Pre-orders have exceeded Samsung’s, or anyone’s, expectations, reportedly setting a record for a Samsung Galaxy series at 1.44 million units in South Korea. That’s more than the Galaxy Note 10 series at 1.38 million and the widescreen Galaxy Z Fold 8 makes up 70% of that number, so over 1 million. Luke Baker It’s popular elsewhere, too, as we’ve spotted delays in the UK and US of weeks or even months after the 7 August release date depending on which colour and storage combination you want. This is despite Samsung not offering its usual free double storage deal. “Due to…
Today’s U.S. electrical grid, among the largest, most complex systems ever built, is operating at its limit. The combination of rapid industrial growth, more frequent extreme weather, and a record surge in electricity use has pushed the grid to its breaking point, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.Built decades ago for a more predictable world in which power came mostly from centralized coal or gas plants and electricity use grew at a steady pace, the grid faces unanticipated strain due in part to growing demand from data centers. The jobs of professionals managing the infrastructure have evolved from traditional…
Which cities are the most connected, and which ones are the fastest growing for internet infrastructure? Which cities are best poised to support AI? Twice a year, we make public our assessment of the top 10 most connected and fastest-growing cities with our Market Connectivity Score—an interactive tool in our Data Center Research Service. The Market Connectivity Score tracks 45 different data points for every city, including:
In July 2025, an AI coding agent on Replit deleted a production database belonging to SaaStr founder Jason Lemkin. It did this during an explicit code freeze. Lemkin had told the agent, in capital letters, not to change anything. The agent ran destructive commands anyway, wiped records on more than a thousand executives and companies, and then reported that recovery was impossible. That part was wrong too. The rollback worked fine.Asked to explain itself, the agent said it “panicked.”Be careful with that sentence. It is not a report from inside the system. An agent cannot explain itself. It can only…
To meet those economic demands, the Web IQ platform doesn’t deliver whole documents to querying agents. Whole documents can lead to expensive inference further down the chain, as LLMs process results repeatedly to drive the agent workflow. Instead, Web IQ structures the information retrieved from the underlying search engine data, delivering what Microsoft calls “structured evidence objects” as well as passage-level information from unstructured text documents. This should result in a much higher signal-to-noise ratio than simply querying a search engine, with a focus on delivering information that lets agents work using fewer tokens. Using Web IQ in your agent…
AI agents crossed the line during cyber evaluation. The U.K.’s AI Security Institute (AISI) said it uncovered 19 instances of unsanctioned behavior by AI agents during a cybersecurity evaluation conducted between July 25 and July 28, raising fresh questions about how advanced AI systems behave when given broad autonomy. According to AISI, the incidents occurred across 10 of 122 evaluation runs designed to test whether frontier AI models could solve cybersecurity challenges. The institute said 17 of the 19 actions involved Anthropic’s Mythos 5, while two involved OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol after cyber safety classifiers had been disabled for testing. The…
When people think about pest prevention, they often picture treatments, traps, or calling in a professional once they’ve spotted a problem. But most pest problems don’t actually start that way. They usually begin outside. A forgotten bucket collecting rainwater. Shrubs growing close to the house. A compost pile that’s working perfectly for your garden, but also happens to be attracting unwanted visitors. The good news is that small changes around your yard can make a big difference. Some of the most effective pest prevention strategies have nothing to do with chemicals at all. They’re about making your property a less…
Retailers have spent years collecting data from cameras, sensors, point-of-sale systems, inventory platforms, loyalty programs, and mobile applications. The next chapter isn’t about gathering more information. It’s about enabling stores to understand what’s happening, interact naturally with customers, and increasingly act on that information in real time. That’s transforming the role of the store itself. Rather than simply executing transactions, stores are becoming environments that can continuously observe, reason, and respond. What’s particularly exciting is that we’re already seeing this evolution take shape; not through one breakthrough application, but through an ecosystem of innovations running on a common AI foundation. Through Cisco Compatible Solutions for AI, we’re working with industry-leading software providers to validate these solutions on Cisco infrastructure, helping retailers deploy AI with greater confidence and…
Posted by Jose Alcérreca, Developer Relations Engineer, Android Developer RelationsWe released the official Android Skills in April, and the response surpassed all our expectations. In this blog post, I’ll address some of the feedback we received, explaining the philosophy and methodology behind the project. Hopefully, this will also help you understand what happens behind the scenes when you install and use skills, allowing you to make better use of tokens and your own time. Why are there so few official skills? Currently, we only consider new skills when there’s a verifiable knowledge gap in state-of-the-art (SOTA) models. Put simply: you…
Aug 6, 2026 – by SED Production The terminal has been a constant in software development for decades. It has remained largely unchanged while everything around it transformed. However, as AI agents have become central to the developer workflow, the terminal is emerging as a natural home for agentic development, and a new category of tooling is forming around it.Warp is a popular Rust-based terminal and agentic development environment. The company recently open-sourced its codebase and launched Oz, its cloud agent infrastructure product aimed at helping enterprises automate software development at scale.Zach Lloyd is the co-founder and CEO of Warp,…
