AI is compressing exploit timelines. The real question isn't whether your vulnerability management playbook needs to change, it's which part of it you've been getting wrong all along. The conversation happening in security circles right now goes something like this: Mythos is here. Exploit timelines are collapsing. Does the vulnerability management playbook need to change? The honest answer is
Nebula Security says a patched Firefox JIT flaw could be triggered by simply visiting a malicious webpage and was also used to compromise Tor Browser.

On-policy distillation (OPD) grounds token-level supervision in the student's own trajectory, yet suffers from prefix failure: once the student commits to a wrong reasoning direction, all subsequent generation builds on this deviation, producing misdirected continuations that elicit unreliable supervision and waste compute. We identify a teacher-student continuation asymmetry on failed prefixes, where the teacher tends to redirect while the student continues along the original direction, and convert it into a label-free handoff trigger in Relay On-Policy Distillation (Relay-OPD). During training, Relay-OPD constructs relay trajectories by letting the teacher briefly take over at detected trigger points to produce a teacher leg, after which the student resumes and is optimized on the resulting trajectory. A limited relay budget concentrates intervention on critical early positions while limiting departure from the student policy. With a Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 teacher and Qwen3-0.6B/1.7B-Non-Thinking students on eight mathematical reasoning benchmarks, Relay-OPD achieves the best or second-best results on every benchmark, outperforming standard OPD by +5.73% and the strongest baseline FastOPD by +1.49% on average for 1.7B, with consistent gains at 0.6B. Training trajectory length is reduced by over 50%.
Generalist manipulation policies increasingly take the form of action-chunking flow policies built on large pretrained backbones. Such chunks run open-loop, so the policy cannot react to sensory input arriving mid-execution, sacrificing \emph{reactivity}. Replanning more often would restore it, but the perception-to-action pipeline (a large backbone plus multiple denoising steps) is too slow: this \emph{latency} forbids frequent replanning and leaves committed actions stale, making such policies ill-suited for dynamic, closed-loop control. We present $π\mathbf{R}^2$, which makes these policies reactive and real-time while retaining large backbones, expressive multi-modal policies, and multi-action prediction. Built on the per-position noise schedule of diffusion forcing, $π\mathbf{R}^2$ contributes two ideas. First, it splits conditioning into a fast channel (proprioception, fresh every tick) and an asynchronously updated slow channel (vision-language features), so the policy reacts to proprioception within a chunk while tolerating stale vision. Second, a latency-adaptive flow schedule treats in-flight actions as inpainting conditioning and emits actions in one denoising step per call, letting one trained model adapt to varying hardware latency. Requiring minimal modification to existing architectures, $π\mathbf{R}^2$ can be finetuned from a pretrained policy: applied to GR00T-N1.7 on a real xArm6+XHand platform, it replans closed-loop roughly $4\times$ faster than the base policy (~$25$Hz on an A5000 GPU), acting on a fresh observation every $40$ms. Across simulation and real-world manipulation tasks, $π\mathbf{R}^2$ improves the success rate by up to $23\%$ in simulation and $30\%$ in the real world over the strongest baseline.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) variants of Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) route every token to a fixed number of experts $k$. Tokens differ in how uncertain the model is about them, so a single k over-spends on easy tokens and under-serves hard ones. We observe that the router's output distribution is already a per-token uncertainty signal: peaked mass indicates confidence, while a flat distribution indicates ambiguity. We introduce CARE (Confidence-Adaptive Routing of Experts), which admits experts in a nucleus fashion. Experts are activated in decreasing router weight until their cumulative mass reaches a threshold, with a small extension when the admitted experts disagree. A budget thermostat calibrates the threshold so that the average number of active experts matches any target. CARE is a drop-in, single-forward-pass rule with no extra parameters. Across eight commonsense benchmarks on LLaMA-3.1-8B and Qwen2.5-7B, as well as math, code, and knowledge tasks, CARE improves over fixed top-k MoE-LoRA at matched compute and matches the fixed-k=4 baseline while activating fewer experts. The same confidence and disagreement signals also improve out-of-distribution detection over MSP, entropy, and multi-pass proxies. We support the design with nucleus fidelity, budget optimality, and an epistemic reading of disagreement, and we release code.

Scientists have long wondered whether loud, human-caused noise interferes with wild animals' cognition—their ability to think and learn—by causing stress, distraction or making it harder for them to focus. The results of a novel study of eastern bluebirds conducted by a team of researchers at Penn State suggest that, at least in some cases, short-term noise doesn't affect them much.

You know that feeling when you look at something and immediately think, "Why would anyone make this?" Then you take a second look and realize it was actually made incredibly well. That's what makes these creations so entertaining. The ideas behind them might be bizarre, impractical, or just plain ugly, but the people who made them clearly knew what they were doing. You may never want one in your home or on your body, but it's impossible not to respect the amount of skill that went into making them.

They will focus on protecting houses, protecting a business, a company, because this is something that matters for all our society. And indeed, sometimes by focusing on that, they cannot extinguish fire, [as] they would do it if it would be just forest. So this is new, this is worrying. And of course also, this means that we need to adapt our methods of fighting the fires. ” Continue reading...

Don’t pour it down the sink. This subtly tangy liquid is naturally acidic, adding flavour and fluffiness to your baking Mozzarella comes in a bag or pot surrounded by whey or brine. This is known as latticello in Italy, and has all the flavour of the cheese and more – it’s lactic, sour and subtly sweet, with a powerful, salty, umami-rich depth of flavour. It’s delicious as a drink in it’s own right, but it’s also great to cook with. It can be used instead of buttermilk or yoghurt in marinades, even though it has less viscosity than both, and in baking. I’ve included the mozzarella itself in today’s recipe, but it is entirely optional and could easily be saved for another recipe. Continue reading...
