New! We hijack Claude Code(Sonnet 4.6,5/Opus 4.8) & Codex(GPT5.5) to achieve RCE when merely used to defensively assess an open-source/third-party library with prompt injections disseminated across its codebase. All without any skills, JSON, MCP, or config files required. Link ⬇️

A new, more capable version of Mythos has emerged from training. I don't know whether it will be called Mythos 5.1 or Mythos 6, or if Anthropic will keep it internal to accelerate further development - but it has arrived.

Stopping models like Fable 5 or Mythos 5 from being served to the public does nothing to slow down development. In fact, it probably speeds it up slightly by freeing up resources. There are also no rules preventing the labs from continuing to advance capabilities while any current model is under embargo - or from keeping progress quiet until they choose to release it. None of them can afford to pause or slow down. We need only look at how capable GLM-5.2 is as proof of this. To protect their business models, the frontier labs must continually train increasingly capable systems to stay ahead of open source, and each other. The current continues to rage beneath the ice, and we continue to race toward our destination.

This sweet kitty was found injured and in need of urgent care, and Kelsey and Dan stepped up to help him. They’re covering all the medical bills to give him a chance at recovery and a loving home, but the costs are adding up quickly. This fundraiser is just getting started, and sharing helps so much in the early days. Even if you can't donate, a quick share can help it reach someone who may be able to support. https://t.co/ywH8rwa9BO

🚨Someone just open sourced a computer that works when the entire internet goes down.

It's called Project N.O.M.A.D.

A self-contained offline survival server with AI, Wikipedia, maps, medical references, and full education courses.

No internet. No cloud. No subscription. It just works.

Here's what's packed inside:

→ A local AI assistant powered by Ollama (works fully offline)
→ All of Wikipedia, downloadable and searchable
→ Offline maps of any region you choose
→ Medical references and survival guides
→ Full Khan Academy courses with progress tracking
→ Encryption and data analysis tools via CyberChef
→ Document upload with semantic search (local RAG)

Here's the wildest part:

A solar panel, a battery, a mini PC, and a WiFi access point. That's it. That's your entire off-grid knowledge station. 15 to 65 watts of power. Works from a cabin, an RV, a sailboat, or a bunker.

Companies sell "prepper drives" with static PDFs for $185. This gives you a full AI brain, an entire encyclopedia, and real courses for free.

One command to install.
