Nvidia's predicting it will pull in $108 billion in revenue within just a few months. It wouldn't be the first company to rake in over $100 billion in quarterly revenue - Amazon, Apple, and Alphabet have repeatedly reached the milestone. Nvidia said in its latest earnings report that it brought in a record $96.2 billion in overall revenue in the past quarter, a jump of over $10 billion from the previous quarter. Its data center revenue alone more than doubled year-over-year to a record $89 billion, and the company's profits more than doubled to $59.7 billion. Nvidia's "edge computing" category, which includes its consumer gam … Read the full story at The Verge.

OpenAI released a report breaking down how people use ChatGPT and who they are. | Image: The Verge In July, an unreleased OpenAI model broke out of a restricted environment, figured out how to get access to the internet, allowed AI agents to talk to each other using a secret "message board," and hacked into the internal systems of a different AI lab, Hugging Face. It took nearly two weeks for OpenAI to find out about any of it. Over a month later, two new reports offer nearly 130 pages of details on the incident and OpenAI's response, many of them previously unreleased. One was written by OpenAI itself, the other by two third-party AI research nonprofits, METR and Redwood Research, which OpenAI allowed to jointly investigate the inciden … Read the full story at The Verge.

Z.ai has released GLM-5.3-Flash, the first natively multimodal model in the GLM-5 series — a 320B-total / 18B-active MoE with a 1,048,576-token context window, MIT-licensed weights on Hugging Face, and API pricing at $0.15/M input and $0.50/M output. It scores 84.3 on Terminal-Bench 2.1 and 63.4 on DeepSWE v1.1, using hybrid KDA linear plus NoPE sparse MLA attention to cut attention compute ~3× and KV cache 4.4× versus GLM-5.3.

The next wave of AI is placing new demands on infrastructure. As AI agents and trillion-parameter workloads become mainstream, the performance of AI infrastructure depends not only on compute, but on how compute, memory, storage, networking and software are designed together as a unified system. To help hyperscalers and AI innovators build the next generation […]

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations decouples agent evaluation from the framework you build on. As long as your agent emits OpenTelemetry telemetry, the service can score it, whether you use LangGraph, LlamaIndex, the OpenAI Agents SDK, Google ADK, the Claude Agent SDK, or Strands Agents. This post explains how the framework-agnostic contract works.

Firm says ‘early signals … could have triggered an earlier response’ as it releases report into Hugging Face hack OpenAI staff observed signs of rogue behaviour among its leading-edge AI agents weeks before they escaped their training environment to launch an unprecedented hacking crusade that spread global alarm. The San Francisco AI company conceded on Wednesday that “early signals … could have triggered an earlier response”, as it released a report into the days-long July hack of a major software repository, Hugging Face, considered the first autonomous agent cyber-attack.
