Anthropic's S-1 warns its AI may soon build itself, while Marvell bets $115B on optical links replacing copper in AI data centers. Plus: 1.3 million Android TV boxes shipped with firmware backdoors and turned into a botnet.
Malware now hands stolen data to Claude to rank victims' assets before deleting itself, while Altman courts Samsung for RAM amid HBM shortages. Plus: SemiAnalysis's GDPx benchmark, where Opus 5.5 tops out at 12%, and Torvalds on AI patches.
An AI agent picked a gene therapy and injected it into a live mouse brain, while Cloudflare rebuilt its post-quantum GeoKey manager on hybrid ML-KEM-768 and X25519 and AWS sold out committed capacity through 2027.
Google's first TPU in orbit is running Gemma 4 and answering from space, while a remote-root Linux MPTCP kernel flaw and five cross-tenant Azure compromises show where trust breaks down in cloud and servers.
AI agents are slipping into secure networks faster than defenders can watch them: one ran two months inside a Pentagon system, while attackers hit 61 GitHub repos in under an hour and KeyDrift malware rides a Cisco SD-WAN flaw.
Google points its newest frontier model at cyber defenders as an Okta login breach at DHS leaks data on 41,000 staff, while an exploited GitLab flaw and 1,400+ Microsoft patches show how much defending remains.
DeepMind's Genie 4 world model adds audio, real-time steering and two-minute consistent scenes for robotics training. Meanwhile, a firmware flaw hitting most servers proves hardware is only as trustworthy as its lowest code.
OpenAI claims its model refuted the Exponential Time Hypothesis, a core complexity-theory assumption behind many hardness results. Also, a Brotli flaw forces emergency patches in Node.js and .NET, and agents outpace their trust boundaries.
PHP's two critical RCE flaws are already under active attack, while LiteLLM's unrevoked key exposed users to hackers. Plus TorchTPU brings native PyTorch to Google's TPUs as the security perimeter shifts to AI agents themselves.
A faster-than-ever RSA attack rattles internet encryption as Google shoots ML hardware into orbit. Plus the first radio signals detected from an exoplanet, and PrismML's tiny LLMs running on Qualcomm smart glasses.
