Texas Police Used AI to Write Report About Using Flock to Search for Woman Who Had Abortion

Johnson County, Texas deputies used Axon's Draft One AI to write a report about searching 80,000+ Flock cameras for a woman who self-administered an abortion.

Documents show the Johnson County Sheriff's Office used Flock's nationwide camera network and Axon's Draft One, which drafts police reports from body camera audio, in its investigation of a woman's self-administered abortion. The AI-generated report summarized deputies' discussion of legal implications, noting Texas law provided no applicable criminal charges. Flock CEO Garrett Langley has repeatedly claimed the search was a family welfare check, but earlier police reports indicate it was initiated at the behest of the woman's abusive partner.

Instagram's head says engagement falls by half without the algorithm

Instagram head Adam Mosseri says disabling ranked feeds cuts engagement up to 50%, amid Australian legislation that would force platforms to offer algorithm opt-outs.

Meta's Adam Mosseri told an Australian press briefing that users switching to chronological feeds see engagement fall by as much as 50% and satisfaction drop sharply, arguing ranked feeds deliver a better experience. Australia's draft Digital Duty of Care bill would require platforms to prompt users to disable algorithmic ranking. The EU's Digital Services Act Article 38 has required very large platforms to offer a non-profiling feed option since 2023, with modest adoption. Meta also faces a social media harms trial in which Instagram's addictive design is at issue.

OpenAI's millennium proof dispute raises the question of whether researchers can trust AI labs

Mathematician Tristan Buckmaster accused OpenAI of pressuring him and possibly training on his drafts amid OpenAI's race to claim a Navier-Stokes millennium proof.

OpenAI published a blog post and Sam Altman defended the team behind its AI-generated proof of the Navier-Stokes Millennium Problem after mathematician Tristan Buckmaster accused the company of academic misconduct. Buckmaster and co-author Levent Alpöge, who works at Anthropic, allege OpenAI pressured Buckmaster, sidelined Alpöge, and may have trained on drafts they entered into OpenAI's systems. OpenAI acknowledges it cannot rule out that de-identified data from their product usage helped improve its models. Mathematician Terence Tao warned the episode could discourage researchers from sharing work, reversing centuries of open science.

OpenAI researcher allegedly pressured mathematician to drop Anthropic co-author from math breakthrough paper

OpenAI researcher Sébastien Bubeck allegedly pressured mathematician Tristan Buckmaster to drop his Anthropic co-author from an AI-assisted Navier-Stokes breakthrough paper.

Mathematician Tristan Buckmaster says OpenAI, after learning of his and Levent Alpöge's AI-assisted progress on the Navier-Stokes equations, pressed him to drop his Anthropic-employed co-author and dictated how any results would be announced. He says Sébastien Bubeck claimed an internal OpenAI model had produced a roughly 100-page proof for Navier-Stokes with forcing and allegedly told him 'Why would you ruin your career?' when he threatened to go public. Buckmaster published a public statement detailing the exchanges; OpenAI has not yet responded. The pair had worked with models including Claude and OpenAI Codex running GPT-5.6 Sol on the Clay Millennium Problem, which carries a $1 million prize.

1.1.1.1 now supports post-quantum DNSSEC, all 2,420 bytes of it

Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 resolver now validates post-quantum DNSSEC signatures using ML-DSA-44, a 2,420-byte NIST algorithm, preparing DNS for post-quantum migration by 2029.

Cloudflare enabled 1.1.1.1 to validate DNSSEC signatures using ML-DSA-44 (algorithm 18), a NIST-standardized post-quantum signature with 1,312-byte public keys and 2,420-byte signatures, roughly 38x larger than ECDSA P-256. The large signatures exceed common DNS-over-UDP limits, forcing fallback to TCP and creating downgrade risks while conventional algorithms must be published alongside. Cloudflare cites the risk of a quantum computer breaking RSA/ECDSA signatures by 2030 and plans full post-quantum security by 2029.

The Rise of the Forward Deployed Engineer — and How To Do the Job Right

Palantir veteran Vinoo Ganesh traces the forward deployed engineer role and shares practices for building effective FDE teams.

Kepler CEO and former Palantir forward deployed engineer Vinoo Ganesh argues that labs, startups, and PE firms hire FDEs without a shared definition of the role. He recounts Palantir's Project Frontline rotation, which trained about 250 software engineers as FDEs, many now leading forward deployed teams at OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and Anduril. A 2013 failure of the Phoenix transaction store at a bank, where real-world data gaps caused roughly 2.3 million keyspaces and an out-of-memory crash, illustrates why FDEs must own the gap between design and production reality. At Kepler he places the FDE function inside product rather than sales.

Germany moves to give spy agencies hacking and sabotage powers

Germany's cabinet approved a 732-page bill granting BND and BfV intelligence agencies new hacking, sabotage, and disinformation powers pending parliamentary approval.

Germany's cabinet approved draft legislation that would give the foreign intelligence service BND and domestic agency BfV active operational powers, including hacking foreign systems, sabotaging supply chains with faulty components, disabling servers of hostile state-sponsored hackers, and feeding false information to extremists inside Germany. The 732-page bill, the largest overhaul of postwar German spy laws, requires telecom carriers and digital providers to assist the agencies, bars measures endangering life, and imposes new statutory controls on how agencies use AI analysis, including judge-supervised spot checks of machine-generated outputs. The reforms stem from a Federal Constitutional Court ruling on surveillance proportionality and are expected to pass parliament, with the government aiming for the law to take effect next year; civil liberties groups plan to challenge it.

This Key Will Self-Destruct: An Open Standard for Revocable API Keys

SecurityWeek opinion piece proposes ORKS, an open standard adding issuer prefixes, discovery files, and unauthenticated revocation endpoints to make leaked API keys quickly revocable.

The article argues that plain API keys leak frequently yet lack any standardized revocation mechanism, unlike OAuth tokens which gained RFC 7009 revocation in 2013, and that GitHub's Secret Scanning Partner Program solves this only in a proprietary, invite-only way. The author proposes ORKS (Open Revocable Key Standard), with a draft spec on GitHub, built on four parts: keys embedding their issuer domain in a fixed prefix format, a discoverable /.well-known/api-key-config JSON file, unauthenticated revocation by possession of the full key, and declared constraints such as IP allowlists, expiry, scopes, and mTLS. An optional quarantine mode inspired by Toyota's andon cord restricts a reported key to read-only and throttled operation for a default 24-hour window before automatic revocation. The piece frames AI agents as making this urgent, since agents hold many credentials, can exfiltrate them via prompt injection, and can leak secrets into logs at machine speed.

Who gets to define the rules for AI?

Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez attacks big-lab antitrust exemption proposals as cartel behavior that lets incumbents write AI safety rules.

Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez argues that proposals from large AI labs—particularly Anthropic's roadmap requesting antitrust exemptions for safety coordination—amount to a cartel letting incumbents define rules for everyone else. He draws parallels to the 1975 SEC NRSRO credit-rating designations and the EU's 1985 Motor Vehicle Block Exemption, where safety justifications produced incumbent-protecting market structures. Gomez supports independent review of highly capable AI systems but disputes who writes the standards, who conducts review, and who participates. He also warns AI cyber offense is getting cheaper faster than defenses are improving.
