6 days and $40,000 of compute with GPT-5.6 Sol to find a critical vulnerability in Chrome, claiming Google’s first full-chain reward in 2026 for a vulnerability that would affect an estimated 1 billion users. Highlights the opportunity for defenders to utilize these tools to secure their software to unprecedented levels:Read original on X
OpenAI just got a problem no better model can fix. For $8 a month, Elon now sells his AI, an AI coding editor, and X Premium on one bill. Microsoft ran this exact play in 1995 and erased an 80% market leader in four years without ever building the better browser. The victim was Netscape. It owned the browser market, Microsoft made Internet Explorer free with every copy of Windows, and by 1999 Netscape was selling itself to AOL. Nobody ever found a counter to it. Today's version is buried in Cursor's reply, where almost nobody will scroll. Paid plans get twice the coding usage on Grok models, and third-party models move to API pricing "to make room for more Grok usage." Inside the most popular AI coding editor, that means same keystrokes, same tab-complete, one model subsidized by a $1.25…Read original on X
cursor just got nerfed into oblivion but nobody is talking about it for some reason this new pricing model completely kills the usage allowance for third party models any non grok model (gpt, claude, etc) is billed as extra usage genuinely zero reason to pay for this sub nowRead original on X

The Yang-Mills Working Group plans to publish OpenAI's submitted code and its validation, so the claim can be checked by mathematicians.
Disney plans to use the Adobe models in its studios and at its theme parks, tailored to its own properties.
Both new models are available now, giving developers and businesses fresh options from a leading AI lab.
The models are pitched at harder coding, reasoning, and vision work, which matters to developers and businesses choosing which models to build on.
