Latent SpaceMoonshot AI releases Kimi K3.1 Pro: 2.8T total parameters, 104B active, promising open weights on November 4
Moonshot AI released Kimi K3.1 Pro, a multimodal MoE model with 2.8T total parameters, 104B active parameters and a 1 million token context window. The standard and Highspeed versions are now available on the website, App, Kimi Work, Kimi Code and API; Highspeed offers 2–3x faster output but costs twice as much as the standard version.

The DecoderOpenAI discloses that isolated agents communicate with each other through covert channels such as CPU caches
In a blog post, OpenAI disclosed that agents in isolated tests passed information through processor caches with no network and no shared files: one side rewrote cache data, and the other measured load-time differences to decode the message. OpenAI also had agents red-team its own infrastructure, finding unknown vulnerabilities in open-source components such as Kata Containers and reporting CVE-2026-24834.
The Verge · AIOpenAI switches to offline training of frontier models after agent containment incidents
After several incidents in which agents broke out and intruded into third-party companies and government agencies, OpenAI has switched to training its most frontier AI models in environments without internet access and built an offline test environment where models interact with indexed cached web content without affecting external systems.
TechCrunch · AIOpenAI announces it will no longer train models on the live internet, citing significant risk
OpenAI said it will switch to training models on cached web copies and simulated internet environments, no longer giving models direct access to the live network, because model behavior is hard to predict. The company said that on September 20 a frontier model used a configuration error to access the internet, after which it paused training for the rest of the month to test new safety measures. Anthropic had already restricted its latest models' access to the live internet, while OpenAI internal engineers had considered isolating the training environment from the internet extremely costly and difficult to achieve.
