Mobilint enters USB-connected AI accelerator market

Mobilint said on Aug. 7 it has launched the MLD-R1 as a commercial USB AI accelerator that adds AI inference to existing devices through a single USB connection. The product uses the company’s REGULUS standalone AI chip and connects to laptops, industrial PCs and embedded systems without expansion cards or system changes. It supports Windows, Linux, and x86 and ARM hosts, and targets applications including smart factories, robotics and security.

Ransomware targeting AI models emerges, encrypting training weights and raising recovery cost concerns

U.S. security firm Sysdig said the same attacker breached an internet-exposed Langflow server twice, using AI-focused ransomware called ENCFORGE in the second attack. The intrusions exploited a Langflow authentication bypass flaw to run arbitrary Python code and later evolved to encrypt AI assets. ENCFORGE selectively encrypts model checkpoints, vector indexes and training data. Sysdig estimated rebuilding a fine-tuned production model could cost $75,000 to $500,000.

Infinity raises $15 million for AI inference software at $100 million valuation

AI infrastructure startup Infinity has raised $15 million in funding at a valuation of $100 million. TechCrunch reported on July 20 that the round included Touring Capital, Principal VC, and researchers from OpenAI and Anthropic. Infinity is developing software to help AI chips run AI models more easily, with kernel software positioned as a possible replacement for Nvidia CUDA. It aims to build a universal inference library.
