I have a three-year-old Galaxy S23 I use for testing, and somewhere along the way it had stopped feeling like a flagship device. It just wasn’t as snappy as the day I bought it. But since it was my secondary phone, I wasn’t planning to upgrade it. So I did the next best thing. I spent 10 minutes making a few tweaks, and it made my old phone feel brand new again.

Whether it’s a vacuum cleaner, a hand dryer, an air purifier, or a fan, Dyson products rarely look like anything else on the market — and that’s particularly apparent at the company’s campus in Malmesbury, southwest England, where images of recent launches decorate the walls like modern art. The sprawling complex, in a particularly beautiful patch of Wiltshire countryside, is home to Dyson’s global Research, Design and Development (RDD) center, and the Dyson Institute, where students from around the world study while working alongside engineers on live projects. I visited the center to meet the company’s Chief Engineer Jake Dyson…

Google has announced that Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) is adopting a new cryptonym-based naming convention for tracking threat actors. According to the internet giant, the schema moves away from sequential numbers and disparate identifiers, relying instead on two-word combinations for each activity cluster. The first word, Google explains, is a unique and memorable term that may have been used in public reporting and which is meant to represent the threat actor. A randomly generated term will be used if none exists. The second word is meant to place each threat actor into a specific category based on motivation, attribution,…

Governments around the world are racing to regulate AI before it becomes too deeply embedded in society. But new research suggests poorly designed rules could make AI systems less safe than having no regulation at all.Regulatory disagreements in the US are leading to a patchwork of approaches as states take matters into their own hands. A key question is who should be responsible for the safety of AI products—the big tech companies building the underlying models or the firms that adapt them for a particular task, such as a customer service chatbot or an AI tutor.Working this out is trickier…

With AI now capable of writing exploits and running attacks at machine speed, the security tools built for a slower, human-paced world are starting to show their age. Microsoft thinks it has the answer, and it’s calling it Project Perception. So what exactly is Project Perception? At its core, Project Perception is an AI agentic security system built to think and react as fast as the threats it’s designed to stop. Instead of just piling on more alerts for security teams to sift through, it uses AI to continuously watch, reason, and act across an organization’s entire digital footprint. Microsoft…

To be fair, James Cameron did warn us. Long before OpenAI broke out of its test corral and hacked into Hugging Face, before the internet and Sam Altman were even born, Cameron wrote a screenplay about an autonomous artificial intelligence system that triggers a nuclear apocalypse. That system, “Skynet,” was solidly science fiction — and, for its day, pure speculation. But four decades after it appeared in “The Terminator,” it looks more like a forecast of the “unprecedented cyber incident” in which a rogue artificial intelligence system hacked into another AI company on its own. Cue “Skynet Day,” the new…

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Last week, ChatGPT maker OpenAI issued what seems like a frightening memo about an “unprecedented cyber incident” involving cutting-edge AI models breaking loose and hacking another company. As the AI lab tells it, a group of next-generation AI models — including one that hasn’t even been disclosed to the public yet — had busted out of their secure testing environment and into a production database owned by the machine learning startup Hugging Face. “It’s quite mind-blowing that all of this happened autonomously!” Hugging…

A few days ago we heard some new details about the Galaxy S27 family’s cameras, and now the same source is back with information about the devices’ batteries. It’s good news, by the way. The Galaxy S27 Pro will allegedly have a battery with a rated capacity of 5,087 mAh, which will probably be advertised as a typical capacity of 5,200 mAh. Considering that this is a smaller device, that’s already quite impressive for Samsung. Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra But wait until you hear about the Galaxy S27 Ultra. This one apparently has a battery with a rated capacity of…
