    OpenAI Publishes 722 Mathematics Papers at Once, Mathematicians Worry Research Will Be Flattened by AI

    OpenAI published 722 mathematics papers at once, covering number theory, geometry, and theoretical computer science, claiming progress on problems such as the Riemann Hypothesis, Catalan's constant, and the Kakeya conjecture, without peer review. Fields Medalist Hugo Duminil-Copin said 16 problems related to his research had been flattened by AI, and some doctoral students face their topics being covered and their degrees affected. The article also mentions an Anthropic researcher claiming to have disproved the Jacobian conjecture, and Shing-Tung Yau leading the establishment of a mathematics and artificial intelligence laboratory alliance.

    Will AI expose the internet's fragile infrastructure?

    TechCrunch's Equity podcast discusses this week's PHP vulnerability incident: the vulnerability had existed for decades and was discovered with the help of AI by human researchers participating in the Hack the Planet project involving OpenAI and Wiz, and website owners were told to patch immediately or take their sites offline. The guests argue that LLMs and AI agents make it easier to discover such vulnerabilities, while PHP underpins about 70% of websites including WordPress and Drupal, and the disclosure process also triggered large-scale attack attempts and link failures.

    A Chinese team turns a five-axis CNC machine tool into a desktop product: overseas crowdfunding explodes, but export controls limit it

    A Chinese team has turned a five-axis CNC machine tool into a desktop product. The WM-100 raised over $1 million on Kickstarter within 40 minutes of launch and $2.2 million within 12 hours, with a minimum price of $5,899. Because its technical specifications fall under the relevant Nuclear Suppliers Group lists, the product must apply for a license under China's dual-use item regulations, and the crowdfunding is open only to companies, universities, and research institutions. The article argues that such products reuse industrial machine tool technology and consumer electronics thinking, leveraging the Shenzhen supply chain to bring five-axis equipment down to the tens-of-thousands-of-yuan level.

    Shenzhen's imports in the first three quarters rose 70.1% year-on-year, with the AI hardware supply chain driving imports of integrated circuits and computer parts

    In the first three quarters, Shenzhen's total imports and exports reached 4.65 trillion yuan, up 38.8% year-on-year, of which imports were 2.24 trillion yuan, up 70.1% year-on-year. In September alone, imports were 323.22 billion yuan, up 103.5% year-on-year, exceeding 300 billion yuan for the first time. Imports of integrated circuits were 959.45 billion yuan, up 62.2% year-on-year, and imports of computer parts were 523.91 billion yuan, up 135% year-on-year; together they accounted for 66% of total imports. The author believes that Shenzhen is shifting from a processing and export node to a global supply chain distribution hub, while the nearly one-trillion-yuan imports of integrated circuits also reflect external dependence in core links.

    Amazon CEO Jassy on $220 Billion in Capital Expenditure: Compute Is Still in Short Supply, Inference Costs Need to Fall by Another Order of Magnitude

    Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said in an interview on the a16z podcast that the company's capital expenditure is expected to reach $220 billion in 2026, but compute capacity is already sold out for 2026, essentially fully booked for 2027, and a large share of 2028 quotas has been locked in. He described enterprise AI demand as dumbbell-shaped: a large number of production systems in the middle have yet to be deeply integrated because inference costs are too high, and costs need to fall by another order of magnitude before an explosion in adoption occurs. Jassy also noted that 99% of AWS's top 1,000 customers use Graviton, which offers about 40% better price-performance than x86, while Trainium has a 30% to 40% advantage over comparable hardware.

    AI-driven cyberattacks erupt intensively; industry insiders call October a "Black October" for cybersecurity

    Cailianshe reported that in recent weeks hackers have massively deployed AI agents and automated tools to launch attacks, and industry insiders describe this month as Black October in the cybersecurity world. A major vulnerability was exposed in PHP, and as many as 70% of websites worldwide may face the risk of being hacked. The U.S. National Security Agency and the FBI warned enterprises to shut down their websites if they cannot patch immediately, and some government websites in Canada, Belgium, France and the Netherlands have proactively gone offline. Shane Fry, chief technology officer of security firm RunSafe Security, said AI can weaponize a vulnerability into attack code within hours, whereas in the past this took weeks or even months.

    PHP2Shell vulnerability incident shows AI makes old vulnerabilities easier to exploit

    WIRED reported that the newly disclosed PHP vulnerabilities are collectively called PHP2Shell, and within hours of disclosure Cloudflare recorded millions of exploitation attempts, but the PHP Foundation said it has not yet seen a successful exploit. Researchers at security firm Calif, using frontier models from OpenAI's Patch the Planet project combined with PHP expertise, first discovered and constructed an exploit in early August, and researchers from OpenAI and Google's Wiz subsequently also independently discovered similar vulnerabilities using AI. Multiple researchers believe AI has not introduced entirely new attack methods, but has amplified the existing pace of vulnerability discovery and disclosure.

    Why AI Audit Tools Are Supplied by the Audited Party: Verification of Four Security Incidents and Seven Papers in One Week

    Using four security incidents within the week of October 16 to 23 as its thread—including two PHP remote code execution vulnerabilities discovered by AI, the backdoored LiteLLM version v1.107.0 surviving on PyPI for about two hours and being downloaded roughly 49,000 times, the OpenCode console leaking third-party model keys for 1.4% of users, and Microsoft reporting that a human organization used the open-source multi-agent penetration framework ARTEX to attack the supply chain—the article discusses the common problems facing AI auditing. After examining seven papers one by one, the author points out that the faithfulness of latent reasoning self-decoding reaches at most 0.4788, sparse autoencoders are nearly blind to backdoor shifts, probes fail when targeted by the object being optimized, and all three mainstream audit tools originate from the audited party's ecosystem or require borrowing the audited party's permissions. The article also cites the NARCBench multi-agent collusion benchmark from Oxford and New York University, as well as the report by Anthropic and Theorem using Claude to write roughly one billion lines of Rocq formal proofs for 239 entry points across 123 open-source libraries.

    Amazon CEO Jassy: AWS's AI business has an annualized revenue of over $25 billion, and $220 billion in capital expenditure for 2026 is still not enough

    Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said on the a16z podcast that in the first three years of the generative AI wave, AWS's AI business has reached an annualized revenue run rate of over $25 billion, hundreds of times AWS's roughly $60 million in its early days. He said that under capital expenditure of about $220 billion for 2026, capacity for 2026 is already sold out, 2027 is essentially sold out, and a considerable portion of 2028 has also been sold, and that inference costs are still an order of magnitude too expensive, which is the main obstacle to widespread enterprise adoption of AI. He also mentioned that the Bedrock team rebuilt the inference engine with 6 engineers in 76 days, a task that previously required 40 people for a year.

    When Meta Muse Collides with Amazon: AI Is Leaving the Chatbox to Contest the New Internet Gateway

    Meta launched its personal AI Agent Muse last month. It has an independent virtual computer and browser and can send emails, book travel, and shop on behalf of users. It reached about 2.8 million downloads within two weeks of launch, and at the October 21 earnings call it was announced that more than 10 million people had activated it. Less than two weeks after launch, Muse was blocked by Amazon from accessing its shopping site. Amazon said AI Agents should identify themselves and respect whether the service provider permits entry. The article argues that the two sides are fighting over who controls the subsequent search, comparison, decision-making, and payment after consumers form purchase intent, while Google keeps intent-to-execution within its own system through its own ecosystem such as Universal Cart.

    Goldman Sachs trading head interprets institutions' significant AI position reduction: power gap and cost of capital in focus

    Rich Privorotsky, Goldman Sachs' head of European fixed income and equity trading, revealed in an interview on the "The Markets" podcast that last week the Goldman Sachs prime brokerage business book saw the largest technology stock selloff in its history. He noted that the market expects AI capital expenditure to reach 1.1 trillion US dollars next year, but investors demand to see backlog orders converted into revenue, while a power gap of about 40 to 50 gigawatts next year casts doubt on computing power delivery. He said the macro environment is shifting from a savings glut to a spending glut, and believes spot market computing power prices are still hitting new highs, with demand showing no sign of weakening.

    When agents write code, who should get deployment permissions?

    The Tessl blog proposes that agents can write code and suggest fixes, but should not have permission to deploy to production; deployment permissions should be given to the CI/CD pipeline. The article cites a case from the Cline repository: a malicious issue title can induce its triage agent to install a package from an attacker's fork, and via a shared build cache steal an npm token to publish an unauthorized version. The author advocates treating everything an agent reads as untrustworthy, and replacing manual code review with short-lived OIDC identities, hash-locked dependencies, and an independent verifier.

    How OpenAI defines FDE: consolidating customer-customized Harness into a unified Codex

    OpenAI's FDE team was established in early 2025, with the goal of filling the deployment gap between model capabilities and customers' real-world constraints; the approach is to first get results into production, then consolidate customized solutions into reusable products. In the early days, every use case required extensive customized integration; after Codex became stronger, the team rebuilt the application on Codex, turning customized applications into plugins and skills based on Codex primitives, and self-reports that about 90% of the customized code for each project was removed. In a semiconductor customer case, about 15 FDEs covered 10+ use cases, self-reporting about 48% time savings in targeted test generation and about 22% median performance improvement in kernel optimization; in a telecom customer service voice case, the key evaluation rose from about 60% to 90%+ in about six months.

    AI mass-generates e-commerce videos: a 5-person team produces over a thousand per day, at under 5 yuan each

    Yunying Research Society analyzes that AIGC is taking over the mass-production stage of e-commerce recommendation videos; a team of about 5 people can generate over a thousand videos in a few minutes, at under 5 yuan each, while manual shooting costs about 100 to 200 yuan per video. The specific approach is to first break out fixed blocks and variable blocks to form a template, then use low-cost models such as Grok Video and the Seedance entry version to test hooks and directions, and after getting data, switch to Veo, Sora, and the Seedance HD version to produce finished products. The article also mentions that Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and Video Accounts all tightened AIGC content review this year, and that Ocean Engine reported at the end of August that it had shut down more than 50,000 violating accounts, and holds that once materials are no longer scarce, judgment and aesthetics become the new threshold.
