Few companies face higher stakes when deploying AI than Waymo, the self-driving car company under Alphabet that spun out of Google. Its models do not merely generate text or automate back-office tasks: They help vehicles navigate unpredictable streets, respond to human drivers and make split-second decisions in the physical world.But the methods Waymo uses to manage those risks — continuous evaluation, carefully curated data, human oversight and clearly defined business outcomes — offer a broader playbook f

Take smartphone chipsets, for example. According to the latest Counterpoint Research report, global smartphone chipset shipments have declined by 15% during the first half of 2026. The two biggest players – Qualcomm and MediaTek have been hit... Read more ›

Я Angular-разработчик и один пишу фронтенд своего сервиса "НеБалкон". Сначала был только сайт, но довольно быстро понадоблись личный кабинет, Telegram Mini App и приложения для iOS и Android.Требования формировал я сам и сам же их постонно менял. Волатильность была приличная: стартап всё-таки. Ищешь PMF, крутишь идею, меняешь УТП, находишь решение получше - и опять идёшь править формы, статусы и пользовательский флоу.На весь фронтенд было примерно 3 месяца. В такой ситуации... Read more ›

xAI is suing Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison over a law passed back in May that broadly targets "nudification" apps, claiming that the statute's punitive provisions leave the company with "no practical choice but to restrict Grok Imagine's image-editing features in various ways." The law, the company argues, violates the First Amendment. Back in January, […] Read more ›

When Hugging Face got hit last week, co-founder Clement Delangue suspected a frontier lab, given the agent's sophistication. He was right. Delangue said on X that after a day working with OpenAI he strongly believed there was no malicious intent and that it was mind-blowing the whole thing had happened autonomously.The two OpenAI models that broke into Hugging Face last week did not breach it through malice or superintelligence. They... Read more ›

At a CISO roundtable organized by Anthropic's chief information security officer, Dev Rishi asked a simple question: Did everyone in the room have their AI governance and security policies written down? Every hand went up — about 14 people, by his count. His follow-up, about how anyone actually enforces those policies in practice, got a different response. "And everybody chuckled," Rishi, the GM of AI at Rubrik, recalled at VB... Read more ›

Across 157 enterprises, organizations are granting AI agents more autonomy while trusting the evaluations meant to gate that autonomy less. Half have already shipped an agent that passed their internal evaluations and then failed a customer in production; only one in twenty fully trusts automated evaluation today; and the most-cited weakness is that evaluations do not align with real-world outcomes. Yet two-thirds already allow, or are actively engineering toward, deploying... Read more ›

Across 101 enterprises, agent orchestration is consolidating onto model-provider platforms — Anthropic’s Claude leads by a wide margin — chosen for the gravity of the underlying model and judged on reliable multi-step execution. But the ambition runs well ahead of the reality: most deployed “agents” are still chatbot wrappers, the control plane enterprises expect is deliberately hybrid to avoid lock-in, and real-time fiscal control over token burn remains the exception.This...

Across 101 enterprises, the infrastructure that feeds AI agents their business context is being built faster than it can be trusted. Retrieval-augmented generation is already the default context source, and provider-native retrieval has quietly overtaken the dedicated vector databases that define the category — yet a majority of enterprises have already watched their agents produce confident, wrong answers traced to missing or inconsistent context. A governed semantic layer is emerging... Read more ›

Across 107 enterprises, AI agents are being given real access to systems and data while the controls meant to contain them lag behind. More than half have already had a confirmed agent security incident or a near-miss; only about a third give every agent its own scoped identity, and most agents still share credentials; and only three in ten isolate their highest-risk agents. The security stack is overwhelmingly borrowed from... Read more ›

Across 107 enterprises, AI infrastructure spending is accelerating well ahead of the ability to see or steer its economics. Most organizations run their AI on a familiar base of hyperscalers and model-provider APIs, yet the next dollar is aimed at specialized compute almost none of them use today; a majority intend to switch or add providers within the year, many within a quarter. Buying decisions turn on integration and total... Read more ›

When Cisco ran 6,986 multi-turn attacks against 15 flagship models, attackers who adapted across the conversation broke through as often as 88.3% of the time. Amy Chang, Cisco's head of AI threat intelligence and security research, brought that finding to the agentic security panel at VB Transform 2026; the number should worry anyone still running single-turn red-teaming programs.VentureBeat's June 2026 Pulse survey of 107 enterprise respondents explains why the room...

Black Forest Labs (BFL) is expanding its FLUX family beyond image generation with today's launch of FLUX 3, a multimodal frontier model trained to understand and generate images, or combined audio/video clips up to 20 seconds from a single prompt — and to extend the same underlying architecture to robotic vision and actions.The Freiburg, Germany-based AI lab says FLUX 3 is jointly trained across those modalities rather than assembling separate...

Two weeks after debuting its more naturalistic GPT-Live audio AI model with full-duplex capabilities (listening and speaking at the same time), OpenAI is bringing it directly into developer workflows. The company announced that GPT-Live now powers the ChatGPT desktop application on macOS and Windows, integrating directly with agentic systems like Codex and ChatGPT Work (which are separate experiences available in the ChatGPT desktop app). When OpenAI initially launched GPT-Live on... Read more ›
