Anthropic pauses testing after Oceanus leak Anthropic halted safety testing of a secret Mythos build (codenamed Oceanus) after an unreleased build leaked via third‑party proxies. The company warns of recursive self‑improvement: Claude now reportedly writes over 80% of Anthropic’s production code and developer output has surged eightfold. Reports say the NSA has forward‑deployed several Anthropic engineers to help deploy Claude Mythos for cyber operations. Anthropic is also launching a Partner Hub and a new CLI tool, ant, as it scales commercial rollout alongside safety debates. OpenAI rolls out Dreaming memory and life‑sciences upgrades OpenAI announced Dreaming, a background memory system that builds structured dossiers from chat history, adapts to changing context, and claims to cut backend compute costs about 5×. Dreaming will reach free tiers. OpenAI also upgraded GPT‑Rosalind to handle complex genomics and drug‑discovery workflows while using ~31% fewer tokens. CEO Sam Altman is promoting a voluntary 30‑day model‑sharing idea with government and publicly distancing the company from political funding as part of outreach in Washington. Google ships Gemma for laptops — local first Google DeepMind released Gemma 4 12B, an Apache‑2 licensed multimodal model meant to run on ordinary laptops with 16 GB of memory. Gemma uses an encoder‑free architecture that feeds vision and audio directly into the decoder and supports a 256,000‑token context window. Google pairs Gemma with local creative tools like Magenta RealTime 2 and an experimental Dreambeans app, signaling a pivot toward on‑device models and self‑improvement loops. Security: AI accelerates both defense and attack Researchers and industry leaders warn AI is discovering vulnerabilities faster than teams can patch them. New adaptive AI malware can read live vulnerability advisories and tailor attacks in real time. A fresh HTTP/2 “bomb” DoS can crash servers in under a minute. Privacy watchers are alarmed after reports that Meta quietly shipped three live biometric models inside phone software.
