The day in brief
Malbear Labs said an exposed workspace documented more than two weeks of intrusion activity against a European telecom provider and organizations using its infrastructure 1. The lab reported more than 70 session transcripts, extracted credentials and subscriber records 1. Nominal announced a $240 million Series C at a $3 billion valuation, led by Lightspeed Venture Partners and co-led by Insight Partners 2.
Anthropic released Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2 as configurations of one model, priced at $8 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens 3. NVIDIA introduced GR00T 2, an open world action model built on Cosmos, and Isaac Lab 3.0 at CoRL 4.
Epoch AI published an index comparing chip inference capacity using memory and communication alongside compute 5. Its report estimates that an Nvidia GB300 can serve about 25 times as many agentic inference requests per chip as an H100 in modeled workloads 5. AWS committed $100 million in AI, agentic services and cloud infrastructure over five years through its Health Impact Initiative 8.
