While over 20 vendors announced agentic AI-based security agents, apps and platforms at RSAC 2025, the most insightful news from the conference is a rare, encouraging trend for security leaders. For the first time in three years, overall cybersecurity effectiveness has improved.
Scale Venture Partners (SVP) recently released the 2025 Cybersecurity Perspectives Report, which shared that the…
Question: What product should use machine learning (ML)?
Project manager answer: Yes.
Jokes aside, the advent of generative AI has upended our understanding of what use cases lend themselves best to ML. Historically, we have always leveraged ML for repeatable, predictive…
Humans have always migrated to survive. When glaciers advanced, when rivers dried up, when cities fell, people moved. Their journeys were often painful, but necessary, whether across deserts, mountains or oceans. Today, we are entering a new kind of migration — not across…
Whenever a patient gets a CT scan at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), the resulting images are automatically sent off to the cardiology department, analyzed by AI and assigned a cardiac risk score.
In just a few months, thanks to a simple algorithm, AI has flagged several patients at high cardiovascular risk. The CT scan doesn’t have to be related to the heart; the patient…
The ‘era of experience’ will unleash self-learning AI agents across the web—here’s how to prepare
May 1, 2025
David Silver and Richard Sutton, two renowned AI scientists, argue in a new paper that artificial intelligence is about to enter a new phase, the “Era of Experience.” This is where AI systems rely increasingly less on human-provided data and improve themselves by…
By now, many enterprises have begun exploring AI agents and determining whether deploying them is a viable option for their business. But many still equate agents with something most companies have had for years: automation.
Automation pioneer UiPath sees agents and…

No more window switching: Mastercard’s Agent Pay transforms how enterprises use AI search
April 30, 2025
One criticism of computer use platforms and other search agents is that you cannot complete any transactions within the same window if you use them to find a product or a hotel.
Mastercard aims to change that by integrating AI companies and platforms into its payments…
Researchers from UCLA and Meta AI have introduced d1, a novel framework using reinforcement learning (RL) to significantly enhance the reasoning capabilities of diffusion-based large language models (dLLMs). While most attention has focused on autoregressive models like GPT, dLLMs offer unique advantages. Giving them strong reasoning skills could unlock new efficiencies and applications for…
