I've been using the Vector APIs for years now, and I'm still waiting for them to GA! They are useful for neural information retrieval (RAG, memory), which relies heavily on content vectorization and similarity matching using their

We recently red-teamed GoodMem with GLM 5.3. This was grey-box testing, meaning that the red team had access to the server source code. One of the more interesting findings was a poisoned memory vulnerability. Basically, this is when an att
