Using a Puppeteer crawler on AWS Lambda, the authors ran a 40-day longitudinal measurement (March 13–April 21, 2026) over 55,393 trending Google queries across 19 topical categories and found that AI Overviews activate on 13.7% of queries overall (64.7% for question-form queries), that cited domains are more credible than co-displayed first-page results yet 29.8% do not appear on the first page at all, that 11.0% of 98,020 atomic claims are unsupported by the cited pages with omission as the dominant failure mode, and that at least 50.6% of cited pages carry display advertising.

Asana Chief Product Officer Arnab Bose describes how Asana runs AI agents as "AI teammates" inside its existing Work Graph: agents are built around roles (such as content writer, insights analyst, project manager, work intake specialist, campaign analyst, or campaign coordinator) with pre-built skills and integrations, distinct identities and controlled permissions, effective access bounded by the permissions of the person who triggers them, and coachable shared memory in which only admins and editors can commit feedback to permanent memory; the piece gives three deployments—Slack channel questions turned into Asana tasks and routed to product backlog or enablement documentation updates, an At-Risk Renewal agent producing a daily global renewal-risk digest for executives and regional leade

Using XMap to probe port 11434 across the full IPv4 space daily from 2025-02-14 to 2026-02-13 over 362 observed days, a Nankai University team found 152,137 cumulative exposed Ollama endpoints, with daily alive endpoints rising from 10,473 to 16,059 (+53.3%), 26.4% of IPs appearing on a single day, only 0.43%–2.90% of below-fix IPs upgrading in place across five CVE cutoffs, the top five countries/regions holding about 70% of weighted observations, and the top five ASNs all cloud or hosting providers, complemented by PTR and port-443 TLS probing of operational characteristics.

An MIT Technology Review investigation documented over a thousand people who moved through areas watched by surveillance towers along the southern US border without being reached or apprehended and who ultimately died there, some under newly installed AI-powered towers designed to spot people automatically, revealing repeated failures of the virtual wall's basic security promise.

A coalition of Caltech mathematicians—including the original Mathathon organizers, two coauthors of the Open Letter about the Mathathon, and other community members—issued a joint statement announcing that Mathathon is being redesigned around the theme "Old Problems, New Proofs": participants pick a solved problem with an unintuitive solution, learn as much as possible in 40 hours and present findings to peers, then take two months to develop an alternative proof or exposition, submitting an explainer in any form plus a GitHub repository holding whatever produced it (LLM chat histories, visualization code, and more); the event runs November 13–15, is co-organized with the Foundation for Science and AI Research (SAIR), has XTX Markets as lead donor, and no longer takes sponsorships from dev

Anthropic announced that 950 Claude agents in its molecular biology lab flagged, within 21 hours, a repeating pattern surrounding a known enzyme in a large library of DNA sequences, saying the pattern had not been catalogued before, while some biologists argue that finding gene clusters and repeats is often the easy part and that the real discovery lies in figuring out what the system actually does, and a University of Copenhagen researcher says his team had already found the pattern.
