LLM 0.37 is a release of Simon Willison's LLM CLI tool and Python library, covering about two months of changes. It adds gpt-6.1-sol and gpt-6.1-terra, a new `llm openai endpoint add` command for OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and a cheaper default model, gpt-6-luna. Embeddings now accept differing content types, as Gemini Embedding 2 needs. Willison says AI-assisted PRs from 12 authors were easy to review.

Training activation classifiers for safety and alignment describes how OpenAI trains lightweight probes on a model's residual stream activations to flag misaligned or policy-violating completions. Probes use an MLP plus QV-attention architecture with an exponential moving average and a rolling softmax objective. They run in streaming mode on the inference engine, have run on all assistant completions since GPT-5.6, and transfer well across post-training checkpoints but less across pre-training checkpoints.

Bankless news report on Binance reopening withdrawals in phases on 1 November 2026 after a record $6B+ hack. The FBI named North Korea's TraderTraitor group on 31 October, listed 628 addresses tied to the theft and asked THORChain node operators, instant exchanges and DeFi services to block them. Chainalysis says $500M moved out of TRON wallets and funds are shifting to Solana. Binance published a new proof of reserves covering 10 tokens.
