    OpenAI Confirms Data Breach—Here's Who Is Impacted

    A breach at analytics provider Mixpanel earlier this month exposed account names, email addresses, and browser locations for some users of OpenAI's API, the AI giant confirmed Wednesday, raising concerns that cybercriminals could use the stolen metadata in targeted phishing attempts. According to Mixpanel, on November 8, an unknown attacker gained access to part of its systems and exported a dataset containing customer-identifiable metadata and analytics information. The stolen data included use...

    Saudi Arabia's First Quantum Computer: Can It Break Bitcoin?

    Saudi Arabia has entered the global quantum computing race. Saudi Aramco, the government-controlled energy and chemicals company, said Monday it has installed the Kingdom’s first quantum computer, in a move that adds to mounting security concerns for Bitcoin and other blockchain networks. Aramco said the 200-qubit machine, built by Pasqal, a France-based neutral-atom quantum computing company, and installed at its Dhahran data center, has been designed for industrial applications such as energy...

    Musk Says Real-World Data From X and Tesla to Drive AGI Efforts

    Elon Musk said his AI company xAI assigned a 10% probability to achieving artificial general intelligence with its upcoming Grok 5 model, arguing that progress toward human-level reasoning would depend on live data rather than the static training sets used by rival labs. He claimed during a recent interview at the Baron Investment Conference that xAI’s data access from X is its primary competitive edge. “Grok 5 is the first time where I thought, well, we have a non-zero chance of achieving artif...

    Trump Signs 'Genesis Mission' Executive Order to Use AI to Supercharge US Innovation

    President Trump signed an executive order on Monday that establishes the “Genesis Mission,” a national AI-for-science initiative that officials described as the largest federal research effort since the Manhattan Project. The order directs agencies to connect federal datasets, national laboratory supercomputers, and new AI systems that the administration said would accelerate scientific discovery across several fields and strengthen U.S. technological competitiveness. The order also creates a ce...

  • What Is a Layer-1 Blockchain? The Base Layer Powering Bitcoin and Crypto

    A layer-1, or L1, blockchain is the base network of a blockchain ecosystem. It operates independently—without relying on other chains for validation or execution—and handles everything from transaction processing to consensus and data storage on its own ledger. Often called the mainnet or settlement layer, a layer-1 blockchain forms the ground floor upon which all other blockchain layers, including sidechains and layer-2s, are built. Where layer-2s extend performance on top of existing networks,...

    More Ready Than Bitcoin? How Zcash Developers Are Preparing for the Quantum Threat

    Quantum computers are still far from breaking modern cryptography, but Zcash developers are treating the possibility as an active threat. The privacy coin’s engineers have been building contingency plans for a future machine powerful enough to sift through old blockchain data and expose years of user activity. For a privacy-focused network, a “Q-Day” quantum attack would strike at the heart of its design. A successful attack could expose past activity, disrupt basic safeguards, and force develop...

    Group Asks Federal Agency to Halt Use of Elon Musk's Grok AI Amid Racism Concerns

    Public Citizen, a nonprofit consumer advocacy organization, escalated its warnings about Elon Musk’s Grok AI on Friday after publishing new evidence showing the chatbot cited neo-Nazi and white-nationalist websites as credible sources. The group said the behavior should disqualify Grok from any federal use, and renewed calls for the U.S. Office of Management and Budget to intervene after months without a response. Citing a recent study by Cornell University, Public Citizen said that Grokipedia,...

    Cardano Network Disrupted by 'Poisoned' Transaction Attack

    The price of Cardano (ADA) was down on Friday after the blockchain suffered an unexpected chain split, which was caused by a malformed delegation transaction that triggered a software flaw. That created problems for Cardano users, and prompted a public apology from the user who claimed that they caused it. Intersect, the Cardano ecosystem’s governance organization, said in an incident report that the divergence began when the malformed transaction passed validation on newer node versions, but no...

    Google Sparks Backlash After Gmail Setting Lets Gemini Peek Inside Inboxes

    A toggle buried inside Gmail set off a public firestorm this week after users realized it allowed Google’s Gemini AI to analyze their emails and calendars by default. Posts across social media showed confusion about when the feature had been enabled and how much personal information it had touched. The uproar intensified as people complained that Google had given no notice that the feature had been activated. Many users said they had never agreed to anything resembling AI training and were surpr...

    Poll Shows Young Conservatives More Willing to Give AI Control Over Policy and Military

    A new Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports survey showed that younger conservatives were more willing than their liberal counterparts to give advanced artificial intelligence sweeping control over major government functions. The findings come despite years of complaints from conservatives that AI systems lean left politically, making the level of support all the more striking. The poll surveyed 1,496 likely voters aged 18 to 39 between October 31 and November 2. It asked whether respondents...

    NASA Insists Interstellar Visitor Is ‘Just a Comet’ as Public Speculation Lingers

    NASA officials tried to shut down weeks of online theories on Wednesday, insisting that an interstellar object passing through the solar system was a comet despite a wave of claims that it might be an alien craft. The agency had stayed silent during the recent U.S. government shutdown, leaving a vacuum that fueled speculation about the object known as 3I Atlas. During an hour-long press conference at the Goddard Space Flight Center, officials said the object’s behavior matched a standard comet a...

    The Biggest Challenges Facing Bitcoin Miners Going Into 2026

    Bitcoin miners are entering a period of new structural risk tied to power contracts, firmware systems, and hosting agreements as the industry approaches the new year, according to Matthew Case, an independent analyst who tracks mining economics. In a recent X post, Case described these pressures as forces operating beneath the surface while miners remain focused on the next halving (in 2028) and hardware cycle. The analyst argued that these vulnerabilities could shape who controls Bitcoin’s hash...

    Dead Internet Theory Gains Traction as AI Content Surges Online

    Much of the internet still runs on human traffic, but more and more it’s beginning to feel less human. As AI-generated posts, bots, and automated agents spread across major platforms, researchers say the online world is starting to resemble the concerns raised by the Dead Internet Theory, the idea that much of what people see online is no longer produced by humans but by automated machines built to imitate them. When the notion first circulated a few years ago on conspiracy forums like 4Chan and...

  • What Is Q-Day? The Quantum Threat to Bitcoin Explained

    Quantum computers can’t break Bitcoin’s cryptography today, but new advances from Google and IBM suggest the gap is closing faster than expected. Their progress toward fault-tolerant quantum systems raises the stakes for “Q-Day,” the moment when a sufficiently powerful machine could crack older Bitcoin addresses and expose more than $711 billion in vulnerable wallets. Upgrading Bitcoin to a post-quantum state will take years, which means the work has to begin long before the threat arrives. The...
