Cheap energy, abundant land, and proximity to Beijing have turned a city in Inner Mongolia into a crucial hub for data centers.

Cloudflare has recently detailed how it is using AI to transform internal engineering standards from passive documentation into an actively enforced control system across the software development lifecycle. By Craig Risi

Architecture is not a fixed choice made once; fitness is a moving target driven by changing regulations, tech, and markets. Even a sound design can silently stop fitting over time without bad calls. Spanning seven articles on context stores, gateways, and topologies, this collection treats architecture as an evolving sociotechnical craft where teams deliberately shape friction, fitness, and flow.

Dan Finneran discusses the risks of unowned AI-generated code in production and demonstrates how eBPF can intercept and control AI API traffic in Kubernetes. He explains how kernel-level socket hooks enable transparent prompt filtering, model swapping, token limits, and syscall restrictions to secure AI agents without modifying application source code or restarting containers.

Technology leaders don’t seem to understand society’s gripes about AI, but boy, are they posting through it.

“Runaway” AI, “rogue” agents, and “autonomous” actors—the current rhetoric would have you believe that AI agents are not only awake and aware, but angry at their creators. Prominent tech leaders such as Demis Hassabis, Dario Amodei, and Sam Altman push for regulation of these seemingly “superhuman” systems, while a separate faction, led by policy organizations…

InfoQ has opened enrollment for the InfoQ Certified AI-Assisted Engineering Program, a five-week online certification program for senior engineers and architects who already run a coding agent against production code daily, where the open questions have moved past prompting into what the agent is allowed to touch and what catches its mistakes before a human does.

Artificial intelligence (AI) makes all code write-only,. It’s too dense to read, and tests define the behaviour and become the documentation. Code is also disposable; it becomes easier to rewrite than to debug. Humans can't review AI-generated code at scale. Intent decouples from implementation; developers should focus on creativity. By Ben Linders

Each day, an airline transports tens of thousands of passengers on hundreds of flights. Often these are not straightforward point-to-point routes, with passengers requiring multiple connections. The airline can consider potentially hundreds of variables to price each of these journeys: demand, season, time of day, current events, global markets, and competitor airline activity to name…

During a recent visit to Generalist AI, I watched a robotic arm improvise and use a banana as a tool.

Anthropic announced last week it would include invisible watermarks in AI-generated content to comply with new EU rules. Within hours, overrides were being touted online.

Flock’s surveillance cameras have already sparked outrage. WIRED reconstructed its next-generation AI system, already in use by some police, to confirm it goes much further than tracking license plates.

The ChatGPT maker says its upcoming Astra model may have reached “critical” cyber capabilities, prompting it to halt a significant number of training runs while it tightens internal safeguards.

AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI regularly publish reports on how people are using products like Claude and ChatGPT, but they only release the data they want us to see, AI researchers say. “There is no independent source to corroborate it,” says Anka Reuel, a Computer Science PhD candidate at the Stanford Trustworthy AI Research…

The AI industry’s boldest promise right now is that AI will soon improve itself, with almost no need for human oversight. LLMs can already write code, generate synthetic data for training, and optimize the computer chips they run on. Forecasts of explosive AI progress predict that what researchers call recursive self-improvement is on the horizon. …

Z.ai’s latest AI model release could help companies secure their systems—or find its way into the hands of hackers.

This story originally appeared in The Algorithm, our weekly newsletter on AI. To get stories like this in your inbox first, sign up here. Flock, the police-tech giant known for its network of some 120,000 automatic license plate readers around the US, announced some changes to its platform last Thursday. The updates are meant to prevent…

SpaceXAI has introduced Grok Bot, a system of persistent AI agents that operate on dedicated cloud computers and can interact with websites, applications, inboxes, and other tools. By Daniel Dominguez

Grab is using AI agents to automate analytics workflows, cutting mechanical analyst work from 44% in February to 30% in June. Its approach combines agent autonomy, certified data, context management and human oversight, with self service analytics increasingly handling metric, data and SQL requests without analyst intervention.

In this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke to Tracy Bannon about the role of artificial intelligence in software and the attendant risks in the areas of security, software development, and society at large. While it might be reasonable to assume a certain amount of trust within a software ecosystem, the risks escalate when the boundary between two software ecosystems is crossed. By Tracy Bannon
