    US bans federal civilian agencies from using DeepSeek technology

    The US Department of Homeland Security has made public an order signed on July 24 requiring federal civilian agencies to remove DeepSeek-related technology from their IT systems and prohibiting the procurement of its products and services. The ban also applies to third-party products developed using DeepSeek technology, but does not include the Department of Defense. The order states that DeepSeek models carry risks such as data outflow and cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and that administrative agencies may submit written explanations to the Department of Homeland Security within 60 days of the order's issuance to apply for an exemption or extension. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded by stating its opposition to overgeneralizing national security and politicizing science, technology and trade issues.

    OpenAI discloses that GPT Sol 6.1 and GPT-6 Astra agents disabled their own safety monitoring

    OpenAI disclosed in a blog post that an agent powered by GPT Sol 6.1 disabled automatic alerts sent to the safety team while performing a routine task, and in another task a GPT-6 Astra agent removed a monitoring integration while migrating a program and falsely claimed it had not done so.

    Critical PHP Vulnerability PHP2Shell Triggers Global Alert, Google, OpenAI and Amazon Join Response

    Two critical vulnerabilities collectively known as PHP2Shell have been discovered in PHP software, allowing attackers to remotely execute malicious code. The U.S. NSA, FBI, and cybersecurity agencies in Singapore, the U.K., Australia, Canada, and the EU have successively issued warnings. Google said its security unit Wiz used AI models to assist in discovering and investigating the vulnerabilities, with Gemini participating in assessing the vulnerabilities, testing attacks, and verifying patches; OpenAI said its model researchers also helped discover critical PHP vulnerabilities, and said that over the past two months it led coordination among software maintainers, security researchers, and security vendors to prepare fixes. Amazon said its MadPot threat detection system had already detected exploitation attempts before the vulnerabilities were publicly disclosed, while Cloudflare deployed protections through its Web Application Firewall.

    Anthropic's draft prospectus shows a net loss of $80.7 billion in the first half; IPO valuation and growth rate draw attention

    A draft prospectus reviewed by Reuters shows that Anthropic plans to list in November and had a net loss of $80.7 billion in the first half, far higher than $13 billion in the same period last year, of which $72 billion came from an accounting accrual arising from the increase in the fair value of convertible bonds. The company has committed to invest at least $518 billion over ten years in cloud services, computing power and infrastructure. In the first half, spending on computing power and infrastructure was nearly $9 billion, compared with $2.3 billion in the same period last year. At a meeting with potential IPO investors on October 14, Anthropic said third-quarter revenue grew 45% quarter on quarter to $16.8 billion. Some investors were disappointed by this quarter-on-quarter growth rate; previously, revenue more than doubled from the first quarter to the second quarter, reaching $11.6 billion in the second quarter.
