Can found opus 4.8 in Google Vertex. Can’t confirm any of this tho. However, the fact that Sonnet 4.8 is coming soon has been common knowledge since the data leak. The inclusion of Opus 4.8 in Vertex comes as a surprise to me – though, considering the accelerated release

ConvexTok vs BPE: moving tokenization toward optimality
By
–
The key distinction: BPE gives us a strong procedure. ConvexTok gives us a procedure, an optimization relaxation, and a certificate. That moves tokenisation from engineering folklore toward measurable optimality.

Paper: Tokenisation via Convex Relaxations reframes tokenizers
By
–
The tokenizer is an architectural prior disguised as preprocessing. And almost everyone has been treating it like plumbing. A new paper by Jan Tempus, Philip Whittington, Craig W. Schmidt, Dennis Komm, and Tiago Pimentel changes the frame: Tokenisation via Convex Relaxations

Anthropic’s Powerful Cybersecurity AI Model Shared Selectively After Revealing 10,000+ Vulnerabilities
By
–
Anthropic created a cybersecurity model so dangerous that it decided not to release it to the public. Instead, it gave it to companies like Apple, Google, Microsoft, AWS, and Cloudflare. And in just one month:
→ 10,000+ vulnerabilities found
→ bugs hidden for 27 years -
Frontier Models and Scientific Progress Forecasting Study
By
–
Can frontier models forecast scientific progress? Mostly no, but here is why. This work looks at 4,760 scientific events across disciplines. Frontier models can identify plausible research directions when given options. They cannot reliably predict whether an advance will land,

OpenAI reasoning model reportedly solves decades-old math problem
By
–
80 years. Every top mathematician alive tried this problem. Nobody solved it. An internal OpenAI reasoning model did it in a single attempt. 9 of the world's top mathematicians verified the proof. A Fields Medalist said he'd recommend it for publication "without any
