A Coding Implementation on Qwen 3.6-35B-A3B Covering Multimodal Inference, Thinking Control, Tool Calling, MoE Routing, RAG, and Session Persistence

In this tutorial, we build an end-to-end implementation around Qwen 3.6-35B-A3B and explore how a modern multimodal MoE model can be used in practical workflows. We begin by setting up the environment, loading the model adaptively based on available GPU memory, and creating a reusable chat framework that supports both standard responses and explicit thinking

OpenAI Scales Trusted Access for Cyber Defense With GPT-5.4-Cyber: a Fine-Tuned Model Built for Verified Security Defenders

Cybersecurity has always had a dual-use problem: the same technical knowledge that helps defenders find vulnerabilities can also help attackers exploit them. For AI systems, that tension is sharper than ever. Restrictions intended to prevent harm have historically created friction for good-faith security work, and it can be genuinely difficult to tell whether any particular
