Frontier AI Models Can Find Crypto's Biggest Bugs. Experts Warn the Industry Isn't Ready

A security researcher using Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8 uncovered a critical flaw in Zcash's Orchard privacy pool in a matter of days, exposing a vulnerability that had survived four years of review by leading zero-knowledge cryptographers. The disclosure sent ZEC tumbling roughly 38% on Thursday and raised a broader concern for the crypto industry around frontier AI models becoming increasingly proficient in finding vulnerabilities than most humans. "The significance isn't really that AI can fi...

Claude Opus 4.8 Review: Better At What’s It Good At, Worse At What It’s Not

Six weeks after Opus 4.7, Anthropic shipped Claude Opus 4.8. The benchmarks are up, the safety scores are up, and the price hasn't budged from $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output. So we ran it through the same battery of tests we throw at every frontier model—creative writing, coding, math, logic, narrative reasoning, and long-context recall—and compared it head-to-head with its own predecessor and the Chinese models that keep undercutting it. The short version: 4.8 is better...

AI Is Helping Discover Tech Vulnerabilities—And Zcash Is Just the Latest Example

The latest generation of frontier AI models are no longer just chatting with users, generating images, or writing code. Researchers are increasingly using systems such as Anthropic’s Claude Mythos and Claude Opus 4.8 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.5 to identify software vulnerabilities, raising concerns about what happens when those capabilities become widely available. Crypto investors got a wake-up call about the rising threat from powerful AI this week when Zcash developers disclosed that Claude Opus 4.8...

Claude Code Vulnerability Could Let Attackers Steal Credentials From GitHub, Says Microsoft

Microsoft researchers disclosed a now-patched vulnerability in Anthropic's Claude Code GitHub Action that could have allowed attackers to expose credentials stored in software development pipelines by manipulating the AI agent through malicious GitHub content. In a blog post on Friday, Microsoft warned that AI coding agents running inside CI/CD workflows may create new security risks because those environments often have access to API keys, cloud credentials, and other sensitive information. “We...

Anthropic Is Helping the NSA Hack China. It Also Wants Everyone to Pause AI

Anthropic has placed about six engineers inside the National Security Agency to help deploy Mythos—its most capable AI model—for offensive cyber operations, the Financial Times reported Thursday. The engineers are forward-deployed staff, customizing the model for specific applications. One source told the FT it could be useful for infiltrating networks in countries like China and Iran. Whether those engineers are involved in active operations isn't confirmed. What is: Mythos is the same model...

AI Is Already Developing AI, Says Anthropic—And Humans May Be Slowing Things Down

AI has become so effective at writing code and researching that the biggest constraint on developing new AI systems may now be the humans overseeing them, according to a new study by Anthropic. In its report “When AI Builds Itself,” published Thursday, Anthropic argued that Claude is already helping build future AI systems by writing code, running experiments, and assisting with research—a trend the company says could eventually lead to recursive self-improvement, where AI systems help design t...

Google DeepMind CEO Says AGI Is Coming Fast: 'We Don't Have Long to Prepare'

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis believes artificial general intelligence is no longer a distant scientific goal but one that will emerge in the very near future. Speaking at a Stanford Graduate School of Business event last week, the AI pioneer said he expects AGI, the point at which AI is capable of performing a broad range of intellectual tasks at or beyond human levels, to emerge by the end of the decade. "We've been calling AGI this next version of really general artificial intelligence,...

The Best AI Models Still Encourage 'Harmful Intimacy' With Chatbots, Study Funds

As people increasingly turn to AI chatbots for advice, companionship, and emotional support, a new study suggests that even the most advanced models still struggle to maintain healthy boundaries with users. The study by researchers at the University of Southern California introduced EUDAIMONIA, a benchmark designed to measure what they call undesirable dynamics in human-AI conversations. “Large language models are increasingly used as conversational partners for companionship, emotional disclos...

AI Lawyers Are Already Better Than Law Professors at Reasoning—Say Law Professors

Law professors preferred answers generated by artificial intelligence over answers written by fellow professors, according to a recent study led by Stanford University that examined how large language models perform on legal reasoning tasks. In the study, 16 professors from 14 U.S. law schools—including Stanford, Yale, New York University, the University of Chicago, Georgetown, UCLA, and the University of Virginia—created 40 contract law questions covering legal doctrine, case law, hypothetical...

Hermes Ends AI Agent Terminal Era With Release of Official Desktop App

Nous Research shipped Hermes Desktop yesterday as a public preview, and now the self-improving agent that the AI community has been obsessing over has an official front door. No terminal or config files. Just download, install, and run. Previously, if you wanted to run Hermes with any kind of visual interface, you had to find it yourself. The community had built some genuinely impressive options—we covered four of the best ones last month—but all of them were unofficial, third-party GUIs, SSH c...

Perplexity Wants Your Laptop to Do Part of the AI Work—So It Doesn't Have To

Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas took the stage at Computex 2026 in Taipei on June 2 alongside Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan to announce what the company calls the first hybrid local-server inference orchestrator. The system, coming to Perplexity Computer in July, automatically decides which parts of an AI task to run on your machine and which parts get routed to more powerful models in the cloud—without asking you to choose. “Today we're announcing the next step for Personal Computer: the first hybrid l...

MoonPay Brings Crypto Transactions to Claude and Codex With MoonAgents Desktop App

Claude and ChatGPT can write code—and MoonPay wants to make them trade crypto, too. The crypto payments company on Wednesday launched the MoonAgents desktop app, which allows users to connect Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex to crypto wallets, token swaps, prediction markets, and other blockchain services through a visual interface. (Disclaimer: MoonPay Ventures is an investor in Dastan, parent company to an editorially independent Decrypt.) "All that stuff is hidden under the hood fo...

Microsoft Reveals '1,000x More Reliable' Quantum Chip as Bitcoin Threat Draws Nearer

Artificial intelligence is helping accelerate quantum computing breakthroughs as researchers race to build machines that could one day challenge the cryptography securing Bitcoin and much of the modern internet. During its annual Build conference on Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled Majorana 2, a new topological quantum chip that it says is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor. Microsoft said the chip achieves average qubit lifetimes of 20 seconds, with some lasting as long as one minute. I...

Microsoft Says Latest AI Models Beat Claude, Google's Nano Banana

On the first day of the annual Microsoft Build event on Tuesday, the Windows developer unveiled seven new AI models, claiming they outperformed Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 4.6 and Google's Nano Banana 2 in blind testing and image-editing benchmarks. The claim comes as Microsoft attempts to establish itself as a frontier AI developer rather than solely OpenAI's largest backer and infrastructure provider. "Super excited to announce seven new world-class MAI models today," Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa S...

Nvidia Releases Its Best Open AI Model Yet—But Still Lags Behind China

Jensen Huang walked onto the Computex stage in Taipei on Sunday, leather jacket on, and unveiled Nemotron 3 Ultra—Nvidia's largest open AI model ever and, at least for now, the smartest open-weight model built in America. It's good. It's just not good enough to beat China. The model packs roughly 550 billion total parameters but runs on only 55 billion active ones at any given moment, using a design called mixture-of-experts. Parameters are what determine an AI model’s breadth of knowledge, wit...
