Cybersecurity agencies from the Five Eyes alliance are warning organizations to be careful with agentic AI, especially when these systems are connected to sensitive data or critical systems. Agentic AI refers to artificial intelligence tools built on large language models that can plan steps, make decisions, use external tools, and carry out actions with limited human supervision. While these systems can help automate tasks and improve productivity, government cyber agencies

China has ordered the unwinding of Meta’s acquisition of the artificial intelligence startup Manus, a move that signals a sharper turn in Beijing’s approach to foreign investment in sensitive technologies and intensifies uncertainty for AI founders operating across borders. The decision, issued by China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), effectively prohibits foreign investment in Manus and instructs the parties involved to reverse the deal. Officials said t

Anthropic’s new AI model, Mythos, is quickly becoming one of the most closely watched developments in technology because of what it could mean for cybersecurity, banking, and the wider global economy. Introduced earlier this month as the company’s most advanced model yet, Mythos was built for defensive cybersecurity tasks, but experts say its capabilities go well beyond normal threat detection. Anthropic has said the model uncovered thousands of major vulnerabilities across m

Meta is pushing artificial intelligence beyond consumer products and directly into the executive office, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg reportedly developing a personal AI agent to help him run the company. According to the reports, the tool is designed to retrieve information quickly and cut through the multiple layers of communication that usually exist inside a company as large as Meta. Instead of waiting for updates to move through teams and managers, Zuckerberg’s AI agent can

Artificial intelligence is transforming how companies operate, but it is also creating new cybersecurity challenges. A recent incident involving global consulting firm McKinsey highlights how rapidly evolving AI technologies can introduce unexpected vulnerabilities. Researchers from cybersecurity startup CodeWall revealed that they were able to hack McKinsey’s internal AI platform, called Lilli, exposing millions of internal messages and sensitive system information. Although

Yann LeCun’s new startup, AMI Labs, has quickly become one of the most closely watched AI ventures of 2026 after raising an enormous $1.03 billion seed round at a $3.5 billion pre-money valuation. Based in Paris, the company, whose full name is Advanced Machine Intelligence, is pursuing a very different direction from the large language model boom that has defined much of the current AI industry. Rather than concentrating on systems trained mainly on text, AMI Labs wants to b

Google and OpenAI escalated their rivalry at the forefront of artificial intelligence on the same day, with Google unveiling its most advanced AI research agent yet just as OpenAI released GPT 5.2, codenamed Garlic. Google’s announcement centered on a major upgrade to Gemini Deep Research, which it described as a reimagined agent capable of long form reasoning, complex analysis, and enterprise grade investigation rather than simply generating research reports. The closely t
