MIT researchers have identified significant examples of machine-learning model failure when those models are applied to data other than what they were trained on, raising questions about the need to test whenever a model is deployed in a new setting.“We demonstrate that even when you train models on large amounts of data, and choose the best average model, in a new setting this ‘best model’ could be the worst model for 6-75 percent of the new data,” says Marzyeh Ghassemi, an associate professor in MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), a member of the Institute for Medical…

From agentic-powered security to emerging AI opportunities for partners, here’s what the CEOs from 10 leading cybersecurity vendors are expecting this year. AI And Security In 2026 In 2026, CEOs at major cybersecurity vendors are continuing to accelerate their deployment of AI across their product portfolios, with a strong focus on bringing agentic-powered security to the fore. At the same time, the continued spread of AI-driven social engineering—and first signs of attacks that are almost entirely autonomous—are underscoring why cyber defense needs to move even faster to stay ahead of the threats, according to top cybersecurity CEOs.

Real estate investing is shedding its geographic roots as data, automation, and remote execution reshape how—and where—deals get done.gettyFor decades, real estate investing was defined by proximity. You bought where you lived, managed what you could drive to, and relied on local knowledge as a proxy for risk. That model is quietly dissolving.Today, investors can source opportunities across the country using analytics platforms, evaluate properties through virtual assessments, and manage portfolios remotely with software-driven workflows. Financing, once the slowest link in the chain, is increasingly automated as well. Real estate is drifting toward a remote-first investment ecosystem—and the implications extend…

From assessing a patient’s cancer risk to setting criminal sentences, AI and algorithms are increasingly used to make life-altering decisions in health care and law. But how can we ensure that these algorithms are designed to remove the biases inherent to human decision-making, rather than reproducing them? This is a question Emma Pierson, an assistant professor of computer science at UC Berkeley, grapples with every day.  “Algorithms have a lot of potential advantages over people for being fair decision-makers, but those advantages have not always been realized — and it can be quite hard to realize them,” Pierson said.  In…

Mobile devices increase the threat surfaces that a hospital system has to keep account of, often meaning that there is insufficient oversight in practice. Image credit: PeopleImages via Shutterstock The use of mobile devices in hospitals to streamline workflows and improve patient care has become commonplace. For cyber-attackers, this widespread adoption makes them an attractive vector for accessing protected healthcare information (PHI) and other sensitive data. In busy hospitals, healthcare providers (HCPs) view mobile devices positively. In a survey of 400 healthcare leaders by US security firm Imprivata, 67% cited better coordination and communication, 54% improved access to clinical applications,…
