Precision diarization, real-time transcription, and a new audio playground.
We are excited to introduce the Waymo World Model, a frontier generative model that sets a new bar for large-scale, hyper-realistic autonomous driving simulation.
The same capabilities that make OpenClaw a groundbreaking tool also make it an urgent security risk. This blog contains confirmed examples of agent skills being used as malware vectors, and advice on how to protect yourself if you're experimenting with them.
To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl acetate. However, some laboratories are not allowed to use this highly toxic and radioactive substance for safety reasons.
Like many organizations, Wiki Education has grappled with generative AI, its impacts, opportunities, and threats, for several years. As an organization that runs large-scale programs to bring new e…
In iOS 26.3, Apple introduced a new privacy feature which limits “precise location” data made available to cellular networks via cell towers. The feature is only available to devices with Apple’s in-house modem introduced in 2025. The announcement1 says https://support.apple.com/en-us/126101 ↩
If hyperscalers and chip companies don’t build up a TSMC competitor they are set to forego billions of dollars in revenue and stunt the AI revolution.

We're introducing SAM Audio, a state-of-the-art AI model that enables you to segment sound.
If you were 5 microseconds late today, blame it on NIST. Their facility in Boulder Colorado just had its power cut for multiple days. After a backup generator failed, their main ensemble clock lost track of UTC, or Universal Time Coordinated. But even if you used the NTP timing servers they run, they were never off by more than 5 microseconds. 5 μs might seem insignificant. But it is significant for scientists and universities who rely on NIST's more specialized timing signals.
Flock left at least 60 of its people-tracking Condor PTZ cameras live streaming and exposed to the open internet.

Before we all mute the word 'dithering' I thought I'd explain a little bit about why we needed to dither digital images in the first place. Although it's an aesthetic now, we used to need dithering to trick our eyes into seeing more colors than were actually there. 👇
Extreme elimination diets and similar drastic measures can cause unnecessary stress when many allergy issues could benefit from more thoughtful management.
Supply chain attacks exploit fundamental trust assumptions in modern software development, from typosquatting to compromised build pipelines, while new defensive tools are emerging to make these trust relationships explicit and verifiable.
