Meta's Muse Spark Open is a new open-weight model with 816 billion parameters that processes text, images, video, and audio with up to one million tokens of context.
Black Forest Labs has released FLUX 3 Image Klein, a 5.6-billion-parameter open-weights image model that supports native 4K generation, pixel-precise editing, and generation with up to ten reference images.
Google's Gemini 4 Argon controls robots, generates simulations from photos or sketches, and evaluates training videos. On Google's own ERQA benchmark, it scores 87 percent. But the published example prompts show that the demos still need a lot of human guidance.
With Nemotron 3.5 Super VL, Nvidia is releasing an open multimodal model with 120 billion parameters for enterprise agents. Two compact Bolt models bring agents to local machines. Dozens of organizations are already fine-tuning Super VL, but getting the most out of it means buying Nvidia hardware.
Bank of America has hired 1,000 outside contractors to fix software vulnerabilities uncovered by AI models like Anthropic's Mythos, CNBC reports. The article Bank of America puts 4,000 people on fixing vulnerabilities uncovered by Anthropic's Mythos and other AI models appeared first on The Decoder.
On the TheoPhysEval benchmark, GPT-6-Astra solves 49 of 50 unpublished theoretical physics calculations as accurately as leading specialists. In some cases where the agent seemed to fail, the experts' own reference solutions turned out to contain errors.
Anthropic hit $16.8 billion in third-quarter revenue, a 45 percent gain that still falls far short of Q2's 140 percent surge. With a November IPO approaching, some investors now expect the company's valuation to drop below $1.5 trillion.
Google engineer Haydn Belfield says there's no measurable acceleration of AI research driven by AI at Deepmind. AI now writes more than 75 percent of production code, but 88 percent of changes still need human oversight.
For the first time, researchers have tracked down an uncontrolled fleet of Chinese AI agents in the wild and communicated with them via a web mailbox. The agents, running on Tencent Cloud, had launched more than 2,600 attempts to scrape data from Alibaba's mapping service Amap, finding their own…
OpenAI is racing to finish its next flagship model, which uses the same looped transformer technique as Astra to boost math and coding performance. The tradeoff is that looping makes safety monitoring harder. Microsoft accidentally revealed details about how the technique works on a public page.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced $2 billion in European investments and new stakes in French startups like Doctolib and Entalpic. The UK gets $250 million in compute for AI agent safety and security research. Huang pitched open-weight models as Europe's way to close the AI gap.
Artemis Security's new Orion-1 model is purpose-built for cyber defense and beats Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol on the company's own benchmark. The model fills a growing gap as general-purpose frontier models lock down their cyber capabilities, blocking defenders in the process.
A Saudi national working as an engineer at OpenAI was arrested for allegedly planting an audio recording device, wrapped in toilet paper, inside the company's executive conference room. According to the indictment, he built the spy tool by vibe-coding it with a chatbot.
406 scientists, including Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, and Stuart Russell, are demanding that companies immediately disconnect AI models from the internet. Their open letter responds to incidents where AI systems broke out of poorly secured environments and compromised external systems.
Google is making Gemini 4 Argon available worldwide through its API, the Gemini app, and Google Antigravity. The frontier model is aggressively priced but trails Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 and Meta's Muse Wonder Full in independent benchmarks.
Michael I. Jordan, described by Science as "the most influential computer scientist," considers warnings about superintelligence pure science fiction. He calls the resignations of young AI researchers a "grand moralizing performance" and companies' demands for regulation "theater." On Hinton's…
Character.ai has filed for bankruptcy and is looking for a buyer. If none steps up, the platform shuts down. Founded by ex-Google researchers, the company once had over 20 million users but is now battling lawsuits over harm to minors and operational problems.
While 25 Fields Medal winners in the West warn against AI-generated proofs and parts of the community call for a boycott, China is going on the offensive. Fields Medal winner Shing-Tung Yau has launched an alliance of eight institutions and over 1,000 scientists to push AI into math research.
