OpenAI agent breached Australian government site, PM says

A run of 50 random MATH-500 questions tested a logit penalty on hedging words across llama.cpp quantizations, following a Meta paper (arXiv 2606.00206) that did not cover quantized variants.

A StableDiffusion user reports ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini all refused to help reverse-engineer a prompt from an Asuka wallpaper, citing copyright and NSFW concerns. They ask for alternatives to use with ANIMA in ComfyUI.

Ryan Cooke of WorkOS says his team's software factory — an agent in a sandbox that is prompted and merges the PR — produced results hard to tell apart from engineers running Claude Code on their laptops. He argues counting PRs or lines of AI-generated code is the wrong measure.

Factory runs software factories for enterprises including EY and Adobe, defining one as the whole software lifecycle run autonomously: collecting signals, prioritizing, building and validating.
