Google DeepMind’s AI systems have taken big scientific strides in recent years — from predicting the 3D structures of almost every known protein in the universe to forecasting weather more accurately than ever before. The UK-based lab today unveiled its latest advancement: AlphaEvolve, an AI coding agent that makes large language models (LLMs) like Gemini better at solving complex computing and mathematical problems. AlphaEvolve is powered by the same models that it’s trying to improve. Using Gemini, the agent proposes programs — written in code — that try to solve a given problem. It runs each code snippet through automated…This story continues at The Next Web [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain br [...]
Creating self-improving AI systems is an important step toward deploying agents in dynamic environments, especially in enterprise production environments, where tasks are not always predictable, nor c [...]
“You can deceive, manipulate, and lie. That’s an inherent property of language. It’s a feature, not a flaw,” CrowdStrike CTO Elia Zaitsev told VentureBeat in an exclusive interview at RSA Conf [...]
A security researcher, working with colleagues at Johns Hopkins University, opened a GitHub pull request, typed a malicious instruction into the PR title, and watched Anthropic’s Claude Code Securit [...]
Adversaries injected malicious prompts into legitimate AI tools at more than 90 organizations in 2025, stealing credentials and cryptocurrency. Every one of those compromised tools could read data, an [...]
Our LLM API bill was growing 30% month-over-month. Traffic was increasing, but not that fast. When I analyzed our query logs, I found the real problem: Users ask the same questions in different ways.& [...]
Enterprise teams building multi-agent AI systems may be paying a compute premium for gains that don't hold up under equal-budget conditions. New Stanford University research finds that single-age [...]
Microsoft assigned CVE-2026-21520, a CVSS 7.5 indirect prompt injection vulnerability, to Copilot Studio. Capsule Security discovered the flaw, coordinated disclosure with Microsoft, and the patch was [...]
