What a day! I tested Gemini 4 Carbon on real work. 2 repos, 105 replanted bugs. Find and fix what you can.

It scores just behind Fable 5.2. The results:

- Fable 5.2 (max): 58 for $139.65
- Gemini 4 Carbon (high): 57.3 for $31.32
- Sonnet 5.5 (max): 51.3 for $154.03
- GPT-6 .03
- GPT-6.1 Sol (max): 44.3 for $5.88
- Gemini 4 Argon (high): 40.7 for $7.16

Google's own benchmarks looked super strong, but nobody could access the model. Turns out they didn't lie: +16.6 points over Argon, at less than a quarter of Fable 5.2's cost.

Nobody should be laughing at Google anymore.

(the next effort level drops soon in the thread 🧵)

1) Jensen is one of the greatest entrepreneurs of this generation

2) he did something incredibly dumb

3) it was bad for America

4) but my guess is there was no bad intention

5) two mistakes don’t make a right, and I believe Jensen is irreplaceable for America’s AI leadership

Introducing Arete-27B: Qwen3.8-27B, post-trained to reinforce Western values.

Chinese open models are currently the strongest available, but they ship with state-aligned behavior in the weights. We built an 803-prompt eval across seven value categories, including freedom of and privacy, and measured how often a model adopts China’s party line.

After fine-tuning on roughly 53 million tokens, Arete-27B's propaganda rate fell from 22% to 1%, in line with the Western models we tested. Its Hermes Bench score shows no significant performance tradeoffs.

The values in an open model are one fine-tune away.

Our eval, weights, and training data are available now along with the full blog post: nousresearch.com/arete

Introducing GPT‑6 Cyber: a major advance in security research that pairs stronger capabilities with better model alignment.

The model powered the Linux kernel research we announced yesterday, and security teams at companies like Mozilla, Palo Alto Networks, Calif, and at OpenAI—are already putting it to work.

GPT-6 Cyber is available to select Daybreak Red customers and we are expanding access over time.

Following a potential security issue reported by third-party platform SignalPlus, we have proactively removed all API keys linked to SignalPlus as an immediate precautionary measure.

Binance's own systems are unaffected. User funds remain safe.

If you used SignalPlus, please ccount directly to review your positions and open orders. We recommend waiting until SignalPlus confirms full resolution before rebinding any API keys, and always enabling IP whitelisting.

We also encourage all third-party platforms integrated with Binance to review their security controls, monitor for unusual activity and contact us immediately if they detect any concern

We’re sharing how our biology research team worked with Claude to map the first 3D structure of a vault particle from bacterial life.

Vault particles are a longstanding mystery. They are barrel-shaped objects, among the largest protein structures found in our cells. They were first discovered by Leonard Rome and Nancy Kedersha in 1986, but their function remains unknown.

With Claude, we’ve found results that might bring us closer to solving that mystery.

Until now, vaults were only known in the cells of complex things like animals and plants. We have shown that similar proteins from bacteria (and the viruses that infect them) can also assemble into vaults. Finding the structures in these simpler forms of life may make it easier to investigate their function in our own cells.

For our life sciences team, the project was also a demonstration of the potential (and the limitations) of using AI to accelerate science.

In our full piece, we discuss how Claude was able to dramatically speed up some stages—manually determining the vault particle’s structure would have taken weeks to months of painstaking work, but here it took days. We also discuss how Claude made some simple mistakes along the way, and how we collaborated with our machine learning researchers to address them.
