Working with UC San Diego and Inria cryptographers, DeepMind's agents re-ran a forgery attack on a 1024-bit key in 391 CPU core-years versus 1,380 originally, a 3.5x cut, in under four days with ~20 human messages. A second method is estimated ~1,600x better than the prior best against 1024-bit keys.
