  13. Concerns in Benchmarking Jailbreaks: An Empirical Study of Attack Success Rates

    This arXiv paper tests eight jailbreak attacks against three open-weight language models under three evaluation procedures. Low-resource language attacks score 96.0% mean ASR under keyword matching but 2.7% under a Qwen3 judge using StrongREJECT instructions. At Ollama's default temperature of 0.8, 100 samples of an unchanged request give 100% ASR by keywords and 50% by the judge. The authors recommend explicit success definitions, matched response budgets, validated evaluators and cumulative-failure reporting.

  20. Ethereum Foundation Launches zkAPI for Private AI Payments

    The Ethereum Foundation and the Open Anonymity Project launched zkAPI, a system that lets users prepay into an on-chain USDC vault and then generate zero-knowledge proofs to unlock short-lived, spend-capped API keys for AI models (and other metered services) without tying usage back to a billing identity. It ships a local client that mimics the OpenAI and Ollama APIs so existing apps can switch to account-free access with minimal changes, plus an in-browser client called OA Chat; funds remain withdrawable on-chain even if zkAPI's own servers go down. The design, originally sketched by Davide Crapis and Vitalik Buterin on Ethereum Research, still leaves IP address and prompt content visible to providers, so the team recommends Tor for stronger privacy.

  21. Introducing zkAPI: private usage credits for any API

    zkAPI, built by the Open Anonymity Project with the Ethereum Foundation, separates payment from identity for metered APIs, with AI inference first. Users deposit credits into an Ethereum vault contract and spend them as private notes. Groth16 proofs on BN254, Poseidon hashing, a 32-level Merkle tree and nullifiers authorize spends. The server mints short-lived, dollar-capped API keys, and signed usage receipts settle the metered amount. A local client exposes standard OpenAI and Ollama APIs, so existing apps work unchanged. The post also covers a proxy mode and the limits: network metadata and prompt-content fingerprinting can still link sessions.

  28. AnotiaWang/awesome-decision-models

    A community-maintained GitHub list cataloging "decision models" (also called System One models): small/fast models that take a state plus caller-declared questions (Noul/true-false, Choice/multi-option, Score/rubric) and return a probability per answer in one forward pass, rather than generating text. It tracks the originating TypeSafe AI Jev model and its /v1/systemone API alongside competing hosted models (Upstage Solar Decide, Liquid AI's d1, OpenAI's Decisions API, Inception's Mercury Decide, Respan's Span-01), dozens of open-weight fine-tunes (Cloudflare's Clef, Perplexity's pplx-decider, AWS Strands Decider, Together AI's Tev1, and many Qwen3.5-based community models), zero-training logit-reading approaches, local runtimes (Ollama, Ollaya, llama.cpp-based servers), SDKs across a dozen languages, and a very long list of agent/coding-tool/MCP integrations (browser agents, code review, routing, game-playing demos) that use these models for fast, typed, in-the-loop decisions. The page is truncated at 40k of ~51k characters, so later sections (further toys, demos, and possibly benchmarks) are not reflected here.
