AI is accelerating innovation across industries. But the same acceleration is beginning to worry national security experts. A new warning from the UK government is forcing a difficult question into the open. What happens when powerful AI systems start lowering the barrier to building biological weapons? According to a government assessment, advanced AI tools could enable individuals with limited scientific training to design biological weapons within the next two years. The concern is not that AI will create pathogens on its own. The concern is that it could dramatically reduce the expertise required to do it. Large language models are…
I never thought listening to vivid descriptions of crime, murder, and World War II would be the solution to my chronic insomnia. But, here we are.Nowadays, falling asleep can feel like an unending nightly battle with our phones and always-on culture. Which is why the rise of podcasts designed to help you fall asleep is so unexpected, turning a big source of our insomnia (cellphones) into the tool we need to doze off.The most famous one, Sleep With Me, blew up over the last few years, topping Apple’s podcast charts week after week. It’s success led to a whole cottage…
Ravie LakshmananMar 07, 2026DevSecOps / Artificial Intelligence OpenAI on Friday began rolling out Codex Security, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered security agent that’s designed to find, validate, and propose fixes for vulnerabilities. The feature is available in a research preview to ChatGPT Pro, Enterprise, Business, and Edu customers via the Codex web with free usage for the next month. “It builds deep context about your project to identify complex vulnerabilities that other agentic tools miss, surfacing higher-confidence findings with fixes that meaningfully improve the security of your system while sparing you from the noise of insignificant bugs,” the company said. Codex…
New research involving scientists from Anthropic and ETH Zurich suggests that modern artificial intelligence systems could identify the real-world identities behind supposedly anonymous internet accounts. The study, published as a preprint on arXiv, shows that large language models (LLMs) may be capable of analyzing online activity and linking pseudonymous profiles to real individuals at scale. The research, titled Large-scale online deanonymization with LLMs, explores how AI agents can automate the process of deanonymization – the act of connecting anonymous or pseudonymous online accounts to real identities. Traditionally, this process required significant manual investigation by analysts who searched through posts, writing…
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today’s physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D sketches into 3D models that they can then test and refine before sending a final version to a production line. But the software is notoriously complicated to learn, with thousands of commands to choose from. To be truly proficient in the software takes a huge amount of time and practice.MIT engineers are looking to ease CAD’s learning curve with an AI model that uses CAD software much like a human would. Given a 2D sketch of an object, the model…
Fewer couples are getting married, and it has impacted The Chinese Wedding Shop’s sales Marriage has long been seen as an important union between two families across cultures. But in Singapore, fewer couples are choosing to tie the knot. Recently released figures show that marriages in Singapore fell by about 6.2%, from 26,328 in 2024 to 24,687 in 2025. This decline follows a broader drop after the country hit a record peak of 29,389 marriages in 2022. After a 30% increase from 2020 to 2022, there has been an almost 16% drop in the total number of marriages in Singapore…
There’s a reason we’re called WIRED. If there’s one thing most of today’s gadgets have in common, it’s that they typically need to be plugged in from time to time. But all those cables, cords, and wires can be tough to manage. They don’t have to end up in a tangled nest under your desk; you can bring order to the cable chaos.As a gadget reviewer, I have more cords than most people, which is why I also have a regimented cable management strategy to keep everything orderly. Here are my tips and product recommendations for hiding those cords and…
Introduction Developer tools rarely cause as much excitement—and fear—as OpenClaw. Launched in November 2025 and renamed twice before settling on its crustacean‑inspired moniker, it swiftly became the most‑starred GitHub project. OpenClaw is an open‑source AI agent that lives on your own hardware and connects to large language models (LLMs) like Anthropic’s Claude or OpenAI’s GPT. Unlike a typical chatbot that forgets you as soon as the tab closes, OpenClaw remembers everything—preferences, ongoing projects, last week’s bug report—and can act on your behalf across multiple communication channels. Its appeal lies in turning a passive bot into an assistant with hands and…
Seattle-based Rad Power Bikes went bankrupt and was acquired by Life Electric Vehicles Holdings of Florida. (Rad Power Bikes Photo) Robert Provost has big plans for Rad Power Bikes, the recently bankrupt Seattle-based electric bike maker that he thinks can reclaim its industry dominance — and grow even larger. In an interview with GeekWire on Friday, Provost, the CEO of South Florida-based Life Electric Vehicles Holdings, Inc., laid out an ambitious roadmap to overhaul Rad following his company’s acquisition of the startup’s assets, which closed this week. “It’s not a continuation of Rad Power, more like a phoenix,” Provost said. “The…
Anthropic PBC today launched an e-commerce store that will enable enterprise customers to buy software from third parties. The Claude Marketplace features services that use the company’s eponymous large language model series. The initial catalog includes products from six partners: Snowflake Inc., GitLab Inc., Harvey AI Corp., Rogo Inc., Replit Inc. and Lovable Labs Inc. The latter two companies both provide artificial intelligence platforms that speed up application development. Lovable’s tool enables nontechnical workers to create websites and simple apps with prompts. Replit also includes a natural language interface, but focuses on more technical users. Harvey and Rogo, in turn,…
