Since the late 2000s, HDMI has been the go-to cable and port for connecting devices to your TV. I still remember the first time I used one and how amazing it was that a single cable could replace all the RCA cords I had used for years with my PS2, Wii, and DVD player. I’ll never forget plugging my Xbox 360 into my TV with HDMI for the first time and being amazed by the picture and sound quality. Fast-forward about 20 years, and HDMI is still the dominant port on most TVs. Its popularity stems from its versatility, as…
The Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has published details of the first notification of a personal data protection breach executed by design through an AI agent. Investigation into the attack is continuing, and the AEPD uses its words carefully. Nevertheless, although AI-assisted attacks have become common (deepfakes, authoring phishing emails, scaling attacks through automation, etcetera), this appears to be the first known agentic attack outside of a rogue frontier model agent. Bad actor agents are moving beyond a theoretical probability into the real world. The attack itself involved a successful login, followed by a search for vulnerabilities, and the ability…
Incumbents are racing to add AI to their organizations. The bigger challenge is competing with businesses designed around AI from day one.

Incumbents are largely using AI to improve organizations built for an earlier era. AI-native competitors can rethink the organization itself: its workflows, staffing,…

When it comes to playing videos on a PC, the majority of us would simply get VLC as a media player. You don’t have to pay for anything and don’t have to go through a barrage of ads just to play a video. VLC is free, supports almost all devices, and is an easy-to-use media player that has several hidden features. It has never once let me down on format support. But every time I open it, the interface usually makes me feel like I am opening something ancient. Recently, I swapped it for Screenbox, and it has made me…
