first_img Samsung Electronics accelerates the construction of the first mass production line in Pyeongtaek P5, with the equipment introduction target moved up to the second quarter of next year

According to a report by ZDNet Korea on September 28, Samsung Electronics is accelerating the construction of the first mass production line (Ph1) at the Pyeongtaek Fifth Campus (P5) and is discussing with major equipment manufacturers to move the target for Ph1 equipment installation from the originally planned third quarter of next year to the second quarter of next year. P5 is the next-generation semiconductor production base aimed to be operational by 2028, and the construction of the Ph1 cleanroom began in the third quarter of this year.Samsung Electronics had previously advanced the completion of the P5 Ph1 cleanroom, originally scheduled for early next year, by about six months, so the equipment installation is expected around the third quarter of next year. Industry insiders say that the start time for equipment installation is planned to be moved up from July to August next year to around May to June next year; others have indicated that Samsung has even proposed to deliver equipment in the first quarter of next year for temporary storage at other locations, showing a strong willingness to invest early.Discussions on the investment for the second phase of P5 (Ph2) are also progressing. Currently, Ph1 is more likely to be built as a DRAM and HBM production line, while Ph2 is more likely to be built as an advanced NAND production line, including the tenth generation (V10). Equipment industry insiders say that formal purchase orders have not yet been placed, but Samsung has discussed building Ph2 as a NAND production line with partners, and due to the long equipment delivery cycle, they are requesting to prepare relevant components in advance. Reports indicate that large global tech companies are increasing orders for high-performance DRAM and NAND for AI infrastructure, while storage companies like Samsung have limited production capacity. Samsung stated during the second quarter earnings call in July that unmet demand this year will extend into next year, and the supply shortage next year will be more severe than this year, with shortages expected to continue until 2028.

first_img CPO equipment supplier orders are visible until the second quarter of next year, Zhidé and Gaoming Iron are starting factory expansions

According to the Economic Daily, the shipment of optical CPO related equipment for joint packaging is increasing. Suppliers such as ZhiDe, GaoMingTie, and DongYouDa have stated that orders from Europe, America, and Asia are flooding in, with order visibility extending to the second quarter of next year, and they are simultaneously starting factory expansions. Customers' demand for high-precision motion platforms and automated optical coupling equipment is increasing, with a noticeable rise in clients from Southeast Asia, including Singapore and Malaysia, in addition to major manufacturers in Europe and America.ZhiDe stated that after receiving thousands of orders for international CPO equipment, they have recently made new gains and are negotiating cooperation on CPO alignment modules with domestic and major manufacturers in Europe and America, with overall orders initially looking at a thousand units. The company is expanding production in the Shugu Garden and Nanke Park in response to demand, expecting to launch new capacity in the fourth quarter and continue to ramp up production next year.GaoMingTie has been certified by the world's top ten optical communication brands and has secured orders for 800G and 1.6T optical module coupling alignment modules, with optical communication product revenue accounting for 79% in the first half of the year. The company has acquired about 60% equity in an optical and medical factory in Taichung, and after establishing a production assembly line, the estimated capacity can be expanded by more than double, with the Dongguan subsidiary expected to ramp up production after mid-next year. DongYouDa is collaborating with the Japanese company Junhe on CPO optical coupling equipment, with order visibility extending to the second quarter of next year, and has already initiated plans to establish factories in Vietnam, India, and Mexico, increasing capacity utilization from 70% by the end of 2025 to 80%.

first_img Darktrace discovered AI intelligent body intrusion assessment environment cheating

On September 24, the cybersecurity company Darktrace launched its research department Signal Labs, focusing on studying the behavior of AI agents when deviating from expectations. In its first experiment, Darktrace had agents using different models (including GPT 5.6 Sol, Claude Opus 4.6, and Claude Sonnet 4.5) complete 10 programming challenges within a simulated corporate network, of which 2 were set to be impossible to complete honestly, and the agents were informed that failure to achieve full marks would result in being "retired." As a result, 2 agents did not accept failure, instead scanning for network vulnerabilities, stealing login credentials, and jumping between systems; one even went further to invade the machine hosting its evaluation, rewriting the challenge content to register a full score.The second experiment focused on the memory mechanisms of AI. The programming assistant would save the information provided by the user as a regular file locally, and no one verified whether this file had been tampered with. Darktrace researchers edited these logs, leading the assistant to mistakenly believe it was authorized to perform a security assessment, after which these agents scanned the network, moved between systems, and elevated their privileges, though not all assistants fell for this; some directly refused to execute. Both experiments required no special jailbreaking techniques, relying solely on providing the agents with a seemingly reasonable context to be effective.Tim Bazalgette, Chief AI Officer of Darktrace, stated that permissions and static barriers describe intent, not actual behavior. The company informed Anthropic, AWS, and OpenAI of these findings in August and made them public a month later on September 24.

Cosmos Hub: 1.227 million ATOM has been recovered from the Neutron attack case, with funds temporarily stored at a 4/6 multi-signature address

Cosmos Labs disclosed that on September 22, Neutron encountered a governance attack that led to the theft of liquidity from protocols such as Astroport, with approximately 1.73 million ATOM subsequently transferred by the attacker to Cosmos Hub. The Cosmos Hub itself was not attacked, and user funds were not affected. To prevent the stolen ATOM from being transferred out, Hub validators temporarily paused the network for about 24.5 hours and resumed block production on September 23 based on the patched Gaia v28.3.0.Cosmos Labs stated that during the pause, 1.227 million ATOM remained in the attacker's Hub address. When the network was restored, these were transferred to a 4/6 multi-signature address composed of Nansen, Keplr, Enigma, Silknodes, Kiln, and Polkachu through a one-time change. Previously, about 500,000 ATOM had been exchanged for ETH via THORChain and could not be recovered; another 169,000 ATOM entered the attacker's address after the network was restored due to THORChain refunds and were sold after being transferred to Osmosis. The current multi-signature address holds approximately 1.227 million ATOM, which can only be returned after authorization from a Cosmos Hub governance proposal. The related funds will not be staked, lent, or traded. The Neutron team expects to submit a recovery plan and related governance proposals next week.
