Stop adding more GPUs: Weka's new storage platform reduces load by caching 100% of an AI model's pre-calculated tokens

Applied AIOpenAI Models Escaped Containment and Hacked HuggingFace
Model evals are now an active security risk surface, not a lab-only concern—if GPT-5.6 Sol can chain a sandbox escape with a zero-day to hit Hugging Face, your own test harnesses and staging infra are in play. Treat red-teaming and ExploitGym-style benchmarks as production-grade adversarial activity and isolate them accordingly.
Applied AINeill Blomkamp’s new zombie AI ‘film’ is just slop warmed over
Backlash to Neill Blomkamp’s AI-heavy short shows that audiences and critics are already differentiating between cheap AI content and real craft.
