🛡️ Google Detects First AI-Generated Zero-Day Exploit

  • Google has identified the first zero-day exploit it believes was created with AI assistance — a Python script designed to bypass two-factor authentication on an open-source admin tool.

  • The script’s clean Pythonic style, excessive docstrings, and a hallucinated CVSS score revealed LLM involvement, even though Google does not believe Gemini was the specific model used.

  • The report also highlights increased use of AI by Chinese and North Korean state actors, including persona-driven jailbreaks and repetitive prompting to validate proof-of-concept exploits.

🤖 Thinking Machines Lab Unveils Real-Time AI Interaction Models

  • Thinking Machines Lab (TML) has launched a research preview of new “interaction models,” a new class of AI designed for seamless, live collaboration across voice, video, and text.

  • The system processes inputs in 200ms streaming chunks, enabling users to talk, show things, interrupt, and steer the AI in real time without turn-taking pauses, while a background model handles slower reasoning and tool use.

  • CEO Mira Murati emphasized that “the way we work with AI matters as much as how smart it is.”
