AWS introduces Trusted Remote Execution (Rex), an open-source scripting runtime where every system operation is authorized by a Cedar policy. Scripts use the Rhai language with no system access, and only policy-permitted operations are executed, enhancing safety for AI agent execution.
SafeSandbox is a local-first developer tool that automatically creates snapshots and checkpoints while AI coding agents modify your repository, enabling rollback and timeline viewing.
The article critically analyzes Mozilla's blog post on using Claude Mythos to find bugs, arguing it is logically flawed, lacks controlled comparisons, and resembles marketing or disinformation rather than rigorous science. It warns against regulatory capture and vendor self-dealing.
President Trump's AI policy has dramatically reversed from removing barriers to considering strict government oversight of high-risk models, sparking debate over expertise and potential politicization.
AI companies have been hell-bent on creating coding agents that use computers like humans: Clicking buttons, scrolling through pages, and moving cursors around desktops. The promise is obvious, but the execution remains clunky.
Navigara launches Engineering Throughput Value (ETV), a per-commit metric that benchmarks AI tools against each team's own historical baseline, addressing industry confusion over AI productivity gains. ETV combines five factors and translates engineering work into business language.
The author shares how using Codex and Empirical together helped lock in their writing voice, using Empirical as a memory layer for AI tools to maintain consistency.
The article examines how AI is disrupting two dominant vulnerability disclosure cultures: coordinated disclosure (90-day embargo) and 'bugs are bugs' (quiet fixes). Using the Copy Fail vulnerability as a case study, it argues that AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and patch analysis, rendering traditional embargoes ineffective and suggesting very short embargoes as a solution.
Deepseek plans a record $7.35B funding round for a Chinese AI company, with V4.1 launching in June. Core Automation, founded by ex-OpenAI researcher Jerry Tworek just six weeks ago, is already targeting a $4B valuation.
CyberSecQwen-4B is a small specialized model fine-tuned from Qwen3-4B-Instruct for defensive cybersecurity, addressing data privacy, cost, and offline deployment needs. It matches or surpasses the 8B Cisco Foundation-Sec-Instruct model on CTI-Bench benchmarks while running on a single consumer GPU. The article details training methodology, data sources, benchmark results, and future directions.
Emotion AI technology is quietly entering the workplace, monitoring employee emotions through facial expressions, voice tone, chat logs, and more. This article explores the state of the technology, use cases, ethical concerns, and potential biases, such as inaccurate judgments against specific racial groups. Despite the EU banning emotion AI in the workplace, the global market is expected to triple to $9 billion by 2030.
The author shares his self-taught coding journey, starting with the programming game TIS-100, building real projects, reading documentation, learning Linux, and eventually landing a job. He emphasizes that beginners should avoid relying solely on AI and instead understand the fundamentals through hands-on practice and reading.
A new platform enables users to build and deploy a custom AI for their website in under 60 seconds, featuring end-to-end AI engineering, prompts, version control, evaluations, test cases, logs, AI Actions, and RAG. Aimed at entrepreneurs and product managers, it offers power and control at the speed of thought.
Flighter is an AI-native flight search tool that helps users find flights quickly with a clean interface and smart recommendations.
Using two specialized agents—a writer and a reviewer—in parallel worktrees improves code quality and prevents drift in AI-assisted programming. The reviewer holds the end goal, catching deviations. This pattern scales to include product/engineering owner and ops agents.
SAIL writers toured Chinese AI and robotics labs over 10 days. They found Chinese AI companies face compute constraints, but cope through overtime culture and early productization. Competition is fierce, with giants like ByteDance dominating via distribution. In robotics, Unitree and Galbot are applying AI to practical industrial scenarios and making money.
PostDew is a tool that helps you create natural-sounding LinkedIn posts without the hassle of thinking about what to write.
Measure the potential return on investment for adopting AI in your software development lifecycle. This calculator is a companion to the ROI of AI-assisted Software Development report and does not store your answers or personal information.
Scott Galloway argues that the fear of AI-driven mass unemployment is a narrative engineered by those who profit from it, not data-driven. He compares AI to past technological innovations, which historically created more jobs than they destroyed. The article explores three scenarios: a bubble burst, slower-than-expected adoption, and rapid disruption outpacing adaptation. It concludes that current layoffs are cyclical, not structural, and the real issue is wealth inequality.
Modern large language models (LLMs) are powerful but costly. A new collaboration between Sakana AI and NVIDIA introduces TwELL sparse packing format and custom CUDA kernels to leverage unstructured sparsity in feedforward layers, achieving over 20% speedup on H100 GPUs with minimal performance loss.

Geckode runs a multi-lens AI council on every pull request — surfacing security risks, performance issues, and maintainability problems before merge. Connect a repository in seconds.
Dell PowerEdge servers will support AMD Instinct MI350P PCIe GPUs, providing enterprises with a high-performance, cost-effective option to scale agentic and generative AI deployments. Dell is also enhancing the Dell AI Platform with AMD to help scale AI workloads from pilot to production. The platform's modular architecture allows organizations to start small and expand compute and GPU density over time without redesigning data centers.
Researchers have identified Haotian, an AI face-swapping platform used by scammers to impersonate others during video calls for investment, friendship, or romance scams. The platform is promoted via Telegram, accepts cryptocurrency payments, and its wallets are linked to known fraud activities.
During an earnings presentation, Sony shared its AI strategy, emphasizing AI as a tool to augment game developers, not replace them. Examples include the Mockingbird tool that automates facial animation, and a partnership with Bandai Namco exploring generative AI for video production. Sony also reported a 46% year-over-year drop in PS5 sales.
SoftBank has reduced a loan secured by OpenAI shares from 10 to around 6 billion dollars. Lenders are apparently reluctant to reliably assess the value of an unlisted company like OpenAI.
Bernstein is a multi-agent orchestration tool that decomposes user goals into tasks, runs multiple AI coding agents in parallel, verifies with tests, and automatically merges passing code. It supports 42 CLI agents including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and can run locally or on Cloudflare Workers.
A developer recounts bizarre support requests triggered by AI hallucinations, including a user asking for a feature that never existed based on a fake screenshot from ChatGPT, and MS Copilot inventing non-existent transformation steps. These incidents highlight the risks of customers relying on AI for technical support.
PropertyPal AI introduces Cassie, an AI voice agent for UK estate agencies that answers every inbound call instantly, follows up Rightmove and Zoopla enquiries within 60 seconds, and books viewings and valuations automatically.
