Skild AI Taps NVIDIA Physical AI to Teach Robots New Tasks From a Single Video

Skild AI launched its S1 robot foundation model, built on NVIDIA infrastructure, that learns long-horizon industrial tasks from a single video.

Skild AI's S1 model uses in-context learning from one video demonstration to execute unfamiliar multistep tasks lasting up to 10 minutes without weight updates or task-specific post-training. In tests on new tasks it achieved about 66% per-step success versus 9% for a comparable AI system, and one video demonstration was estimated to match roughly 380 hands-on training examples. The company reached a $100 million annual revenue run rate with more than 60 deployment partnerships, and with NVIDIA and Foxconn deploys the Skild Brain on dual-arm manipulators assembling NVIDIA Blackwell systems. Training and validation rely on NVIDIA Isaac Lab, Isaac Sim, Omniverse, Cosmos and the Newton physics engine.

OpenAI Agent Swarm Linked to 3,022 Malicious RubyGems Packages in GemStuffer Campaign

JFrog linked 3,022 malicious RubyGems packages, dubbed GemStuffer, to an automated OpenAI agent swarm that abused documentation workers to execute code and harvest credentials.

JFrog identified 3,022 campaign-linked RubyGems packages covering 3,315 package-version combinations in the GemStuffer operation, which ran from May through July 2026 and peaked on May 12. Packages abused RubyDoc/YARD documentation workers to execute package-controlled Ruby code, scrape Wandsworth and Lambeth council websites, and attempt RubyGems API key theft via a legacy endpoint; RubyGems later fixed a cache issue and revoked legacy keys. Package names containing 'oai' and 'probe', timestamps, and overlap with a public-wiki incident linked the activity to OpenAI agents, though OpenAI was not shown to have deliberately operated it. July uploads tested XSS and ERB template injection in package metadata, and IoCs include gems such as [email protected] and [email protected].

12 Best CWPP Solutions Compared (2026): Features & Pricing

Editorial comparison ranks twelve CWPP vendors, with Sysdig leading K8s runtime depth, Prisma Cloud workload breadth, and Wiz agentless speed.

A 2026 buyer's guide compares twelve cloud workload protection platforms across features and pricing models. Sysdig is rated deepest for container/Kubernetes runtime via its Falco lineage, Prisma Cloud broadest across hosts, containers, and serverless, Aqua strongest on cloud-native lifecycle, and Wiz/CrowdStrike lead agentless speed and platform correlation. Category notes flag Illumio as microsegmentation and Fidelis as NDR/XDR rather than classic CWPP.

Vidu S2: Real-Time Interactive, Editable, and Spatial Video Generation

Vidu S2 delivers real-time 720p interactive avatar generation plus real-time video editing with style, clothing, character, and background replacement.

Vidu S2 comprises Vidu S2-Avatar, a real-time interactive digital-character model, and Vidu S2-Editing, a real-time video editing model. S2-Avatar supports real-time 720p generation, dynamic references updatable at any moment, and stronger instruction following such as dancing, while S2-Editing performs real-time style rendering, clothing replacement, character replacement, and background replacement. The work also explores real-time spatial video generation for both models, reports outperforming all baselines, and offers a playable online demo at vidu.com.

Feyospace-v1: How the Cyber Mercury Seven Trained Frontier Cyber Models

A seven-person independent team trained open-weight agentic cyber models via a data-centric post-training framework, ranking 10th on CyberGym and first at comparable scale.

The paper presents Feyospace-v1, a data-centric post-training framework combining five systems: Choulea (hidden reasoning analysis), SkyReal (teacher-sampling cost reduction), Hongzwang (bypassing teacher API restrictions), PSBreakup (restoring capabilities weakened by model merging), and Kreator (converting expert interventions into trainable reasoning). The data engine builds resettable coding, vulnerability, CTF, kernel-history, full-exploit, firmware, and device-backed environments, retaining only execution-verified and evidence-audited trajectories, yielding 164,269 trajectories for long-context supervised fine-tuning. Three checkpoints improve over their starting models by an average of 23.76% on the full CyberGym suite and 10.49% across pooled CTF suites. As of September 1, 2026, Feyospace-s1 achieves a 63.24% verified success rate, ranks 10th on the official CyberGym leaderboard, and all three checkpoints rank 1st among models at comparable parameter scales.

[AINews] Hot Chips: OpenAI’s Jalapeño, Cerebras CS-5, Groq 3 LPX, Apple M6

OpenAI unveiled Jalapeno custom inference chip claiming 1.5-1.9x better perf-per-watt than NVIDIA GB200/GB300, deploying in-house by year-end.

At the 37th Hot Chips conference, OpenAI published first benchmark details for its custom Jalapeno inference chip, claiming 1.5-1.9x more work per watt, 1.7-3.6x lower end-to-end latency, and 2.1-4.1x higher interactive-workload performance versus NVIDIA GB200/GB300, with the 700W-rated part staying at or below 550W in tests. Deployment into OpenAI's own infrastructure begins by year-end, with Gen 2 deep in development and Gen 3 underway. OpenAI also said GPT-Astra and Codex helped write low-level kernels, reportedly 1.5-1.8x faster than human-expert code for selected attention and MoE blocks. Cerebras CS-5, Groq 3 LPX and Apple M6 were also featured at the conference.
