Report on the $6.3 billion Binance hack of October 2026, which the FBI attributed to North Korea's TraderTraitor unit. Co-CEO Richard Teng said attackers used EIP-7702 to gain execution approval over a hot wallet, after a compromised laptop and further breach points, and used self-destructing malware. Binance replaced 90% of the assets, and the FBI expects further laundering through Ethereum. No IOCs or mitigations are given.

A GPU engine runs prefills and GPU-resident decodes, while an AMX-enabled CPU engine batches and advances CPU-resident decodes, optionally calling GPU Dense Assist for dense stages. In decode-oriented scenarios it raises throughput 6.9 to 43.2% over NEO and 11.5 to 90.6% over vLLM at similar latency.

This paper builds a controlled French surface-variant benchmark with seven task types and 4,200 original-low-high triplets (12,600 inputs), covering missing apostrophes and diacritics and keyboard typos. Six models from two LLM families lose accuracy and show worse Brier score and NLL as perturbation grows. Keyboard typos hurt most. Calibration temperatures fitted on original inputs transfer to variants, and combining them with input restoration improves reliability further.

Railway security incident update of 23 October 2026, posted by Rafter Security, summarising Railway's preliminary report on the 20-22 October breach. Up to 1.85% of workspaces (about 100,000) may have had environment variables exposed. Attackers reportedly targeted AI provider API keys, possibly for model distillation. Some encrypted secrets were accessed and a subset decrypted. Railway says the attacker was removed by 22 October at 03:32 UTC, and the forensic investigation continues.

Corgi is a terminal multiplexer for humans and AI coding agents, installed with a curl script. It shows each agent's state (working, needs you, finished, idle), keeps agents running in the background like tmux, and tracks token usage, per-workspace resource use and every file an agent changed. It also supports git worktrees, SSH image paste (needs Ghostty Nightly) and a corgi --skill command that teaches agents to drive it.

This paper studies demographic bias in LLM-emulated electorates, using three U.S. presidential elections and comparing one closed-source and one open-source LLM. Removing gender from the voter profile cuts the largest group error by 22-42%, and removing education cuts it by 64%. Removing self-reported race raises mean group error by over 40%. Repeated queries and fairness instructions do not reduce errors and can double them.

Signal-Aware Adaptive Fusion (SAAF) is a training-free zero-shot video anomaly detection framework that cuts the compute cost of vision-language models. It combines a dual-signal sampler (frame-to-frame delta and rolling-context drift in embedding space, OR-gated with EMA thresholds), a threshold-gated cascade from frame-level to video-level analysis, and signal-aware score fusion. It reports AUC-ROC of 92.07% on XD-Violence, 86.70% on MSAD and 80.54% on ShanghaiTech, at 2.2x to 2.6x the throughput of the prior best zero-shot method.

Preprint (IACR ePrint 2026/2611) proposing a federated learning defense that replaces gradient detection with zero-knowledge-proof sample-level audits of client datasets. A staking mechanism forces attackers to train on discovered poisoned samples with flipped labels, producing counter-gradients that remove the backdoor without knowing the trigger. ZKP commitments lock the training data, which blocks adaptive attacks and gradient tampering. On CIFAR-10 under Dir(0.1) non-IID, it holds attack success rate below 6% against distributed backdoor and edge-case attacks.

This paper studies reverse sycophancy: whether users bend toward a confident, consistent, wrong LLM. In a within-subjects experiment, 32 participants learned science topics from five GPT-5-mini assistants with 0 to 100% of facts replaced by falsehoods. Scores fell from 7.4 to 2.9 out of 10, planted falsehoods were chosen on 60% of falsified items against 11% of correctly taught ones, and confidence stopped tracking correctness. It introduces a baseline-corrected Human Deference Index.

Chunk Recomputation under Real Document Revisions measures how much text must be re-embedded after edits for three stateless chunkers (non-overlapping fixed-size, recursive paragraph-first, content-defined) on 120 pairs of adjacent Chinese and English Wikipedia revisions. Fixed-size recomputes 57-68% of the new-version workload, recursive 38-56%, content-defined 43-54%, while evidence recall at a 2048-token budget differs by under two points. The authors argue update cost should be reported alongside retrieval quality.

Thomas Decru's ePrint 2026/2595 proves a corrected version of radical isogeny formulae for every N≥4, odd and even, over fields of characteristic coprime to 2N. It settles the sign choice for even N so that 2-isogeny walks stay on the volcano surface. One radical step costs about 12.5N multiplications and one exponentiation, and the paper shows how to evaluate radical isogenies on points, so a CSIDH class group action needs no torsion point sampling.
