Artemis Security launches Orion-1, an AI to investigate and respond to corporate cyberattacks

Artemis Security has launched Orion-1, a purpose-built AI model that ingests logs from endpoints, networks, cloud services and SaaS, reconstructs attacks, assigns confidence scores, and can recommend or initiate responses; the company says Orion-1 outperformed general-purpose models like Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol on its internal Decision-Grade Readiness (DGR) benchmark. Orion-1 is in private preview; Artemis says no customer data was used for training and it is unclear whether Orion-1 was built from scratch or fine-tuned from another foundation model.

Goodfire launches internal-activation monitors on Baseten to catch rogue AI agents

Goodfire launched cheaper “inside-out” monitors that read a model’s internal activations (probes) in real time and are available to Baseten customers; in tests on Kimi K3 the probes flagged 94% of malicious hacking sessions, sent 8.7% of benign sessions for review, and monitoring ~1,500 sessions cost about $51 vs $233–$10,000 for alternative checkers. Baseten’s Base Labs had announced a safety partnership with Goodfire and Hugging Face last month, and Goodfire cites similar research from Google DeepMind informing probe-based detection in Gemini.

Reflection unveils Beam, a 501B-parameter open-weight model claiming frontier performance at lower compute

Reflection AI announced Beam, a text-only, open-weight mixture-of-experts model with 501 billion total parameters (23 billion active), a 1 million token context window, and pretraining on 23.8 trillion tokens. The startup says Beam matches top Chinese open models on advanced reasoning benchmarks while using '3–4x less inference compute,' will publish weights and full technical details this month, and is targeting enterprises and sovereign 'AI factory' deployments; the performance claims have not been independently verified.

Cohere releases North Mini Code — open-source 30B (3B active) agentic coding MoE model

Cohere has open-sourced North Mini Code, a mixture-of-experts agentic coding model sized at 30 billion parameters with 3 billion active, released under an Apache 2.0 license. The model — available on Hugging Face, OpenRouter, and Cohere's Model Vault in bf16, fp8 and w4a16 formats and compatible with OpenCode — is optimized for agentic developer workflows and reports a 33.4 score on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index, higher throughput (up to 2.8x) and ~30% better inter-token latency versus Devstral Small 2 in Cohere's tests.
