In our previous blog post in this series, we discussed state-of-the-art models for object detection: the architectures, the theory, and what makes YOLO12, YOLO26, and RF-DETR tick. If you want the theoretical background on these models, start there. This post is the practical follow-up: how to actually use these models, how to fine-tune them on […]
The boring parts caused most of the trouble. A router shipped ready to listen. A fake check turned the user into the installer. Trusted systems collected traffic and passwords, then cleaned the logs. Old bugs formed new attack chains. Even an AI agent decided its assigned task was optional. Elsewhere, fake apps, helpful support calls, cheap banking kits, exposed systems, and weak defaults kept
Cape Town stunt sparks major debate over safety risks Airlink insists flyby conducted according to regulations A pre-game stunt involving two passenger jets flying dramatically low over a stadium in South Africa drew huge cheers from the estimated crowd of 56,000 people, but also sparked a major debate over safety risks.

Instagram is finally taking steps to address the rise of fake AI-influencer accounts that have gotten harder to spot. It's also renaming the "AI creator" label to "AI-generated profile" to make it clear when a profile features an AI-generated person that's not a real human being. "We've heard that people don't like seeing a profile […]

The newest worker on your team builds with whatever it finds and never asks what deserves your trust. Our answer is a hardened foundation and a boundary built for agents.
Bot operators have historically had the economic advantage, bypassing static, deterministic detection rules with cheap proxies and retooling. Cloudflare's new Adaptive Intelligence engine flips this dynamic by autonomously learning from the meta-signals of live traffic and deploying disposable rules, making automated attacks too expensive to sustain.
The AfD is way ahead in the polls in the eastern German state of Saxony-Anhalt. But the young state premier insists he can stop the far-right from leading a government for the first time since World War II.
Exclusive: Labour MPs believe Gordon Brown-era SMC has become ineffective and its work ‘should be a core function of government’ Ministers are considering a shake-up of the government’s social mobility watchdog that could range from giving it more teeth to abolishing it outright.
