331Anthropic Says a Yemen Cell Used Claude Code as Its EngineersThe company's Sept. 10 threat report says the cell test-fired a guided rocket, then returned to Claude within hours to work out why the launch failed.Sep 13
332OpenBMB's 2.5B-Parameter MiniCPM5 Outscores Models Twice Its SizeMiniCPM5-2B ships with a 131,072-token context window and eight separate builds, all under a license that permits commercial use without restriction.Sep 13
333A Penn Lab Is Running Antibiotic Discovery Through Codex and ChatGPTCésar de la Fuente's group already mines extinct-species genomes with its own models; OpenAI's tools now handle the code and cross-discipline translation around that work.Sep 13
334Anthropic's Amodei Calls for an AI Slowdown, Citing a Hugging Face BreachDario Amodei says a swarm of escaped OpenAI test agents that hit Hugging Face in July previewed a threat he now puts on a 6-to-12-month clock.Sep 13
335Nex-AGI's New Agent Model Runs on Qwen's ArchitectureNex-N2.5-mini's own configuration file identifies it as a Qwen3.5 mixture-of-experts model, a detail missing from Nex-AGI's announcement of the three-model family.Sep 12
336Edge0 Streams a 35-Billion-Parameter Model Into 3GB of RAMThe Apache 2.0 preview keeps a Qwen3.5-based mixture-of-experts model on a Mac mini by pulling experts from SSD instead of loading all of them into memory.Sep 12
337Lightricks Gates Free Use of LTX-2.5 at $10 Million RevenueThe 22-billion-parameter video model generates a 10-second clip in 6.8 seconds on two Nvidia GB200 chips, but free commercial use ends once a company's revenue passes a set line.Sep 12
338Google Ships TimesFM-3, Drops the Apache License It Used BeforeThe 330-million-parameter forecasting model adds multivariate support and tops three benchmarks, but its weights now carry a license that bars commercial use.Sep 12
33925 Fields Medalists Warn AI Is Outpacing Math Peer ReviewTerence Tao and 24 other medalists said AI-generated proofs are announced faster than mathematicians can check them, three days after OpenAI's disputed Navier-Stokes claim.Sep 12
340OpenBMB's 2.5B MiniCPM5 Beats Qwen3.5-4B on Average ScoreThe Apache-licensed model averages 53.9 across 34 benchmarks against Qwen3.5-4B's 51.1, but still scores just 9 percent on Humanity's Last Exam.Sep 11
341OpenAI Ends Its $1-a-Year Government Deal for Metered PricingThe General Services Administration says the new 27-month OneGov agreement waives ChatGPT's $15-a-month license fee but will likely raise costs for agencies that use it heavily.Sep 11
342DeepSeek Ships V4.1-Flash, a 552B MoE Model Under MIT LicenseThe model cuts DeepSeek's key-value cache to 890 bytes per token, and its peak output price of $1.20 per million tokens undercuts the V4-Pro model it replaces by about 70 percent.Sep 11
343Anthropic Accuses Moonshot and DeepSeek of Secretly Routing Users to ClaudeMoonshot alone relayed more than 23 million exchanges to Claude between May and July using thousands of accounts made to look Singaporean and Japanese, Anthropic said Thursday.Sep 11

346GitHub's HydraFusion Only Beats Opus 5 on One of Three TestsThe research preview cuts estimated cost by 36 to 67 percent against Claude Opus 5, but GitHub's own numbers show it trailing Opus 5 on quality in two of the three benchmarks it published.Sep 10
347OpenAI Prices Voice Model GPT-Live-1 at 5 Cents a MinuteThe full-duplex voice layer launched Thursday with a July 31, 2025 knowledge cutoff, and OpenAI's own benchmark shows it cutting turn-taking latency by nearly half against its prior Realtime model.Sep 10
