For years, there has been talk and much debate around AI video generation, and it’s been centered primarily on how to produce cinematic-level perfection. That is, making the output look as real as, say, a Hollywood movie. Every technical next step has brought creators closer to that goal: better lighting, more believable faces, and physics that mostly work.  It’s been an impressive endeavor, but many creators are realizing that no matter how amazing the results they get, they still don’t automatically make their tools useful. The last step toward truly real-looking AI video is how much an actual person can…

I’ve probably made this reference once too often, but there’s a joke that despite what the acronym stands for, USB isn’t very universal. There have been many different connector types over the years, not to mention many different speeds, which can leave people scrambling for different cables, or wondering why a file transfer seems to be taking forever. It’s better than what came before, or than Apple’s defunct Lightning format, but that’s not saying much. If you’re here, you’re presumably struggling to figure out why a cable or charger that seems like it should be powering up a device is…

One problem enterprises face is getting employees to actually use the AI agents their dev teams have built. Google, which has already shipped many AI tools through its Workspace apps, has made Google Workspace Studio generally available to give more employees access to design, manage and share AI agents, further democratizing agentic workflows. This puts Google directly in competition with Microsoft’s Copilot and undercuts some integrations that brought OpenAI’s ChatGPT into enterprise applications. Workspace Studio is powered by Gemini 3, and while it primarily targets business teams rather than developers, it offers builders a way to offload lower-priority agent tasks.  “We’ve all lost…

Baltimore, MD, December 2nd, 2025, CyberNewsWire The 2025 State of AI Data Security Report reveals a widening contradiction in enterprise security: AI adoption is nearly universal, yet oversight remains limited. Eighty-three percent of organizations already use AI in daily operations, but only 13 percent say they have strong visibility into how these systems handle sensitive data. Produced by Cybersecurity Insiders with research support from Cyera Research Labs, the study reflects responses from 921 cybersecurity and IT professionals across industries and organization sizes. The data shows AI increasingly behaving as an ungoverned identity — a non-human user that reads faster, accesses…

I’m a big fan of the Watchmen comic and really anything Alan Moore created during his prime as a storyteller. The way that it deconstructs the superhero genre is something that was unheard of at the time it was released. Sure, it’s been done to death now, but it completely broke my brain in the best of ways when I first read it as a kid. When the Watchmen film dropped in 2009, I was also a pretty big fan of that version of it. It didn’t really strike me as an adaptation that failed miserably or anything. However, over…

Just a few short weeks ago, Google debuted its Gemini 3 model, claiming it scored a leadership position in multiple AI benchmarks. But the challenge with vendor-provided benchmarks is that they are just that — vendor-provided. A new vendor-neutral evaluation from Prolific, however, puts Gemini 3 at the top of the leaderboard. This isn't on a set of academic benchmarks; rather, it's on a set of real-world attributes that actual users and organizations care about. Prolific was founded by researchers at the University of Oxford. The company delivers high-quality, reliable human data to power rigorous research and ethical AI development. The…

Select walls at NASA’s Johnson Space Center have been transformed into works of art. Each piece reflects creativity, collaboration, and the spirit of discovery. Painted by Texas students, the murals honor the legacy of the International Space Station and 25 years of continuous human presence in space.  The International Space Station Program Mural Project began in 2022 as part of a broader effort to bring color and inspiration into the workplace while connecting classrooms to NASA’s mission.  “The mural collection is a reminder that today’s dreams can be tomorrow’s realities,” said Space Operations Mission Directorate Deputy Associate Administrator Joel Montalbano.…
