Top Story

Researchers at the University of Chicago have come up with two filters - named Glaze and Nightshade - that prevent AI systems from learning from human art for at least, oh, a day. (MIT)

The filters change the images in ways invisible to the human eye that trick the AI into producing incongruous results.

The problem with this should be obvious: If the filter is invisible to the human eye, you can run the infected filter through an second filter than removes invisible nonsense and makes the image safe to plagiarise again.

It's copy protection, and it doesn't work.

Graphics card maker Colorful is preparing a single-slot version of the 4060 Ti. (WCCFTech)

This is welcome, given that most graphics cards - even low-end ones - now take up three PCIe slots. In terms of width, that is; they only plug in to one slot on the motherboard.
Apple could be releasing a refreshed iMac next week. Or not. (9to5Mac)

The current iMac looks great, is reasonably fast, and has a brilliant screen, but is limited to just 16GB of RAM. If they improve on that, great. If not, it will be DOA again as far as I'm concerned.
1Password had a "security incident" related to the recent Okta breach. (Bleeping Computer)

Which is exactly what you'd expect to happen when a password manager outsources its customer support login management to a third party.

However, apart from that 1Password seems to be run by people who know what they are doing; the hackers were detected before they could do anything, and it is impossible - at least in theory - for them to have accessed password data anyway. since 1Password doesn't have your password.
COBOL on Wheelchair is a framework for writing web applications in COBOL. (GitHub)

I mean, sure, why not.

Disclaimer: Because.
