Can digital humans teach robots to keep people safe?
Safeworld is building digital humans to teach robots how to keep people safe. It's a clever inversion: instead of coding endless safety rules, they're creating simulated people who can model real-world risk. This approach feels more human-centered than a manual of regulations. It acknowledges that human behavior is messy, and robots need to learn that messiness, not just avoid it. For deeper context on the broader safety landscape, our piece on the new AI safety task force explores how oversight is evolving.
Kevin Mandia deploys agent swarms to defend enterprises in new startup Armadin
Kevin Mandia, the founder of Mandiant, is back, this time deploying agent swarms to defend enterprises through his new startup, Armadin. It's a natural evolution for someone who built a reputation on hunting threats. These AI-driven teams test and protect systems in ways static tools cannot. We see a similar thread in our coverage of "How Photon's $4.5M bet on AI agents reimagines messaging over apps", both stories explore how autonomous agents reshape their domains.
Apple's security practices weaken its trade secrets claim, OpenAI argues.
Apple's trade secrets case against a former engineer just hit a snag, and it's one of Apple's own making. Newly filed exhibits show OpenAI arguing that Apple's security and offboarding practices, including allowing a manager to access the ex-employee's iCloud account, undercut its claim that the data was properly protected. It's a sharp counterpunch. If Apple's own safeguards were that porous, its legal stance deserves scrutiny.
