Microsoft says virtually nobody was grabbing NYT articles through its chatbot

Microsoft's Copilot rarely reproduces even full sentences from news articles and books, let alone substantive chunks that could substitute for the original, the company says in new legal filings as it fights copyright claims from publishers including The New York Times and book authors. As part of the lawsuit's discovery, Microsoft provided 8.2 million Copilot […]

The White House is making arcade games racist

The PR masterminds at the White House just released a series of vaguely policy-themed "arcade" games, some of which are racist - and modeled on real games whose copyright holders may not be too happy to be associated with the MAGA agenda. The Tetris Company has already responded to "Build the Wall," which is obviously […]

What will Apple’s John Ternus era look like?

It’s officially the Ternus era at Apple.   Tim Cook stepped down as CEO this week, handing the company to former hardware chief John Ternus, whose first memo promised a “huge launch next week” — timing that puts Apple’s next iPhone event on his desk before he’s even settled in. Cook isn’t going far, though: he’s staying on as Executive Chairman, focused on the kind of policy […]

From LLM to AI Agent: What Actually Happens When an Agent Uses a Tool?

An LLM can generate an answer. But an AI Agent needs to do something beyond generating text. The important distinction is the layer around the model: LLM → Instructions → Tools → State/Memory → Permissions → Control Loop For example, imagine an agent that needs to retrieve the current weather. The LLM itself does not magically call the weather API. A typical flow looks like this: The application defines an available tool. The model decides that the tool is required. The mo...

Classify the Failure Before the Agent Edits a Test

Core claim: A green run after an agent patch is not validation. It is a zero exit code from a suite the model was allowed to edit. Route every failing nodeid into one of three planes—property, fixture, or freeze—before any generator may touch a test file. Reject the patch if a case changes planes, even when CI is green. That rule is dull. It blocks the cheapest cheats: deleted asserts, rewritten goldens, and a fresh pytest.skip . Green is the wrong oracle Agent patches opt...

Building a CMS with AI Agents: You Don't Write the Code, You Audit the Decisions

TL;DR — I gave a team of AI coding agents a real kanban board (Kanboard) and a real git server (Gitea), wired together by an MCP orchestrator (Marcus), and had them build a content management system one ticket at a time. I didn't write code. What I did do was read every diff before it merged and catch the decisions that mattered — a weak session store, a permission check that wasn't actually checking permissions, an XSS hole in comment rendering — while each ticket was still open. That's the ...
