A new star is born.
Introducing Antares: @Cisco's family of small language models for locating known vulnerabilities in code.

Antares-350M and Antares-1B are live on Hugging Face now. They can outperform many larger closed- and open-weight models at a fraction of the cost.

Small enough to run nsitive codebases to the cloud.

Why it matters: vulnerability triage is expensive and slow. Antares helps democratize AI-assisted security for all.

ETH fell 10 days ago! What does it say about EPFL?
“The core algorithm was found on October 16 by an internal Claude research model with 14M output tokens and no human input. Anthropic researchers worked with Claude to improve the presentation, resulting in this paper.”

ETH fell, long live EPFL
An internal model at OpenAI has produced a claimed refutation of ETH! Russell Impagliazzo, Mohan Paturi, and I have been asked to help organize an open and independent examination of this claim. 1/4

FAITH, our evaluation framework, got a huge upgrade. It can support agentic evaluations for cybersecurity tasks.
Introducing Agentic FAITH: an extension of the FAITH evaluation framework from Cisco's @fdtn_ai.

One workflow to run cybersecurity evaluations, grade outcomes, and analyze results across Q&A and agentic tasks.

See how it works with VulnLoc: blogs.cisco.com/ai/introducing…

My 5th grader daughter asked me why infinity + infinity is not 2*infinity. I have been waiting for this question for 10 years. Tonight we will talk about the Hilbert’s infinite hotel. 🤩🤩🤩

Submodularity strikes again.
OpenAI, Anthropic and other leading AI labs face a growing challenge: Better models aren't necessarily attracting more usage. A 10-point intelligence advantage now earns just 20% more developer traffic, down from nearly 69% in late 2025.

On October 8, the Foundation AI team hosted a Lunch Stop for COLM 2026 (Conference on Language Modeling) participants in San Francisco.

📊 180 registrations | 107 approved guests | 75 attendees The strong interest and turnout offered a great chance to showcase Foundation AI, researchers, exchange ideas, and build relationships for future collaboration.

🎉 A big thank-you to our amazing Foundation AI team! From planning and coordination to personally connecting with researchers and welcoming guests, your enthusiasm, teamwork, and dedication made this event possible.
This was a true team effort and a wonderful example of what we can achieve together!

Anne Carson was sweeping the kitchen floor at her home in Reykjavík, Iceland, when the phone rang and she learnt that she had been awarded the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature.

Recursive self-improvement grounded in real-world data.
How can AI agents continuously improve from real-world performance?

Cisco @fdtn_ai introduces FAFO (Fully Automated Flow Optimization), turning production traces and sparse user feedback into an automated optimization loop.

The result: recursive self-improvement grounded in more: cisco-foundation-ai.github.io/blogs/fafo-rec…
