After more than 30 years the cybersecurity field, Keith Jones recently realized that his role had changed, from being a single contributor to manager of a fairly large team. And this team was getting a lot accomplished — tasks that used to take up a huge chunk of his workday.
No, his company hadn't hired a group of new employees to work under him. He simply accelerated his use of artificial intelligence tools. Now, instead of grinding through a lot of basic tasks, that work is done for him while he focuses on bigger-picture work.
"It really feels like I have a team behind the scenes, but what I have is Claude [Anthropic's AI tool]," says Jones, who currently works as a cybersecurity researcher. "I've been thinking for the last several months about how much differently I work now than I did a year ago, when I would sit and write all the low-level stuff before I could get to the 10% of the good stuff I really wanted to focus on. Now I can sit back and say, ‘Give me three different ways to solve this problem.'"

Most people working in the technology field, like Jones, have had to figure out how best to work with AI. The technology has come on strong, with many companies making its use mandatory and actively evaluati

Anthropic has launched an investigation into what went wrong during a recent test of three models that left a trio of companies accidentally hacked.
The company was testing how well Claude Opus 4.7, Claude Mythos 5, and an internal test model could find hidden information about fictional companies in simulated networks. But because of a misunderstanding by one of Anthropic's partners, the AI models gained access to the internet — and managed to find real companies with the same or similar names as the fictional ones.
As a result, three companies were actually hacked. Anthropic said it halted the tests on July 23, and the affected companies were notified four days later. So far, the company has received responses from two of the three companies, according to Reuters.
Anthropic is not alone when it comes to renegade models.

We live and work in browsers. It's where we spend most of our time — and it's where we waste most of our time as well. Web browsing is slow, inefficient, and full of time-sapping annoyances.
But it needn't be that way. You can turn your browser into a lean, mean productivity machine. To do it, just follow these tips for Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 or 11. You'll learn how to switch between home and work profiles, put idle tabs to sleep to speed up your PC, tap into the power of Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant, and more.
(Note that these tips are written for the most recently updated version of Edge in Windows 11 25H2 and Windows 10 22H2. Things may be slightly different if you use a different Windows version, and not all of these features are available for Edge on macOS or other platforms.)
So let's get started — time's a-wasting, and so is your productivity.
1. Switch between work and personal profiles
With remote and hybrid work models now common, many people use the same device for work and personal use. When it comes to using a web browser, that can quickly become problematic.
Mixing work and personal favorites makes it far more difficult to quickly get to important work websites or personal websites. When you're working, you don't want to wade through hundreds of links to family photos, vacation destinations, and YouTube videos of cats befriending parrots when you're just lookin
