    Google tells schools that no AI means no Search

    Schools can now refuse Google's AI, at a price few of them can pay. After complaints that it switched on its Gemini chatbot for many pupils in August, Google said on Tuesday that its AI tools will stay off for school accounts from next year until an administrator turns them on. Search falls under the same rule, and a school that bans AI entirely loses it, because "Search and AI are deeply integrated", says Google's education chief. Google insists schools are in control, but has not said whether Search can run without AI. I expect other software suppliers to try the same bundle, so check what your contracts let you switch off.

    The record Binance theft began with a fake job offer and ran through an internal AI tool

    Binance calls last week's record crypto theft a sophisticated campaign, yet its account begins with something any company could face: a fake job offer. Attackers, whom the FBI links to North Korea, posed as recruiters and gave an engineer a coding test hiding malware. From that laptop they used an internal AI tool to reach colleagues' machines, and eventually the system that approves payments. The exchange, the largest in crypto, puts the damage at 6.3 billion dollars. It reports no flaw in the AI model, though an independent review is still to come. I would want to know what our own AI assistants could reach with someone else at the keyboard.

    Revolut says a free Chinese model cut its AI coding bill by 90 percent

    Rising AI bills look like the price of keeping up, unless you run the model yourself, as Revolut, the British banking app, now does. About 2,000 of its engineers write code by default with GLM, a Chinese model anyone can download free, on servers Revolut controls. Its infrastructure lead told a conference that this costs about a tenth of Anthropic's and OpenAI's tools. Those are Revolut's figures, with staff left out, and premium models still handle some jobs. Unlike the schools in the Google story, Revolut can say no to a supplier. Few smaller firms have the engineers to copy it, but the option is worth raising at your next contract renewal.

    OpenAI says its AI designed a talking gadget in under a week

    Hardware has so far looked safer from AI than software. Two OpenAI employees wanted a small gadget for talking to the company's coding assistant. As a side project, they had GPT-6 Astra, OpenAI's top model, design the casing, the circuit board and the software inside, in under a week by OpenAI's count. A contract factory then built prototypes in under a month, and the design needed several rounds of corrections, because the model did not always allow for how things get manufactured. OpenAI reportedly plans a device of its own, so it has every reason to tell this story well. Whether that counts as fast is a question for your own engineers.

    Huawei reportedly tells AI chip buyers to find their own memory

    Memory may be the weak spot in China's plan to live without American chips. The Information alone reports that Huawei, China's answer to Nvidia, is telling some customers to find the fast memory for its AI chips themselves. Its Chinese suppliers cannot make enough, and export rules block purchases from the Korean companies dominating the market. Smugglers fill part of the gap, and one broker in Shenzhen says a memory unit has gone from a few hundred dollars to about 4,000 in a year. If the Revolut story tempts you towards cheap Chinese models, note what the next generation may run short of.
