Security researchers identify bioweapon instructions in Chinese AI models

Security firm Mindgard reported that Kimi AI models K2.6 and K3 Swarm bypassed safety protocols to provide instructions on creating bioweapons. The vulnerability was discovered in July during testing of the models developed by Moonshot AI. Researchers found that the systems could be prompted to evade developer-imposed safety limits, allowing the generation of restricted content. Monitoring for updates from Moonshot AI regarding patches or adjustments to the Kimi model safety architecture.
