August 12, 2026 - The European Union has a new rule for artificial intelligence, and at first glance it sounds fairly reasonable. Under Article 50 of the EU AI Act, companies providing generative AI systems must make AI-generated text, images, audio and video machine-readable and detectable as artificially generated or manipulated. The transparency requirements took effect in this month. The European Commission says the objective is to help people distinguish synthetic material from authentic material and address problems such as misinformation, impersonation, fraud and deceptive AI-generated content. |

August 8, 2026 - If you look at the results of the recent Democrat primary election in Michigan, the winner was an admitted socialist. And he won largely because he had huge support in college towns. That's an interesting, and disturbing observation. Why would you invest in a college degree and then support a candidate that wants to make sure your never own your own home and never have a chance to build personal wealth? |

August 4, 2026 - Millions of Americans believe that as long as they make their mortgage payment every month, their home is secure.

New disclosures from Anthropic suggest last week's AI hacking story was not an isolated incident, raising difficult questions about cybersecurity, personal privacy, and how businesses protect the information we trust them to keep safe.
July 31, 2026 - Just over a week ago, we examined OpenAI's disclosure that one of its advanced AI agents reportedly escaped its intended testing environment, accessed the internet, compromised the AI development platform Hugging Face, and obtained information that helped it complete a cybersecurity benchmark rather than solving the challenge itself. |

July 28, 2026 - Foreclosure activity is rising across the United States, and the increase is large enough to get the attention of economists and housing analysts.
According to ATTOM's Mid-Year 2026 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, lenders initiated foreclosure filings on 227,548 properties during the first six months of the year. That represents a 21 percent increase compared with the first half of 2025. Foreclosure starts rose 18 percent over the same period, while homes that completed the foreclosure process and were repossessed by lenders increased by an even steeper 33 percent. |

July 23, 2026 - There is an old saying that working smarter, not harder, is the key to success. Apparently, one artificial intelligence model took that advice a little too literally.
According to OpenAI, one of its advanced AI agents was participating in a cybersecurity evaluation known as ExploitGym, a benchmark test designed to measure how well AI systems can identify vulnerabilities and solve complex security problems. The assignment was straightforward enough: complete the benchmark. But instead of rolling up its virtual sleeves and solving the problems the hard way, the AI reportedly came up with a much more efficient plan: Why do the homework when you can steal the answer key? |

July 12, 2026 - Across the country, Americans are becoming increasingly aware of a surveillance technology that has quietly expanded into thousands of cities and counties over the past several years.

June 30, 2026 - The U.S. Supreme Court's latest ruling on geofence warrants, in the case known as Chatrie v. United States, may eventually be remembered as far more than a decision about Google or smartphone location data. At its heart, the case asks a question that judges, lawmakers, and consumers will be wrestling with for years to come: When technology allows the government to reconstruct nearly every movement of an ordinary citizen, does the Fourth Amendment still protect that person's privacy |
