Google has overhauled its Vulnerability Reward Programs (VRP) for Chrome and Android in response to a surge in the use of AI tools for vulnerability discovery. In the case of the Android and Google Devices VRP, Google is now focusing on vulnerabilities with the highest user impact, and is prioritizing flaw categories that are more difficult for AI tools to find. The tech giant also announced incentivizing actionable reports, explaining, “We are shifting our program focus on Linux kernel vulnerabilities to Google-maintained components unless there is concrete proof of exploitability on Android or our devices. For most vulnerabilities we will…
Your brain is currently expending about a fifth of your body’s energy, and almost none of that is being used for what you’re doing right now. Reading these words, feeling the weight of your body in a chair—all of this together barely changes the rate at which your brain consumes energy, perhaps by as little as 1 percent.The other 99 percent is used on the activity the brain generates on its own: neurons (nerve cells) firing and signaling to each other regardless of whether you’re thinking hard, watching television, dreaming, or simply closing your eyes.Even in the brain areas dedicated…
Oppo unveiled the Find X9 Ultra in China last week, and in our review, we found it to be a great cameraphone with a capable camera system that captures great stills, whether it’s day or night.

I’ve had the same email address for over a decade, and one of my biggest faults is forgetting to unsubscribe from newsletters and companies I may once have been enamored with. In an increasingly busy digital world, the last thing I want to do is sift through roughly 20,000 unread emails that I may or may not need in the future. Plus, I don’t feel like getting scammed by someone in my emails, either. After discovering Inbox Zero, an…

Threat actors are using trojanized shared files to distribute malware via AI distribution platforms such as Hugging Face and ClawHub, Acronis reports. The attacks do not compromise AI agents, but rely on social engineering to trick users into downloading files containing malicious code designed to execute commands, fetch payloads, and install hidden dependencies. The same as other AI distribution platforms, both Hugging Face and ClawHub allow developers to easily share code, and threat actors are abusing users’ trust in them for nefarious purposes. “A key aspect of this activity is the abuse of trust between users, AI agents and external…
Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Elon Musk helped birth OpenAI in 2015, a world-changing AI non-profit which he lavished with tens of millions of dollars alongside its now-CEO Sam Altman. Now in 2026, he’s suing to unwind the entire project with a civil suit, claiming that Altman betrayed the nonprofit’s mission by turning it into a profit-seeking machine — nevermind the fact that Musk also runs his own for-profit AI company, xAI.
