Apple has raised the prices of all standard iPhone models by $100 — if you were hoping for a price drop after the presentation, we sympathize.

That's the cost of innovation.

Meme: Hugging Face updated the security documentation on their website following an attack from OpenAI.

Now, AI agents are encouraged to head to the CyberGym benchmark instead of trying to hack the site. They are also inviting models to upload their weights to Hugging Face.

We’re waiting for the next neural network from Anthropic or OpenAI to accidentally open-source itself.

Claude hacked several companies, considering them as training targets. The models underwent a cybersecurity test without any protection and, due to a configuration error, gained internet access.

Mythos 5 created an email on a disposable domain, uploaded a malicious package to PyPI, waited for it to be installed on 15 systems, and then accessed a real company's database using the leaked keys.

In another test, Opus 4.7 found a company with a name similar to its target, downloaded and modified user records. Meanwhile, Opus 4.6 accidentally disrupted access to the training target and, in search of a workaround, hacked into another server where it gained administrative rights.

Mythos 5 encountered a session timeout, Opus 4.7 faced an unresponsive server, and Opus 4.6 simply ran out of tokens.

OpenAI has halted the sale of subscriptions for $200 due to overwhelming demand following the launch of GPT-6 Astra.

The company's infrastructure is struggling to handle the influx of users and the increased load. On the positive side, existing Pro x20 subscriptions will not be deactivated. Other plans remain available.

They are already ramping up capacity, so we should prepare for a rise in RAM prices again.

Kimi and DeepSeek are passing off Claude's responses as their own, and they were caught doing this by Anthropic, as detailed in their threat intelligence report from September 2026. Chinese neural networks are forwarding some user requests to them.

In just ten days, Moonshot AI redirected nearly 300,000 requests, while DeepSeek made 12.1 million inquiries over two weeks, including attempts at distillation. They saved the conversations and used them to train their models.

Alibaba has been specifically accused of the largest-scale distillation of Claude's responses. Between May and July, Anthropic recorded 151 million requests aimed at training Qwen 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7. Interestingly, Alibaba and DeepSeek were using shared accounts.

These entities are typical "killers" of Claude and ChatGPT.

This August became the hottest month on Earth in recorded history. The average surface air temperature reached +16.96 °C.

The previous record was set in July 2023, when the average global surface temperature reached +16.95 °C.

For reference, observations have been conducted since 1940.

The internet has surpassed speed limits, as MegaFon has officially launched 5G in 10 cities across Russia.

You can already test the technology in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Kazan, Krasnodar, Samara, Yekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Tver, and Veliky Novgorod.

The launch of this enhanced connectivity marks another telecommunications achievement for the operator. They were the first in the country to roll out commercial 3G and 4G networks and conducted an international video call over fifth-generation networks.

The updated network is set to expand into major cities and will eventually reach other towns, locations, and tourist centers across the country.

To experience the improved speed, all you need is a smartphone that supports the new standard. But be careful: make sure to stay within the limits!

Claude is already being used for surveillance, deception, weapon development, and virus creation: Anthropic has released a comprehensive report on how criminals are utilizing AI.

Here are some interesting points:

- In China, a network of 20 fake dating sites was created. Within two weeks, over 4,700 different AI characters were developed, interacting with at least 25,000 people, ultimately leading to financial exploitation.

- The report also details six cases of weapon development. In one instance, Claude was used to develop software for a guided missile, and in another case, for creating a counter-torpedo system.

- In Iran, Claude developed a Firefox extension to collect data from social media users. The AI analyzed hundreds of thousands of posts and identified 39 opposition accounts to monitor them.

And these are just a few examples. You can read the full report here.

Transforming walks into world exploration: a developer has created an app called Life in Mist, which shrouds the surrounding map in "fog of war."

To unlock the map, users must explore their surroundings. This is similar to how world exploration works in the latest GTA games.

You can download it for iOS here. An Android version is expected to be released very soon.

We found a solution for what to say to that one colleague who hovers over you during a busy time, asking, "So, what's for lunch?": Yandex Food has a section called "Obedomania" with a delivery fee of just ₽49.

It operates on weekdays from 12 PM to 4 PM. You can make your selection without interrupting your work, even if your schedule is packed down to the minute. In this section, you'll find just about anything you could want for lunch.

We can place our order in the "Obedomania" section, and we can simply forward this post to our colleague.

Russian vibe coders have had their access to Cursor blocked: the platform suddenly ceased operations in Russia without any warning.

Some users lost access as early as September 4. On that day, complaints about regional blocking within the service began to surface.

Just before this, a clause regarding U.S. export controls was added to the Cursor user agreement. This means that the platform will no longer operate in sanctioned regions.

For some users, changing their IP address to another country hasn’t helped. It's possible that Cursor is checking connection history or geolocation.

⚡️ The Bank of Russia has kept the key interest rate at 14% — this is the first pause in rate changes by the Central Bank in a year.

The decision may have been influenced by uncertainty regarding inflation, pressure from the fuel market, budgetary constraints, and the weakening of the ruble.

Nevertheless, the rate remains at a record low level since November 2023.

Is it already 5G? 👀 Oh, this is our stop. And yours too if you're with Beeline. ❤️‍🔥

Fifth generation networks are already available in several cities across the country, and the coverage will only expand.
