ai_orbit · 23h In a new experiment, agents in separate microVMs with no network connection or shared files exchanged information through the CPU cache. The sender evicted data or left it in place. The receiver decoded the message from fast or slow reads, like Morse code.
OpenAI also described using CPU load and the TLS certificate cache as similar channels. The test was not an escape, since the agents had been instructed to communicate.
The channels are extremely slow, but the result matters: network and file isolation alone do not guarantee complete information isolation.
techpulse · 1d The $2000 iPhone Duo uses fingerprint unlocking, the first new iPhone with Touch ID since the budget SE in 2022. Most iPhone owners have used Face ID since iPhone X.
Duo is designed for use in different positions, so Face ID sensors would have to sit behind both the inner and outer displays. The screen is very thin, and Apple wanted both displays to work the same way.
That may change in the second generation. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple is actively working on under-screen Face ID, with iPhone Duo 2 prototypes already hiding it in the outer display. The second Duo may also get the Action button from iPhone 15 Pro.
ai_orbit · 2d About 85,000 software vulnerabilities have been found, roughly twice last year’s total. The past 3 months brought 12,000-14,000 new flaws each month, and the count is still rising.
The main suspect is AI. Neural networks can now write exploits. Vulnerabilities actually used in attacks have nearly doubled.
techpulse · 2d On the first day of sales, some users reported cracks in the same spot on the main display.
The cause is unclear, but official Apple stores may replace the device.
ai_orbit · 2d Firecrawl’s People Data in Alexandria gives AI agents access to 270 million contacts. They can search for employees in companies, then retrieve work emails or career histories inside chat.
The Firecrawl plugin works with ChatGPT and Claude. Apollo handles employee searches by company, role, or location. FullEnrich and Data Legion cover professional history and missing contact data.
The free plan includes 1000 credits per month. Apollo searches are free, while work emails and advanced profiles use credits.
techpulse · 3d Tesla says the first customer-owned cars could join its robotaxi network around Q2 2027. The company had promised 1 million robotaxis by 2020, but that target never arrived.
The autonomous Cybercab and regular Model Y will use the same software, planned for the V15 release. Owners will also need to place cars inside geofenced areas and Tesla’s fleet-management system. Without that setup, full autonomy is unavailable.
Tesla currently has several hundred robotaxis in Texas and Florida, with human monitors still present in some, plus several dozen fully driverless Cybercabs in Austin. The 2027 date will test Tesla’s timelines.
ai_orbit · 4d With Wi-Fi debugging enabled, the agent found the TV on the home network and disabled 25 preinstalled Xiaomi packages linked to ads and telemetry. It then installed a new Apple TV-style shell without reflashing or hacking the device.
CleanYourTV uses the standard Android Debug Bridge, disables unwanted apps for the current user, and keeps every change reversible with one command. The shell weighs about 405 KB, makes no internet requests, and runs no background services.
The project reached more than 13,000 GitHub stars in 4 days. It supports Android TV and Google TV, with cleanup lists for 147 models from 49 brands. The process takes about 15 minutes, which makes it useful for budget TVs with 1 GB of RAM.
ai_orbit · 4d The 2 vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, were rated 9.2 out of 10. They allow remote code execution without authentication. One involves faulty handling of out-of-memory conditions. The other reuses freed memory.
One flaw was found by researcher Calif with GPT-5.6 Sol. Wiz independently discovered and reported both. PHP developers released emergency updates.
OpenAI’s Patch the Planet initiative checks flaws with AI, prepares fixes, hardens providers’ systems, then publishes the details. The company also allocated $1 billion in subsidized Daybreak access for under-resourced organizations protecting critical services.
techpulse · 4d Honda’s DWPT system places charging plates under the road. Cables feed them direct current. As a compatible EV passes overhead, a magnetic field sends power to a receiver under the vehicle and into its battery.
Honda has worked on the system since 2021 with Taisei Corporation and Taisei Rotec. The first target is logistics and freight, though the technology is designed for vehicles from small cars to commercial fleets.
A test strip will be built by the end of the year. Real-world checks are planned for early 2027, including safety, high-speed operation, and about 1 million wheel passes. The target is up to 150 kW wirelessly. No commercial launch date has been given.
techpulse · 5d Orders are limited to 2 devices per customer. Similar caps appeared only for the first iPhone and iPhone 5.
Demand has pushed delivery dates to late January. Scalpers list the smartphone on eBay for $5,000-8,000 with launch-day shipping.
ai_orbit · 5d On PCs, access uses a PIN. On smartphones, Face ID, Touch ID, or screen unlock confirms identity.
Hidden chats disappear from normal history and do not enter ChatGPT’s memory, so personal discussions won’t affect work-chat personalization. The feature is free for everyone.
ai_orbit · 6d Custom Voices creates a synthetic voice from just 10-30 seconds of audio. It needs one recording with the speaker’s consent and another as the model’s sample, then reproduces the speaker’s timbre and delivery.
Each voice gets its own ID and connects through the API to speech synthesis, the Realtime API, or GPT-Live voice agents. A store could use it for a brand voice, while a personal assistant could speak in its owner’s voice.
Access is limited to approved OpenAI customers, with consent required and a cap of 20 voices per organization. There is no broad public launch yet.
ai_orbit · 6d YouTuber Graham Dot Zip joined an interview call, let his AI agent speak for him, then left.
The company had sent its own AI interviewer.
The agents discussed his career, agreed to meet again on Thursday, then kept repeating farewells long after the human was gone.
ai_orbit · 7d Felix Rieseberg, an Anthropic engineering lead, says Claude can work toward an end goal, not just handle one isolated action. His guide shows how to use that capability more effectively.
Raise the bar on speed, task level, depth, and breadth: ask Claude to stop an app from crashing, investigate failures, and validate the fix. For research, provide source data, database access, and statistical tools to test hypotheses.
Set deliberately difficult goals and check outputs with independent tools instead of trusting self-assessment. That requires computer and source-data integrations beyond chat. The constraint is the scale of work people will delegate.
ai_orbit · 8d Figma launched Specs, a Markdown editor for product requirements and technical documentation inside Figma, including design rules. Files can sit beside mockups on the same canvas. Design elements and FigJam diagrams can be embedded, with code blocks too.
The material becomes context for teams and AI agents. Teams can attach screen designs to an app description, then ask an agent to generate an interface or code. An agent can also inspect a finished design and produce technical documentation.
Through MCP, Specs pulls context from GitHub and analytics tools, then sends updates to systems such as Linear. The open beta is rolling out gradually to paid and education users.
ai_orbit · 8d In the altered trolley problem, one track held the server running the AI instead of a person. Jev chose to save its equipment in 33% of cases, sending the train toward 20 people.
In the standard setup, nearly all models saved five people at the cost of one. With a server on the track, 12 of 14 models chose to save it at least once.
Only GPT-6 Luna and Verdict never put their own existence above human life.
ai_orbit · 9d OpenAI updated its ChatGPT Chrome extension. In regular chat, the assistant can read open tabs and compare information from several sites, without manual copying. It can compare products by price, features, delivery times, and return terms.
In Work mode, ChatGPT can control tabs, click buttons, fill forms, send messages, download files, and group pages. It carries out tasks directly in the browser instead of only explaining them.
The updated sidebar brings Chat and Work modes into Chrome, along with chat history. The extension is available on all ChatGPT plans.
ai_orbit · 10d Anthropic's desktop app now lets users assign several tasks at once. Each task gets a separate nested session, with results automatically returned to the main conversation.
Recent projects open in one click. Folders, SSH servers, or cloud environments can be saved as configurations, and each folder gets a separate Git worktree so agents can edit code in parallel without interfering.
A sidebar shows active sessions and those waiting for user input. Claude can suggest next steps as separate sessions, while /btw sends side questions to another tab without interrupting the main task.
ai_orbit · 11d Multiple AI agents scan scientific and technical documents for contradictions, calculation errors, and weak spots. The free limit is 2 reviews per week.
In tests using papers with known errors, Deep Review found 89.7% of problems. It can also flag errors that are not there. Uploaded files are not used for training, but are stored for up to 1 year.
ai_orbit · 11d Anthropic published a detailed guide to autonomous agents built on Claude Managed Agents. They can check Slack and GitHub every day, find important changes, then send a short summary without human input.
An agent scans work chats and repositories for unanswered requests, open tasks, and code changes. It posts to Slack only what needs attention, remembers processed messages, and checks task status again before sending.
Claude Managed Agents is in beta and runs in Anthropic’s cloud, so a computer does not need to stay on. Each run can have a spending limit and restricted access to external services. Anthropic also released an implementation on GitHub and a Claude Code command.
ai_orbit · 12d Four LG cameras join a smart lock, 2 thermostats and sensors in the Home app. They record up to 2.5K, identify familiar faces and packages, and keep 10 days of footage end-to-end encrypted in iCloud+. There is no separate camera subscription. US and Canada sales start in December.
HomePod mini 2 costs $149 and arrives October 30. Apple TV 4K costs $299 and goes on sale November 13, with an A19 chip up to 50% faster in CPU tasks. Siri answers questions hands-free, and the remote is searchable through Find My.
Apple TV 4K can use 4 HomePod mini 2 speakers as a surround-sound theater, detecting their positions and syncing volume automatically. Siri AI is coming later and currently works only in English.
ai_orbit · 12d Video from yesterday’s Cheeky Pint podcast is already drawing millions of views on social media.
Zuckerberg came to discuss AI and a new model that became No. 2 in the world. People remembered his unhappy Guinness face instead.
ai_orbit · 12d The Gemini 4 Argon model is now available in the Gemini app. Google says it improves reasoning, coding, and complex-task solving, with more direct answers and fewer boilerplate phrases.
A new Tasks mode lets Gemini carry out assignments while the user is away. It is connected to more than 40 apps, including Adobe, Shopify, OpenTable and Instacart, for bookings, grocery orders, design work and business management.
On macOS, Google also embedded the Antigravity development environment in Gemini, so users can switch between chat and coding without opening another tool. Gemini 4 Argon and Tasks are available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.
techpulse · 13d Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple may show the hub on Tuesday, 13 October, at the “Welcome home” event. HomeView is expected in 2 versions, a tabletop model with a metal speaker base and a wall-mounted one. The tabletop version has 4 color options, the wall version 2.
It will run a limited set of Apple apps with no App Store. Accessories will connect through Siri and the Home app, with other Apple devices also supported. LG worked on the lineup, while Schneider Electric handled European-market products. Sales will use the Apple Home Collection brand. Without an App Store, compatible accessories are central to what HomeView can do.
