In 2025, generative AI has evolved from text generation to multi-modal use cases ranging from audio transcription and translation to voice agents that require real-time data streaming. Today’s applications demand something more: continuous, real-time dialogue between users and models—the ability for data to flow both ways, simultaneously, over a single persistent connection. Imagine a speech to text use-case, where you will need to stream the audio stream as input and receive the transcripted text as a continuous stream. Such use-cases will require bi-directional streaming capability. We’re introducing bidirectional streaming for Amazon SageMaker AI Inference, which transforms inference from a transactional exchange…

Blockchain is transforming supply chains, yet weak IoT, smart contracts, and governance gaps expose them to rising cybersecurity risks.

Ledger Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Charles Guillemet recently warned crypto users about a new wave of major zero-click vulnerabilities. Guillemet urged crypto users to protect their assets by not leaving valuable information on their phones.State-linked hackers on rampageThe Ledger CTO noted that nation-states have bought zero-click vulnerabilities to spy on high-value targets or criminal organizations. They aim to steal high-value secrets, such as crypto wallets. According to reports, state-sponsored hacking groups are using commercial spyware to compromise Signal, WhatsApp and Telegram.Once installed, the spyware gives the attacker complete access to the phone, including crypto wallet apps. The targets so far are mostly…

BYLINE: Russ Nelson As Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones, become increasingly vital to military, government and civilian applications, conventional machine-learning techniques essential to training these devices often rely on paradigms that require transmitting all raw data from UAVs to centralized servers. This approach can be impractical due to privacy concerns, limited bandwidth and the time required for a task to be completed. Now a researcher in the College of Engineering at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) has won a $599,830 National Science Foundation grant to address these challenges by using collaborative Artificial Intelligence (AI). The effort pioneers…
