Inspired by the adaptable nature of organic brains, researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have introduced a method for robust flight navigation agents to master vision-based fly-to-target tasks in intricate, unfamiliar environments. It's all fun-and-games until it springs a leak?

A record 26,448 software security flaws were reported by CISA last year, with the number of critical vulnerabilities (CVEs) up 59 percent from 2021 at 4,135. And now we're all fixed up, right? Right?

These are for multiple different speculative execution side-channel attack CPU vulnerabilities on Windows 11 and Windows 10. To fix, or to create?

After a two-minute chat session, could you reliably figure out if you'd been chatting with a real person or a chatbot? "As a meatbag would say: 'I have a bad feeling about this"

If the chat bot can't lie... it should be pretty easy.
If the chat bot can lie... perfect, we are so dumb and are giving them the skills to fool us.

If you don’t repeat yourself, keep it simple, and implement only the functionality you really truly need, your C# code will be cleaner, simpler, and much easier to maintain. FYI

Please someone gives that guy the price to the most innovative idea of the year... no, no, of the decade...
wait... better of the century.
But the worst is: That although being that obvious, it is so damned complicated to find people doing it (or even self doing it continously).

Each day, messages from Nigerian princes, peddlers of wonder drugs and promoters of can't-miss investments choke email inboxes. Improvements to spam filters only seem to inspire new techniques to break through the protections. Greetings fellow person {insert name}, I have many monies to helps you become largest. Much love, Tami

As long as they still use adresses that I can't recognise... all is fine.
But yes... It is only a question of time and it sadly tends to be less, faster than I expected.

Agreed. The spam I get has gotten so bad that I'm close to adding a white list rather than trying to keep up to date with the black list.
I'm about 5 years give or take away from retirement. I clicked on a link to go look at an investment offer. I've not been able to turn off the spam since. It went from one email to a giant variety. At least there aren't any *ick pictures.

Yesterday, my current email provider, which has been cost free for 20+ years, sent me a message that they soon will start charging for the service.
My ISP provides an email address at no extra charge (and, I must say, no extra service) that I never used. When I switch to that address from July 1st, no spammers know it. If AI spam generators will make personalized advertising, it will be based on my activity using the old mail address, and spamming that address. I've kept that address for 20+ years, so I guess there is quite a lot to pick up.
For my new address, there will be nothing for that AI to make use of. I will be very restrictive in using my new email address. I'll check up the possibility of getting a series of aliases, so that if spam starts popping up, I will know who has leaked my address, and I can easily route that mail (along with that from the traitor) to my spam box.
Side remark: I saw, in a list of oxymorons, "military intelligence". It seems like the current wave of "artificial intelligence" uses the noun in a similar meaning. So maybe it deserves an entry in the same list.

I'm also interested in knowing how fast that account starts to get spam - possibly even before you use it anywhere?
