It seems that Britain and Ukraine will work together to sell drone technology abroad. According to Reuters, the agreement comes during President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s visit to London, where he met Prime Minister Keir Starmer and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

Keir Starmer said in a statement, “Drones, electronic warfare and rapid battlefield innovation are now…

Crypto e-commerce platform Bitrefill said it was the target of a cyberattack earlier this month that resulted in stolen funds and limited exposure of customer data, with indicators pointing to the North Korean-linked Lazarus Group as a likely perpetrator. The breach, which began on March 1, originated from a compromised employee laptop, according to the company’s incident report.  Attackers were able to extract legacy credentials tied to production systems, allowing them to escalate access across Bitrefill’s infrastructure, including segments of its internal database and certain cryptocurrency hot wallets. Bitrefill said the attackers drained an undisclosed amount of funds from its…

After their dramatic falling-out, it doesn’t seem as though Anthropic and the Pentagon are getting back together. Instead, the Pentagon is building tools to replace Anthropic’s AI, according to a Bloomberg conversation with Cameron Stanley, the chief digital and AI officer at the Pentagon. “The Department is actively pursuing multiple LLMs into the appropriate government-owned environments,” he said. “Engineering work has begun on these LLMs, and we expect to have them available for operational use very soon.” Anthropic’s $200 million contract with the Department of Defense (DOD) broke down over the last several weeks after the two parties failed to…

BuzzFeed, the U.S.-based media company known best for its quizzes, listicles, and, for a time, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalism division, is reinventing itself for the AI era. At least, that’s the pitch. At the SXSW conference in Austin, BuzzFeed co-founder and CEO Jonah Peretti introduced the company’s next media foray: a spin-off called Branch Office, which will explore artificial intelligence in consumer-facing apps designed for creativity and connection.

Lecanemab, marketed as Leqembi, is a monoclonal antibody treatment for Alzheimer’s disease that targets and removes harmful amyloid plaques while slowing cognitive decline. Scientists from VIB and KU Leuven have now uncovered exactly how it works. Their research shows that a specific part of the antibody, known as the ‘Fc fragment’, is crucial for activating microglia — the immune cells of the brain -, which then begin clearing these toxic deposits. This study provides the first clear explanation of how this type of therapy functions, resolving long-standing questions and offering guidance for developing safer and more effective Alzheimer’s treatments. The…

Google may have signed on to President Trump’s toothless power pledge, but it’s clear the company started working months ago on a framework to power its data centers. On Thursday, Google said it will work with Michigan utility DTE to add 2.7 gigawatts of “new resources” in suburban Detroit to power a new data center in the region. Some specifics are still fuzzy at this point, but the deal mimics one signed last month with Xcel Energy to build a data center in Minnesota. This is how Google will develop new capacity for its future data centers. The new plan…
