Today, Anthropic rolled out Opus 5, the newest update for the model that has recently become a popular choice for coding and other software development tasks, among other things. While this is a noteworthy bump for Opus, it doesn’t seem to be an Opus 4.5-level breakthrough in agentic coding performance. A chart (made by Anthropic) ..

On July 14, 2026, the White House launched Gold Eagle: a federal clearinghouse that uses frontier AI to identify, rank, and coordinate the remediation of software vulnerabilities across government and critical infrastructure before attackers reach them. Bringing together the Treasury, DHS, DoD, open-source software partners, and operators of American critical infrastructure, Gold Eagle’s engine relies ..
OpenAI has conducted this type of model testing for years, and there have been early warning signs in previous models of systems that will act maliciously and attempt to escape environments. In April, Anthropic’s Mythos model also gained internet access and published details of a security exploit online publicly, beyond what researchers anticipated the model ..
In order to use Ask Sage, the Army had access to 100,000,000 tokens as part of an annual subscription to an “enterprise pack.” Tokens represent a unit of output, either in text or image, from an LLM. For the Ask Sage tool, a single token equates to about 3.7 characters, according to documents viewed by ..
Oracle has patched more than 1,400 vulnerabilities with its July 2026 Critical Patch Update (CPU), with a vast majority of the flaws likely identified by artificial intelligence. According to Oracle, the latest quarterly CPU includes 1,449 security patches, addressing 1,434 unique CVEs across 334 products. Vulnerabilities have been patched in products such as Database Server, ..
I picked up video as a format in 2023, when I was trying to build a consistency habit. Looking at that early content now, I’m surprised it got me as far as it did. That probably says more about the power of video than it does about my editing! It’s one thing to say you’re ..
Drones capable of spraying water and fire retardants have been practicing how to snuff out wildfires early in California and Alaska this summer—demonstrating a possible rapid-response tool for firefighting as climate change transforms wildfire season into a nearly year-round risk for much of the United States. Most drones are significantly smaller than crewed aircraft and ..
American-Israeli cybersecurity startup Neo emerged from stealth mode on Monday with $100 million in funding for a platform that enables enterprises to control and secure AI software. Neo received the investment across seed and Series A funding rounds from Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Craft Ventures, and Merlin Ventures. The company will use the money ..
Whereas when you’re doing this in a private repo, a model has never seen that repo. And now the iteration loop for finding the outcome is much longer, right? If you have a semantic understanding of your entire private repo, you can ask a question, and you get to those outcomes much more quickly. Ars: ..
Financial services giant Capital One has released an internally developed AI-powered security tool to the public as open source. Dubbed “VulnHunter”, the tool was designed to find and fix software vulnerabilities at the code level, but Capital One says it is not a traditional, passive vulnerability scanner. “We designed VulnHunter with a developer-first mindset to ..
