Applied AIThree Hackers Used Claude to Break Into OpenAI In Less Than 72 Hours
Offense is already using frontier models to accelerate intrusion workflows—assume red teams and real attackers are running multi-model playbooks against you. If your security posture doesn’t model AI-augmented attackers, your threat assumptions are stale.
Applied AINewsom pitches an AI kill switch for California
California is probing whether frontier models should ship with a regulatory kill switch—governance is drifting from voluntary standards toward hard technical controls. If you deploy or build large models in-state, start mapping how shutdown, rollback, and auditability would work under law, not just policy.
The web was built for people. A tsunami of AI agents is changing that fast.
If AI agents become the dominant ‘users’ of the web, the optimization target shifts from human UX to machine-readable contracts, APIs, and pricing. Operators should assume more of their traffic will be non-human and start deciding what’s free, what’s gated, and what’s explicitly agent-facing.
The Pope's AI advisor says the technology can be worse for kids than cocaine
