‘Your photos will be deleted’: Apple users warned over ‘nasty’ iCloud storage scam

Fraudsters send emails claiming storage is full or nearly full, then trick people into clicking on links that can expose bank and personal detailsFor a while you’ve been getting messages from Apple saying “your iCloud storage is full”. They say you have exceeded your storage plan, so documents are no longer being backed up, and […]

Liquid AI Releases LFM2.5-VL-450M: a 450M-Parameter Vision-Language Model with Bounding Box Prediction, Multilingual Support, and Sub-250ms Edge Inference

Liquid AI just released LFM2.5-VL-450M, an updated version of its earlier LFM2-VL-450M vision-language model. The new release introduces bounding box prediction, improved instruction following, expanded multilingual understanding, and function calling support — all within a 450M-parameter footprint designed to run directly on edge hardware ranging from embedded AI modules like NVIDIA Jetson Orin, to mini-PC

Researchers from MIT, NVIDIA, and Zhejiang University Propose TriAttention: A KV Cache Compression Method That Matches Full Attention at 2.5× Higher Throughput

Long-chain reasoning is one of the most compute-intensive tasks in modern large language models. When a model like DeepSeek-R1 or Qwen3 works through a complex math problem, it can generate tens of thousands of tokens before arriving at an answer. Every one of those tokens must be stored in what is called the KV cache

Brian Cox: ‘We don’t know how powerful AI is going to become – it’s both exciting and potentially a problem’

The physicist, BBC presenter and author on snowflakes, art v science and the time Paul McCartney quizzed him about one of Saturn’s moonsWhat is the inspiration behind your latest live show, Emergence?It came from a book that I’ve loved for years: The Six-Cornered Snowflake by Johannes Kepler. Kepler is most famous for his laws of

How to Build a Secure Local-First Agent Runtime with OpenClaw Gateway, Skills, and Controlled Tool Execution

In this tutorial, we build and operate a fully local, schema-valid OpenClaw runtime. We configure the OpenClaw gateway with strict loopback binding, set up authenticated model access through environment variables, and define a secure execution environment using the built-in exec tool. We then create a structured custom skill that the OpenClaw agent can discover and

‘It has your name on it, but I don’t think it’s you’: how AI is impersonating musicians on Spotify

Fraudulent music streams have long been a scourge for the industry, but experts say generative AI has supercharged itJason Moran, a renowned jazz composer and pianist, got a strange call from a friend last month. The friend, bassist Burniss Earl Travis, was curious about Moran’s new record that he saw on the music streaming service

How Knowledge Distillation Compresses Ensemble Intelligence into a Single Deployable AI Model

Complex prediction problems often lead to ensembles because combining multiple models improves accuracy by reducing variance and capturing diverse patterns. However, these ensembles are impractical in production due to latency constraints and operational complexity. Instead of discarding them, Knowledge Distillation offers a smarter approach: keep the ensemble as a teacher and train a smaller student

Alibaba’s Tongyi Lab Releases VimRAG: a Multimodal RAG Framework that Uses a Memory Graph to Navigate Massive Visual Contexts

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become a standard technique for grounding large language models in external knowledge — but the moment you move beyond plain text and start mixing in images and videos, the whole approach starts to buckle. Visual data is token-heavy, semantically sparse relative to a specific query, and grows unwieldy fast during multi-step

A Coding Guide to Markerless 3D Human Kinematics with Pose2Sim, RTMPose, and OpenSim

In this tutorial, we build and run a complete Pose2Sim pipeline on Colab to understand how markerless 3D kinematics works in practice. We begin with environment setup, configure the project for Colab’s headless runtime, and then walk through calibration, 2D pose estimation, synchronization, person association, triangulation, filtering, marker augmentation, and OpenSim-based kinematics. As we progress,

NVIDIA Releases AITune: An Open-Source Inference Toolkit That Automatically Finds the Fastest Inference Backend for Any PyTorch Model

Deploying a deep learning model into production has always involved a painful gap between the model a researcher trains and the model that actually runs efficiently at scale. TensorRT exists, Torch-TensorRT exists, TorchAO exists — but wiring them together, deciding which backend to use for which layer, and validating that the tuned model still produces
