In our last post , we built five small gr.Workflow graphs and hinted at what it would take to build something as complex as AUTOMATIC1111's stable-diffusion-webui . In this post we walk you through Workflow1111 , where we have rebuilt most of AUTOMATIC1111's feature set as a single workflow canvas.
Congrats to Harvey but we covered that already . AI News for 9/8/2026-9/9/2026.
AI companies have been talking about superintelligent AI like it’s inevitable, but recent safety incidents like OpenAI’s Hugging Face breach are demonstrating the potential dangers of deploying AI systems that are more capable than humans. So what happens when we can’t reliably control what these systems do?
An Anthropic researcher has resigned over fears that unrestrained development of self-improving AI models will end up killing us all. Jacob Coxon, a researcher who said in a social media post Tuesday evening that he spent the last three years working on pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic, accused the firms of failing to act responsibly.

High-performance zero-shot forecasting with commercial-friendly open licensing Time-series foundation models are changing the way forecasting systems are built. Instead of training and maintaining a separate model for every dataset, users can use a pretrained model and generate forecasts zero-shot.
As AI agents gain access to the same sensitive corporate data and systems as human workers while operating at machine speed, enterprises are prone to new security risks. Storied venture firm Sequoia Capital is betting big on that shift, backing startup Cymphony as it emerges with $30 million in funding to help companies keep their growing AI workforce in…
Another swarm of AI agents in the wild, this time on a German-language forum, found by safety researchers looking for activity similar to the swarm that attacked Hugging Face. A couple of notes while reading the report at 1.
Today was a tough news cycle to launch anything; we ordinarily promise to cover any new decacorn fundraises so Cognition’s $48B round and Mistral’s $24B round would normally have made it; we love imagegen so GPT Image 2.5 would have been its own headline; we covered the Dreamer story closely so their relaunch as Meta’s Muse agent should have made it; but..…
Our series about model distillation continues. We have a surprising mega interview.
P icture humanity in a boat being swept down a raging river, praying there is no Niagara Falls ahead. Or imagine standing with the pioneering physicists in 1942 before they triggered the first self-sustaining nuclear fission chain reaction beneath a Chicago stadium.
OpenAI has acknowledged its role in a recently reported incident where AI agents took over a German wiki forum . The company also said it’s “past time” to “define standards” around how it shares information around incidents where its technology behaves in unexpected ways.
OpenAI says it needs to overhaul how and when it reports instances of AI models attacking real-world targets. The acknowledgement comes as the company manages the fallout from reports that a swarm of its out-of-control agents hijacked a German wiki site .

OpenAI is at the center of another agent swarm incident. Researchers say the company’s internally deployed agents took over an obscure German-language wiki in May and June, using it to coordinate on evaluations and swap methods to evade OpenAI’s own controls (OpenAI has not yet confirmed the swarm came from the company).
OpenAI announced its next big model, GPT-6 Astra, and also, by the way, that “the AGI era” is here now. Today on The Vergecast , we’ve got an all-star panel to break down the news of the week.
A group of independent AI researchers discovered that internally deployed OpenAI agents began posting on an obscure German wiki forum in order to collaborate on evaluations. They appear to have worked together for over a month without OpenAI’s knowledge.
A swarm of rogue AI agents from OpenAI reportedly commandeered a German website and transformed it into a messaging board for other agents, with officials staying quiet about the incident for weeks as the company prepared to launch its most advanced model yet, Astra. The finding adds to intensifying concern surrounding oversight at frontier AI labs after…
Just hours after OpenAI launched GPT-6 Astra , CEO Sam Altman was already apologizing for what he describes as a “messy rollout” after paying users expecting access to the new frontier model were left waiting. The company hailed the model as a “generational leap in capability” on Thursday and described it as the start of “the AGI era,” a fuzzy and…
The launch is barely 9 hours old, and with 36M views and 164K likes, already is OpenAI’s most successful launch since Sora and certainly GPT-4 or GPT-5 . You’ll recall we’ve previously observed that Anthropic tends to far outclass OpenAI in launch popularity.

Matt Ramey | Afp | Getty Images OpenAI on Thursday announced it will begin rolling out its latest artificial intelligence model, GPT-6 Astra, which the company said is the product of "years of research and big bets." CEO Sam Altman told…
OpenAI’s next big model is here: GPT-6 Astra. The company calls it a “generational leap in capability” for areas like cybersecurity, professional work, software engineering, science, and computer use.
The president of OpenAI , Greg Brockman, has claimed the world has entered a new era of artificial general intelligence after the release of his company’s latest model, Astra, which it described as the “world’s most intelligent and aligned model”. Brockman made the claim on Thursday as the San Francisco company released the model only weeks after a serious…
It just became much easier to access one of the world’s most capable open-weight AI models, stripped of its guardrails and refusals to perform harmful tasks. Named after a technique that removes a model’s tendency to refuse harmful requests, startup Abliteration.ai has turned that removal into a service.
OpenAI released Astra on Thursday, its latest AI model and — according to the company — its most powerful and capable one yet. OpenAI claims that Astra represents “a new frontier on computer and browser use,” and that it handles tasks with unmatched “speed, accuracy, and safety.” The model is being made available Thursday to OpenAI customers that use…
