OpenAI is preparing a significant overhaul of ChatGPT that shifts the platform’s emphasis away from conversational AI and towards agentic tools and coding capabilities, according to a report from the Financial Times. The redesign, which the Financial Times reports could arrive within weeks, reflects a growing internal conviction at OpenAI that the chatbot format has run its course as the company’s primary product focus. That conviction reportedly extends to at least one OpenAI employee describing the situation in stark terms, with the phrase “chat is dead” circulating internally as shorthand for the belief that AI agents represent a more commercially…

I had no real serious use case for TerminalPhone, and it only popped up on my radar when searching for walkie-talkie-type tools for smartphones. But the idea of turning a Linux terminal into a push-to-talk voice and text messenger that works over the Tor network was just too interesting not to want to try to get it working. Most privacy-focused messenger tools try to look like polished modern apps, but TerminalPhone goes completely in the opposite direction.

Anthropic says its Claude Mythos Preview model can build working exploits targeting known vulnerabilities within hours, or even minutes. Announced in early April and promoted as the most capable AI frontier model, Mythos right from the start raised fears regarding its ability to supercharge attacks. In April and May, Anthropic touted its ability to find vulnerabilities, including 271 Firefox flaws and thousands of severe security defects across over 1,000 open source software (OSS) projects. Now, the company says its most advanced model can also weaponize these discoveries, demonstrating that the surge in AI use in cyberattacks increases the threats faced…

New York, United States, June 8th, 2026, TechnologyWire Minimus today announced the general availability of two new capabilities that help organizations secure software dependencies and manage custom container images as code: Minimus Supply Chain Protection and minicli. Minimus Supply Chain Protection addresses the challenge of securely using the tens of millions of packages from the application package universe. These packages have thousands of interwoven dependencies, are often maintained by a single developer, and are updated far less frequently than operating system packages. Existing approaches to secure these packages such as malware scanning and building from source are limited in coverage…

There is a quiet shift in how we experience daily life. In an era of constant notifications and digital noise, our devices shouldn’t compete for our attention. They should rather blend into our rhythm. We want to capture, share, and remember more without reaching for a screen every single minute. Modern technology is constantly bridging the gap between documenting the moment and actually living in it, moving away from bulky and distracting hardware toward invisible integration. L’Atitude 52°N embodies this evolution. It is more than just another smart wearable that sits on your face and overwhelms the senses. It’s where…

A period of unsettled weather brought scattered showers and thunderstorms to California’s Bay Area on May 27, 2026. That afternoon, a break in the clouds left downtown San Francisco and nearby communities beneath mostly cloud-free skies, allowing an astronaut aboard the International Space Station to take this photograph.
