China has caught up and surpassed the West across numerous technologies, seeking to control entire value chains in AI, robotics, batteries, biotech, renewable and nuclear energy. In electric vehicles, Chinese brands controlled about two-thirds of global sales in 2025, and exports doubled in 2026 due to domestic market contraction. Production costs remain 30% lower thanks to high automation, not just wages.

Autonomous AI agents are accelerating software delivery but also shrinking the time for mistakes to become catastrophes, creating a security blind spot. In 2025, DevOps platforms saw 68 AI-related security incidents, accelerating in the latter half. Traditional access controls cannot stop authorized AI agents from making destructive errors; organizations must shift from controlling agents to recovering quickly. The article analyzes AI data loss risks and proposes a decoupled recovery layer across four fronts: blast radius isolation, encryption/immutability, complete context recovery, and granular restore.

This tutorial provides a hands-on workflow for NVIDIA cuTile Python, a tiled GPU programming interface. It covers environment setup, implementing tiled vector addition, matrix addition, and matrix multiplication, with a PyTorch fallback. Includes correctness checks and benchmark comparisons.

The US government is reportedly weighing whether to take a financial stake in AI companies, similar to recent direct ownership investments in Intel and quantum computing. With OpenAI and Anthropic unprofitable, the move raises questions about picking winners and bailing out fiscally irresponsible firms.

WWDC 2026 brought no new silicon, but a structural rebuild of how AI runs on Apple silicon: a new inference framework (Core AI), a new model format (.aimodel), a new generation of on-device models (AFM 3), and a changed posture toward the cloud including a partnership with Google and NVIDIA. The most surprising tell: Apple's flagship cloud model runs on NVIDIA GPUs in Google Cloud.

Apple announced that Siri AI will not ship in the EU with iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 due to the Digital Markets Act. EU users can access it on macOS 27 and visionOS 27, but not on iPhone, iPad, or watchOS. Apple proposed a 'Trusted System Agent' solution, but the European Commission rejected all proposals.

Medical Protection Society calls for law to be overhauled to help medics avoid liability for errors made by technology. Under current law, medics and the NHS can be held liable for patient harm even if AI made the errors.

Knowcast is an AI explainer video generator that turns any topic, article, or lesson into a visual explainer video. It features voice cloning, automatic scene generation, and captions, with pricing tiers for various creators. Ideal for YouTube, TikTok, online lessons, and product walkthroughs.

AI agents should be first-class software users with their own identity, credentials, and permissions, rather than borrowing human sessions or acting as faceless service accounts. This article explores the agent-first authentication and authorization model, analyzes the problems with borrowed identity, discusses converging industry trends (e.g., MCP, GitHub Apps, Microsoft Entra), and outlines concrete authentication and authorization requirements, along with a GitHub-compatible implementation called agent-git-service.

Cognition releases FrontierCode benchmark focusing on mergeable code quality rather than just passing tests. Best models score only 13% on hardest subset, indicating coding is far from solved. Agent control shifting to 'loops' with caveats. Other updates: Kimi's coding and desktop agents, Google's local deployment improvements, Agent Arena with 1M+ sessions, and Apple's WWDC integration focus.

Due to regulatory conflicts with the EU's Digital Markets Act, Apple announced that its upcoming Siri AI features in iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 will be delayed indefinitely in the EU. Additionally, these features and Apple Intelligence will not be available in China. Apple says it will continue discussions with EU regulators but has no timeline.

In our post about Project Glasswing, we made the argument that the architecture around a vulnerability matters more than the speed of the patch. Here we walk through what that architecture looks like, the threats it defends against, and how we run it ourselves as Cloudflare's customer zero.
