DeepSeek is pushing forward with a $10.29 billion financing round. Founder Liang Wenfeng publicly reaffirmed commitment to open-source AI development and AGI over short-term commercialization.
Meta's legal team sent a notice to the Heretic Free Software Project for distributing Llama model derivatives. Heretic responded with sardonic compliance — invoking Galileo — while immediately setting up a Codeberg mirror in Germany and announcing preservation measures.
Alibaba's Qwen team has released Qwen3.7-Max, an agent-focused frontier LLM. It ranks 5th on Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index, nearly matching GPT 5.4, and is available as both an API and open weights.
Forge is a new open-source Python framework that applies structured guardrails to self-hosted LLMs. The best config — Ministral-3 8B Q8 — jumps from a 53% baseline to 86.5% on the 26-scenario eval suite, with 99% achievable on agentic tasks.
A Hugging Face engineer has launched paperswithcode.co to revive the beloved ML research hub that went dark after Meta's acquisition. The new site uses AI agents for paper parsing and automatic leaderboard generation.
ByteDance Research has open-sourced Lance, a 3B-parameter unified multimodal model that handles image and video generation, editing, and understanding in a single framework. It achieves top-tier benchmark scores, matching or outperforming models twice its size.
Linus Torvalds has warned that AI-powered vulnerability discovery tools are flooding the Linux kernel security mailing list with duplicate reports, creating what he calls 'unnecessary pain and pointless work.' He argues that AI-detected bugs are by definition not secret, and urges researchers to contribute patches rather than bare reports.
Archestra faced a deluge of AI-generated low-quality contributions: 253 bot comments on a single bounty issue, 27 untested PRs for one feature request. Their solution combines contributor onboarding verification with Git's --author flag to create a barrier that distinguishes AI-assisted human contributions from pure bot spam.
GenCAD is an AI system that generates parametric CAD command sequences from image inputs. Unlike mesh or voxel-based 3D generation, it outputs the complete CAD program history — making designs fully editable. The system combines an autoregressive transformer, contrastive learning, and a latent diffusion model.
Semble is an open-source code search library for AI agents that reduces token usage by 98% compared to grep+read, while achieving 99% of transformer model quality. It runs entirely on CPU with no external dependencies and integrates directly with Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex via MCP.
NVIDIA Labs released SANA-WM, a 2.6B parameter open-source world model capable of generating up to one minute of 720p video. The relatively small model size and open-source availability make it a significant contribution to accessible video generation research.
