Aleph Alpha releases Kolibri, a 78B English-German MoE, under Apache 2.0

Aleph Alpha published Kolibri, a 78B-parameter English and German mixture-of-experts model, under Apache 2.0 with about 3.46B parameters active per token. Teams that cannot send prompts to outside servers can host it themselves if they pay for the GPUs.

Newer AI models caught less fraud in Coinbase's replay of 16,140 real transactions

Coinbase replayed 16,140 real transactions and found each newer version of three AI model families caught less fraud than the one it would replace. The result undercuts the idea that a model upgrade is a free improvement for a working fraud screener.

A rerun of the same SWE-bench task can consume 30 times the tokens

A study of eight frontier models on SWE-bench Verified puts agentic coding at roughly 1,000 times the token cost of code chat, dominated by input, with the models' own pre-run estimates correlating no better than 0.39.

A dev.to engineer reviews greenfield code hardest because agents lack prior art to follow

A dev.to post makes a statistical case for reading your own code, since agents reproduce whatever pattern already dominates the repo, and its author goes hands-on in greenfield work while easing off once conventions are established.

Anthropic prices its newer Sonnet a third below Sonnet 4.5

Sonnet 4.5 still leads GPT-5 on the coding leaderboards, and GPT-5 lists about 46 percent below it on a 5:1 token mix. Anthropic's current Sonnet undercuts both of Sonnet 4.5's list prices, and that complicates a routing plan built on the older pair.

Bench scientists put the bioweapon bottleneck in the wet lab

Frontier labs are citing AI-designed bioweapons to argue for new controls on synthetic DNA. Researchers who run labs told WIRED the hard part is assembling and verifying a virus, and that no fully autonomous lab exists.

Measuring each patch against the human fix on the same bug leaves 13 of 14 models messier

The study counts only complexity and dead code, because those are the two pyscn metrics that stay exact when you analyze just the files a patch touched. The human's own commit trips the same rule 24% of the time.

Co-Scientist checks every number in its manuscript against the code's execution log
