It is expected that in the third quarter, optimized AI hardware solutions combined with Dell PowerEdge servers and RH...

Researcher Naphtali Deutsch discovered that hundreds of open-source large language model (LLM) building servers and dozens of vector databases are leaking large amounts of sensitive information. This problem arises from companies neglecting the security of related tools in their haste to integrate AI into their workflows. By hacking into 438 Flowise servers, he revealed stored sensitive data, including GitHub access tokens, OpenAI API keys, Flowise passwords, and API keys. Additionally, he found...

OpenAI is facing a loss of up to $5 billion this year, primarily due to the high costs associated with running ChatGPT and other AI products. Major expenditures include nearly $4 billion for renting Microsoft servers and $3 billion for training and updating AI models. Labor costs account for $1.5 billion, reflecting the company's significant salary increases to attract and retain talent. In the face of massive losses and fierce competition, the profitability prospects for OpenAI are under scrutiny, especially as competitors offer similar technology for free.
