The Psyche probe, launched in October 2023 on its way to the metallic asteroid it studies, recently performed a flyby of Mars to take advantage of its gravitational pull and continue its trajectory toward the asteroid belt. During the maneuver, the spacecraft obtained new images of the red planet.Psyche passed within 4,609 kilometers, or 2,864 miles, of the Martian surface, and was boosted to a higher velocity after completing the gravity assist. On the approach, NASA activated onboard cameras, magnetometers, and gamma ray and neutron spectrometers to calibrate each instrument using the planet’s atmosphere and terrain.In recent images released by…
Disaggregated infrastructure is displacing the all-in-one data center stack — and the economics of AI are making that reality impossible to ignore. The vast majority of enterprise data still resides on-premises, making it a natural anchor for the next wave of AI deployments. As organizations race to operationalize agentic AI, the operational complexity and rigid cost structures of legacy hyperconverged infrastructure are increasingly hard to justify, according to Travis Vigil (pictured, left), senior vice president of product management at Dell Technologies Inc. The alternative Dell is pushing is disaggregated infrastructure — separating compute from storage so enterprises can scale each on…
Our social media feeds are being inundated by clips. Big names like Justin Bieber, reality shows like RuPaul’s Drag Race, and even AI companies like Perplexity — they’re all using bite-sized video segments to advertise themselves on social media. And they’re not just posting from their own accounts; they’re paying thousands of anonymous people to do it for them.This practice, a marketing tactic known as clipping, is everywhere — and still spreading. The Verge’s Mia Sato recently wrote a piece breaking down how the practice works and how it might be an existential threat to more nuanced, full-length content.Sato spoke…
Ravie LakshmananMay 23, 2026Artificial Intelligence / Vulnerability Anthropic on Friday disclosed that Project Glasswing has helped uncover more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities across some of the most “systemically” important software across the world since the cybersecurity initiative went live last month. Project Glasswing is a defensive effort launched by the artificial intelligence (AI) company to secure critical global software infrastructure. It grants a small set of about 50 partners exclusive, early access to Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with capabilities to autonomously identify vulnerabilities in widely-used software before bad actors can exploit them. Of these vulnerabilities, 6,202…
For a long time, the laptop buying advice was simple enough. Windows had a more versatile portfolio that brought you affordable, mid-range, high-end, and even gaming options, while MacBooks were known as the easy premium recommendation. But owing to the pricing circus caused by memory shortages and component price hikes, the equation makes no sense anymore. Apple has always had an aspirational pull with its products, including the Mac. The appeal was the sleek hardware, the tighter software experience, and an ecosystem that makes you feel comfortable after getting in. Pricing was the one aspect that pushed people back towards…
Spiders? Skeletons? Bad omens? My kind of party. khvoshch I almost don’t want to call Meshchera a match-three game because I fear that kind of undersells how captivating it is. But, it is a game you play within a six by six grid, in which you have to group matching tiles in clusters of three or more so they may merge and become other, higher value tiles, so that’s the description we’re working with. The atmosphere is off the charts, though, which isn’t something I’m used to finding in these types of games. It has gorgeously…
Memorial DaY brings discounts to the mattress models we test all year long, and the sales are going strong. As a seasoned deal hunter, I know that mattresses go on sale pretty often, but whenever someone asks me the best time to buy, I tell them to wait until Memorial Day or Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If you’ve been in the market for a new mattress, now’s the time to act.The WIRED Reviews team thoroughly tests the best mattresses long-term. We don’t conduct “nap tests” or base recommendations on first impressions. Our top picks are tried-and-true, and they’re on…
It depends on the needs of your organization; there is no one-size-fits-all solution. When selecting a solution, many criteria must be kept in mind. These include the size of an organization, network complexity, threat landscape, and regulatory compliance—in addition to technical capabilities and budget—and most importantly, the type of data you handle. Most of the firms combine solutions such as firewalls, IDS/IPS, NDR, EDR, and DLP to secure their network. Additionally, a virtual private network (VPN) plays a crucial role in securing connections between devices and networks, particularly for remote access scenarios. However, before choosing a solution, ensure that it is based…
CNETI don’t know how much of my life has been spent hovering over a grill, stove, smoker or oven trying to figure out if the thing I’m cooking for family and friends is actually ready, but I can tell you it’s more than it needed to be. Last year, I picked up one of these Chef iQ wireless probes for a big dinner I was hosting, and now I pull these things out to use them at least once a week. Today, you can get them for way less than I did. This kit is a pair of Chef iQ probes…
AI in financial services has stopped being just another technology tool and started becoming a measure of operational readiness. In 2025, 45% of IT decision-makers ranked generative AI tools as their top budget priority. By 2026, nearly 100% of financial services respondents said their AI budgets would increase or hold steady, with 41% focusing investment on optimizing AI workflows already in production. Now the bill is coming due: Financial firms have to turn AI experiments into production systems that can spot risk, accelerate decisions and move faster than legacy processes allow. Of course, the strategic question is becoming less about…
