Alibaba Security team collaborated with Indiana University to discover a new macOS/iOS security threat: sending malformed X.509 certificates via 'banana emails' can cause system crashes. The research identified 18 new vulnerabilities and 12 known vulnerabilities in six mainstream cryptographic libraries, which can exhaust system resources. The team developed the X.509DoSTool detection tool and proposed mitigation solutions. This work has been nominated for the USENIX Security'25 conference. The study reminds users to be cautious of such availability attacks, and developers should strengthen certificate validation.

Amazon Cloud Technology Shanghai AI Research Institute announced its disbandment on July 23. This institute was the last overseas research institute of AWS. Chief Applied Scientist Wang Minjie confirmed the news on his Moments and reflected on her six-year leadership experience. An Amazon spokesperson stated that this was a personnel reduction decision based on organizational evaluation and strategic adjustments, aiming to optimize resource investment in innovation. The news has attracted widespread attention in the industry.

Recent research questions the mathematical ability of Alibaba's Qwen2.5 model, suggesting that its high scores may stem from data memorization rather than genuine reasoning. Tests show that Qwen2.5's performance drops sharply on previously unseen clean benchmarks; however, it can accurately reconstruct 60% of known questions, indicating training data contamination. The completion rate in the new LiveMathBench test dropped to zero. The study warns that contaminated benchmarks can mislead AI progress evaluation and emphasizes the need for clean benchmarks and multi-model validation. This finding raises doubts about the effectiveness of current AI evaluation methods and highlights the issue.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang met with MiniMax founder Yan Junjie in Beijing, praising China's AI innovation. MiniMax, founded just two years ago, has made breakthroughs including the open-source M1 model, Hailuo02 video tool, and $300M funding at $4B valuation. The meeting highlights potential for US-China tech collaboration.....

Mistral AI's chatbot Le Chat has received a major update with five core features now available: 1) Deep Research mode that intelligently breaks down complex questions and generates structured reports; 2) Voice input feature based on the Voxtral model for natural conversation; 3) Thinking mode using the Magistral model to handle complex reasoning; 4) A text-to-image modification feature developed in collaboration with the Black Forest Lab; 5) New project management tools to organize conversations and files. These features are now available on both web and mobile platforms, significantly enhancing AI capabilities.

On July 15, Mita AI Search announced the completion of a new iteration of its 'Deep Research' module and its official public beta launch, becoming the first search service in China that is freely open to the public and features multi-turn reasoning chain visualization. The upgraded system adopts a segmented reinforcement learning strategy, breaking down the originally computationally intensive 'Deep Research' tasks into multiple sub-tasks, maintaining result accuracy while reducing operational costs to a level that allows for public free access. It performs particularly well in retrieving and reasoning with Chinese corpus.

Researchers found 'InfoFlood', a new AI attack method that bypasses chatbot defenses by flooding excessive information with fake citations, disrupting AI judgment. This exposes vulnerabilities in current safety filters.....

Microsoft has released the public preview of Deep Research, a new service called Azure AI Foundry. This service functions as a research assistant similar to OpenAI agents. It can automatically break down complex tasks, perform multi-turn information retrieval and verification using Bing search and GPT models, and generate audit-able research reports. The service is applicable to fields such as academia, finance, and healthcare, and supports API integration, significantly improving research efficiency. Applications are now open, and developers can integrate its automation capabilities into their own applications.

Microsoft launches the Deep Research research tool, which integrates Bing search and OpenAI technology to automate research. The tool uses the core technology o3-deep-research, with a workflow that includes four key steps: first, interacting with GPT-4o/4.1 to clarify user requirements; second, calling Bing to retrieve the latest data; third, performing intelligent analysis and reasoning; finally, generating a structured report containing answers, reasoning process, cited sources, and clarification records. The tool supports integration with Azure AI
