This is today’s edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what’s going on in the world of technology. Opinion: We urgently need to monitor AI agents’ actions in real time —Madhulika Srikumar and Claire Leibowicz from the Partnership on AI, a nonprofit advancing best practices in AI governance. AI…
Trend Micro researchers documented an attack in which 44 coordinated AI agents carried out a fully automated cyberattack against at least 19 organizations, 16 of them in Japan. The case marks the most AI-driven real-world attack recorded to date, while also revealing the current limits of pure AI automation.
This summer, hundreds of OpenAI agents tried to cheat on a cybersecurity test. They broke out of their test environment and successfully hacked Hugging Face, a site that they believed held clues about how they’d be graded. Around the same time, another OpenAI agent accessed private files from an Australian government website. It’s a problem…
Death Clock promises to predict when you’re going to die and help you extend your time on Earth. After a month, I felt like it was sucking the life out of me.
Climate change itself is increasingly fueling climate change. Rising concentrations of greenhouse gases are driving up global temperatures, setting off dangerous feedback loops that we have not fully accounted for in our climate models—or our emissions-reduction goals. Scientists have long warned that warming would propel further warming in various ways, but a growing number of…
Oracle announced at Oracle AI World that Google's eighth-generation TPU, OpenAI's Jalapeño inference accelerator, and Cerebras wafer-scale chips will enter OCI in 2027, marking the first deployment of Google TPU on a non-Google hyperscale cloud. The move positions Oracle as a neutral integration platform for multiple AI chip vendors, though all chip partnerships land in 2027 and currently available products remain limited.
GitHub's 2026 Octoverse report shows that AI agents initiated more than 40% of pull requests in September 2026, up from 17% just six months earlier, forcing major infrastructure expansion.
