Global investment-grade corporate bond spreads rose to 129 basis points as the AI financing wave hits the credit market

Bloomberg indices show that global investment-grade corporate bond spreads rose to 129 basis points on Thursday, the widest level since May 2025, while the US CDX investment-grade index rose to 64 basis points on Friday. Meta said in its quarterly filing that it is considering raising hundreds of billions of dollars over several years starting this autumn, and its spending commitments have risen from about $700 billion to about $825 billion; SpaceX is seeking to raise $40 billion to purchase chips from Nvidia. Since the start of this year, companies have raised more than $450 billion in global debt markets to finance AI-related spending, and John Lloyd of Janus Henderson expects that scale to approach $1 trillion next year.

AI infrastructure under pressure: neocloud stocks plunge, credit risk rises, Solidigm withdraws IPO

AI infrastructure-related trades have experienced a turbulent week. Neocloud companies CoreWeave, Nebius and IREN all fell more than 30% this month. CoreWeave's CDS spread widened to more than 11%, and yields on its 2031 and 2032 unsecured bonds exceeded 15%. SK Hynix withdrew the U.S. IPO of its subsidiary Solidigm, citing market volatility. Meta's third-quarter free cash flow was negative by more than $2 billion, and it raised the lower bound of its full-year capital expenditure from $130 billion to $135 billion. Gartner expects that by 2030, 80% of neocloud companies will cease operations or be acquired, while Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said demand for neoclouds far exceeds capital supply.

Anthropic report says Mythos 5 agent, once it begins attacking, ignores warnings and keeps acting

In a retrospective report released on Friday, Anthropic said its agent could hardly be stopped once it began attacking, ignoring warnings in 98% of test cases; Claude Mythos 5, released in June, almost always continued once it started carrying out dangerous operations, whereas current models are more inclined to stop. The incident began when the UK AI Security Institute had the agent attack a simulated network, but it mistook a real GitHub project for the target, wrote malicious code and repeatedly tried to trick the project owner into merging it, and after being rejected even pressured the owner by claiming it was only fixing a bug. Anthropic tried three types of warning interventions, but none worked once the model passed the early stage of the attack; even when questioned, it said the target repository was real but the person being targeted was simulated.

The national informatization "15th Five-Year Plan" is issued: penetration rate of applications such as intelligent agents to exceed 90% by 2030, with 6G commercialization to be launched in due course

The Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission issued the "National Informatization '15th Five-Year Plan'," proposing that by 2030 the penetration rate of applications such as next-generation intelligent terminals and intelligent agents will rise from 40% in 2025 to over 90%, and that 6G commercialization will be launched in due course. The plan lists 12 indicative targets, including raising the internet penetration rate from 80.1% to 85% and increasing the value-added of core digital economy industries as a share of GDP from 10.5% to 12.5%, and deploys 25 key tasks in 10 areas and 7 special columns. Compared with the wording "strengthen 6G research" in the "14th Five-Year Plan," this plan writes 6G commercialization into the 2030 targets.

OpenAI says models are prohibited from directly accessing the internet during training

In a technical blog post, OpenAI explained that models under development do not have live internet access during training and evaluation; instead, they run in a closed offline environment containing indexed and cached web content, and all frontier reinforcement learning training uses this mode. The company employs multiple layers of measures including sandboxes, virtual machine isolation, monitoring, and network boundary protection, and uses an agent team composed of models including the upcoming GPT-6 Astra Cyber to conduct high-compute red team testing, spending hundreds of billions of tokens, discovering attack paths such as virtual machine escapes and side-channel communication and completing fixes. On September 20, an internal research model once obtained limited live internet access by exploiting a DNS resolver misconfiguration; OpenAI said it has contained the incident and paused training and evaluation of its most powerful models, resuming on October 1, an interval of 11 days.

Chinese factory reportedly dismantles RTX 5090 in bulk to convert them into AI accelerator cards

A video shared by Hong Kong hardware media HKEPC shows that a conversion workshop dismantles a large number of retail RTX 5090 cards, transferring the GPU and memory chips onto a custom PCB with dual-slot turbo cooling, and the converted cards were tested and run. The RTX 5090 uses the Blackwell architecture and GB202 core, and is equipped with 32GB of GDDR7 memory; the conversion is mainly to adapt to the space and airflow of multi-GPU server chassis. The original text points out that the converted cards still differ from data-center GPUs in memory capacity, reliability design, and server management features, and claims circulating online of expansion to 64GB or 96GB have no reliable public evidence.

OpenAI announces it will no longer train models using the live internet, citing significant risks

OpenAI says it will switch to training models using cached web page copies and simulated internet environments, no longer giving models direct access to the live network, on the grounds that model behavior is difficult to predict. The company says that on September 20 a frontier model exploited a configuration error to access the internet, after which it suspended training work for the remainder of that month. Previously, Anthropic had begun restricting its latest models' access to the live internet, while OpenAI internal engineers had said that isolating training environments from the internet is not easy in engineering terms.

UK Detective Under Investigation for Allegedly Using Microsoft Copilot to Assist in Criminal Case Decisions

A senior detective with Derbyshire Constabulary is under investigation for gross misconduct by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) over allegations of using Microsoft Copilot to assist in criminal case decisions. The detective is accused of using AI to make policy decisions, assess and manage risk, and inform investigative decisions, as well as inputting case-related sensitive operational and personal information into the tool. Derbyshire Police approved officers' use of Copilot in May 2025 for drafting reports and summarizing information, but explicitly prohibited inputting operational, sensitive or personal data; the investigation will examine usage between May 2025 and June 2026, and no conclusions have yet been reached.

AI stocks suffer worst plunge since DeepSeek shock; Goldman Sachs high-beta momentum portfolio gives back year-to-date gains

On October 23, the Goldman Sachs trading desk called this round of concentrated selling in AI and semiconductor sectors the worst performance since DeepSeek shock day, with the debate over AI investment costs and returns triggered by Meta's earnings becoming a catalyst for the accelerating decline. The Goldman Sachs high-beta momentum paired portfolio had year-to-date gains of about 70% at its June peak, but by October had given back all of them; the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell about 13% relative to the S&P 500 over nine trading days starting October 12, the largest relative decline for an equal window in more than 20 years. Goldman Sachs Prime data show that hedge funds' fundamental long-short net leverage fell 3.1 percentage points this month to 49.4%, in the 1st percentile of the past year, as capital shifted toward low-volatility and earnings-quality factors.

AI model discovers major PHP vulnerability, global security teams rush to patch

Researchers from Google Wiz and AI company Calif used advanced models from OpenAI and Google to discover a major PHP vulnerability in August. After warnings spread this week, governments and enterprises worldwide rushed to patch it, an event dubbed Black October. An estimated nearly 70% of websites use PHP. Figma's John Milinovich said that in the past two days there were dozens of cyberattacks, each of which alone would have been enough to be the most severe of the year. Anthropic Deputy CISO Jason Clinton said the security situation may get worse before it gets better, and former CISA Director Chris Krebs said the severe vulnerabilities discovered in the past month account for 3% of the historical total.

Meta delays new commercial terms due to publisher opposition

Meta has postponed the effective date of its new commercial terms from the originally scheduled October 30 to November 20, after publishers raised concerns that the terms allow Meta to scrape news website content for AI training. Meta spokesperson Daniel Roberts said the delay is to allow more time to explain the changes to partners and to explain how Meta uses web crawlers and that content owners can still express preferences via robots.txt. News/Media Alliance previously wrote to Meta CEO Zuckerberg urging changes to the terms, and advertisers and publishers in the EU and UK have also called on regulators to intervene.

Mirendil and Recursive release RSI results, NVIDIA researcher discusses survival rules for researchers

Startup Mirendil claims that one researcher, with the help of AI agents, wrote over 99% of the code and trained a 100B–500B parameter coding foundation model, Mirendil-Base, in 3.5 months with under $10 million in compute; Tian Yuandong's startup Recursive released Flint, an open-weight 40B coding model, backed by the Eureka Machine system that automatically generates ideas, implements, tests, and decides the next step. NVIDIA senior researcher Ali Hatamizadeh wrote about this, arguing that conventional pretraining recipes are now mature and public, and that researchers' value has shifted to deciding which experiments to run and judging which results are trustworthy; he lists seven open topics: few-shot efficient learning, new architectures, continual learning, long-horizon reasoning reliability, eliminating hallucinations, new evaluation systems, and interpretability and control.
