The Hacker NewsMar 17, 2026Artificial Intelligence / Security Leadership A majority of security leaders are struggling to defend AI systems with tools and skills that are not fit for the challenge, according to the AI and Adversarial Testing Benchmark Report 2026 from Pentera. The report, based on a survey of 300 US CISOs and senior security leaders, examines how organizations are securing AI infrastructure and highlights critical gaps tied to skills shortages and reliance on security controls not designed for the AI era. AI adoption is outpacing security visibility AI systems are rarely deployed in isolation. They are layered across…

I’m trying to develop an AppIntent / action for Shortcuts that accepts a video input that comes from a Photos action (e.g., “Select Photos”). Everything I’ve read says “IntentFile” is the only appropriate data type, which I have previously used successfully for accepting photo inputs from the same actions. However, here’s what I’ve observed with this use case: Magic variable data type Swift variable data type Result “Photo media” (default) or “File” “IntentFile” Input rejected – action re-prompts for input with magic variable highlighted red “Photo media” (default) or “File” “[IntentFile]” Input accepted but blank – “.count” is 0. I’ve…

Quote of the day  “The inference inflection has arrived.”  —Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang claims we’ve reached a tipping point where AI usage is accelerating faster than its development, AP reports.  One More Thing  Meet the radio-obsessed civilian shaping Ukraine’s drone defense  EMRE ÇAYLAK Serhii “Flash” Beskrestnov is, at least unofficially, a spy. Once a month, he drives to the frontline in a VW van equipped with radio hardware, roof antennas, and devices that monitor drones. Over several days, he searches the skies for transmissions that can help Ukrainian troops.  Drones define this brutal conflict, and most rely on the radio communications Flash has obsessed over since childhood. Though…

Skateboarding games have long balanced technical precision with a sense of flow and expression, but Skate Story takes the genre in a radically different direction. It has a distinct vaporwave vibe and blends fluid skate mechanics with exploration, puzzles, and an existential narrative about freedom, pain, and obsession. The game was created by indie developer Sam Eng, who previously released Zarvot for the Nintendo Switch. Skate Story launched to critical acclaim and was widely regarded as one of the best games of 2025. In this episode, Sam joins the show with Joe Nash to talk about developing Skate Story. Joe…

The accountability challenge: It’s not them, it’s you Until now, governance has been focused on model output risks with humans in the loop before consequential decisions were made—such as with loan approvals or job applications. Model behavior, including drift, alignment, data exfiltration, and poisoning, was the focus. The pace was set by a human prompting a model in a chatbot format with plenty of back and forth interactions between machine and human. Today, with autonomous agents operating in complex workflows, the vision and the benefits of applied AI require significantly fewer humans in the loop. The point is to operate…

Some of the best agentic AI companies in 2026 include Intellectyx AI, IBM, Accenture, Cognizant, and TCS. These companies help organizations build and deploy AI agents that can reason, plan tasks, and execute workflows autonomously, enabling businesses to automate operations and make faster decisions. Agentic AI is gaining attention because it moves beyond traditional automation. Instead of following static rules, AI agents can analyze context, interact with systems, and complete complex tasks with minimal human input.   What Is Agentic AI? Agentic AI refers to AI systems designed to act as autonomous agents. These agents can understand goals, plan actions,…

Why we built the Secure AI Factory One year ago at NVIDIA GTC, Cisco and NVIDIA introduced the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA. At the time, the challenge for enterprises was clear: AI was moving from science project to strategic priority, but the infrastructure and software were fragmented. Customers were struggling with the complexity of standing up massive compute clusters for training, optimization, and inferencing, while ensuring their data remained secure and private. To solve this, the Secure AI Factory was built upon the foundation of Cisco AI PODs, our modular reference architecture based on Cisco Validated Designs and…
