‘Darth Vader’ Wants You to Know He Definitely Supports Flock Surveillance
Anthony Ralphs was frustrated by the San Diego City Council’s support for Flock. He decided it would take something more than reasoned argument to get their attention.
Major security weaknesses found in leading open-weight LLMs
Safety protections built into some of the world’s most widely used artificial intelligence (AI) models can be stripped away with alarming ease, according to a new international study.
Time saver while learning how to prompt Minimax.
Rather than relying on Z-image, or a different program to wrangle up a first frame, I’ve been using Minimax for the whole process, and the results have been pretty instructive. It’s not a perfect system, but being able to take advantage of its understanding of people, references, and shot composition for the first frame produces …

Integrating Agentic AI with Existing Machine Learning Pipelines
In this article, you will learn how to combine a classical machine learning pipeline with an agentic AI system to build a hybrid, autonomous customer…
Beyond Visual CoT: Internalized Visual Thinking for Proactive Video Reasoning
Multimodal large language models increasingly use visual chain-of-thought (Visual CoT) to reason about spatial, temporal, and embodied environments. By generating intermediate reasoning images, Visual CoT provides an intuitive mechanism for visual foresight but introduces substantial inference overhead, which is particularly problematic for proactive video reasoning. We ask whether models can learn to think visually during …

Bitdefender VPN Review: Fast and Affordable Privacy
Bitdefender VPN has an excellent starting price, even if it lacks the advanced features that privacy nerds may want.
From X-ray speckles to solar magnetic fields, AI shrinks data while keeping crucial details
Next-generation science experiments will collect more data than ever—so much so that they’ll surpass the capabilities of current data storage and analysis methods. To help, researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory developed an AI method to compress large amounts of raw data without losing subtle details critical to scientific discovery. They …
