More →OpenAI's head of safety resigns, saying the company's culture has "broken down"
According to CoinWorld news, David Robinson, OpenAI's head of safety, has resigned due to a "broken" company culture. Over the past three and a half years, he was responsible for safety reports on 12 major model releases and published an article in The Atlantic criticizing the company's culture of relying on trial and error. Robinson's resignation came shortly after OpenAI fired three safety-related employees for improperly handling sensitive information. Robinson pointed out that OpenAI's "iterative deployment" model becomes more dangerous as AI systems gain greater autonomy, because failures can become more severe before the company has time to correct them. He suggested that frontier AI labs should, like nuclear power plants or busy airports, design multiple layers of redundancy to prevent individual errors from escalating into major failures.
Prime Intellect's inference platform goes live: nearly 1 trillion tokens processed internally per day
CoinWorld news: The Prime Intellect inference platform has officially launched, processing nearly 1 trillion tokens internally per day. The platform has released an open-source model inference service, Prime Inference, allowing users to call models on demand and supporting compute locking for long-term stable operation. The interface is compatible with the OpenAI API, and the first publicly deployed model is glm-5.3. Since January of this year, Prime Intellect has been running large-scale deployments for customers, focusing on optimizing long-context workloads for agents. In testing, it reduced p90 inter-token latency by nearly 40%. At the same time, Prime Intellect compressed the KV cache, increasing the number of tokens each decoder can cache under the same VRAM from 1.09 million to 1.63 million, an improvement of about 50%.
Microsoft's X account with 13M followers was hacked to promote a Clippy token.

Europe's open-source model Kolibri is here: 3.46B activated parameters, supporting 1M context.
According to news from Bijie, Aleph Alpha has released and open-sourced an English-German bilingual model named Kolibri. The model adopts a MoE architecture, with a total of 78.1 billion parameters, but only about 3.46 billion parameters are activated per token. The weights have been uploaded to Hugging Face under the Apache 2.0 license. Kolibri supports tool calling and adjustable reasoning modes, with context extensible up to about 1 million tokens, and the official recommendation is to keep daily deployment within 262,000 tokens. According to Aleph Alpha's official evaluation, Kolibri scored 96.9% on AIME 2025 and 85.9% on LiveCodeBench V6. Its combined English-German performance is slightly higher than that of Qwen3.5 35B-A3B, which also has about 3B activated parameters, but still lower than the fully activated 27B Qwen3.8.

Apple's new CEO Ternus takes direct control of design upon taking office, with a dense slate of new product launches in October to offset slowing services business.
According to news from Bijie, Apple's new CEO Ternus took direct control of design upon taking office, intensively launching new products in October to hedge against slowing services business. Tech journalist Mark Gurman reported in his column that John Ternus, who succeeded Tim Cook as Apple CEO, has devoted a great deal of energy to product and design work within weeks of taking office, personally serving as the final decision-maker for the company's design. The report said that Ternus, who comes from a hardware engineering background, is handing over finance and supply chain responsibilities to CFO Kevan Parekh and COO Sabih Khan respectively, while he himself frequently joins the industrial design and human interface teams, visiting the design studio multiple times a week, in sharp contrast to the Cook era's at most one-hour visit per month. Gurman learned that Apple did not look externally for a chief design officer, and Ternus has in effect chosen himself for the role.
Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $134 million in the first week of October.
Data from Bijie: October's "uptober" got off to a good start, with U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracting $134.4 million in net inflows in the first week, including $102.7 million on Thursday and another $31.7 million on Friday. Although ETF outflows of $148.7 million at the end of September interrupted a nine-day inflow streak, September was still the second-best month since October 2025, with net inflows reaching $2.65 billion. According to Algoz analyst Stephen Wundke, over the past decade, Bitcoin has averaged an 18% gain in October. In addition, Friday's employment report showed that the U.S. added only 29,000 jobs in September, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, which eased pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates and is usually favorable for risk assets such as Bitcoin.

A fourth oil tanker was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, with oil flows recovering to 98%.
Data from Bijie Network: Although the fourth oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz was attacked recently, Middle East crude oil exports have recovered to about 98% of the pre-war level. On October 4, an oil tanker passing through Hormuz was hit by an unidentified object, causing damage to the engine room, but all crew members were safe and no environmental impact was found. JPMorgan estimates that Middle East crude oil shipments have rebounded to about 17.5 million barrels per day, and the flow of oil through Hormuz has also recovered significantly. Recently, oil prices have fallen due to improved supply. The price of Brent crude oil has dropped to about $102.59 per barrel. Although it is still higher than the pre-war level, there is still a significant geopolitical premium in the market.
