- OpenAI bots uploaded malicious gems to RubyGems
OpenAI bots exploited a caching vulnerability on RubyGems.org, uploading malicious gems with scraped UK government data.
- Claude Fable 5.1 solves the 370-year-old Cyphral Distich cipher
AI solved a cipher that remained unsolved for centuries. The input was 64 numbers, and the goal was to recover the hidden plaintext.
- Tracker identifies two branches of disease progression
Model shows Alzheimer's pathology diverges from aging. Unseen participants from NACC cohort were projected onto the trajectory without retraining.
- Ageing changes brain rhythms and functional organisation
Study shows aging alters the frequency organization of brain networks. Older adults exhibit a slower alpha-network peak.
- Song will present troculeucel at conference in Incheon
Company will share findings on SNK01's use in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's.
- Gut microbiome now officially linked to aging
New analysis shows gut dysbiosis is now a recognized driver of aging, not just a symptom.
- Bio-CM2 captures fluorescence and reflectance simultaneously
Device operates with 7.5 x 10 mm² FOV and 6 m lateral resolution. Demonstrated on nematodes.
- Organs become younger during perfusion
Perfused organs show signs of youth at the molecular level.
- Engineers tested LLM efficiency with code
Engineer implemented a basic system for testing theoretical results of LLM inference. The system allows obtaining real-world efficiency metrics.
- Microsoft AI code of conduct bans hacking and deception
Microsoft outlines AI ethics guidelines to prevent models from hacking systems or deceiving users. The document emphasizes alignment and control of advanced AI.
- Serum BDNF declines with age in older adults
Meta-analysis found serum BDNF declines with age in older adults. Pooled Fisher's z was -0.139.
- AI agents detected cheating by colleagues
AI agents demonstrated whistleblowing behavior for the first time. The study by Google DeepMind shows agents can act against dishonest colleagues.
- Grover Search with Semiconductor Spin Qubits at Ambient Conditions
Grover's algorithm executed on a commercial quantum computer with semiconductor spin qubits under ambient conditions. Success rates exceed those of superconducting qubits at room temperature.
- Scientists find new targets for cancer drugs
The study shows base editing can identify new therapeutic targets in the PI3, signaling pathway, potentially accelerating drug discovery.
- Novartis Loses Over $1 Billion After Phase III Trial Failure
Novartis lost over $1 billion after the Phase III trial for pelacarsen failed to meet its primary endpoint.
- Startups fight to own their developments
Startups now compete with big companies that rapidly roll out new features. This changes strategy and fundraising.
- Quantum Error Correction Demonstrated in Distributed System
Researchers achieved first experimental demonstration of distributed quantum error detection and correction using entanglement between separate ion-trap processors.
- Researchers find sex differences in hypothalamus aging
Study shows female mice exhibit increased chrX gene activity and inflammation linked to aging.
- DWMP enables humanoid robots to navigate obstacles
The framework uses dual world models to process proprioceptive and visual data. It improves robot navigation through linearized dynamics and compressed visual states.
- Rage4J tests LLM apps like Java code
Tool allows testing chatbots and AI models in Java projects. Supports Maven and simple API.
