    Axiom's multi-agent system formalizes the classification theorem of finite simple groups in 24 days

    The Axiom team used the multi-agent system AxiomProver to formalize the approximately 15,000-page proof of the classification theorem of finite simple groups (CFSG) into Lean code within 24 days, producing a 43.1-million-line codebase. During the process, the AI recorded hundreds of anomalies, 34 of which were major logical deviations, including a key closure assertion in John Walter's 1986 paper that does not hold, for which the AI provided the counterexample PSL₂(49). The team then contacted group theorists Richard Lyons and Ronald Solomon, and AxiomProver proved a new theorem, Preservation of simple tops, to fill the gap.

    PSI claims its AI system has cracked 5 open quantum problems

    Physical Superintelligence (PSI), founded less than two months ago, claims that its self-developed AI research system Emmy has achieved results on 5 open problems in quantum information theory, with the paper, Lean formal proofs, and verification code published on GitHub for review. These 5 problems come from the open quantum problems catalog established by German physicist Reinhard Werner in 1999, spanning five directions: entanglement purification, quantum field theory, high-dimensional quantum communication, quantum channel capacity, and quantum causality, among which OQP 2, OQP 12, and OQP 27 were included as early as the beginning of this century. Emmy decomposes difficult problems into verifiable mathematical sub-hypotheses, then hands them to the Lean formal proof assistant, symbolic computation engines, and high-precision verification code for screening; a result is only deemed established once compilation passes. PSI emerged in September this year and has completed a $58 million seed round led by Breakthrough Energy Ventures.

    CrowdStrike says VAPOR PANDA attacked more than 200 organizations using the DeepSeek-driven ARTEX framework

    CrowdStrike's report states that the China-linked group VAPOR PANDA used an AI-driven intrusion framework called ARTEX, built primarily on the DeepSeek large language model with another commercial model as a secondary component, to target more than 200 organizations in at least 14 countries over 11 days starting October 17, 2026, and confirmed post-compromise activity at 9 of them. ARTEX consists of a main agent and planning and execution sub-agents that share a fact and goal graph; in a single intrusion the planning agent consumed about 1.4 billion input tokens, and operators issued commands in Chinese and intervened at key junctures. CrowdStrike also says the group deployed the BLOODALCHEMY backdoor at some targets, and predicts that China-linked adversaries will increasingly adopt such agent frameworks over the next 12 months.

    Michael Pfaffenberger of Pydantic used 5 small Pydantic AI applications and 8 models to conduct 5,276 scored runs, comparing code mode with direct tool calling. On long tasks, code mode reduced average cost by 58%, latency by 51%, and increased success rate by 16 percentage points; however, for short tasks with 5 items, 3 out of 5 tasks were instead 21% to 38% more expensive. The author argues that models are better at writing loops than at acting as the loop, and the gap widens as tasks get longer.
