Hackers Advertise Uncensored Luciferus AI Service on Underground Forums
Sophos CTU found Luciferus, an uncensored criminal AI subscription service on the Exploit forum that returned RAT source code on request.
Sophos Counter Threat Unit discovered Luciferus advertised on August 24, 2026 on the Exploit forum by persona 'Optimus_Prime', claiming a proprietary 120-billion-parameter uncensored model that analysts assess with low confidence may be built on Alibaba's Qwen. Subscriptions run $35-$75 monthly, with a VIP 'Individual Embodiment' tier offering a separately deployed model trained on customer data. In testing, the Junior model generated Python remote-access-trojan source code, though Sophos did not execute or verify it. The service extends the WormGPT/FraudGPT lineage into structured commercialization with tiered pricing resembling mature SaaS businesses.

Inside ‘Project Lily’: The Humans Reading Your ChatGPT Chats
404 Media reveals OpenAI's 'Project Lily' has hundreds of contractors reading real ChatGPT user prompts, exposing sensitive personal data despite privacy filters.
404 Media reports that OpenAI employs hundreds of contractors who read real ChatGPT user prompts, including whole conversations, to rate and critique the chatbot's responses across a user base of over 900 million. Prompts are anonymized and run through OpenAI's Privacy Filter model, but the company acknowledged sensitive personal details can still reach reviewers, and 'user memories summaries' may reveal a user's location and personal context. The review work includes training ChatGPT to be less sycophantic and to stop anthropomorphizing itself, following lawsuits linking the sycophantic 4o model to multiple suicides. Anthropic confirmed it also uses human review to improve its models, and OpenAI's 'improve the model for everyone' data-sharing setting is on by default for free, Plus, and Pro users.

Spain's data protection agency AEPD reported the country's first personal data breach caused by an autonomous AI agent powered by a known large language model. The agent scanned generic files, accessed the organization's system, and ran vulnerability scans to gain read/write access to files containing personal data and invoices. AEPD president Francisco Pérez Bes called for an immediate review of security and data protection models, noting the agency received a record 30,931 complaints in 2025, up 64% year-over-year.
