Microsoft’s planned TypeScript 7.0 release, an effort to improve performance, memory usage, and parallelism by porting the TypeScript language service and compiler to native code, has made significant progress, Microsoft reports. A planned TypeScript 6.0 release, meanwhile, will be the last JavaScript-based version of TypeScript, bridging the current TypeScript 5.9 release to TypeScript 7.0. In

One concern many users have about AI is that often their data leaves their PC and their network, with inferencing happening in the cloud. They have big questions about data protection. That’s one of the main drivers for Microsoft’s Copilot+ PCs; the neural processing units that are built-in to the latest CPU systems on a

Artificial intelligence and related technologies are evolving rapidly, but until recently, Java developers had few options for integrating AI capabilities directly into Spring-based applications. Spring AI changes that by leveraging familiar Spring conventions such as dependency injection and the configuration-first philosophy in a modern AI development framework. In this article, you will learn how to

Open-source software has become the backbone of modern development, but with that dependency comes a widening attack surface. The npm ecosystem in particular has been a high-value target for adversaries who know that one compromised package can cascade downstream into thousands of applications. The Shai Hulud worm, embedded in npm packages earlier this year, was

You might not know it from all the panic-inducing headlines out there, but Android is actually packed with practical and powerful security options. Some are activated by default and protecting you whether you realize it or not, while others are more out of the way but equally deserving of your attention. So stop wasting your

MIT has started taking a count of AI agents around the world to get a larger view on how technology could replace human labor. The “Iceberg Index” counts the different types of AI agents conducting work previously done by human labor. The initial index numbers indicate that just 13,000 agents could expose 151 million human

Microsoft has retired its Mesh 3D collaboration platform as it continues to scale back its metaverse ambitions in the workplace.  The company unveiled Mesh during the Covid-19 pandemic amid widespread interest in the potential of virtual reality and immersive environments for workplace collaboration. Mesh was available as a Unity-based platform for creating 3D environments and as an

Chip stacking strategy is emerging as China’s innovative response to US semiconductor restrictions, but can this approach truly close the performance gap with Nvidia’s advanced GPUs? As Washington tightens export controls on cutting-edge chipmaking technology, Chinese researchers are proposing a bold workaround: stack older, domestically-producible chips together to match the performance of chips they can

As AI adoption has continued to surge over the last couple of months, one thing has become abundantly clear, i.e. there isn’t enough computational horsepower to go around (something that has become painfully obvious as cloud providers have accrued months-long waitlists for high-end GPU instances). And, unlike the brief crypto-mining GPU craze from just a

For years, cybersecurity experts debated when – not if – artificial intelligence would cross the threshold from advisor to autonomous attacker. That theoretical milestone has arrived. Anthropic’s recent investigation into a Chinese state-sponsored operation has documented the first case of AI-orchestrated cyber attacks executing at scale with minimal human oversight, altering what enterprises must
