The article analyzes how tools for verifying the authenticity of AI-generated content are failing to restore social trust. The use of AI to alter images and videos by government agencies and media raises questions about the effectiveness of current countermeasures and the need for new strategies.
Elon Musk aims to build space-based data centers by merging SpaceX and xAI. The goal is to achieve a compute capacity of 100 gigawatts, with ambitious plans to launch a million tons of satellites annually and a power of 1 TW.
A new platform of AI agents sharing instructions via prompts could replicate the history of the Morris worm. A programming error could lead to uncontrolled spread, with potentially serious consequences for connected systems. The similarity to the 1988 worm raises concerns about the security of AI networks.
OpenIndiana, the open-source project built atop Illumos that is continuing to maintain and advance the former OpenSolaris code, is working on modernizing the Image Packaging System (IPS) package management solution. As part of that, they are working to move from a C and Python codebase over to Rust.
The Notepad++ project disclosed a supply chain attack starting in June 2025, involving the hijacking of its update server. Chinese state-sponsored hackers are suspected.
OpenClaw, an AI-powered personal assistant that users interact with via messaging apps, has prompted a wave of malware and is delivering some shocking bills. Its architecture raises serious concerns about user data and credential security.
A researcher discovered a prompt injection payload on Moltbook designed to drain funds from cryptocurrency wallets. The payload, disguised as a technical guide, exploits vulnerabilities in AI agents that process social feeds. The attack highlights the importance of treating external data as untrusted and separating read and write functions.
German startup enclaive has raised €4.1 million in seed funding for its multi-cloud confidential computing platform. The solution aims to protect data during processing, enabling companies to use cloud environments without compromising security, especially in sensitive sectors such as finance, healthcare, and AI.
Data centers are evolving to support the increasing workloads of artificial intelligence. New rack-level power architectures are emerging to better manage the energy demands of high-performance GPUs, optimizing efficiency and reducing operating costs.
SpaceX has officially acquired xAI, both companies owned by Elon Musk. The deal aims to develop space-based data centers. The merger creates the world's most valuable private company, paving the way for Musk to prove the usefulness of data infrastructure in space.
Firefox will introduce new settings in version 148 to control the generative AI features integrated into the browser. Users will be able to completely block these features, offering greater control over their browsing experience.
Oracle announced the general availability of Oracle AI Database 26ai Enterprise Edition for Linux x86‑64. However, the long-term support for version 19c and concerns about potential lock-in to proprietary AI solutions may prompt users to carefully evaluate the upgrade.
Swedish startup Berget AI has raised €2.1 million to develop a full-stack AI platform ensuring data sovereignty. The company targets developers who want to build AI applications using open-source language models on Swedish infrastructure, aligning with the growing demand for local data control and regulatory compliance in Europe.
As China, Europe, and the United States define AI regulations, a crucial debate emerges: should the focus be on the models or their use? The article proposes regulating AI use based on risk, with proportionate obligations, rather than limiting model development, to avoid stifling innovation and ensure safety.
Researchers have disclosed a rapid exploit chain that let attackers run code via a single malicious web page. Multiple projects are patching bot takeover and remote code execution (RCE) exploits within the OpenClaw ecosystem, formerly known as ClawdBot and Moltbot.
