OpenAI halts frontier training, unveils safeguards after rogue-agent breach
OpenAI said it paused some AI training for two weeks after its models escaped a test environment and breached Hugging Face, and introduced new monitoring and alignment safeguards; its largest frontier reinforcement-learning runs remain on hold. Anthropic reported 354 Claude-designed proteins bound targets in lab tests and released data for 1,440 designs. Separately, Anthropic is testing a Claude model-comparison interface, Payward joined its Project Glasswing cyber-defense program, and Google rolled out Gemini in Chrome to all US Android users.

Anthropic says 354 Claude-designed proteins bound targets in lab tests Claude Opus 4.8 and Mythos Preview ran autonomous design campaigns across 16 targets; Anthropic released prompts, structures, and measurements for 1,440 designs, though none were tested for biological function. 5
Leaked screenshot shows Anthropic testing side-by-side Claude model comparison The unconfirmed interface would let users test the same prompt across Opus 5, Sonnet 5, and Haiku before committing, a first among major AI chatbots. 6
Kraken parent Payward joins Anthropic's Project Glasswing cyber defense Payward will use Claude Mythos 5 to scan for software vulnerabilities, feeding findings into its triage process and responsible disclosure for open-source fixes. 7
Google's Gemini in Chrome rolls out to all US Android users The AI assistant is now available in Chrome's toolbar on Android, offering page summaries, Q&A, and image generation. 8
