So it looks like OpenAI's models helped discover those critical PHP vulnerabilities.
The question is: were these vulnerabilities already known? Were they being actively exploited?
OpenAI models helped researchers—operating as part of our Patch the Planet initiative—discover critical security flaws in PHP, an open-source programming language used to run an estimated 70% of websites.
Over the past two months, we led a coalition of maintainers, researchers, and security providers to prepare fixes and protections ahead of disclosure. This duration was necessary because the fix was quite intricate and required a major change to the PHP engine. Every site using PHP can now safely upgrade their version to stay secure, in addition to applying mitigations from various security vendors.
Due to the severity of these flaws and PHP’s widespread use, we consider this bug to be one of the most impactful vulnerabilities in recent memory. It also marks a new phase, where AI can find security bugs with internet-scale impact.
This is an example of the Defender’s Window in action: to our knowledge, frontier AI was able to find this vulnerability ahead of attackers, giving defenders time to prepare.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
OpenAI may claim a role in the coordinated response and patching process. But the initial discovery and exploit development, however, occurred several months earlier by an independent researcher.

If your application uses PHP, stay tuned and get ready for an important security update
Google Cloud’s europe-west2 seems to be experiencing some issues.
A good reminder to build for multi-region resilience.
Multiple banks (Lloyds, Revolut, Bank of Scotland and HSBC) are down for some users.
This looks like a Google Cloud issue.
Importantly, your money in Revolut will be safe - this clearly isn't a hack on them and the issue lies with a third party.

And Brandon is absolutely right. The video game industry is the only one lying about not using AI. But I’ve come across so many people with this mindset of “Wait, that uses AI? Then I’m not using it.”
Dude, pretty much all software today is built with AI. Apps, websites, games… everything. The sooner you accept it, the less frustrated you’ll be.
Also, the whole AI = less value argument makes no sense. Do we say a tomato grown on land plowed with tractors is worth less than one grown on land plowed by hand? At the end of the day, what matters is the final product.
Brandon Stirrup, who says he has spent more than 10 years at Xbox and Microsoft, is calling out the gaming industry for pretending it isn’t using AI.
“If I’m Fired Tomorrow It Will Be Because I Told You The Truth That Nobody Wants You To Know”
He says gaming is “the only industry pretending to not use AI” and that developers need to accept AI as part of the future.
He also claims that games can already be created with simple prompts, including custom games tailored to what players want.
Stirrup says he’s willing to take the backlash for speaking openly about it, even saying he could be fired for telling people what “nobody wants you to know.”
“We use AI, just as all companies do in 2026.”

From an engineering and design perspective, it's absolutely mind-blowing.
But genuine question: what's the actual use case for this?
You can now build iOS apps without a Mac with xtool (opensource)
github.com/xtool-org/xtool
¡Ya no necesitas un Mac para desarrollar en iOS!
xtool te permite usar Windows y Linux.
✓ Firma, instala y abre la app en tu iPhone
✓ Accede a tu cuenta Apple Developer
✓ Todo el flujo sin macOS
¡Y todo de código abierto!

- Most people barely use AI, let alone build software with it.
- A $20 subscription won’t get you very far when building software.
-Replicating mature software like Adobe’s products isn’t something you can do in an afternoon. It takes a lot of time, polishing, and tokens.
I see a lot of people overlooking Haiku and underestimating what it can do
Used for the right tasks, it can save you a ton of tokens without sacrificing quality

Increíble de ver a los “expertos” en solventar la emergencia de vivienda que vive España! En cada televisión! @telediario_tve @A3Noticias @tele5_noticias @noticias_cuatro La realidad es que tenemos a políticos que intentan crear decretos y soluciones cuando no tienen la preparación ni el conocimiento para idear una solución real al problema que vivimos.
España no tiene un problema de falta de decretos. Tiene un problema de falta de viviendas.
Y mientras el Gobierno siga confundiendo anunciar medidas con resolver problemas, seguiremos pagando las consecuencias de su inacción.
Subvencionar la demanda sin aumentar la oferta presiona los precios. Regular cada vez más un mercado sin construir vivienda nueva no elimina la escasez: la administra. Castigar fiscalmente una modalidad de alquiler puede cambiar incentivos, pero tampoco pone un solo ladrillo.
El Gobierno puede aprobar todas las medidas que quiera y venderlas como grandes soluciones. Puede encadenar decretos, anuncios y campañas de propaganda. Pero hay una pregunta que desmonta cualquier discurso:
¿Cuántas viviendas nuevas crea todo esto?
Porque la vivienda no se abarata repartiendo la escasez. Se abarata acabando con ella.
España necesita construir. Mucho.
Más suelo disponible. Licencias en meses, no en años. Más densidad donde sea posible. Seguridad jurídica. Muchísima más vivienda pública y también privada.
Pero el Gobierno no está haciendo lo necesario. Prefiere intervenir sobre las pocas viviendas que existen antes que crear las condiciones para que haya muchas más. Prefiere presentar parches como soluciones y cargar sobre propietarios, promotores y ciudadanos el coste de su fracaso.
Lo demás puede servir para redistribuir, proteger a determinados colectivos o cambiar incentivos. Pero no confundamos eso con solucionar el problema de fondo.
No se arregla una falta de vivienda repartiendo mejor las pocas casas que existen. Se arregla haciendo que existan muchas más.
Menos propaganda. Menos parches. Menos obsesión por intervenir sobre el mismo piso.
Más oferta. Más construcción. Más casas.
I’ll never understand announcing supposedly frontier models and then not releasing them.
It just feels like smoke
