In an impressive and unique industry first that reflects the work Apple has done on mobile device security since the first iPhone arrived almost 20 years ago, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) says iPhones and iPads running iOS 26 are secure enough to handle classified information in NATO-restricted environments — pretty much out-of-the-box. That’s going

Google continues to find itself in hot water over its alleged antitrust tactics and monopolization of certain market segments. Now its parent company, Alphabet, seems to be ceding to EU scrutiny of its search practices.  The company will reportedly begin testing changes to its search engine results in the EU to more fairly represent vertical

Autonomous agents take the first part of their names very seriously and don’t necessarily do what their humans tell them to do — or not to do.  But the situation is more complicated than that. Generative (genAI) and agentic systems operate quite differently than other systems — including older AI systems — and humans. That

At a glance Today’s AI agent benchmarks test one task at a time, while real workplace productivity requires managing dozens of interdependent tasks at once. To reflect this, we created a setting called Multi-Horizon Task Environments (MHTEs). Under multi-task loads, leading computer-using agents degrade sharply, with completion rates dropping from 16.7% to 8.7%. CORPGEN introduces
