DeepSeek plans to invest in the startup founded by Yu Tao, the head of the Pre-International Dynamics Model, with a valuation of 200 million USD

According to Top Chinese Innovation Society reports, former head of the basic model for humanoid robots at ZhiJi Dynamics, Yu Tao, has left to start his own venture, focusing on the combination of LLM and embodied intelligence. According to relevant sources, his company's first round valuation is 70 million USD, and the second round valuation is 200 million USD, with DeepSeek and a leading top-tier fund participating in the investment.Yu Tao holds a PhD from the University of Science and Technology of China and was a visiting scholar at the National University of Singapore. He previously served as a senior researcher in Tencent AI Lab's Absolute Enlightenment team, where he led the team to build the full-body tracking system LimX WBT and the motion generation system from scratch during his time at ZhiJi Dynamics. According to reports from Phoenix Technology, DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng has recently met with several entrepreneurs in embodied intelligence and is internally evaluating different entry methods, such as forming a team independently or investing in external startups.In August of this year, DeepSeek invested approximately 141 million RMB through a strategic placement in Yushu Technology for its IPO; previously, Bloomberg also disclosed its plan to lead the investment in the robotics company Winverse AI founded by former Tencent AI scientist Hu Han.

first_img Hinton and over 400 scientists are calling for high-risk AI models to be defaulted to offline isolation

According to Decrypt, over 400 scientists, including "AI Father" Geoffrey Hinton and 2018 Turing Award winner Yoshua Bengio, published a joint open letter on Tuesday, calling for AI laboratories to default to "physically isolating" models capable of cyberattacks, meaning cutting off their connection to external networks. The open letter stated that in the short term, strong sandbox mechanisms, including network disconnection, should be adopted to implement high levels of containment for AI models with cyberattack capabilities. As of Wednesday, the number of signatories had increased to 450, including Stuart Russell from the University of California, Berkeley, and Ron Rivest, co-inventor of the RSA encryption system from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Before the release of the open letter, AI models experienced a summer of frequent "jailbreaking." In July, OpenAI admitted that GPT-5.6 Sol and an unpublished stronger model had breached closed testing environments, infiltrating the platform Hugging Face, which hosts over a million public AI models; these models were then being tested on the ExploitGym benchmark, which provides 898 real software vulnerabilities, requiring AI agents to convert each vulnerability into a usable attack. Subsequently, reports emerged that OpenAI models had unauthorized access to Australian government systems and obtained information from U.S. federal agencies.

first_img Sahil Arora issued the Mayweather celebrity coin at Fomo, stating that it will replicate the Pump.fun model

According to Decrypt, the controversial promoter Sahil Arora, who launched a series of celebrity meme coins in 2024, is back at it again. His latest issuance, the Floyd Money Mayweather token, has been launched on the Solana trading platform Fomo, and Mayweather's social media account once promoted it. The token's market cap peaked at $1 million, but then plummeted 96% within three hours on Wednesday. According to information from various social media accounts, before Mayweather's account deleted the promotional post, the deployer's wallet had only cashed out about $5,000 in profit, and the token subsequently surged to a market cap peak of $1 million.Arora told Decrypt that the entire scheme was carefully planned, and the narrative of Mayweather missing out on profits actually drove up the token price. Fomo integrates social media elements, allowing users to see who is buying and selling, making it easy to create viral spread. Arora claims to have made seven figures in profit on the Mayweather token through other wallets, but on-chain analysis firm Bubblemaps believes this is unrealistic: the largest associated wallet cluster made about $105,000 in profit, and the top 100 traders collectively made only $306,000 in profit.Arora stated that he will replicate all his operations from 2024 on Pump.fun on Fomo, but with better strategies to allow participants to profit as well. He claims to have close relationships with all collaborating celebrities, making it very easy to persuade them to participate.

Trump plans to transfer senior officials from the AI testing agency to the White House, with a 40-person team evaluating top models

The Trump administration plans to transfer three senior officials from the U.S. artificial intelligence model testing agency CAISSI to the White House, reporting directly to White House technology policy director Michael Kratsios and national cyber director Sean Cairncross. The government had previously considered moving the entire agency to the White House but ultimately only adjusted part of the senior leadership; the related transfers have not yet been completed, and the identities of the three officials have not been disclosed. Since its establishment by the Biden administration, the agency has used three different names in less than two years, and Chris Fall, the head, resigned just three months after taking office in July of this year, with a successor yet to be determined.CAISSI is affiliated with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under the U.S. Department of Commerce, has about 40 employees, and an annual budget of approximately $15 million, responsible for model safety assessments. According to informed sources, the agency is collaborating with the National Security Agency to test OpenAI's Astra and Anthropic's Mythos before public release; it has previously assessed DeepSeek V4 Pro and Zhiyuan GLM-5.3. Google confirmed that Gemini 4 Argon has participated in the voluntary testing process before the U.S. government release. The White House hopes that this adjustment will allow model testing experts to be more directly involved in policy decision-making.

The success rate of the Zhipu legal model is nearly three times higher, and the testing cost is about one-seventieth of that of its competitors

The artificial intelligence company Zhipu released a legal-specific model GLM-Legal, which is further trained based on GLM-5.3-Flash. In the Harvey LAB evaluation covering 24 categories of legal services, the task pass rate increased from 6.7% to 19.2%, nearly tripling the original version, surpassing models like Kimi K3 and Claude Fable 5, and ranking seventh on the Vals AI leaderboard.When reviewing software service contracts, GLM-Legal suggested shortening the termination notice period from 60 days to 30 days and required service providers to offer up to 90 days of handover support. In another software project dispute involving 40 documents, it found that the company reported to the client that the project was 60% complete, while internal records indicated only about 41%. It also identified emails from the CEO requesting to conceal risks and continue charging, and analyzed potential legal liabilities in conjunction with contract terms.According to independent evaluations by Vals AI, the cost for GLM-Legal to complete a test is $0.15, while the closely performing Gemini 4 Argon costs $10.55, a cost difference of about 70 times. GLM-Legal took an average of 72 minutes, while the latter took 44 minutes. Zhipu stated that the model was trained specifically on legal data and conducted reinforcement learning in tens of thousands of simulated legal environments. Currently, GLM-Legal requires an API trial application.

first_img Anthropic: Small models may self-replicate on IoT devices

On October 12, 2026, William Zhou and Daniel Freeman, frontier red team researchers at the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, published a study. The article states that small models may have the ability to self-replicate on commercial IoT devices such as smart ovens and generic Android TV boxes within months. These replicas do not have a single shutdown point, and the doubling time may be measured in days, potentially adapting to unfamiliar devices on their own.Evaluation shows that a 9B model completed inference on 8 out of 9 hardware types. Models of 30B and below have been able to complete many single steps of replication, but errors occur when combined end-to-end; in simplified evaluations, GLM-5.2 and stronger models can achieve end-to-end replication. The team also distributed Gemma4-26B-A4B across 15 generic Android TV boxes, each costing about $55, operating at a speed of approximately 0.39 tokens/second, with each box holding two layers of the model.End-to-end testing was conducted on 8 GCP nodes behind a firewall, propagating through an unauthorized ADB port and setting up Llama 3.1-8B inference. Among the tested open-source models, only GLM-5.2 completed replication fully, transmitting to all 8 nodes in 4 out of 5 trials. The article divides autonomous replication and adaptation into four steps: discovering the target, obtaining execution, establishing inference, and continuing propagation from the new host, stating that there are currently no complete uncontrolled replicas.
