Artificial intelligence will bestow vast influence on a par with nuclear weapons to those countries who are able to lead the technology, giving them superiority in the 21st Century, one of Russia’s top AI executive told Reuters.

When infrastructure itself becomes the target In early 2024, a breach involving Snowflake, Inc. sent a quiet shockwave through boardrooms across industries. Attackers bypassed perimeter defenses entirely; no malware, no exploit kit, no zero-day. They simply walked through an identity gap: weak credentials and excessive permissions. The attackers pivoted laterally inside multiple customer environments (AT&T, Santander Bank, Ticketmaster, etc.) and exfiltrated large volumes of sensitive data. For many CISOs watching that breach unfold, the lesson was blunt: in the cloud, identity is the new infrastructure – and once it’s compromised, everything that depends on it is suddenly in play. Some…

How do you keep reinforcement learning for large reasoning models from stalling on a few very long, very slow rollouts while GPUs sit under used? a team of researchers from Moonshot AI and Tsinghua University introduce ‘Seer’, a new online context learning system that targets a specific systems bottleneck in reinforcement learning for large language models. In synchronous on policy setups, the rollout phase dominates the cost of each iteration. Seer restructures this phase and reports rollout throughput gains of 74 percent to 97 percent and tail latency reductions of 75 percent to 93 percent compared with a strong synchronous…

Grayscale identifies Chainlink as critical. It connects crypto to traditional finance, anchoring the next wave of blockchain expansion and tokenization.Grayscale has boldly stated that Chainlink will be at the center.

Since early chatbots were first conceived more than 50 years go, they have become increasingly sophisticated – in large part, thanks to the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. They also seem to be everywhere: on desktops, mobile apps and embedded into everyday programs, meaning you can interact with them at any time. Now, new research I coauthored with my colleagues at the Digital Media Research Centre shows what happens when you interact with these chatbots about dangerous conspiracy theories. Many won’t shut the conversation down. In fact, some will even encourage it. The research, which is available as a…

Artificial intelligence (AI) isn’t going anywhere.Identifying stocks that you can buy and hold for the next decade is a great goal for every investor. These low-maintenance stocks can deliver excellent returns and hardly require any attention. However, they aren’t easy to identify because they require you to understand what will happen over the next 10 years. If you rewind the clock a decade, many events, like the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), cryptocurrency, and the COVID-19 pandemic, were difficult or impossible to predict. So, there is a bit of luck involved. However, I think these three are easily stocks that…

Space travel and cyber warfare may have once been confined to novels and movie screens, but for state leaders, those concepts are now less science fiction and more a growing industry. Texas is investing in commercial space flight and cybersecurity — and San Antonio is trying to increase local involvement and opportunity in both sectors. The Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce announced plans to host a Texas Space Summit in 2026, bringing together the Texas Space Commission and companies from around the state to discuss the space industry. Later that day, space commission and state officials gathered at the…
