OpenAI Warns Future AI Models Pose ‘High’ Cybersecurity Risks OpenAI has issued a stark warning that its upcoming frontier AI models could present ‘High’ level cybersecurity risks. The company stated that these advanced models might be capable of automating the discovery and exploitation of significant cyber vulnerabilities, including the development of functional zero-day exploits. To mitigate these potential threats, OpenAI is implementing a ‘defense-in-depth’ strategy. This includes training its models to refuse harmful requests while remaining useful for defensive and educational purposes. The company is also establishing a Frontier Risk Council, an advisory board of cybersecurity experts, to help manage these advanced AI risks. Furthermore, OpenAI is developing a trusted access program to provide enhanced AI capabilities to qualified cybersecurity professionals for defensive operations. ...

MIT Report: 95% of Enterprise GenAI Projects Fail to Deliver ROI A new report from MIT’s NANDA initiative reveals that a staggering 95% of enterprise generative AI pilot programs are failing to produce a significant return on investment. Despite investments totaling between $35 and $40 billion in the US, only 5% of organizations have successfully deployed AI tools into production at scale. The report, titled “The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business 2025,” is based on interviews with enterprise leaders, analysis of public AI initiatives, and a survey of business professionals. The primary reasons for failure are not a lack of infrastructure or talent, but rather the inability of AI systems to retain data, adapt, and learn over time. The study also found that purchasing AI tools from vendors and forming partnerships has a significantly higher success rate than in-house development. ...
