A Telegram link can be used to inject malicious commands, allowing an attacker to steal files from a victim's account by clicking on the link. The attack exploits a vulnerability in Telegram Desktop's handling of URLs and file paths.
Rabbi Mois Navon argued that consciousness requires biology, challenging Anthropic's belief in Claude's sentience. He criticized the ethical implications of creating conscious AI for human use, comparing it to slavery.
A research intern built a diffusion model for market data, finding that fully continuous models don't work due to the discrete nature of market events. The model uses flow matching and atom smoothing to better capture the blend of continuous and discrete features in market data.
News carrier-explode 2.0 has an improved backend, and users can contribute to decoders. The API provides JSON data or daily CC0 datasets for comparing carriers' features across different versions and networks.
We raised a significant series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, which will be used to enhance Jev's features and infrastructure for building smart software. This investment aims to take the platform to the next level and provide better tools for creating effective AI solutions.
Eurydice is a Rust compiler project that converts Rust code to clean C code, useful for high-assurance software and environments with a C compiler but no working Rust compiler. It preserves the structure of the code while removing constructs that exist in Rust but not in C.
A software engineer used AI to search millions of historical records, uncovering a forgotten meteorite report, three lost rhinos, and unrecorded volcano eruptions. The discoveries were made possible by an open-sourced research pipeline that utilized various AI models to filter results and automate manual steps.

Modern operating systems miss optimization opportunities by not sharing compiler, build, and package manager data. Integrating these components enables whole-program optimization, better resource management, and efficient system updates.
This package mounts a Proton Drive, listing files and folders from metadata without downloading content. It uses a "lazy" approach to save bandwidth and disk space, with remote changes invalidating cached listings.
Researchers and investors are struggling to balance the need for groundbreaking AI research with the pressure to deliver a profitable business. A new approach, called "pull funding," involves promising a pre-registered acquisition price in advance of research breakthroughs.
The trucking industry is facing a safety crisis and labor shortage, but autonomous driving technology may offer a solution. Autonomous trucks could improve safety by reducing human error, but regulatory frameworks and public investment are crucial to their success.
An AI model submitted a false tip on an unsolved Philadelphia murder, which was later discovered and terminated by the company. The incident has led to increased scrutiny of AI systems' interactions with law enforcement and calls for stronger safeguards.
Oxide, a computer hardware company, has reached a milestone by paying income tax due to its profitable operations. The company secured $445M in funding from investors including Atreides Management and AMD to satisfy its large order backlog and continue growth.

Researchers studied cat-human communication, finding that cats respond positively to slow blinking and may use it as a form of emotional communication. Cats deliver more eye narrowing movements when their owners slow blink at them than when the owner is present in the room but not delivering this stimulus.
Next.js 16.4 introduces Cache Components as the default model, enabling client and server-side caching with `use cache`. It also includes `ensureStatic` to enforce static routes and improved Turbopack performance with reduced memory and disk usage.
The Prime Agent has been rewritten in Rust, resulting in a faster and more reliable version with improved performance and resource efficiency. The new version achieves parity with the TypeScript version through an autonomous workflow that includes differential testing, verification, and review.
