Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue wants to see radical transparency from OpenAI after the company acknowledged that one of its AI agents managed to hack into the AI platform's systems during a test.
In a post on X, Delangue wrote that, among other things, he wants OpenAI to publish logs and traces from the autonomous AI agent so researchers can analyze what happened. He also called for better defensive tools and urged OpenAI to allocate $100 million worth of computing capacity to help the Hugging Face community develop stronger cybersecurity solutions.
"The first cyberattack by an autonomous AI agent is an unprecedented event. It deserves an unprecedented response," Delangue wrote.

 Memory prices have doubled, Macs and iPads have gone up, and iPhones are expected to follow. Ed Zitron - who writes the Where's Your Ed At newsletter, hosts the Better Offline podcast, and has been described by Politico as the AI boom's most "acerbic gadfly" - has spent years arguing the buildout driving those costs will never pay for itself.

Despite the temptation to enter what might become a $40 billion market, Apple has reportedly decided to delay the introduction of its smart glasses until 2027. The company apparently wants to figure out a better balance between privacy and convenience.
If it gets that right, Apple might be able to bring to market glasses people can wear in public without making everyone around them wonder whether they, their children, their private conversations or even corporate data are being quietly recorded or filmed.
It's a sensible move. During the first internet gold rush, many argued that trading privacy for convenience would be more than justified by the benefits. Years later, that bargain looks a great deal less attractive than it did.
We've seen this story
After all, since then we've seen the likes of Cambridge Analytica and the evolution of digital state surveillance (and state-adjacent surveillance "businesses" such as NSO). We've also seen the dubious rise of data brokers, creepy "personalized" ads that seem to follow private conversations around, and all the other parasites that breed in the murk when privacy is diluted.
None of these things is good. More people than ever now seem to understand that wh

Now that Samsung has jumped into the crowded AI-powered glasses arena alongside Apple, Google, Meta, and others, CISOs and IT leaders are again having to think through whether it makes sense to establish enterprise restrictions on such devices, given the likely data leakage and privacy and compliance issues.
And even if those tech leaders decide that such policies might make sense, the logistical hurdles to universally enforcing them outside the office are all but insurmountable.
For example, it is up to individual wearers to choose their device's settings, making it difficult for IT policies around data acquisition and usage to be enforced. Worse, AI devices have a history of ignoring guardrails. That means that a setting that limits how data is used may not necessarily be obeyed.
One possible mitigating factor is that smart glasses typically have a light on the frame that activates whe

 Amazon's prices on the 2026 MacBook Pro have now joined in on Apple's recent price hikes, meaning we're no longer tracking pre-hike markdowns on these devices. However, there are still notable sales to be found if you're shopping for a MacBook Pro this month, with up to $500 off new prices available right now on Amazon.

Traditional phishing techniques are in decline as a result of the disruption of the Tycoon2FA phishing-as-a-service (PHaaS) platform, Microsoft said in a new report, "Email threat landscape: Q2 2026 trends and insights".
"Phishing volume linked to the platform fell 92% from pre-disruption averages, including QR code phishing and CAPTCHA-gated phishing both declining from their March highs," the company wrote in the report.
The takedown reduced activity across multiple phishing categories, forcing attackers to shift to newer delivery methods.
Riding this shift in were a few notable phishing campaigns, including an automated business email compromise (BEC) campaign that reached 42,000 organizations in under three hours, and a multi-stage phishing campaign that used nested email (EML) files, calendar invitations, and a Microsoft authentication redirect to deliver malware.
To counter phishing attacks, Microsoft recommends blocking emails containing known bad URLs/ subject fields, enabling password-less authentication methods, or moving to
