Open-weight AI caught the frontier on capability. On safety, it didn’t

Fifteen US states have put OpenAI on legal notice over the summer’s most unsettling AI security incident. They wrote to chief executive Sam Altman.

A worm tore through npm by making the malware look perfectly legitimate

A self-spreading worm tore through npm on Tuesday. It poisoned hundreds of packages that huge swathes of the software world quietly rely on. Researchers named it ChainDrop.
