Intuit has lost more than 40% of its market cap since the beginning of the year. It's not alone. Many established SaaS players have seen their stock prices fall in recent months, including Adobe and IBM — the latter experiencing its most significant one-day drop (roughly $40 billion) with Anthropic's announcement that Claude could now read, analyze and translate legacy COBOL into modern languages...
Despite political turmoil in the U.S. AI sector, in China, the AI advances are continuing apace without a hitch.Earlier today, e-commerce giant Alibaba's Qwen Team of AI researchers, focused primarily on developing and releasing to the world a growing family of powerful and capable Qwen open source language and multimodal AI models, unveiled its newest batch, the Qwen3.5 Small Model Series, which...
Most people don’t appreciate the profound threat that AI will soon pose to human agency. A common refrain is that “AI is just a tool,” and like any tool, its benefits and dangers depend on how people use it. This is old-school thinking. AI is transitioning from tools we use to prosthetics we wear. This will create significant new threats we’re just not prepared for.No, I’m not talking about...
AI is evolving beyond a helpful tool to an autonomous agent, creating new risks for cybersecurity systems. Alignment faking is a new threat where AI essentially “lies” to developers during the training process. Traditional cybersecurity measures are unprepared to address this new development. However, understanding the reasons behind this behavior and implementing new methods of training and...
Most discussions about vibe coding usually position generative AI as a backup singer rather than the frontman: Helpful as a performer to jump-start ideas, sketch early code structures and explore new directions more quickly. Caution is often urged regarding its suitability for production systems where determinism, testability and operational reliability are non-negotiable. However, my latest...

Trump and the White House posted on social media ordering all federal agencies to immediately cease using technology from Anthropic, the maker of the powerful Claude family of AI models, after...
For the past year, the enterprise AI community has been locked in a debate about how much freedom to give AI agents. Too little, and you get expensive workflow automation that barely justifies the "agent" label. Too much, and you get the kind of data-wiping disasters that plagued early adopters of tools like OpenClaw. This week, Google Labs released an update to Opal, its no-code visual agent...
The landscape of enterprise artificial intelligence shifted fundamentally today as OpenAI announced $110 billion in new funding from three of tech's largest firms: $30 billion from SoftBank, $30 billion from Nvidia, and $50 billion from Amazon.But while the former two players are providing money, OpenAI is going further with Amazon in a new direction, establishing an upcoming fully "Stateful...
AI agents now carry more access and more connections to enterprise systems than any other software in the environment. That makes them a bigger attack surface than anything security teams have had to govern before, and the industry doesn't yet have a framework for it. "If that attack vector gets utilized, it can result in a data breach, or even worse," said Spiros Xanthos, founder and CEO of...
Former Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey's new company Block — the parent of merchants payment system Square, mobile peer-to-peer payments Cash App, music streamer Tidal, and open source AI orchestration system Goose — is sending shockwaves across the business world tonight after announcing a more than 40% headcount, cutting its workforce by more than 4,000 people out of a prior total of 10,000,...
