Discovery Foundation Models: Toward Open-Ended Discovery Intelligence

Paper defines Discovery Foundation Models with seven coupled capabilities for open-ended discovery, demonstrated via Zetema and GALILEO systems.

The paper formulates Discovery Foundation Models (DFMs) as general-purpose model systems for open-ended discovery, supporting seven coupled capabilities spanning problem discovery, formulation, representation construction, hypothesis formation, intervention, evidence-grounded revision, and continual improvement. It instantiates the framework with Zetema, which couples explicit research-state dynamics, verification and experimental gating, and cross-task Discovery Skill evolution. The framework is grounded with GALILEO, a real therapeutic-discovery system combining dry-lab reasoning with robotic wet-lab experimentation in a closed physical discovery loop; code is released on GitHub.

How hackers used Claude for missiles, drone swarms, and surveillance, while Chinese labs mined it for training data

Anthropic's threat report details eight months of Claude misuse: AI-assisted espionage against 20+ organizations, self-rewriting malware, and Chinese labs distilling Claude via fraudulent accounts.

Anthropic's threat intelligence report covering December 2025 through August 2026 documents Claude misuse across seven categories including cyber operations, surveillance, fraud, and unauthorized model distillation. A Russian-speaking espionage actor tracked as GTG-20006 used AI agents to rewrite and recompile malware evading antivirus detection, targeting more than 20 organizations in Ukraine and Europe and stealing a drone vision system SDK. Alibaba's Qwen lab ran the largest distillation campaign, with over 151 million exchanges between May and July 2026 peaking near 3 million per day to train Qwen 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7. DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, Xiaomi, and Zhipu also relayed customer or replayed traffic to Claude, including PLA-linked users analyzing CCTV footage and users with credentials tied to the Russian Ministry of Defense.

HypoEvolve: Genetic Algorithms Enable Multi-Agent LLMs to Discover Scientific Hypotheses

HypoEvolve couples a generational genetic algorithm with specialized LLM agents to generate drug-repurposing hypotheses, beating six baselines on DepMap selectivity (0.171 vs 0.115).

HypoEvolve coordinates specialized LLM agents through a generational genetic algorithm in which scientific judgments and new proposals reshape a hypothesis population. Evaluation centers on drug repurposing, linking mechanistic explanations to target-level biological claims assessed via external measures adapted from DepMap and Open Targets. Across 34 cancer types, HypoEvolve scores highest against six baselines on both measures, with DepMap selectivity of 0.171 versus 0.115 for the strongest baseline, and gains generalize to held-out cancer types.

Anthropic Says Seven China-Based AI Labs Ran Industrial-Scale Claude Distillation Attacks

Anthropic disrupted industrial-scale unauthorized Claude distillation by seven China-based AI labs, including Alibaba, DeepSeek, Moonshot, and Z.ai.

Anthropic identified and disrupted six illicit distillation campaigns since February 2026 run by seven China-based labs: Alibaba, Moonshot, DeepSeek, Z.ai (Zhipu), MiniMax, Xiaomi, and SenseTime. The largest, GTG-16005, involved 151 million exchanges targeting Claude Opus 4.6/4.7 chain-of-thought transcripts, peaking at roughly 3 million exchanges per day from more than 3,500 fraudulent accounts. Labs used proxy/relay services with fictitious identities, fake or stolen credit cards, harvested API keys, and purchased conversation transcripts from third-party resellers. Anthropic is countering by banning reseller accounts, summarizing internal reasoning before responding, and introducing preserved thinking in Fable 5.1, which encrypts reasoning and prevents context edits before it.

GLM-5.3: How Chinese labs keep stride with the frontier

Z.ai released GLM-5.3, a ~750B-parameter model with frontier agentic coding scores, with open weights on Hugging Face planned in two weeks.

Z.ai announced GLM-5.3, initially available only in its coding plan, with API access and open Hugging Face weights promised within two weeks. The roughly 750B-parameter model, one-third the size of Moonshot AI's Kimi K3, surpasses Kimi K3 on many benchmarks and beats Claude Fable 5 or GPT-5.6-Sol on some, placing it at the frontier of agentic coding benchmarks. GLM-5.3 reuses the GLM-5.2 base model with substantially extended post-training based on more RL environments, more diverse tasks and more compute. The post also analyzes how Chinese labs keep pace with the frontier, arguing release speed matters more than distillation.

Y Combinator’s Garry Tan wants U.S. open-weight AI labs to ‘distill’ frontier models, too

Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan urges US open-weight labs to distill frontier models and regulators to stay out, countering Anthropic's crackdown calls.

Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan told CNBC he would "do nothing" about Chinese labs distilling frontier models and floated an "American distillation regime" letting US open-weight labs do the same to American frontier labs. Anthropic this week released its second report alleging Chinese labs conduct "illicit distillation attacks" using hidden identities, fraud, and stolen credentials, and CEO Dario Amodei has called for US regulators to crack down. Tan argued closed labs cannot dictate what customers do with API outputs, noting frontier labs trained on copyrighted material without permission, and called a single monolithic proprietary provider the true AI doomer scenario.

Evidence-Grounded Agentic Formulation Development in an Autonomous Laboratory

Andromeda 2, an agentic laboratory system, reaches a 50% high-performance hit rate for paclitaxel SEDDS formulations versus 17% for its predecessor and 2% for DoE.

Andromeda 2 is an agentic system that reasons over structured in-house experimental evidence and invokes computational and experimental tools to design and execute successive formulation batches for self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS). For paclitaxel it achieved a 50% high-performance hit rate versus 17% for Andromeda 1 and 2% for a wet-lab DoE campaign, identifying 12 formulations meeting all four target product profile objectives versus 6 and 0. A selected full-TPP formulation reached approximately 19% w/w apparent paclitaxel loading, about 3.3-fold higher than a published paclitaxel S-SEDDS, and an ablation showed structured evidence access increased mean AUC by 34%.

HyQuant keeps most LLM attention states low-bit while preserving vertical-line tokens and local windows in high precision, maintaining near-lossless accuracy.

HyQuant is a hybrid-precision quantization framework for LLM attention that quantizes most attention states to low bits while keeping accuracy-critical vertical-line tokens and local-window states in full precision, selected via lightweight attention-pattern signals. In the prefill stage it uses a hybrid-precision attention operator, and in the decode stage it applies the same principle to KV-cache compression with fused dequantization and attention computation. Across diverse tasks, models, and datasets it maintains nearly lossless accuracy; code is available on GitHub.
