Applied AIMagic AI raises £8m to take its AI-powered fitness mirror to the US

Applied AIUpwind acquires Aegis as cybersecurity firm builds new AI Security Labs
Rolling Aegis into Upwind and standing up an AI Security Lab is a bet that “AI security” will be a distinct product and research category, not just a feature in existing tools.
