A security researcher said she was able to access several internal FIFA platforms due to a simple security flaw, which allowed her to watch and have full control of the TV stream of every World Cup game.  The researcher, who goes by BobDaHacker, said she simply registered as a player agent on FIFA’s official agent registration platform. Then, thanks to having that account and a flaw in FIFA’s back-end API, which didn’t check if a user actually had the proper authorization, she was able to access several internal FIFA platforms.  This included the system that allows broadcasters to control what…

Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon said Tuesday that the company is working on over 40 different AI wearable devices — including jewelry, earbuds with cameras, pins, and watches — a sign of how aggressively the chipmaker is betting that the next major computing platform won’t be a phone at all. To power that vision, Qualcomm is announcing two new offerings: a platform called Snapdragon Reality Elite for mixed reality glasses, designed to run more powerful on-device AI, and the Scalable Turnkey AI-Ready Toolkit (START), a combination of hardware modules and a software stack for AI devices, starting with smart glasses. Compared…

Mobileye has pitched itself as an autonomous vehicle technology supplier. Now, it wants the operator label, too. The Intel subsidiary and publicly traded company said Tuesday it plans to launch a robotaxi service in a U.S. city in 2027, marking an expansion beyond its supplier strategy. Mobileye didn’t name the U.S. city. However, the Israeli-based company said it will have an initial fleet of 100 autonomous vehicles, which will be phased in throughout 2027. If successful, Mobileye said it plans to scale to about 17,000 robotaxis over the following five years. “The robotaxi revolution has only just begun, and its…

There is an air of anticipation, and every bar of the dramatic introduction crescendos with a cheer from the crowd as one by one members of the Black Veil Brides appear on the stage. At its zenith the classical piece seamlessly blends into equally commanding guitar riffs, and frontman Andy Biersack runs on stage to the intro of Knives and Pens, a track from their debut album. “Lets go!” he growls. The venue is packed with fans of all ages, many donning dramatic eyeliner in the glam-metal style that defined the band’s early visual identity. As the opening song ends,…

AI has officially outperformed the average human in a test of creativity. While that might be humbling news for the general public, the more interesting result lies elsewhere: how did the AI fare against the study’s most exceptionally creative human participants? That’s where the results get complicated. The most creative humans, about the top 10% of participants, still consistently outperformed every AI model tested, including GPT-4, Claude and Gemini. Not by a small margin, and not in isolated cases – across creative writing tasks including haiku composition, short story generation and film plot summaries. The strongest human performers cleared the…

SpaceX has captured the attention of media, investors, and the public for years now — interest propelled by the company’s reusable rocket launches, the rise of its Starlink satellite network, and of course, for its founder and CEO Elon Musk. But in its 24-year history, nothing quite compared to its initial public offering. Everyone seemed interested — perhaps because of the sheer size of the IPO. The company priced its 555.6 million shares at $135 each to raise $75 billion, making it the largest IPO in history and turning Musk into the world’s first trillionaire. That total raised figure would…

Key Aspects: The US Embassy has issued a security alert advising against renting jet skis in the Bahamas, especially in Nassau. Multiple sexual assaults on US women have been reported in relation to watercraft rentals near the cruise port.

Cruise guests visiting the capital city of the Bahamas will want to exercise a bit more caution when looking for the best deal for a jet ski experience. On June 15, 2026, the US Embassy issued a security alert about the…

The Department of Justice on Monday sided with xAI in a lawsuit that sought to stop the company’s use of dozens of unpermitted natural gas turbines near its Memphis data centers, according to a Wired. The DoJ said if the NAACP, which filed the lawsuit in April, prevails, the result would undermine “American national, economic, and energy security by seeking to shut off the power supply for artificial-intelligence innovation that supports the Department of War’s military operations.” The memorandum filed by the Justice Department said that Grok is one of four AI models that support “mission-critical operations,” such as its…
