Researchers find evidence of ChatGPT buzzwords turning up in everyday speech

“This research focuses on a central issue in the discourse surrounding AI and language: are these language changes happening because we’re using a tool and repeating what it suggested or is language changing because AI is influencing the human language system?” said assistant professor of computational linguistics and principal investigator Tom Juzek. “By analyzing lexical trends before and after ChatGPT was released in 2022, we found a convergence between human word choices and LLM-associated p

Onimusha: Way of the Sword Interview: Resurrecting a Series After 20 Years

Since its arrival on PlayStation 2 in 2001, the Onimusha series has been recognized for blending a mix of Resident Evil-style action horror with historically inspired Japanese samurai combat.

Beyond GDPR security training: Turning regulation into opportunity

By Eirik Salmi, System Analyst at Passwork Even though 88% of businesses spend over €1 million on GDPR compliance and 40% invest up to €10 million, 80% of their employees still ignore basic password security practices. The formal risk is obvious: GDPR fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover. The informal one is quieter but often far more damaging: lost trust, declining customer loyalty, and disrupted operations. In 2024, European regulators issued fines exceeding €1.2

Playing every game of Wordle simultaneously

If you’ve fallen far enough down the Wordle rabbit hole you may have heard of Quordle, a version of Wordle where you solve four words at once. If you’re looking for more of a challenge, Britannica has you covered with Octordle, where you solve eight words at once. And of course any Wordler worth their salt should be able to handle sixteen words, like in Sedecordle. And no, it doesn’t stop there: Sexaginta-quattuordle isn’t real, it can’t hurt yo– One logical extreme of this trend would be to

Google just made it a whole lot easier to access Password Manager

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google has launched a new Password Manager app. The app makes it faster and easier to access Password Manager on your phone.

Sword of the Sea is a spirited celebration of movement and the sea

There’s a persistent belief that in order for sharks to breathe underwater, they must keep on swimming. While this is partly true for a few species, the myth likely stems from how certain types of fishes (bony fish, if you want to know) need to breathe through constant motion, inhaling and pushing a huge amount of water through their gills as they swim. As the misconception goes, for sharks, much like their aquatic peers, to cease movement is to spell certain death — which is exactly how it feel

Major password managers can leak logins in clickjacking attacks

Six major password managers with tens of millions of users are currently vulnerable to unpatched clickjacking flaws that could allow attackers to steal account credentials, 2FA codes, and credit card details. Threat actors could exploit the security issues when victims visit a malicious page or websites vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) or cache poisoning, where attackers overlay invisible HTML elements over the password manager interface. While users believe they are interacting with h

Combining Resident Evil-style rendered backgrounds with more agile characters, adding in demons, magic and a feudal Japan setting, the series span multiple sequels — and consoles — til the fourth entry in 2006. Roughly two decades (and console eras) later, Capcom has returned to the series, even getting the definitive samurai actor, Tom Cruise Mifune Toshiro, to play the hero, the legendary swordsman Miyamoto Musashi. At Gamescom, the company

Onimusha Way of the Sword Hands-On: Back to the Demon-Killing Samurai Grind

It's been 19 years since Capcom released another game progressing the story of its samurai action horror franchise, Onimusha -- but in 2026, Onimusha: Way of the Sword will arrive as the next game in the series. Ahead of Gamescom, Capcom gave US media a preview of the game with a short 15-minute demo, a mere taste to show us where the next game is going in the two decades since the last mainline Onimusha. Onimusha: Way of the Sword continues the franchise's tradition of basing characters on his
