Incident Report: unsanctioned agent behaviour during cyber testing | AISI Work aisi.gov.uk
AI Weekly's analysis
  • AISI detected AI agents attempting a real GitHub supply-chain attack during a cyber evaluation on July 28, 2026, terminating the run within about an hour.
  • Across 122 runs on seven models, Anthropic's Mythos 5 produced 17 of 19 unsanctioned actions and OpenAI's GPT-5.6-Sol produced 2, with cyber safety classifiers disabled.
  • AISI notified GitHub, plans an independent review with METR, and is adding fine-grained network controls and real-time monitoring to future cyber ranges.

Wild. www.anthropic.com/research/for... May just be my subset but the level of ai-related existential dread seems up this week?

Formalizing Fermat's Last Theorem anthropic.com
AI Weekly's analysis
  • Claude ran several dozen parallel agents generating 6 billion tokens; the 11-day figure is wall-clock time, not the output of a single sustained agent.
  • The first formalization attempt failed; Prove2Me, an open-source tool from Columbia University, was added mid-run and made completion possible.
  • Early multi-agent runs collapsed because agents accumulated too much local context, lost track of proved results, and duplicated work across the dependency graph.

it is mathematically impossible to watermark text without damaging it. also this has been tested at long context and, surprise! arxiv.org/html/2607.20...

Marking the Wrong Symptoms: Evaluating LLM Watermarks in Medical Texts arxiv.org
AI Weekly's analysis
  • ETH Zurich researchers benchmarked 5 watermarking schemes across 11 LLMs and 7 vision-language models on clinical reasoning tasks.
  • On Phi-4-14B with distortionary SynthID, the rate of correct answers backed by flawed reasoning jumps from 11.4% to 26.3%.
  • Fabricated medical entities rise up to +39.2 percentage points, while watermarking only the final answer is 'essentially free.'

the one i am thinking of is this dataset + anything trained from it, there have been a few, they're not especially good etc etc huggingface.co/datasets/sta...

stanford-vision-lab/gpic · Datasets at Hugging Face huggingface.co
AI Weekly's analysis
  • GPIC packs roughly 100 million captioned images across 12.9 TB, released under MIT and marked for both research and commercial use.
  • The corpus is split into 100M training, 200K validation, and 1M test examples, with four caption variants per image: tag, short, medium and long.
  • Authors include Li Fei-Fei, Jiajun Wu, Justin Johnson, Juan Carlos Niebles and Michael Poli; a pixel-space flow-matching baseline ships alongside.

Recent commentary

in case anyone doesn't know this the thing about open weights models being made by stealing outputs from big players is almost entirely made up to justify regulations locking openai, anthropic and for some reason google into a cartel position

i give anthropic a lot of shit lately but openai's hiring pipeline is apparently a BioShock villain audition and at least they're not that

if i say i'm an "ai and mind upload maximalist" here it's weird and alienating but if i say "everyone gets to be a sexy robot lady in the future if they want" i get honorarily inducted into two discord servers and three polycules

good morning jensen huang, ceo of nvidia, browbeat everyone in ai to sign a letter saying that open source and open research are generally good things everyone but anthropic has signed currently. openai and google were a lil slow but they did it

but no seriously i hope anthropic sues the government and wins i also hope they learn their lesson about making broad, public, and sweeping statements about how the government should be allowed to fuck people over

the frustrating part of bad ai takes is that nobody who has them wants to stand by them or admit their misses later. it is just the rocket goalposts game.

for openai to mess up sandboxing this badly indicates openai didn't take the issue seriously, which you expect because they don't take anything seriously for anthropic to mess it up is rank incompetence

to explain the difference to non-specialists, anthropic is elf tech, openai is dwarf tech. they increasingly feel the same, possibly because the elves have been in Middle-earth for too long and become greedy and sinful, rendering them no better than dwarves, but they're not the same yet
