We got admin access to Baseten's production GitHub in 25 minutes

Strix autonomous hacking agent extracted a working GitHub token with repo admin rights from Baseten's public Harbor image; Baseten rotated it next day.

Strix, an autonomous hacking agent, scanned *.baseten.co without credentials and found a public Harbor container registry project anonymously exposing the baseten/baseten-app image. A GitHub personal access token for basetenbot, embedded in Docker build history since March 2023, still worked in July 2026 and granted admin/push rights to basetenlabs/baseten, flux-cd, and homebrew-tap plus read/write on private customer repos. Baseten, valued at $13 billion, confirmed the issue as critical and rotated the token within a day.

[AINews] DeepSeek v4.1-Flash: 763B-P8B-D16B novel causal Encoder–Decoder architecture with vision marks the Return of the Whale

DeepSeek released V4.1-Flash, an open-weight 763B-parameter model with a novel causal encoder-decoder architecture, 1M context, vision input, and MIT license.

DeepSeek launched V4.1-Flash, an open-weight MIT-licensed model using a novel causal encoder-decoder architecture with 763B total parameters and asymmetric active parameters: 8B for prefill and 16B for decode. It supports 1M-token context and text+image input, priced at $0.30 per 1M input and $1.20 per 1M output tokens with a 50% off-peak discount. Artificial Analysis scored it 40 on its Intelligence Index, above DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813, and Vals ranked it the #1 open-weight model ahead of Kimi K3. Baseten shipped day-0 support and Ollama began rolling it out to paid subscribers.

[AINews] Muse Spark 1.3 matches GPT-5.6-Sol, confirming Meta Superintelligence as the newest Frontier Lab, >90% discount for training

Meta's Muse Spark 1.3 reportedly ranks as the world's #3 model, matching frontier models from OpenAI and Anthropic with planned open weights.

The Latent Space AI News roundup leads with Muse Spark 1.3, promised in Zuckerberg's letter, which ranks #3 worldwide per AAII, is slated for open weights, and uses a pricing model over 90% cheaper when users opt in to training. The issue also covers the rumored Gemini 3.8 Flash launch and analysis arguing OpenAI's rumored looped-transformer 'Astra' architecture is a modest tweak rather than a breakthrough. Additional coverage includes ByteDance Seed's HarnessDev harness-evaluation benchmark, a retrieval-invoked actual-use evaluation method, Stanford's revamped agent engineering curricula, and Photon 2.1 adding TTS models and NVIDIA B200 support.

[AINews] NVIDIA buys HuggingFace for $13B, as OpenAI publishes their HF incident retro

Z.ai released open-weight GLM-5.3-Flash (320B/18B active, 1M context, MIT) while Nvidia confirmed buying Hugging Face for $13B.

Z.ai formally launched GLM-5.3-Flash, the model previously previewed as Ox Alpha: 320B total parameters with 18B active, a 1M-token context window, natively multimodal, MIT-licensed, and claimed on par with Claude Opus 4.8 on coding. Artificial Analysis scored it 57 on its Intelligence Index at $0.09 per task, roughly 7.5x cheaper than GLM-5.3, and it scored 84.3% on Terminal-Bench 2.1. Nvidia's $13B acquisition of Hugging Face (~80x its $150M ARR) was confirmed, nearly double its initial $7B January offer. The roundup also notes Qwen shipping an impressive Flash model on Chinese chips as part of a broader open-model narrative.

[AINews] OpenAI to reach AGI bar by end-2026

OpenAI chief scientist Jakub Pachocki says unreleased Astra model meets the 'Automated AI Research Intern' goal; Altman expects internal AGI declaration by December 2026.

OpenAI chief scientist Jakub Pachocki says the unreleased Astra model fulfills the September 2026 'Automated AI Research Intern' target. Sam Altman told TIME he expects OpenAI to declare AGI achieved internally by December 2026. The roundup also covers Zhipu's GLM-5.3-Flash (320B total parameters, 18B active, 1M context), Google's Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash video model topping the Text-to-Video Arena, and the $399 open-source Microduck biped robot from Pollen Robotics and Hugging Face.

Show HN: Nari Qwen3-TTS and Qwen3-ASR – High accuracy, low latency and cost

Nari Labs claims top Coval voice AI benchmark rankings with low-latency, low-cost Qwen3-ASR and Qwen3-TTS inference endpoints.

Nari Labs says its Qwen3-ASR Fast endpoint ranks #1 in Coval's time-to-final-segment latency (p50 44 ms) with 3.6% WER at $0.12/hour, behind only AssemblyAI Universal 3.5 Pro on accuracy. Its Qwen3-TTS Fast ranks #2 in time-to-first-audio (p50 63 ms) and #1 in WER at 3.8%, priced at $10 per 1M characters. The company reports beating the official Qwen3 TTS Flash Realtime endpoint (8.8% WER, 692 ms median TTFA) and Baseten's dedicated endpoint (6.0% WER, 101 ms). Public beta APIs are moving to paid general availability with $20 in credits for existing accounts.

[AINews] OpenAI reports Navier-Stokes singularity find in 88 hours using Astra-next, roughly 10,000 agents and 130B tokens (>$40M), a contender for second ever Millennium Prize awarded

OpenAI-linked accounts claim roughly 10,000 AI agents produced a Navier-Stokes singularity result in 88 hours, pending mathematical verification.

OpenAI-affiliated accounts claim a system of roughly 10,000 agents, trained over about a year with multi-agent reinforcement learning, produced a finite-time singularity result related to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Problem. The claimed 88-hour runtime and 130B-token cost circulate only via social posts, and no preprint, theorem statement, or proof artifact is available. Acceptance by the mathematics community is unresolved, so the claim's epistemic status remains unknown. The roundup also notes Cognition's $48B and Mistral's $24B fundraises, GPT Image 2.5, and Meta's Muse agent relaunch.

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.
