Cyber agencies from three countries including the US have issued a list of security best practices for protecting Microsoft Exchange Server, a venerable on-premises email server that many IT departments still cling to. The advisory, also endorsed by Australia and Canada, comes at a good time: Threat actors are still poking at holes in Exchange Server, and many attacks have succeeded because of old or misconfigured installations. For example, Germany’s Office for Information Security believes nine out of 10 Exchange servers in that country are still running outdated versions of the software. Even hybrid Exchange environments aren’t vulnerability-free. In August, [...]
While enterprises continue to respond to the end of life of Windows 10 and the wide scale adoption of Windows 11, there are signs that some sectors are finding the transformation difficult. A report in Digital Health News revealed that while a UK health authority has managed to upgrade most of its machines to the newer operating system, it is unable to complete the process, as a certain number of devices do not support Windows 11. According to the report, Rotherham Health Trust was faced with a hefty bill to render equipment usable, with one supplier quoting £25,000 (about $32,900) [...]
Many infrastructure and operations leaders aren’t able to dig out enough money from budgets to reallocate to AI projects, Gartner said in a survey released this week. The research firm surveyed 253 IT leaders globally, and the budget issue plagued half the participants. As a result, 54% said they are focusing on AI projects with attainable results and foreseeable cost savings, Gartner said. The projects are mostly in functions “where AI can quickly demonstrate measurable impact,” said Melanie Freeze, research director at Gartner. “We’re seeing the greatest AI momentum in IT service management and digital workplace functions, which are places where [...]
There are plenty of stories out there about how politicians, sales representatives, and influencers, will exaggerate or distort the facts in order to win votes, sales, or clicks, even when they know they shouldn’t. It turns out that AI models, too, can suffer from these decidedly human failings. Two researchers at Stanford University suggest in a new preprint research paper that repeatedly optimizing large language models (LLMs) for such market-driven objectives can lead them to adopt bad behaviors as a side-effect of their training — even when they are instructed to stick to the rules. LLMs are already in use [...]
Apple Intelligence? We still don’t really understand the full extent of Apple’s intentions in AI, and we’re not really going to gain a better glimpse of them until some point in 2026, promised Apple CEO Tim Cook during Thursday’s financial results call. If you follow Apple’s business news, you’ll already know Apple delivered yet another record-setting quarter, with $102 billion in revenue. The company’s forward guidance also calls for iPhone sales that are expected to beat estimates this quarter. Analysts celebrated the news with raised price targets, while shareholders looked toward dividends of 26 cents a share. While we have your [...]

Recent advances in technology and artificial intelligence have brought into popular conversation a term that until recently was reserved for mathematical contexts, a term that most people only remembered, if at all, from a few math classes in high school. Algorithms govern our virtual lives, and this has earned them a bad reputation, linked to biased, dangerous or harmful use. Shedding this reputation is the aim of the latest book byClara Grima, PhD in Mathematics and Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Seville, entitled Con algoritmos y a lo loco (With Algorithms, It’s Crazy). Subtitled “Because algorithms aren’t [...]
When you really stop and think about it, a new Android version is kinda like a cake: It’s filled with all sorts of different layers, textures, and toppings — and when it’s especially well-made, you find yourself encountering pleasant new nuances with every next bite. Plus, you can really only digest a certain amount in any one sitting. It takes time to get through the whole thing and appreciate its finer flavors. Oh — and no matter what, a little more chocolate is never a bad thing. All right, so that last part of my analogy didn’t quite hold up [...]
A Silicon Valley company called 1X this week announced a humanoid robot that does all your housework. The robot is called NEO. The company says NEO is the world’s first consumer-ready humanoid robot for the home. It is designed to automate routine chores and offer personal help so you can spend time on other things. The company’s odd, 70’s style demonstration video shows NEO doing a long list of tasks, such as folding laundry, organizing shelves, taking out the trash, and cleaning up rooms. It also performs basic functions such as opening doors, fetching items, and turning off lights, and is shown dancing and hanging out — acting [...]
OpenAI’s decision to train its models on the everyday outputs of consultants and bankers is more than just a technical experiment, it’s a signal that AI is being repositioned from a generic tool to a domain-capable resource, Sanchit Vir Gogia, the chief analyst, founder and CEO of Greyhound Research said Thursday. He was responding to reports of a project from OpenAI that is being developed for the management consulting sector. According to Bloomberg, upwards of 150 former consultants from McKinsey & Co., Bain & Co., and Boston Consulting have been contracted by a third-party to train the models on “how to [...]
