The open source AI agent, much hyped for “actually doing things,” has been embraced by many programmers to automate parts of their workflow. But could they be automating themselves out of a job? That’s not a possibility that seems to bother the co-founders of the Silicon Valley startup JustPaid, who brag they’ve used OpenClaw to create

Getty / Futurism A San Francisco woman sued OpenAI last week, alleging that ChatGPT fueled the dangerous delusions of her violent stalker — and that OpenAI failed to intervene even as the woman begged the company for help. The plaintiff, who filed the case anonymously as “Jane Doe,” claims in the lawsuit that her ex-boyfriend became infatuated with ChatGPT after using the chatbot to talk through their breakup in 2024, according to TechCrunch. The man grew

Source: Getty Images Traditionally, young people have eagerly embraced hot new technologies — think Sony’s Walkman, Apple’s iPhone, or Napster — and become major drivers of their success in the workplace and society. And if they spurn a new product — remember Microsoft’s Zune, Google+, or Amazon’s Fire Phone? — it’s often a very bad sign. That leads us to a new survey from Gallup, GSV Ventures and the Walton

While Google’s AI may no longer recommend eating rocks or confidently telling users to put glue on their pizza, even cutting-edge AI chatbots remain staggeringly incompetent at dispensing medical advice. In a new study published this week in the journal JAMA Network Open, researchers asked 21 frontier large language models (LLMs) to “play doctor” when confronted with realistic symptoms that an actual patient could feasibly ask about. The results painted a

Getty / Futurism Donald Trump’s bid to cash in on the AI data center boom seems to have sprung a leak before it even left the harbor. The company, Fermi America — the “master developer” of the “President Donald J. Trump Advanced Energy and Intelligence Campus” — is apparently flailing wildly as it tries to nail down fundamentals like steady revenue and cooling infrastructure. According to Axios, the Trump-branded firm has yet to even secure a commercial te

Brendan Smialowski / AFP via Getty Images; Futurism Elon Musk is locked in a heated trial in a lawsuit he lodged against his rival OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman. Or at least, he’s supposed to be. Despite the judge’s explicit order that he be ready to testify in court again, the world’s richest man has eloped to China with president Donald Trump on an official diplomatic visit, leaving his lawyers flailing. Today, each side gave their closing arguments. Ste

@ghorbelhamdiI created Buddy, an open-source app that lets AI agents operate Android smartphones (Claude Code / Codex / MCP)AndroidAIMCPClaudeCodeOSS1Posted at 2026-11-11 Introduction Coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex are highly capable in the terminal. So, what would happen if you extended their "hands" to a smartphone screen? With that idea in mind, I created the Android app Buddy. Repository: https://github.com/ghorbelhamdi/buddy-android Licen

The image is color-treated in an offset screenprint style and set against a field of neon yellow. Ever since being anointed as the leader of the Catholic Church last year, Pope Leo has been an outspoken critic of AI. Most recently, in his first encyclical, he called for the tech to be “disarmed,” accusing it of facilitating the emergence

Shutterstock / Futurism AI data center projects have become astonishingly unpopular. Their opposition has garnered strong bipartisan support, quickly turning the facilities into a hot button political issue for the upcoming midterm elections in the US. And it’s not just residents in rural America trying to keep out facilities, which have been linked to rising electricity prices, water issues , and copious amounts of noise.

The main rule is that clients know only stable names: zubr, zubr-flash, and zubr-coder. Each name maps to a list of ordered routes with a fallback. If the weights change or a provider goes down, the integrations do not notice.Pitfall 1. Silent fallback on /v1/messagesAt first, we set up GLM-5.3 as a regular OpenAI-compatible backend—the openai/ provider with the required api_base. Chat and the SDK worked.

Shutterstock / Futurism It’s not exactly a challenge most of the time to identify a sketchy phishing email that crudely impersonates an otherwise trusted institution or tries to lure you into a too-good-to-be-true deal in a bid to steal your identity. However, your AI agent may not be quite as discerning. As cybersecurity software company Malwarebytes warns in a new post, AI assistants may fall prey to prompt injection attacks, a type of malicious message
