After researchers used AI to help uncover a severe bug in the PHP language, security leaders are warning of a 'vulnerability tsunami' in core internet infrastructure. OpenAI's Sam Altman joined the chorus, saying he no longer believes all bugs can be patched.
As AI agents move beyond generating text or analysing data, 1Password is introducing controls over how they use credentials.
Vercel explains how its agent handles permissions on live systems: it first investigates a problem, then proposes a plan describing the actions it intends to take. The approach tries to avoid both overly broad access and a flood of approval prompts that users end up clicking through.

Government websites and public services across Europe went offline this week as organisations reacted to two newly disclosed PHP vulnerabilities. The piece argues AI is speeding up the race between finding flaws and patching them.

The Paris prosecutor denies the robbery, and the image came from a site Next had listed as AI-generated for more than a year and a half.
