OpenAI and Broadcom unveil LLM-optimized inference chip Jalapeño

OpenAI and Broadcom unveiled Jalapeño, a custom LLM inference chip designed from scratch with substantially better performance per watt than current accelerators. Taped out in nine months using OpenAI's own models to accelerate chip design, it will deploy at gigawatt scale starting in 2026 as part of a multi-generation platform.

NVIDIA NeMo AutoModel: 3.7x Faster MoE Fine-Tuning with One Import Change

NVIDIA NeMo AutoModel delivers 3.4-3.7x higher training throughput and 29-32% less GPU memory for MoE fine-tuning through a single import line change. By adding Expert Parallelism as a dedicated dimension, DeepEP fused dispatch, and TransformerEngine kernels on top of Transformers v5, it makes 550B-scale full fine-tuning feasible and produces standard HF checkpoints for downstream deployment.

Local Model Triage for OpenClaw: Real-Time, Cost-Free PR Classification

If you own a powerful local machine like the NVIDIA GB10, using models like gemma-4-26b-a4b or qwen3.6-35b-a3b in an agent harness can give you real-time, cost-free triage of open-source contributions. The article provides concrete numbers on precision, recall, and throughput tradeoffs, plus a practical hybrid architecture that uses a cheap cloud audit loop ($9/month) to catch misses.

AI Security After Codex and Claude Code: New Vulnerabilities and Guardrails

This episode from Gray Swan's cofounders explains why AI agents create a new class of security vulnerabilities that traditional cybersecurity cannot solve. Essential for engineers deploying Codex, Claude Code, or similar agents — prompt injection, automated red-teaming, and the lethal trifecta are must-understand concepts.
