NVIDIA Details BioNeMo Inference Runtime (BioIR): 2.90x Higher Boltz-2 Folding Throughput and 58.5K Residues per GPU-Hour on 8xH100
NVIDIA released BioNeMo Inference Runtime (BioIR), an open-source PyTorch-compatible library delivering 2.90x higher Boltz-2 protein-folding throughput on 8xH100 GPUs.
NVIDIA detailed BioIR, a Python library that accelerates Boltz-2, OpenFold2, and OpenFold3 structure-prediction inference on NVIDIA GPUs while preserving standard PyTorch workflows. On a matched benchmark of 1,000 human dimers on 8xH100 80GB GPUs, BioIR delivered 58.5K folded residues per GPU-hour versus 20.2K for a torch.compile baseline, a 2.90x throughput gain. BioIR already powered the AlphaFold Database expansion, generating about 31 million candidate complexes across 4,777 proteomes, with 1.81 million released as high-confidence predictions. Extrapolated to 1 million targets, estimated folding energy drops from 35 MWh to 11 MWh at 8-GPU TDP equivalents.

August 2026 CVE Landscape
Insikt Group catalogs 73 high-impact August 2026 CVEs (43 Very Critical), including PaperCut, Zimbra, and Metabase flaws actively exploited or weaponized.
Recorded Future's Insikt Group identified 73 high-impact vulnerabilities in August 2026, 43 rated Very Critical, spanning 45 vendors with Microsoft accounting for roughly 11%. 31 vulnerabilities surfaced via CISA's KEV catalog, with others validated via open sources, vendor telemetry, and honeypot data. New Nuclei detection templates were released for CVE-2025-62593 (Ray), CVE-2026-72898 (Metabase), and CVE-2026-9198 (IBM Langflow). The report also highlights two AI-assisted operations: UAT-10147 exploited Zimbra, AjaxPro, Nacos, and Telerik servers before using DeepAudit and PentestGPT post-compromise, while a separate Chinese-speaking actor weaponized Hermes Agent and DeepSeek in a failed attempt.

Building AI to accelerate science and improve lives
Google highlights AI-for-science advances: AlphaGenome Atlas mapping 9 billion genetic variants, WeatherNext 3 weather model, and global health AI tools.
Google detailed AI advances across science and health, including AlphaGenome Atlas, which mapped all 9 billion possible single-letter genetic changes in the human genome and was made openly available. WeatherNext 3 delivers 50% more accurate precipitation forecasts a day or more ahead and is already in products. AlphaFold is used by 4 million researchers in 190 countries, TB chest X-ray screening has processed 25,000+ scans across six nations, and the diabetic retinopathy model has supported 1.15 million screenings. Google also released its AI & Economy ATLAS global usage insights.
