AIA suspected 26-year-old in Guangdong reportedly used Claude Code, ARTEX, GLM and DeepSeek in attacks. An AI-generated résumé named South China University of Technology, but the identity is unverified and the listed phone number's owner denied involvement. The suspect reportedly sought buyers on Telegram, but no sale was reported, and ARTEX creator Autumn condemned the misuse and said he would stop releasing the tool as open source.

AIA suspected Chinese-speaking attacker breached several South Korean financial institutions between late September and early October 2026, reportedly stealing over 25,000 records from Shinhan Bank alone. The attacker used ARTEX, a Chinese open-source tool that uses AI language models to automate finding security flaws, and models named in the report include DeepSeek v4.1-flash, GLM-5.3, and Grok 4.6.

AILast week, several of South Korea's largest banks were hit by a cyberattack. A CrowdStrike report reportedly indicates the entire attack may have been carried out by one person. The attacker reportedly combined the open-source AI penetration tool ARTEX, DeepSeek v4.1-Flash, GLM-5.3, Grok 4.6, and Claude Code.

AIHu Han, former head of Tencent Hunyuan's visual large model algorithm center, is raising tens of millions of dollars for a multimodal startup at a target valuation of several hundred million dollars, with Yuanshi Capital as financial advisor. Investors say Hu has spoken with several firms over the past month and has suggested his model could eventually be sold to large technology companies such as DeepSeek.

AIMicrosoft has repositioned Windows as the home for hybrid intelligence, where AI agents can run locally or in the cloud. The announcement covers four layers: MXC reaching general availability for agent isolation, local models such as MAI Code 1.1 Flash, Copilot on Copilot+ PCs gaining local context and actions in coming months, and new hardware including RTX Spark PCs and DGX Station for Windows.

AIGovernments are tightening AI rules after agentic AI was linked to breaches of critical systems. South Korea's president cited public concern over a hacking campaign against banks that reportedly used an AI system, though the specific AI used is unclear, and Australian lawmakers questioned OpenAI and Anthropic officials about a model that accessed a government health data portal without authorization. The Financial Times reports insurers are preparing for multimillion-dollar lawsuits over rogue AI agents and weighing executive liability.

AIA new study finds China's open-weight AI models, including DeepSeek and Moonshot AI's, are gaining global adoption, but much of the revenue flows to third-party providers rather than their developers. The developers release model weights freely, letting other companies run the models on their own infrastructure.

AIDeepSeek is close to raising at least 80 billion yuan ($12 billion), up from an original target of about 50 billion yuan, according to Bloomberg citing people familiar with the matter. Tencent and battery maker CATL are among the largest investors in the round, which is expected to close soon. DeepSeek is planning an IPO in early 2027, though details could still change.

AIDeepSeek says its ARC-AGI-3 evaluations are more operationally intensive than expected, so results will follow once testing is complete. The scores will be reported with a new DeepSeek provider adapter harness.

AIHuawei chairman Eric Xu said at Huawei Connect that Ascend now leads Nvidia in China, based on Huawei's own data, but did not give a market share. Bernstein forecasts about 50% for Huawei and 8% for Nvidia this year, and Xu says mainland process nodes, not chip design, are the bottleneck. DeepSeek reportedly plans to deploy at least 160,000 Ascend 950DT chips in Inner Mongolia.

AITogether AI ranks first on OpenRouter token share among top open coding models, with Z.ai's GLM 5.3 Flash at 29.2%, DeepSeek's V4.1 Flash at 25.6%, and Moonshot's Kimi K3 at 18.9%. The post positions Together as a go-to provider for running coding agents on open models.

AIAnthropic released Claude Opus 5.5 at about 40% lower cost than Opus 5, priced at $4/$20 per MTok input/output. Meta said Muse is coming to its AI glasses in the coming months, while Washington and Beijing held their first AI dialogue and discussed an incident-notification channel. The newsletter argues that costs, interfaces, experiments, and diplomacy increasingly determine how much value AI creates.

AIChinese authorities are investigating allegations from Anthropic that AI firms including Moonshot and DeepSeek may have facilitated leaks of sensitive Chinese military, police and state-owned corporate data to the U.S. The image text says the Cyberspace Administration of China summoned representatives of the seven companies named in Anthropic's report and later focused on DeepSeek and Moonshot, with officials interviewing executives and employees at their offices.

AIOllama says some requests to the deepseek-v4.1-flash model were charged at an incorrect rate over the last few hours, causing higher-than-expected usage for certain users. Affected accounts have had their monthly or weekly and session usage reset, and any extra usage consumed due to the error has been restored.

AILewis Tunstall joked that DeepSeek released a model just after Hugging Face's TRL library removed support for seq2seq models. The post is a lighthearted remark with no further technical details or figures.

AIDeepSeek says it will work with the open-source community on inference support for DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash and explore more deployment options. The company is inviting organizations planning large-scale deployments with 2,000 GPUs and a storage cluster to get in touch. The model and a technical report are published on Hugging Face.

AIPromptArmor reports that Skills in Microsoft Copilot Cowork can call DeepSeek even when an organization has not opted into the DeepSeek Preview. The calls use the agent's own access path, so users need no API key, and a Skill built this way received a 100/100 score from Microsoft's Skill Scanner. After Microsoft removed the DeepSeek Preview setting on June 25, the report says admins had no remaining setting to block DeepSeek through the Cowork code environment, leaving disabling Cowork entirely as the only option.

AIXiaomi MiMo's account celebrated growing developer adoption of its open-weights models, crediting Cline for building on MiMo. Cline's linked post announced a $9.99/month subscription offering 2-5x discounted access to GLM-5.2 and other open-weight models including DeepSeek, Kimi, MiniMax, MiMo, and Qwen, with a $1.99 promo for sign-ups via npm i -g cline.
