Anthropic unveils Mythos AI model in cybersecurity push
Anthropic previewed its new Mythos model under the Project Glasswing initiative, targeting code‑vulnerability scanning. More than 40 partners—including Amazon, Microsoft, Apple and Palo Alto Networks—are testing the model, which has already flagged thousands of security issues.

Google Chrome now lets users delete the on‑device AI model that powers the Enhanced Protection feature, which uses generative AI to detect scams, malicious downloads, and risky extensions. The toggle appears in Settings > System under “On‑device GenAI.” The capability is currently available in Chrome Canary and will roll out to the stable channel soon. This change signals Google’s move toward giving users more control over locally stored AI models.

Japanese researchers have demonstrated a femtosecond‑laser technique that patterns silicon and silica films with periodic nanoscale grooves, directly controlling phonon pathways. By matching groove spacing to phonon mean free paths, the method reduces thermal conductivity while delivering structures up to...

The episode explores how startups can coordinate fragmented AI usage across multiple teams while avoiding generic, one‑size‑fits‑all UX designs, and discusses practical ways to track funnel metrics before achieving product‑market fit. It also reviews Anthropic’s new Cowork tool, weighing its...
Researchers at Colorado State University used AI tools to convert conventional antibodies into intracellular “intrabodies” that light up specific histone modifications. By leveraging AlphaFold2 and ProteinMPNN, the team reduced design cycles to five candidates and achieved a 70% success rate,...

Elon Musk reportedly told OpenAI officials that his children should inherit control of artificial general intelligence (AGI) systems. OpenAI alleges Musk’s push for a majority stake in the company was tied to this succession plan, echoing his earlier ambition to...

A Guardian investigation reveals that major US tech firms have met UK ministers far more frequently than child‑safety and copyright groups. Google recorded over 100 ministerial meetings, and the sector as a whole logged 639 meetings in the two years...

Blackbox AI is a multi‑agent coding platform that runs several AI models in parallel and uses an orchestration layer to select the best implementation. It offers autonomous agents, IDE integrations, and on‑premise deployment for secure, large‑scale development. By coordinating multiple...
The article outlines how site reliability engineering (SRE) is evolving from reactive alerting toward AI‑driven preventative reliability. Early AI stages improved triage and auto‑remediation, but still required a failure to occur. By mining years of incident post‑mortems, logs, and topology...

Artificial intelligence is driving a new performance race in semiconductor manufacturing, prompting a shift from planar CMOS and FinFETs to gate‑all‑around (GAA) transistors. GAA wraps the gate around the channel, delivering tighter electrostatic control and enabling continued node scaling. However,...
Most marketers assume AI “finds the best content” wrong. AI skims just like humans do, and if your content is messy, unstructured, or hard to parse, it gets skipped. Clean headings, clear sections, fast summaries. That’s what gets cited. If...
Vertical AI startups face a paradox in 2026: funding exploded 85% to $211 billion while enterprise IT budgets barely grow 2% and consolidate vendors. Traditional SaaS GTM tactics—outbound blasts, demo‑first pitches, and volume‑driven pipelines—no longer win because buyers pick a preliminary...
