It’s not necessarily the guys you might expect, Apollo Knapp told me.These are 6-foot-tall high-school athletes, guys who are social and popular. “They’re the type of people that are friends with everybody, who get dapped up in the hallway every two feet,” said Knapp, an 18-year-old high school senior in Ohio and a board member at sexual violence prevention nonprofit SafeBAE.But at his school, these are the guys using AI to help them talk to girls. They’ll paste their texts into ChatGPT for feedback before sending, he said. Or, they’ll send their own photos to ChatGPT and ask, “am I…

The content problem in SaaS is not an AI problem. It never was. It is an honesty problem. And until teams start treating content as a thinking tool instead of a traffic machine, nothing changes. Somewhere along the way, SaaS content marketing strategy became a race to publish more of the same thing faster, something many teams now try to fix with frameworks like the SaaS content marketing playbook. Ten tips for improving your pipeline. Five ways to reduce churn. The ultimate guide to something nobody asked you to be the ultimate authority on. And now everyone is blaming AI…

Introduction API builders have seen an explosion of model choices. Gigantic language models once dominated, but the past two years have seen a surge of small language models (SLMs)—systems with tens of millions to a few billion parameters—that offer impressive capabilities at a fraction of the cost and hardware footprint. As of March 2026, pricing for frontier models still ranges from $15–$75 per million tokens, but cost‑efficient mini models now deliver near‑state‑of‑the‑art accuracy for under $1 per million tokens. Clarifai’s Reasoning Engine, for example, produces 544 tokens per second and charges only $0.16 per million tokens—two important metrics that signal how…

Today the White House announced that several major players in tech and AI have agreed to steps that will keep electricity costs from rising due to data centers. Under this Ratepayer Protection Pledge, companies are agreeing to practices that are intended to protect residents from seeing higher electricity costs as more and more businesses create power-hungry data centers. Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, Oracle and xAI have all apparently signed on. A few of the participants — Amazon, Google and Meta — had conveniently timed press releases patting themselves on the back for their participation and touting whatever other policies…

Tycoon 2FA, one of the prominent phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) toolkits that allowed cybercriminals to stage adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) credential harvesting attacks at scale, was dismantled by a coalition of law enforcement agencies and security companies. The subscription-based phishing kit, which first emerged in August 2023, was described by Europol as one of the largest phishing operations worldwide. The kit was available for a starting price of $120 for 10 days or $350 for access to a web-based administration panel for a month. The panel serves as a hub for configuring, tracking, and refining campaigns. It features pre‑built templates, attachment files for common…

The Samsung Galaxy S26, OnePlus 15, and Google Pixel 10 all land within shouting distance of each other on price, run the same operating system, and target roughly the same buyer. But spend any real time with them and it becomes clear that each one is making a completely different argument for why you should hand over your money. This piece breaks down where each phone genuinely earns its price tag — hardware, software, cameras, battery, and everything in between — so you don’t have to figure it out the hard way. Price and availability The Galaxy S26 and OnePlus…

The race to build AI infrastructure has gobbled up so much memory that prices have skyrocketed, with analysts predicting that product costs will rise as a result. But the outlook is far worse than anticipated. New reports and forecasts suggest that the RAM shortage could prompt manufacturers of cheaper devices to reduce or even stop production for some time.Smartphone shipments are expected to drop by 13% through 2026 compared with last year, according to the International Data Corporation. This won’t just be a temporary crisis, but “a tsunami-like shock originating in the memory supply chain, with ripple effects spreading across…

Today, Apple announced its new budget MacBook. At $599, it looks seriously impressive. While I haven’t tested its performance, battery life, or display just yet, it may end up being hard to beat at that price based on some of the specs alone.But that doesn’t mean the competition isn’t there. I want to recommend a couple of Windows laptops deals that offer various advantages over the MacBook Neo, showing where the Neo has both strengths and weaknesses.First, check out this Asus Vivobook 14, a laptop I’ve been happy to recommend as a budget computer for the past year. In many…

Human-only SOCs are unsustainable, but AI-only SOCs are still well out of reach of current technology. The industry has answered by increasingly adopting hybrid approaches. Today, hybrid SOCs are the method of choice for teams looking to leverage the capabilities of AI while keeping their feet firmly on the ground. Humans at the controls. AI doing the boring work. Everything coming together—but faster, more accurately, and with a sense of judgement at the helm. Meet the hybrid SOC – a model where AI agents answer to humans – and find out why these half-human, half-machine teams are redefining cybersecurity. Losing…

The thing is that cloud native data protection is really crucial now.The clouds are growing fast and that means there are more ways for hackers to get in and cause trouble. The cloud is getting bigger, which is a problem because it gives hackers opportunities to launch attacks on the cloud. This is something that a lot of people are worried about because the cloud is used by so many people and companies. The cloud is a target, for hackers and as the cloud continues to grow the cloud will become an even bigger target.Cloud workloads are over the place,…
