Can a Small Language Model Predict Kernel Latency, Memory, and Model Accuracy from Code? A New Regression Language Model (RLM) Says Yes

Can a Small Language Model Predict Kernel Latency, Memory, and Model Accuracy from Code? A New Regression Language Model (RLM) Says Yes

Researchers from Cornell and Google introduce a unified Regression Language Model (RLM) that predicts numeric outcomes directly from code strings—covering GPU kernel latency, program memory usage, and even neural network accuracy and latency—without hand-engineered features. A 300M-parameter encoder–decoder initialized from T5-Gemma achieves strong rank correlations across heterogeneous tasks and languages,…

The Role of Model Context Protocol (MCP) in Generative AI Security and Red Teaming

The Role of Model Context Protocol (MCP) in Generative AI Security and Red Teaming

Overview Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open, JSON-RPC–based standard that formalizes how AI clients (assistants, IDEs, web apps) connect to servers exposing three primitives—tools, resources, and prompts—over defined transports (primarily stdio for local and Streamable HTTP for remote). MCP’s value for security work is that it renders agent/tool interactions explicit and auditable, with normative…

The Latest Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite Preview is Now the Fastest Proprietary Model (External Tests) and 50% Fewer Output Tokens

The Latest Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite Preview is Now the Fastest Proprietary Model (External Tests) and 50% Fewer Output Tokens

Google released an updated version of Gemini 2.5 Flash and Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite preview models across AI Studio and Vertex AI, plus rolling aliases—gemini-flash-latest and gemini-flash-lite-latest—that always point to the newest preview in each family. For production stability, Google advises pinning fixed strings (gemini-2.5-flash, gemini-2.5-flash-lite). Google will give a two-week…

Positive vs. negative security: Choosing an AppSec model | TechTarget

Positive vs. negative security: Choosing an AppSec model | TechTarget

An effective application security model is essential to protecting apps from threats and vulnerabilities. Two common models are positive security and negative security. While both approaches secure applications, they do so in different ways. In general, positive security models only allow approved traffic and actions and deny other requests, and negative security models block…

Baidu Releases ERNIE-4.5-21B-A3B-Thinking: A Compact MoE Model for Deep Reasoning

Baidu Releases ERNIE-4.5-21B-A3B-Thinking: A Compact MoE Model for Deep Reasoning

Baidu AI Research team has just released ERNIE-4.5-21B-A3B-Thinking, a new reasoning-focused large language model designed around efficiency, long-context reasoning, and tool integration. Being part of the ERNIE-4.5 family, this model is a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 21B total parameters but only 3B active parameters per token, making it computationally efficient while maintaining competitive reasoning capability….

Australia’s Large Language Model Landscape: Technical Assessment

Australia’s Large Language Model Landscape: Technical Assessment

Key Points No flagship, globally competitive, locally developed LLM (such as GPT-4, Claude 3.5, LLaMA 3.1) has yet emerged from Australia. Australian research and commerce currently rely primarily on international LLMs, which are frequently used but have measurable limitations on Australian English and cultural context. Kangaroo LLM is the only major open-source, locally developed LLM…
