Google launched its latest frontier AI model late last month, named Gemini 4 Carbon, with agentic and enhanced cybersecurity capabilities. The AI model was released just two weeks after the Mountain View-based tech giant released Gemini 4 Argon, another AI model with agentic capabilities. During the announcement, Google published multiple benchmark results to showcase the capabilities of the Gemini 4 Carbon. Now, SemiAnalysis has published results from its new GDPx benchmark that tests the agentic capabilities and cost efficiency of AI models, comparing results of multiple models. On the benchmarking platform, Google's frontier AI model came in second position, while being the most cost-efficient among the top five.

OpenAI is working with security firm Cathedral to find weaknesses in its systems. Researchers from both teams will use OpenAI's AI models to test its defences and check whether potential fixes work. The company is also raising rewards for critical vulnerabilities reported through its Security Bug Bounty programme by more than four times. The latest exercise follows an earlier round of security testing in which OpenAI assigned 25 percent of its product engineers to finding and fixing vulnerabilities.

You can learn a lot from a great founder session. But sometimes the conversation that changes what you do next happens five minutes after the session ends. And with the event happening tomorrow, there is another reason to make sure you are in the room: The format is designed to help founders learn in different ways throughout the day. On November 4,TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026brings founders and investors together at SoWa Power Station in Boston for one day of practical learning, candid conversations, live pitching, smaller roundtables, and networking. Register now to save up to $100 on your pass, plus get a second for free. Or save up to 30% ongroup bundles. TheBuild Stagefocuses on the decisions founders make while they are still shaping, testing, and growing the business. These sessions get into the mechanics behind building a company, from distribution and fundraising to team building and pitching. Hunter WorlandofNEAopens the conversation on why distribution can become a startup’s next competitive advantage, especially when strong technology alone is not enough to win customers. Kristen CraftofFidelity Private Sharesbrings a current view of fundraising trends, helping founders understand how the capital environment is shifting and what that means for the way they approach their next raise. The stage also gets tactical about building high-performing teams and sharpening the story you tell investors, customers, and potential hires. Dave BalterofTrue Venturesand Edisyl takes on a deceptively simple question: Does your pitch earn the next conversation? The value of theBuild Stageis straightforward: These are lessons founders can take back to their companies immediately. If the Build Stage is about creating momentum, theImpact Stageis about what happens once that momentum becomes real. This is where founders can step back and think about bigger decisions around product-market fit, scaling, enterprise relationships, leadership, and long-term growth. Steve Fredette, president, co-founder, and director ofToast, brings the perspective of building and scaling one of Boston’s most recognizable startup success stories. Rudina Seseri, founder and managing partner ofGlasswing Ventures, explores the tension every founder eventually faces: when to scale and when hitting the brakes may actually protect the business. Kent BennettofBessemer Venture Partnerstackles product-market fit before scale, helping founders think more critically about whether the signals they are seeing truly justify the next phase of growth. Chase Garbarino, CEO and co-founder ofHqO, brings the conversation home with the Boston Founder Playbook and a perspective on building ambitious companies outside the Bay Area. TheImpact Stageis valuable because it creates space for founders to get out of the weeds for a moment and ask whether they are scaling the right things, in the right way, at the right time. Main Stage sessions can give you perspective.Roundtablesgive you room to get specific. Founder Summit’s smaller roundtables are built around highly focused problems that many founders are actively solving right now, from entering difficult verticals and building enterprise trust to creating lean teams and opening doors with major customers. Chirag ShahofDefine Venturesdigs into what happens when your first vertical is also one of the hardest to enter. A technical session withShishir TewariofProcore Technologiesmoves the AI conversation from broad hype to the practical challenge of reducing hallucinations with better enterprise context. Merve KitapciofADIN.AIgets highly specific about enterprise selling and what it takes to land major global customers before Series A. Andy TangofDraper Associatesopens a different kind of founder conversation: What if you are building something the market does not even have a name for yet? Linden TibbetsofIFTTTexplores how AI may change the assumptions founders make about team size, productivity, and what a smaller company can realistically accomplish. The value here is participation. Instead of simply hearing how someone else approached a problem, founders can bring their own questions, compare experiences with the people around the table, and leave with ideas that are much closer to their actual business. Founder Summit also gives attendees the chance to see what happens when founders put their stories in front of investors in real time. During “So You Think You Can Pitch?,” founders make their cases in front of investors, includingDave Balter,Chirag Shah, andSimran Suriof Maveron. This is one of the most interactive parts of the day because it turns advice about pitching into something founders can actually watch: what gets an investor’s attention, where a story loses momentum, and which questions come up immediately. For anyone preparing to raise, sell, recruit, or simply explain their company more clearly, seeing those reactions live can be incredibly useful. The Networking Lounge powered by Braindate gives attendees another way to connect intentionally throughout the day. Schedule a one-on-one conversation. Join a small group. Find someone who wants to talk about the exact challenge you are working through. Hear a session on product-market fit, then find another founder working through the same issue. Watch the pitch competition, then compare notes with someone preparing for their own fundraise. Hear the Boston Founder Playbook, then meet other founders doing exactly that. Braindate helps turn the content into conversation. The day wraps up with a closing reception presented by Fidelity Private Shares, giving attendees time to keep the conversations going without rushing to the next session. That matters because some of the most useful connections at an event happen after you have already shared a room, a question, or a conversation earlier in the day. Founder Summit is not built around one type of conference experience. The Build Stage gives founders practical lessons they can apply now. The Impact Stage creates room for bigger growth and leadership decisions. The roundtables let you ask questions and go deeper. The live pitch competition puts founder storytelling to the test. Braindate makes networking intentional. And the reception gives those conversations somewhere to continue. That mix is what makes the day valuable. TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026takes place November 4 at SoWa Power Station in Boston. There is still time to join us in Boston.

Apple is adjusting its App Store policies to make it more difficult for minors to use online dating apps or AI companions that engage in “sexual or romantic content,” the tech giant shared in anannouncementto developers on Monday. The new rules follow other changes the company has made to better protect minors, which include therollout of its age assurance technologyglobally andmore parental controls and child safety features. While most major dating services typically restrict their platform to adults, Apple’s new policy will require all apps offering dating or romantic relationship features to carry an 18+ rating. Starting November 16, developers will be required to include new content descriptors to ensure their app’s age ratings reflect its features, the company said. It’s perhaps more interesting how this rule could impact AI companion apps, or those where such functionality is one of many features. Often targeted at younger people, Character.AI, Replika, and other AI apps let people create AI companions, including friends, lovers, boyfriends and girlfriends, and other fantasy characters. xAI last year alsolaunched3D animated AI companions that allowed users tounlock NSFW capabilities. As of last summer, top AI companion apps across the Apple App Store and Google Playhad been downloaded 220 million times globally. In addition to “dating and relationships,” apps will also need to indicate if they are sharing the real-world locations of a user with another person or group as part of their functionality. Any app doing so raises obvious privacy concerns, especially if the user wasn’t aware that their location was being shared. The company noted that in Brazil, apps that provide location-sharing features for families can request an official rating from the government’s Ministry of Justice and Public Security (MJSP/Ministério da Justiça e Segurança Pública), instead of being required to list them with the A16 rating, as the local law requires.
