France suffered several cyberattacks against key public services such as the Directorate General of Public Finances, France Travail, the Ministry of National Education and the Ministry of Housing website during the summer.

OpenAI began deploying GPT-6 Astra on Thursday, billed as its most powerful AI model, capable of using a computer alone and accompanied by an automatic shutdown feature. Initially reserved for a limited number of organizations, it will be open to paid ChatGPT subscribers and developers in the coming days. GPT-6 reaches the highest risk level in OpenAI's cybersecurity scorecard, being able to hack protected systems on its own. Its sensitive functions are reserved for cyber defense specialists with automatic monitoring that can interrupt user tasks. Anthropic also offers its Mythos model, capable of autonomous hacking, with a restricted Fable version open to the public since June. The president of OpenAI, Greg Brockman, was confident in the face of competition from low-cost open models, particularly from China, believing that the price per task matters more than the price of the token, and personally considering that it was not unreasonable to see the technology enter the AGI era.
