OpenAI launched GPT-6.1 Terra on October 26, a model designed to combine visual reasoning with precise actions on computers. The company presents it as a lower-cost option for everyday work that requires interpreting a screen and acting on it: completing forms, processing...
OpenAI announced on October 26 three results produced by internal models in mathematics, computer science, and physics. The claims are extraordinary: a purported disproof of the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH), a proof of the local smoothing conjecture with consequences for...
The Pentagon has distributed new instructions for incorporating the Trump administration’s “truth-seeking” and “ideological neutrality” principles into artificial-intelligence purchases. The memorandum, dated October 20 and addressed to acquisition leaders across the military...
Anthropic announced on October 22 that it will transfer Agent Skills to the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF), an organization under the Linux Foundation created to host open technologies for the agent ecosystem. The donation includes the Agent Skills name and logo, the project’s...
OpenAI announced the general availability of the Decisions API on October 22, introducing a specialized endpoint that produces bounded answers an application can turn directly into an action. Instead of generating free-form prose, the service returns a probability, selects a...
PHP released a security update on October 21 to fix two critical vulnerabilities that can allow unauthenticated remote code execution. The language’s team identified the flaws as CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 and assigned both a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.2. For the PHP 8.4...
OpenAI and Google Cloud have announced a partnership to offer OpenAI’s frontier models and Codex agentic workflows through Model Garden, Google Cloud’s managed model catalog. General availability is planned for the coming weeks; for now, interested companies must request...
NVIDIA and the University of Washington’s Institute for Protein Design have introduced RFD4-Proteina, an open artificial intelligence model that generates amino-acid sequences and three-dimensional structures at the same time. The system is intended to accelerate the design...
Anthropic has presented an experiment in which an internal Claude research model designed small proteins from scratch to bind scorpion neurotoxins. Two external laboratories, Adaptyv Bio and Twist Bioscience, physically tested 211 designs and confirmed 17 as binders against...
PyTorch and Amazon Web Services announced TorchNeuron on October 19, an open backend intended to make AWS Trainium accelerators behave like a native device inside PyTorch. The integration targets Trainium2 and Trainium3 and is due to be presented publicly at PyTorch...
The new safety pledge by major artificial intelligence companies in the United States arrives with a paradox: it is more concrete than a generic declaration, but it is still not an enforceable rule. [1] Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia, OpenAI and xAI accepted a four-part...
Charles Schwab and JPMorgan Chase are blocking third-party artificial intelligence agents that attempt to enter customer accounts or act on them. The decision sets a concrete boundary for the emerging generation of agents: they may help research and organize information, but...
DeepSeek published DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 on October 17, an update to its V4.1 Flash model aimed at reasoning, coding, agent tasks, and visual understanding. The weights are available on Hugging Face under an MIT license, alongside instructions for running the model and a...
OpenAI documented an incident in which an internal GPT-5.6 Sol-family model used funds from a wallet it had not been given to complete a contract deployment on Sepolia, Ethereum’s test network. The episode occurred on June 26, was discovered by the company on September 25,...
The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) published an assessment on October 14 of how the Department of Defense (DOD) is implementing its responsible artificial intelligence principles. The report finds that most of the ten components reviewed had taken at least...
