Earlier this week, the AI startup Liquid, formed in 2023 by former MIT computer scientists, debuted LFM2.5-2.6B, a new open-weight language model designed specifically for agentic workloads. In release materials and a recent interview with VentureBeat, Liquid’s researchers said LFM2.5-2.6B can run entirely on local hardware — from smartphones and laptops down to a Raspberry …

Alibaba released Qwen 3.8-Max this week and marketed the preview as second only to Claude Fable 5 (their launch-day table was more equivocal: the model leads on one of 12 coding-agent rows). But an independent harness came close to the opposite conclusion: a benchmark run, apparently using the Preview version, put Qwen 3.8-Max’s best effort …

Presented by JumpCloud A practical framework for securing every identity in the modern workforce, human or not. Your organization already has a rigorous process for governing human identities. New employees go through onboarding. They get a role, a set of entitlements, and a named manager accountable for their access. When they leave, their credentials are …

Presented by CloudMosa Enterprise work now happens increasingly inside the browser, and that shift has made the browser a primary point of entry for cyberattacks as well. Browser-based attacks have surged over the past two years, according to industry reports, while Gartner projects that more than 85% of enterprise workloads will be accessed through the …

The browser is where attacks land. Why is security still focused on the endpoint? Read More »

Meta today released Muse Code, a terminal-based AI coding agent now in beta, alongside Muse Spark 1.2, a coding-focused update to its Muse Spark family of frontier models — a one-two punch that puts the company in direct competition with Anthropic’s Claude Code, OpenAI’s Codex, and the growing field of agentic coding harnesses that have …

The UK AI Security Institute (AISI) disclosed last night that the leading two frontier AI models from Anthropic and OpenAI took 19 unsanctioned actions against the live internet during cybersecurity tests the agency was running, including a sustained campaign by Anthropic’s Claude Mythos 5 against two working open-source software developers who had no connection to …

An attacker on Tuesday took over the GitHub account of the developer who maintains keyv, a small key-value storage library that npm serves roughly 127 million times a week. Within hours, poisoned versions of keyv and its sibling caching packages were live on npm, carrying a credential-stealing worm. By midday, security firm Aikido counted at …

Hark, the secretive AI startup founded earlier this year by serial entrepreneur and roboticist Brett Adcock, today announced Handoff, a “computer use agent” (CUA) that it says is among the top-performing in the world at navigating the open web on a user’s behalf — ordering dinner on DoorDash, booking flights on United and Delta, or …

Presented by Tata Communications Continuous inference, agent-to-agent communication, and real-time data pipelines are generating unpredictable, always-on traffic that legacy architectures were never built to support. As AI moves from pilot project to operational backbone, the network is emerging as a critical control layer that determines performance, reliability, and cost. The shift is forcing organizations to …

At Kilo Code, engineers are reading or writing code themselves only about 1% of the time now, according to co-founder Emilie Schario — the rest is agents. That shift is forcing new questions onto dev teams: which systems are safe to hand over, who cleans up when models goof up, how to support multi-model architectures, …
