zdnet.com Cesar Cadenas 2025-12-17 02:28:00

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Usually, whenever a new feature comes out for Windows, Microsoft advertises it widely in a blog post to let everyone know. Or if they don't, people discover the feature soon after an update. However, a helpful feature sometimes slips through the cracks, only to be unearthed years later. Also: Hate Windows 11?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-18 02:05:22

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Qualcomm might offer a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and a Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 in the coming months. This suggests another naming convention shakeup of sorts for the brand’s top-tier smartphone processors. Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset late last year, which delivered a major leap forward for Android phones. This also marked a change in naming convention compared to the previous Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. However, it seems like both naming co

AI-powered Cursor IDE vulnerable to prompt-injection attacks

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-12-18 00:00:00

A vulnerability that researchers call CurXecute is present in almost all versions of the AI-powered code editor Cursor, and can be exploited to execute remote code with developer privileges. The security issue is now identified as CVE-2025-54135 and can be leveraged by feeding the AI agent a malicious prompt to trigger attacker-control commands. The Cursor integrated development environment (IDE) relies on AI agents to help developers code faster and more efficiently, allowing them to connect

This Detroit startup is turning to utilities to make home efficiency upgrades cheaper

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-12-18 06:32:04

Ask any homeowner: renovation projects are no fun at all. From finding a contractor to determining a fair price, the process is rife with uncertainty. Plenty of startups have popped up to help homeowners tackle electrification projects, including installing solar panels and replacing gas furnaces with heat pumps.

AI Won’t Boost Human Productivity Yet, U.S. Federal Reserve Says

Generative AI is not just another tech hype cycle that is bound to die down but is instead a game-changer for human productivity, according to the Federal Reserve. The big caveat, though, is the road to get there will be “inherently slow” and “fraught with risk.” In a recent paper published by the Fed Board of Governors, researchers suggest that the hype around generative AI is probably not a bubble in the long run and that the technology will be a serious macroeconomic force, proving to have r

There's a Very Basic Flaw in Mark Zuckerberg's Plan for Superintelligent AI

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-19 15:12:38

This week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared his vision for the future of AI, a "personal intelligence" that can help you "achieve your goals, create what you want to see in the world, experience any adventure, be a better friend to those you care about, and grow to become the person you aspire to be." The hazy announcement — which lacked virtually any degree of detail and smacked of the uninspired output of an AI chatbot — painted a rosy picture of a future where everybody uses our "newfound pro

Two new studies suggest that the genetic “superpowers” underlying this incredible resilience may also be present in the human genome. For these studies, published Thursday, July 31, in the journal Science, researchers at the University of Utah honed in on the specific DNA regions that help hibernators rapidly recover from muscle atrophy, insulin resistance, and brain d
