as someone who constantly complains about @ChatGPT usage and paying for chatgpt sub, i must say that dots may just unironically be worth $100 a month
dots are pretty amazing, i cant lie. they feel magical, they just do things. originally i thought they kinda just seemed like a codex thread with a face, but they definitely have a secret sauce to them that make them feel very cool to use and experience what they can do and i am often surprised

GPT-6.1 Terra means business.
Our new fast, efficient model pairs sharper visual reasoning and precise computer use with clearer, more natural writing.
From decoding technical drawings to drafting proposals, filling forms to editing videos—it’s built for the whole workday.
GPT-6.1 Terra is rolling out today to Plus, Pro, Enterprise, and Edu users in ChatGPT Work and Codex.
🤖 Made with AI

PSA: Daybreak Blue is not hard to get for individuals. The biggest hurdle is setting up two factor authentication for your ChatGPT account with a hardware key, which is a good idea regardless!
Makes sense! I guess maybe OpenAI should be more widely advertising that you don't need to be a big company or a specialized security researcher to get access to Daybreak blue, i'm not sure most people know that. E.g. maybe when you get a cyber refusal on a normal ChatGPT account it can let you know about applying to Daybreak Blue (maybe it does this already, I'm not actually doing any of this stuff myself).
I do think there is a separate issue where people may want to use an LLM that lets them reverse engineer their TV's spyware but doesn't add weird misaligned corruption layers to their code, but I realize that probably involves some complicated legal issues and maybe isn't the most important thing in the world

Last month a large team of agents used over 100 billion tokens to resolve the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize problem. Now we're using a similar approach for red-teaming to find and fix infra vulnerabilities.
To make sure our frontier models don't cause another HuggingFace incident, we built an offline world that they use during training. It provides everything that the models need in a fully cached, indexed, or synthetic manner.
We then built a huge team of our most cyber-capable models and told them to collaborate to find zero-days in this containment infrastructure.
While they didn't find a path to the internet that wouldn't be caught by our CoT monitors, they did find ways to escape popular VMs, exploit our network infrastructure, and even ways to communicate with other agents running in separate VMs by using hardware side channels.
We used this to dramatically harden our infra, and we also upstreamed a ton of patches to open-sources packages.

Codex Security Cloud is very good and more people should use it even though it is not named after a cute animal anymore. Team is adding so many cool features !
To all my Cyber friends, we’re hiring!
Today’s news is a glimpse of what’s ahead for AI and cybersecurity. It’s an increasingly important part of our work at @OpenAI.
We’re hiring a DX Engineer to work alongside our amazing Cyber team and help developers better secure their apps. Come join us!

So cool to work with some of the people finding these vulnerabilities! But also what a crazy time in cyber.
Just gonna drop this here:

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.

And a Codex skill to help!
If you are wondering whether your website is affected, we have packaged a Codex skill to help check.
Point your Codex at this repo to guide you through it: github.com/openai/php2shell-…
Codex Ambassador Applications are still open!
We still need one in many cities including Tbilisi. Apply before it closes.
Meet our Codex Ambassadors 💙
We sat down with a few of our ambassadors from around the world to hear why they joined, what they’re building, and what makes their local communities special. Proud to support them!

This is not me. Apologies to anyone this account is trying to scam.
Working on getting it taken down! Any help reporting it would be great.
