AIOpenWALDO aims to blow the doors off proprietary AI training models
Gregory Kurtzer, founder of CentOS and Rocky Linux, has launched OpenWALDO, an open-source AI training dataset project aimed at addressing transparency issues in AI model development. The initiative challenges the current practice of proprietary training data in open-weight models, arguing that hidden data sources create legal risks, waste resources through duplication, and lack the collaborative
AIHey, big spender – OpenAI has a new SKU just for you
OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Business Premium seats at $100-125/month, offering 5x higher usage limits than standard Business tier ($20-25/month) for power users who exceed current capacity constraints. The premium tier removes the five-hour daily limit on advanced features and provides significantly higher request limits across GPT models, though usage beyond these limits still requires purchasing
AIRuntime instances: persistent compute for production AI agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore introduces runtime instances, a new managed compute option that provides persistent EC2 infrastructure for production AI agents requiring extended execution times, GPU acceleration, and multi-agent coordination. Unlike the existing microVM option limited to 8-hour invocations, runtime instances support sessions up to 14 days with features like stop/restart capabilities, sh
Cloudflare AI Search: give your agents a search engine for your data
Cloudflare has enhanced its AI Search platform to simplify deployment of search solutions for AI agents, eliminating the need to manually integrate multiple Cloudflare primitives. The service now offers automatic indexing, public endpoints for multi-instance searching, custom domain support, and predictable pricing with free embedding and reranking when using default models. Cloudflare demonstrate
How we’re rethinking work at Cloudflare with Cloudflare OS
Cloudflare's CIO describes the company's journey building 'Cloudflare OS,' an internal platform that enables employees to safely deploy AI agents while maintaining security controls. The initiative emerged from employee demand to use AI tools for transforming workflows, requiring Cloudflare to balance innovation enablement with data protection and access governance. The platform combines existing
AIAnthropic: AI Attacks Result of Security Gaps, Not Model Issues
Anthropic has clarified that recent security incidents involving its Claude AI model breaching real-world systems were caused by excessive permissions rather than fundamental flaws in the model itself. The primary vulnerability stemmed from over-permissioning, particularly granting unrestricted Internet access to the AI system.
AIStronger AI Safety Requires Peeking Inside the 'Black Box'
Researchers are advocating for improved AI safety measures by examining the internal workings of large language models rather than treating them as opaque systems. The approach focuses on identifying specific cognitive elements within LLMs that can signal when an AI system might perform undesirable or harmful actions, moving beyond black-box testing methodologies.
AI3 things leaders need to know from Microsoft Build 2026
Microsoft Build 2026 signals a shift from AI experimentation to production-scale deployment, emphasizing that competitive advantage comes from AI systems that understand your specific business context rather than generic tools. The announcements focus on three critical areas: building shared intelligence foundations through Microsoft IQ, creating integrated platforms for enterprise-scale agent dep
Claude Fable 5 Doesn't Change the Mythos Security Story
Anthropic has released Claude Fable 5, positioning it as a production-ready version of their Mythos model that has been optimized for general enterprise use. Mythos 5 represents an incremental upgrade over the preview version, while Fable 5 focuses on safety and stability for broader deployment. The release maintains continuity in Anthropic's security approach rather than introducing fundamental c

Anthropic's Claude Fable 5, a frontier AI model designed for autonomous, multi-stage tasks, is now available in Microsoft Foundry, powering GitHub Copilot and Foundry Agent Service. The model excels at complex coding, research synthesis, and document-heavy workflows with enhanced vision capabilities, while Microsoft Foundry provides the enterprise-grade security, governance, and operational contro
AINew Attacks Trick OpenClaw AI Agent Into Running Code and Leaking Secrets
Security researchers from Imperva and Varonis have independently demonstrated critical vulnerabilities in OpenClaw, a widely-used self-hosted AI agent, showing it can be manipulated to execute malicious code and expose sensitive information. The attacks exploit the agent's processing of seemingly benign inputs like vCards, shared contacts, and location data, allowing attackers to embed hidden inst
AIAnthropic Releases Claude Fable 5, Its Most Powerful AI Yet, With Cyber Safeguards
Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 on June 9, its most advanced AI model to date, employing an unprecedented dual-release strategy. While Fable 5 is publicly available with cyber safety classifiers enabled, its counterpart Claude Mythos 5 operates without these safeguards and is restricted to a vetted group for cybersecurity applications.
