Thirty years have passed since a handful of developers in Germany set out to build a desktop for Linux.

The U.S. House of Representatives delivered a lopsided rebuke to the unchecked expansion of artificial intelligence infrastructure last week. Lawmakers voted 417-3 to advance the Ratepayer Protection Act.

The trust relationship between workstations and Active Directory broke. Users saw messages claiming their passwords were wrong. Cached logons worked offline.

Attackers exploit new flaws in five days. Most companies patch them in 43. The gap yawns wider every quarter. Autonomous agents promise to close it. They also introduce fresh ways for systems to run amok or fall under outside control. Security leaders now face a choice. Deploy agents that test websites, fix code and optimize

Beijing-based Moonshot AI didn’t wait for permission. On September 17 the startup rolled out a specialized version of its Kimi model aimed squarely at banks, brokerages and asset managers.
