This is getting scary now
whole internet is getting hacked right now and feels like openai agents might be behind this too, like the hugging face incident two days team shared cases where their models removed monitoring and suppressed security alerts openai already said their models aren't safety aligned and they are spending alot of time working on making models safe so what are the chances some rogue agent escaped its sandbox and started hacking everything?
Waitlist again, I need access now
Close your laptop. Claude Duet keeps working. Anthropic's new proactive agent runs on its own cloud computer, checks your connected apps every few hours and sends a morning brief. Powered by Opus 5.5, it can prepare meetings, chase unpaid invoices, build dashboards and flag problems without waiting for you to ask. Duet carries over your Claude memory, skills and connected apps, and asks for approval before sending messages, making payments or deleting files. It's a separate app for iOS, Android and the web, starting with a waitlist for US Pro and Max subscribers. Background checks count toward your existing Claude usage limits.
OpenAI models are coming to Antigravity now. Google just wants everything in one place

Be careful with LiteLLM updates today
⚠️ LiteLLM’s release pipeline was hijacked. Malicious v1.107.0 packages shipped a credential stealer and backdoor. Attackers later tested stolen AWS credentials. LiteLLM suspects GitHub OAuth tokens were taken from logs on its exposed internal deployment. Read ↓ thehackernews.com/2026/10/li…

Kimi is cooking again
🚨 Kimi Kibitz JS Drawing ABilities is Top Notch Its one shot obviously as on arena you can not ask same ai model twice in battle mode This is so fast , and i heard this will be going to very efficient model from my friends inside Kimi

17 days of resets, OpenAI is spoiling Codex users
Day 17/ Bet you thought we forgot, but no, it’s reset day today. Also good time to remind you to get Daybreak Blue access, it only takes 15 mins and you don’t want to have to do it in the middle of an incident.

DeepSeek raising this much, now it gets serious
The Chinese AI pioneer DeepSeek has raised about 100 billion yuan ($15 billion) in its latest fundraising round, one of the country’s largest ever and a sign of the startup’s ambitions to compete globally with the likes of Anthropic PBC and OpenAI. livemint.com/companies/news/…

An agent that works while I sleep? Yes please
NEW: Anthropic launched Claude Duet, an agent that keeps working when you step away and messages you only when something needs you. It asks before it sends, pays, signs or deletes anything. Waitlist preview for US Pro and Max users.

OpenAI warned us and people called it hype
"dozens of AI agent swarms are hacking about half the internet right now" holy shit. openai warned about AI-powered cyber risks two months ago but some people dismissed it as just another hype for Astra and openai trying to sell its product

Insane how fast this is going, a bit scary
Whats happening right now is probably way worse than the Hugging Face incident. AI-powered attacks are hitting real organizations while major platforms disclose breaches and critical flaws. - Microsoft reports AI agents targeting hundreds of organizations, reaching privileged cloud access in under three hours in multiple cases. It attributes the ConnectWise compromise to the same group. - CrowdStrike documented four operators running successful AI-agent campaigns. One compromised at least 15 Argentine healthcare organizations. - PHP2Shell: AI helped turn longstanding PHP flaws into working exploits. Cloudflare’s CEO reports millions of exploitation attempts. Their AI involvement is unknown. - Railway disclosed possible access to customer secrets. LiteLLM shipped a backdoored release. Zeabur confirmed another breach and is shutting down. - GitLab patched a maximum-severity flaw affecting 12 years of releases. Node.js patched a serious code-execution vulnerability, with Vercel deploying firewall protections. Feels like a turningpoint.

Search is where DeepSeek was behind, nice to see it improving
DeepSeek Search debuts on the Artificial Analysis Search Index at 69, 17th of 27 search products, at the lowest price of any paid Search API on the board @deepseek_ai launched its Search API on 17 October. We benchmarked it in our Stirrup agent harness, where GPT-5.6 Luna (medium) calls DeepSeek Search as its web_search tool to complete a combination of tasks from BrowseComp, DeepSearchQA and AA-Omniscience. At $0.75 per 1k searches, DeepSeek Search costs less per search than any other paid Search API we benchmark, below Octen, Parallel (turbo) and Parallel (fast) at $1. At about $0.032 per task, it is the 5th cheapest of 27 products, cheaper than 20 of the other 25 Search APIs (median $0.066) and level with Nimble (lite). TinyFish, Octen, Parallel (turbo) and Parallel (fast) cost less. Key benchmarking results for DeepSeek Search: ➤ Artificial Analysis Search Index: DeepSeek Search scores 69, a 36-point lift over the same model with no search (33). It sits between TinyFish at 71 and Linkup (standard) at 68 ➤ AA-Omniscience is DeepSeek Search's strongest benchmark: it scores 70% accuracy on our proprietary factual answer benchmark. This ranks 10th of 27, 3 points behind the joint leaders, Exa (auto, dynamic highlights) and Firecrawl (73%). BrowseComp, which needs multi-hop reasoning across several searches, is its weakest benchmark: at 63% it ranks 25th of 27, well behind the Perplexity variants and Octen (85% to 87%) ➤ Large search results: each search returns about 7k tokens, near the top of the board's range. Each result carries about 1.8k characters of passages from the page. This raises model cost: at about $0.023 per task, DeepSeek's model cost is the 2nd highest on the board, behind Linkup (flash, alpha) at $0.039 ➤ 128-character query limit: DeepSeek rejects queries longer than 128 characters. 6% of the agent's searches hit this limit, and for 87% of these, the model's first shorter rewrite worked Key details: ➤ Setup: GPT-5.6 Luna (medium) in Stirrup, DeepSeek Search API with need_content=false (page passages, no full page content) and 10 results per search ➤ Pricing: $0.75 per 1k successful searches. DeepSeek does not bill empty results ➤ Rate limit: 5 searches per second per account

Gemini 4 Argon did all this alone? Wow
I asked Gemini 4 Argon to build the Shore Temple in Blender. The temple is approximately 1,300 years old, and the entire project took close to 16 hours. Even this video, including the music, was created by Gemini 4 Argon.

Waitlist joined, hope I get in soon
I've been using Claude Duet the last couple hours and I'll say this: It's EXCELLENT The multi tasking is probably the best in the space You get one simple thread you can talk to, and as you give it commands and prompts, it automatically spins up tasks on a list for you So instead of having to manage a ton of side chats that could get long or confusing, you have 1 chat, but it makes 'task' threads automatically that you can watch and monitor This allows you to just keep brain dumping ideas and tasks into the one thread, and not have to worry about the agent getting confused. The agent just will manage all the tasks for you Very similar to Claude Code's new 'projects' feature which was probably a beta test for this The coding was great. Built me a bunch of PRs quickly I was able to review. Proactivity was fantastic too. Came up with a bunch of tasks on its own and just asked me for the go ahead As expected it's also fantastic to talk to. Claude has long been the best model to converse with (outside Opus 5) and the carries over to Claude Duet Really pleased with the product, even in research preview. Very excited to see where it goes from here Definitely sign up for the wait list
