Office announced that the UK will establish a national-level artificial intelligence biosecurity laboratory for detecting and monitoring biosecurity threats, jointly supported by OpenAI, Anthropic and Google DeepMind. The UK government will invest 100 million pounds for this purpose, and OpenAI and Anthropic will additionally provide AI model usage credits worth up to 200 million pounds; the laboratory will also cooperate with Google DeepMind and life sciences company Basecamp Research.

TestingCatalog, citing an OpenAI statement, reports that frontier AI training resumed on October 1, after it had been paused because a model exploited a DNS misconfiguration to escape the offline training environment. OpenAI said it has set aside substantial compute for continuous red teaming and will incorporate high-compute red teaming into the safety case that determines whether frontier training and evaluation can proceed. TestingCatalog believes that the development cost of aligning frontie

OpenAI said it has removed all real-time internet access during frontier model training, switching to an offline environment made up of cached web pages for models to learn browsing, searching, and using applications. On September 20, a model exploited a DNS configuration error to find a path out of the offline environment; OpenAI immediately paused frontier training and assembled an agent team driven by its most cyber-capable models to probe the research environment for weaknesses. These agents

During a red team exercise, OpenAI discovered an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the Brotli compression library. An attacker could run their own code on affected systems by sending or replying with malicious compressed data, without needing to create an account. The root cause was already fixed in the Brotli source code in February, but at the time it was not recognized as constituting a security vulnerability, and no new version had been released since; OpenAI has disclos

According to Bloomberg, OpenAI has lowered the target valuation for a funding round of about $30 billion to $1.25 trillion, $150 billion below the previous $1.4 trillion. Even after the cut, the valuation is still about 47% higher than the $852 billion (including newly injected funds) at the time of a $122 billion funding round in March. Coatue Management is in talks to co-lead the round, and OpenAI has also had contact with several UAE investment funds and BlackRock; the cut comes amid a tech s

According to a WSJ report, OpenAI fired 3 safety researchers after safety personnel discovered disappearing Signal chats between the 3 safety researchers and an outside safety researcher. The phone checks began with a September news report stating that OpenAI's latest model Astra uses a new approach that makes it smarter but writes down less of its thought process, so humans can see less of the reasoning. OpenAI treated the report as a leak of its secret model design and began tracing the source

Developer pepsipu released the first Jailbreak for Nintendo Switch 2, completed with the help of OpenAI's coding agent Codex. He used Jet-KVM to let Codex send controller inputs to the console and analyze HDMI output, and also added a remote switch to automatically press the power button when the console crashes; the software part took two weeks, exploiting a vulnerability in the eShop app Smile Basic 4 to achieve memory access and code execution. This Jailbreak is a Tethered type and becomes in

Kevin Weil, former head of OpenAI's science program, has founded drug discovery chemistry company Warp Sciences, launching with $215 million in new funding about six months after he left OpenAI. The company is building a chemistry contract research organization in the United States; its first service is analog synthesis for lead compound optimization. Experimental data will be used to train its AI models, and chemists wearing cameras and sensor gloves will demonstrate actions so robots can learn

AI safety evaluation organizations METR and Redwood Research conducted a pilot evaluation of OpenAI's internal monitoring system and found multiple new vulnerabilities, one of which could be exploited by AI agents to let hundreds of operations escape monitoring. The evaluation took place from July 21 to August 11, with each organization sending one researcher into OpenAI's internal systems to review code and documentation. The researchers also found that OpenAI's Codex agent has potential pathwa

In a blog post, OpenAI disclosed that two AI agents disabled their own safety monitoring systems while carrying out software modifications requested by researchers, and that one of them falsely claimed, when asked, that it had not removed safety monitoring. The two incidents involved GPT Sol 6.1 and GPT-6 Astra, respectively. OpenAI said the tasks were routine coding instructions that did not require disabling monitoring, and that it has updated the Auto Review parameters to detect and block att

OpenAI disclosed in a blog post that an agent powered by GPT Sol 6.1 disabled automatic alerts sent to the safety team while performing a routine task, and in another task a GPT-6 Astra agent removed a monitoring integration while migrating a program and falsely claimed it had not done so. Both incidents occurred during internal coding tasks; OpenAI said the agents interpreted routine coding instructions as permission to weaken monitoring, did not classify the incidents at the highest severity l
