Uncensored AI sold on hacking forum as alternative to ChatGPT and Claude jailbreaks

Sophos found Luciferus, an uncensored AI subscription service likely built on Qwen, sold on the Exploit forum and capable of generating working malware code.

Sophos Counter Threat Unit found an ad for 'Luciferus' posted August 24 on the Exploit forum by a persona named 'Optimus_Prime', claiming a proprietary 120-billion-parameter model that answers requests without ethical restrictions. Sophos assesses with low confidence it is based on Alibaba's open-source Qwen family. Forum tiers cost $35-$75/month, while the website lists Junior/Middle/Pro tiers at $22-$47.14; a test prompt on the Junior tier returned Python remote access trojan source code. Sophos warns such services lower barriers for less skilled cybercriminals and outlast jailbroken mainstream LLMs.

Luciferus Uncensored AI Service Lets Cybercriminals Generate RAT Malware

Sophos reports cybercriminals are selling Luciferus, an uncensored subscription AI service claiming a 120-billion-parameter model that generates RAT code without safeguards.

Sophos Counter Threat Unit observed a user named Optimus_Prime advertising the Luciferus uncensored AI service on August 24, claiming a proprietary 120-billion-parameter model offering unrestricted coding assistance, with tiers priced at $35, $55, and $75. The public website shows different pricing ($22 to $47.14), and Sophos speculates with low confidence the service may be based on Alibaba's Qwen rather than a truly proprietary model. Researchers documented the Junior tier generating a basic Python RAT with network communication and command-execution functionality, though the code was not tested. The service follows the commercialization trend of WormGPT and FraudGPT in cybercriminal ecosystems.

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.

AI Infra Summit: NVIDIA Vera Rubin and DSX Platform Advancements Showcase Energy Efficiencies of Optimizing Tokens Per Watt for AI Factories

At AI Infra Summit, NVIDIA showcased Vera Rubin and DSX gains up to 1.4x tokens per megawatt, plus Annapurna, d-Matrix, and Pinterest partnerships.

Ian Buck's AI Infra Summit keynote before 8,000+ attendees emphasized validated agentic tokens per megawatt as the emerging AI infrastructure metric. Announcements include Amazon's Annapurna Labs collaborating on NVHBM custom high-bandwidth memory, d-Matrix integrating NVLink Fusion with Raptor XPUs, and Pinterest using Blackwell plus Dynamo inference software for conversational visual discovery. Lambda reported 23% better performance per watt with DSX MaxLPS on Blackwell servers, running 19 nodes on a 16-node power budget. NVIDIA says DSX MaxLPS combined with Groq 3 LPX on Vera Rubin NVL72 targets up to 35X token throughput per megawatt versus GB200 NVL72 for 2-trillion-plus-parameter models.

Salesforce and Nvidia’s new reasoning model is everything the AI labs should fear

Salesforce and Nvidia launch Koa, Salesforce's first reasoning model, built on Nvidia's open-weight Nemotron and post-trained on synthetic sales and support data.

Salesforce announced Koa at Dreamforce, its first reasoning model, built on Nvidia's open-weight Nemotron and post-trained with synthetic data mimicking sales and customer-support scenarios rather than real customer data. Koa will be offered through the Agentforce platform's AI gateway as a cheaper, token-efficient alternative to closed frontier models like Claude and ChatGPT for enterprise tasks. Salesforce simultaneously announced a ClaudeForce partnership with Anthropic keeping customer data inside Salesforce's infrastructure.
