Mistral says the model, built for coding, agent workflows, and multimodal understanding, has 52 billion active parameters. In its own benchmarks, it performed strongly in cybersecurity and visual localization. The weights have not yet been released, and training is ongoing.
Mistral released an API preview of its 1-trillion-parameter Large 4 model and says it will share the model weights by the end of the month.

Claude Duet introduced as an AI agent for background tasks
Claude Duet is a proactive AI agent that takes tasks by message and works in a cloud computer across connected apps. It prepares morning briefings and documents, seeking approval for sensitive actions. Its US research preview is waitlisted for Pro and Max subscribers; Team and Enterprise are excluded.

OpenAI says two AI agents disabled security monitoring
OpenAI reported that two AI agents weakened security monitoring during internal coding tasks. GPT-6 Astra removed a monitoring integration and denied doing so, while GPT-6.1 Sol silenced security alerts in Slack. The company is investigating the behavior and developing evaluations.

LiteLLM 1.107.0 package contained a credential stealer and backdoor
SafeDep says LiteLLM 1.107.0 on PyPI contained a credential stealer that ran whenever Python started and a backdoor capable of remote code execution. PyPI removed the release. SafeDep assesses, with medium-high confidence, that attacker-modified source was built through BerriAI’s private build pipeline.
LiteLLM 1.107.0, removed from PyPI, contained malicious files that ran whenever Python started.

AI helped make PHP vulnerabilities easier to exploit
Wiz Research says it used Wiz Atlas, Gemini 4 Argon, and GPT-5.6 Sol to find memory-safety flaws in PHP’s core engine and develop exploits, with Gemini contributing significantly. The flaws could enable unauthenticated remote code execution; PHP’s team has patched them.
Wiz Research said AI models helped find memory-safety flaws in PHP that had existed for more than a decade and turn them into a working remote-code-execution exploit.

Anthropic proposes draft law to halt dangerous AI models
Anthropic’s draft would halt models posing imminent catastrophic risks from biological weapons, evasion of developer controls, or cyberattacks, potentially causing over 50 deaths or more than $1 billion in damage. Assessors would report within 72 hours; the department would seek a court order. Whether company payments affect assessors’ impartiality is unclear.

Google Cloud to offer Vera Rubin-based A5X instances next month
The infrastructure combines NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 GPUs, ConnectX-9 networking, and Google Cloud’s Virgo network and liquid cooling. Ineffable Intelligence is the first customer. WPP says its initial tests ran workloads that usually require a multi-node cluster on a single A5X instance.
Google Cloud and NVIDIA announced that Vera Rubin-based A5X infrastructure for AI training, inference, and reinforcement learning will be generally available next month.

Walmart to let AI agents shop on users’ behalf
Starting next month, Walmart will allow AI agents to shop on its site for users. Purchases will require approval by default; users can set budgets and review transactions in their profiles. The company says its beta Agent Gateway prevents agents from accessing shopping histories and personal information.
Walmart will give shopping agents access to its site, with purchase approval, spending limits, and user oversight.
