James Maisiri’s account describes an offer to train AI in teaching and assessment, the judgement that work draws on, and the choices it creates for professionals.

Jakub Pachocki expects AI to drive more of its own development. His essay explains why alignment, monitoring and coordinated slowdowns must accompany it.

A week ago the acquisition was an unconfirmed report. Jensen Huang has now announced it himself, at $12,930,300,000, and committed that Nvidia compute will not be required to use Hugging Face.

World models are far behind language models in deployment evidence, and their development could concentrate further. Businesses will be offered physics-aware systems before anyone can show they work.

Nobody has confirmed a deal. What the report shows is where value is accumulating — the company that dominates AI hardware moving closer to the place developers go to find open models.

$1.3 trillion sunk, $2 trillion in new revenue needed to break even, and none of it tells you whether the tool you're paying for this week is earning its keep. Two different questions.

The ACM held its peer-reviewed library back from AI systems on principle. Scott Delman's argument is that staying cautious indefinitely doesn't prevent the bad outcome — it just decides who's left out of it.

When I think about AI and automation, I see an opportunity opening up that goes well beyond the chatbots everyone’s being handed — well beyond…

Lately I’ve been reaching for Gemini more than I expected to. Not for everything — but enough to notice it’s getting better at the non-coding bits of…

Technology, Not a Product (Free Edition) Dear Reader, Are you using AI like a vending machine? Last weekend John Gruber (of Daring Fireball fame)…

Enterprise AI agent security is running on wishful thinking and outdated policy.

Every vendor is calling their product agentic. Almost none of them are.

This week, MCP went from developer protocol to mainstream integration layer — and most AI newsletters missed it.

AI fatigue is real, but the backlash is aimed at the wrong target.

Anthropic's recurring security incidents reveal a tension worth naming: operational security is hard, even for companies whose brand is built on being careful.

AI agents are generating mobile app traffic that security teams can't see. Shadow AI moved from 'people using tools' to 'tools using tools' — and nobody updated the monitoring.

Vorlon's AI Agent Flight Recorder brings forensics to agentic systems. When your agent goes wrong, you'll want to know what happened — not guess.

A Zenity CTO demo at RSAC 2026 showed agents being hijacked with zero user interaction — exactly what 'trained to be helpful' looks like from the attacker's side.

Cisco's new MCP security gateway is the enterprise version of what power users already built out of necessity.

OpenAI is shutting down Sora three months after a Disney deal. The AI graveyard keeps filling up with technically impressive things nobody asked for.

Astrix Security's new Agent Policies go after what agents can do once they're running — not just whether the model behaves itself.

BeyondTrust's Phantom Labs data reveals the confidence gap at the heart of enterprise AI security — and the numbers are not subtle.

MCP is six months old and already has a CVSS 9.4 vulnerability. The security industry is scrambling. We've been here before.

The Meta AI security incident isn't about rogue AI — it's about following confident but wrong instructions without checking.

Enterprise vendors are turning the Moltbook API leak into a governance story — and the framing tells you where the market is heading.

Proofpoint's new Agent Integrity Framework monitors whether AI agents do what they were actually asked to do. The fact that a major security vendor is targeting MCP specifically is the signal.

Anthropic doubled Claude's usage limits during off-peak hours. They called it a thank-you. It's a demand curve signal.

Researchers from Harvard and Microsoft pinpointed the structural reasons AI pilots don't scale — and none of them are about the technology.

Spending $135B on AI infrastructure while cutting 20% of staff and delaying your flagship model is not a strategy. It's a prayer.

1M token context windows at flat pricing. No surcharge. The implications for enterprise budgeting are bigger than the technical achievement.

Certifications, partner funding, and a 5x team expansion. Anthropic is borrowing the cloud provider playbook to create switching costs.

Cisco's latest data reveals a 54-point gap between AI agent ambition and AI agent security — and three threat vectors most teams aren't monitoring.

The EU AI Act's high-risk deadlines just slid to 2027. Don't mistake breathing room for simplification.

Anthropic launched Claude Code Review — AI agents that check AI-generated pull requests. The numbers are impressive. The implications are worth thinking about.

Microsoft's flagship M365 agent feature runs on Anthropic's model. If they're going multi-model, so should you.

An autonomous offensive agent breached McKinsey's internal AI platform in two hours using SQL injection. The AI was sophisticated. The plumbing underneath it wasn't.

Forrester's reality check on Microsoft Copilot reveals the adoption paradox: the tool demonstrably works, and almost nobody is using it.

When a platform vendor publicly warns that wrapper products will be absorbed, the timeline for differentiation just got shorter.

MyClaw.ai collapsed under demand. 10,000+ paid signups in days. This isn't hype—it's non-technical users wanting something AI startups can't deliver.

Matt Shumer's viral AI post follows a familiar template. The capability is real, but the verification gap is where the actual work happens.

Anthropic isn't building a better chatbot. They're embedding AI where work actually happens.

Claude Code is spooking SaaS investors. But the actual disruption isn't where they're looking.
