I changed these 12 settings on my Android phone to greatly extend its battery life

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. I've spent large portions of my life looking for ways to extend the battery life on my Android phones. Admittedly, that sounds rather dramatic, but growing up with only budget models meant I was constantly tweaking device settings to squeeze every bit of juice out of their batteries. Thanks to this micromanaging, I successfully pushed the batteries on all my past smartphones to their absolute limit. I don't want to hoard th

Bridging the Governance Gap: AI, Risk, and Enterprise Innovation

computer.org Laurel Tweed 2025-10-28 21:00:05

Artificial intelligence (AI) is redrawing the boundaries of IT governance. Traditional frameworks built around predictability, transparency, and linear systems are ill-suited to AI and machine learning models’ dynamic, opaque, and constantly evolving nature. As organizations expand AI applications across critical sectors like healthcare, finance, and public services, the friction between innovation and oversight grows more pronounced.

New AI attack hides data-theft prompts in downscaled images

Researchers have developed a novel attack that steals user data by injecting malicious prompts in images processed by AI systems before delivering them to a large language model. The method relies on full-resolution images that carry instructions invisible to the human eye but become apparent when the image quality is lowered through resampling algorithms. Developed by Trail of Bits researchers Kikimora Morozova and Suha Sabi Hussain, the attack builds upon a theory presented in a 2020 USENIX
