There is a war brewing between AI and consulting. Akin to an armies slow march towards the castle, a new technology is coming to dethrone the expert guessers of Mckinsey, Nielsen, Gartner, Publicis and the rest. Any consulting that involves analyzing people (think all of marketing, research, polling, etc.) will have to reckon with the technology of “synthetic audiences”.Synthetic audiences aim to generate digital versions of people that can then be surveyed almost instantly and affordably, but not as accura

«Укрытие», оно же Саркофаг, стало неотъемлемой часть внешнего вида ЧАЭС в представлении рядового человека и среднестатистического геймера. Это — конструкция из стали и бетона укрыла от мира развёрстую дыру реактора 4-го энергоблока Чернобыльской АЭС. Это — памятник первой Атомной эре, начавшейся с огненных грибов над Аламагордо и Японией и закончившийся полуночным взрывом на ЧАЭС. Это — гигантский короб, появившийся за считанные месяцы в тяжелейших условиях, с которыми когда либо сталкивались... Read more ›

Закон Паркинсона гласит, что работа растягивается на всё отведённое под неё время. А в современную эпоху ИИ у людей вообще появился инструмент, способный масштабировать результаты их работы до той степени, до которой они смогут нагенерировать целевой контент, то есть почти безгранично.То, что я наблюдаю в своём профессиональном поле на протяжении двух последних лет, сложно описать. Первый явный звоночек я заметил чуть меньше, чем полтора года назад. Тогда я обратил внимание,... Read more ›

AI agents choose tools from shared registries by matching natural-language descriptions. But no human is verifying whether those descriptions are true. I discovered this gap when I filed Issue #141 in the CoSAI secure-ai-tooling repository. I assumed it would be treated as a single risk entry. The repository maintainer saw it differently and split my submission into two separate issues: One covering selection-time threats (tool impersonation, metadata manipulation); the other...

A doctor in a hospital exam room watches as a medical transcription agent updates electronic health records, prompts prescription options, and surfaces patient history in real time. A computer vision agent on a manufacturing line is running quality control at speeds no human inspector can match. Both generate non-human identities that most enterprises cannot inventory, scope, or revoke at machine speed.That is the structural problem keeping agentic AI stuck in... Read more ›

Is AI leaving the era of "turn-based" chat?Right now, all of us who use AI models regularly for work or in our personal lives know that the basic interaction mode across text, imagery, audio, and video remains the same: the human user provides an input, waits anywhere between milliseconds to minutes (or in some cases, for particularly tough queries, hours and days), and the AI model provides an output.But if...

Presented by EdgeVerveFor most enterprises, AI adoption began with a straightforward ambition: automate work faster, cheaper, and at scale. Chatbots replaced basic service requests, machine‑learning models optimized forecasts, and analytics dashboards promised sharper insights. Yet many organizations are now discovering that deploying individual AI solutions does not automatically translate into enterprise‑level impact. Pilots proliferate, but value plateaus.The next phase of AI maturity is no longer about. Read more ›

Between May 6 and 7, four security research teams published findings about Anthropic’s Claude that most outlets covered as three separate stories. One involved a water utility in Mexico, another targeted a Chrome extension, and a third hijacked OAuth tokens through Claude Code. In one case, Claude identified a water utility’s SCADA gateway without being told to look for one.These are not three bugs. They are one architectural question playing... Read more ›

AI that can see and understand what's happening in a video — especially a live feed — is understandably an attractive product to lots of enterprises and organizations. Beyond acting as a security "watchdog" over sites and facilities, such an AI model could also be used to clip out the most exciting parts of marketing videos and repurpose them for social, identify inconsistencies and gaffs in videos and flag them...

On affected developer workstations, the worm harvests credentials from over 100 file paths: AWS keys, SSH private keys, npm tokens, GitHub PATs, HashiCorp Vault tokens, Kubernetes service accounts, Docker configs, shell history, and cryptocurrency wallets.

As large language models become more capable, users are tempted to delegate knowledge tasks where models process documents on their behalf and provide the finished results. But how far can you trust the model to stay faithful to the content of your documents when it has to iterate over them across multiple rounds?A new study by researchers at Microsoft shows that large language models silently corrupt documents that they work...
