Mistral Says Its AI Model ‘Le Chonk’ Has Leapfrogged China in the Open-Weight RaceJoel Khalili | Wired ($)

“Mistral now says Le Chonk is the ‘world’s best’ open-weight model for automated coding and cybersecurity. The advances, Mistral says, were made possible by feeding the model increasingly difficult cybersecurity and coding problems, which allowed the trillion-parameter Le Chonk to match or surpass models from leading Chinese labs like DeepSeek and Z.ai.”

AI Delivers ‘Zero Financial Payoff’ to Most Companies, Apollo Economist SaysAnthony Ha | TechCrunch

“Apollo’s Torsten Slok focuses on what he calls the S&P 493—the S&P 500, minus Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla—finding that profit margins and revenue per worker appear to be flat, with no evidence that AI is improving productivity. …’AI may be a great calculator, but in business, intelligence is mostly judgment,’ he wrote.”

An AI Breakthrough Has Made Decades of Computer Science Research ‘Irrelevant’Isabella Ward | Wired ($)

“For centuries, science has advanced through making hypotheses and proving them wrong. It also isn’t unusual for an academic to be scooped or have their work otherwise undercut by another research group. But AI has accelerated this, obliterating whole research programs and spooking researchers in specific fields of math and science who wonder where they stand now that machines can outperform them.”

Binance’s $6.3 Billion Hack Is Just the Start of a Risky New EraDavid Yaffe-Bellany and Dustin Volz | The New York Times ($)

“Binance, the world’s biggest crypto exchange, set an unwanted record on Thursday, losing $6.3 billion to hackers in an eye-popping attack that highlighted the deep vulnerabilities in crypto’s financial infrastructure. For years, the industry has struggled to prevent thefts. Now, the risks are growing even more extreme as attackers use artificial intelligence and other advanced techniques to steal funds and quickly launder them, crypto analysts and security experts said.

Google’s First Data Center Satellite Is Online and Writing PoetryTim Fernholz | TechCrunch

“Google Suncatcher’s prototype space data center is online and communicating with the ground after launching earlier this month alongside more than 100 other spacecraft on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. The satellite, which carries four Google Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) and generates up to 1 kW of electricity, is intended to pave the way for future networks of close-flying satellites performing large inference workloads in orbit.”

‘No Human at the Helm’: Delaware Plan Would Let AI Agents Run Entire BusinessesJon Brodkin | Ars Technica

“‘An AIC may have any lawful purpose, regardless of whether for profit, except for the business of banking,’ according to a draft bill that may be submitted to the Delaware State Legislature. The draft bill says AI agents could be ‘designated to manage the business and affairs, and to conduct the business, of the AIC.’ The bill proposes a ‘regulatory sandbox’ that would exist for 30 months to test the idea.”

Kodiak Lands First Commercial Deal to Supply Driverless Trucks for Public HighwaysKirsten Korosec | TechCrunch

“It’s the company’s first binding commercial deal for driverless big rigs that will run on public highways. The contract, announced Wednesday, comes just ahead of Kodiak’s next big milestone: pulling human safety operators out of the cab to begin operating a driverless highway service in December. The company, which went public in September 2025, plans to launch that service by carrying goods for Ikea on Interstate 45 between Dallas and Houston.”

Gaze at the Cosmic Dawn in Dizzying DetailKatrina Miller | The New York Times ($)

“A set of sweeping visualizations released on Sunday offers one of the most detailed simulations yet of what was happening at the dawn of our universe. The imagery charts a churning mix of dark matter and the hot, gaseous hydrogen and helium that was pervasive across the early cosmos as it evolved, between 50 million and 2 billion years after the Big Bang.”

How Beta Technologies Is Clearing the Runway for Electric FlightTom Clynes | IEEE Spectrum

“The promise of lower operating costs and cleaner flight has pushed electric aircraft from a fringe experiment to one of the aviation industry’s most closely watched frontiers. After years of renderings, prototypes, and overly optimistic timetables, companies are now flying full-size aircraft, submitting hardware to regulators for certification, building factories, and testing routes with prospective customers.”

These Tiny Trackers Were Designed to Be Light Enough for a ButterflyHunter Schwarz | Fast Company

“To build a device tiny and light enough for a monarch butterfly, designers had to make the smallest wildlife tracking device on the planet. A tiny tiny transmitter for butterflies designed by the New Jersey-based Cellular Tracking Technologies (CTT) is called the BlūMorpho. It’s just three-and-a-half centimeters (1.4 inches) long, weighs about as much as a grain of rice, and works without a battery.”

Please Let the Internet DieMiles Klee | Wired ($)

“Any rational observer can admit that the current iteration of the web—and the social fabric woven there—is not what they signed up for. …Wouldn’t it be liberating, then, to actually deny our attention to astroturfed outrage, engineered virality, and influencer sponcon? To let the mainstream digital economies propped up by AI-enabled surveillance finally fall to ruin? …Leaving their platforms for dead might be the last lever of power available to the masses.”

Cloudflare zjistil, že některé odpovědi modelu GLM-5.3 obsahovaly části dat z předchozích požadavků jiných zákazníků. Příčinou byla kombinace chybné konfigurace a chyby v inference enginu SGLang. Model podporoval kontextové okno 1 048 576 tokenů, ale GPU KV cache pool měl kapacitu pouze 681 280 tokenů. Při překročení kapacity docházelo k nesprávnému zpracování odmítnutého požadavku. Decode část systému následně pracovala se starými KV cache pages, které obsahovaly data předchozího požadavku. Cloudflare identifikoval 155 ovlivněných odpovědí. Problém opravil změnou konfigurace i úpravou samotného inference enginu. Problém s izolací tenantů tedy může vzniknout i bez klasického memory corruption exploitu.
