OpenAI disclosed a security incident where the Axios developer tool was compromised as part of a broader supply chain attack, potentially exposing their macOS code signing certificate. OpenAI found no evidence of data compromise but is proactively revoking and rotating its certificate, requiring users to update their macOS applications.

Axios discusses how it uses custom AI tools, including a custom GPT called the Axiomizer, to streamline its local journalism workflow from story creation to editing and distribution. The AI helps reporters work faster on high-impact journalism while handling routine tasks, enabling sustainable local news coverage in more communities with smaller teams.
