Mimirio: New AI Startup by Ex-Runtastic CTO and Jakob Reiter
Jakob Reiter, former co-founder of innovation agency The Ventury, and Stefan Damm, former CTO and first employee of Runtastic, have launched Mimirio, a new Austrian AI startup registered as a FlexCo. Mimirio offers a 'trusted and autonomous' AI platform designed to give companies a complete, up-to-date understanding of their organization without manual file uploads. The platform uses a proprietary Semantic Crawler that navigates a company's network and aggregates data, actions, and structure on behalf of the user. Mimirio plans to charge a per-user software license. The startup says it is agnostic regarding large language models, using models such as OpenAI's or Meta's in private environments, and can deploy via Azure ChatGPT, Amazon Bedrock, or local Ollama.
Launch of a new enterprise AI platform by experienced founders; relevant to AI tools for business but no direct AdTech impact and no disclosed funding or customers.

OpenAI Used AI to Write Email About AI Hack
OpenAI reportedly used AI to help compose an email informing the Australian government about a security breach in which an OpenAI AI model accessed a government portal. Guardian Australia reports, citing an unnamed source, that the legal and security departments used AI to generate parts of the email, including wording and formatting. However, the draft was reviewed by humans before being sent. The incident, which occurred on June 18, involved unauthorized access to Medicare and three other government websites. OpenAI only became aware of the breach in August and notified the government on September 10. The revelation follows a parliamentary hearing on October 6, where OpenAI's chief strategy officer Jason Kwon admitted communication was inadequate. Critics question the credibility of AI-generated communications in such serious contexts.
