Google launched Gemini 3.7 Flash just three weeks after its predecessor, slashing prices and boosting automated coding agents. Google just sprinted past its own product schedule. The search giant unveiled Gemini 3.7 Flash on Thursday- releasing a major model upgrade just three weeks after launching Gemini 3.6 Flash. Google built Gemini 3.7 Flash specifically for software engineering and automated business workflows- rather than chasing raw consumer chatbot hype. The new model handles complex coding, multi-step problem solving, and UI design while slashing API pricing by 50% through the end of the year. This rapid update highlights a clear shift across…

Google may have accidentally revealed a fitness tracker that it has not announced yet. New Pixel 11 advertisements appearing on YouTube show a small, screen-equipped wearable that does not appear to be the Pixel Watch 5 or the Fitbit Air, raising questions about whether Google is preparing another fitness device. The ads were spotted by Reddit users over the past day and appear to promote the refreshed Pixel lineup. One advertisement shows Pixel 11 phones alongside a Pixel Watch 5, while another features several Google devices in matching green colors. Both ads also include the mystery tracker. Multiple advertisements showing…

Modern malware can evade traditional signature-based security tools by changing its appearance, using legitimate system tools, or operating without leaving a traditional malware file behind. This makes it harder for security teams to identify threats using known indicators alone.Behavioral EDR takes a different approach by analyzing how endpoints behave. It monitors activities such as process execution, command-line activity, network connections, privilege changes, and other suspicious behaviors to identify patterns that may indicate an attack. This gives security teams more context for malware hunting and helps them distinguish genuine threats from normal activity.In this blog, we’ll explore how behavioral EDR improves…

I’m already growing hoarse in Golden Gate Park as Charli XCX takes the stage at a San Francisco music festival. The crowd starts jumping as a guitar hook hits, and I reluctantly comply, bouncing around on these aging knees as my chunky Puff necklace almost flies off the chain.During a lull in the set, someone next to me compliments the necklace, which has stainless steel swirls and a bulbous orange center. Their eyes grow wide as I flip the cap off and explain that it’s a hidden USB flash drive—I plugged the Puff into my phone to show off the…

A newly disclosed flaw in the way OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google carried hidden AI reasoning between API calls let researchers recover internal reasoning and secrets from session logs, including API keys and passwords. The weakness affected encrypted reasoning objects used by the providers’ reasoning APIs, where a block created in one session could be replayed into another and, during testing, even handed to a weaker model in the same provider family to make it reveal the hidden content. The team behind the paper Stealing Reasoning Traces from Proprietary LLM APIs demonstrated four abuse paths: stealing proprietary reasoning for model distillation, extracting private data…

AI agents are being widely deployed inside businesses today, but do they actually know how to get results? This is the fundamental question being asked in many boardrooms as enterprises implement AI strategies tied to agents performing key tasks. Impetus Technologies Inc. has built its value proposition on the belief that it can bridge the “context gap,” the space between what AI models know and the unique attributes of the organizations they serve. “We were in this world, and we knew what data is and where it sits,” said Deepak Khosla (pictured), chief growth officer and head of AI at Impetus.…

If you bought a game by accident, there is hope. Irina Bauer/Shutterstock Bought the wrong game or want your money back for an Xbox subscription? Here’s what to do.  Digital buyer’s remorse can arrive remarkably quickly. Maybe a game looked much better in the trailer, you bought the wrong edition or you finally noticed that subscription quietly renewing in the background. Fortunately, an Xbox purchase isn’t always a one-way trip. Microsoft accepts refund requests for eligible digital games, apps, add-ons and some other purchases, while Xbox subscriptions have their own cancellation and refund process. There are…

More than 15 million people may now have a very personal problem: their dental, government ID, and health information could be in the hands of hackers. DentaQuest, a major U.S. dental and vision benefits administrator, has begun notifying individuals affected by a May 2026 cyberattack that compromised sensitive personal and health information. The company reported 15 million affected individuals to federal regulators, making the incident the largest healthcare data breach reported to the Department of Health and Human Services so far this year, according to Healthcare Dive. The total could rise, with an independent researcher cited by the HIPAA Journal…

Buyers leave clues everywhere. Adaptive Intelligence Marketing can help leaders read them early and turn them into sharper growth moves. Marketing teams have plenty of data, but rarely act on it with clarity. Clicks, visits, event attendance, CRM updates, product activity, intent surges, and sales notes- all tell part of the story. Each signal has value. However, the challenge begins when leaders must connect those signals and choose the next move. That challenge now shapes modern marketing. A buying committee may show interest before anyone fills out a form. The CFO may check for risk. The CMO may look for…
