OpenAI's Deep Research

OpenAI has introduced "Deep Research," an autonomous research agent within ChatGPT capable of performing multi-step research by synthesizing vast online sources. It is powered by an optimized version of the upcoming OpenAI o3 model.


A new paper from the Anthropic Safeguards Research Team describes a method that defends AI models against universal jailbreaks. A prototype version of the method was robust to thousands of hours of human red teaming for universal jailbreaks, albeit with high over-refusal rates and compute overhead. An updated version achieved similar robustness on synthetic evaluations and did so with a 0.38% increase in refusal rates and moderate additional compute costs.


OpenAI plans a $500 billion investment in "Stargate," a project aimed at creating AI infrastructure, while economists debate the job-creation claim as automation may perform most computer-based tasks. DeepSeek has made significant advances with self-improving reinforcement learning, potentially leading to rapid AI capability improvements. This underscores China's quick progress in AI, highlighting geopolitical stakes in the technology race.

AI haters build tarpits to trap and trick AI scrapers that ignore robots.txt

Nepenthes is a tarpit malware designed to trap and poison AI web crawlers that ignore robots.txt rules. The release of Nepenthes has inspired other tools like Iocaine that aim to hinder AI data collection and impact the industry financially.


DeepSeek, a Chinese AI lab, leveraged tens of thousands of NVIDIA H100 GPUs to develop its R1 model, which competes with top AI models like OpenAI's o1 and Meta's Llama.
