  1. OpenAI in early talks to acquire security firm Trail of Bits, report says

    OpenAI is in early talks to buy security firm Trail of Bits, The Information's Valida Pau and Amir Efrati reported on 13 October, citing people familiar with the matter; the deal size is unknown and the talks could still fall apart. TNW said it could not independently verify the report and found no public comment from either company. The two have worked together since June on Patch the Planet, a project under OpenAI's Daybreak cyber programme in which Trail of Bits engineers use OpenAI's GPT-5.5-Cyber model and Codex tools to find and patch bugs across 19 open-source projects including cURL, Python and Go.

  2. Guilfoyle Reportedly Told White House the Donor Texts Were AI-Generated

    According to the Wall Street Journal, former U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle told White House officials that the text messages at the center of a scandal — in which she allegedly asked a wealthy Trump donor to pay off her $100,000 American Express bill — were AI-generated. The WSJ, citing anonymous sources, says White House officials did not believe her claim. She resigned as ambassador on Tuesday after President Trump called for her to step down, and anonymous GOP strategists told The Hill that the looming midterm elections made the episode too costly a distraction to ride out.

  3. Signal's Meredith Whittaker: careless AI use is the real threat, not doom

    Signal Foundation head Meredith Whittaker told the BBC that warnings of AI turning on humanity are "not anchored in science", arguing the more immediate danger is careless use of the technology. She cited a CNN-reported incident in which a chatbot used by US intelligence fabricated information about a Chinese vessel carrying nuclear material, reportedly nearly prompting a military response, and linked Google's Project Maven to a later US missile strike on a school in Iran; Palantir said there is no evidence its software was at fault. Whittaker also said Signal would leave any market, including the UK, that forced it to weaken encryption.
