Trump Signs Executive Order Cutting Federal Funding to PBS and NPR

Citing perceived bias in their reporting, former US President Donald Trump signed an executive order reducing federal money to PBS and NPR. The order

Citing perceived bias in their reporting, former US President Donald Trump signed an executive order reducing federal money to PBS and NPR. The order requires the Corporation for Public Broadcasting CPB to stop providing these outlets with direct money and to stop providing them with indirect funding. Given the variety of news outlets, Trump contends that governmentfunded media are out of date and that PBS and NPR dont offer objective reporting. Legal challenges are anticipated to the move because public broadcasters, especially those in rural areas, depend on CPB subsidies. NPR representatives stressed their role in local reporting and public safety, while PBS CEO Paula Kerger cautioned that the cuts would disrupt vital services. Read More..

WhatsApp has launched Private Processing, an AI function that prioritises privacy and guarantees the security of user interactions. In order to preserve endtoend encryption, it uses Oblivious HTTP OHTTP technology to isolate user identification from request content. While processing AIgenerated responses, such as message summaries and writing recommendations, this method keeps Meta, WhatsApp, or other third parties from accessing user data. For the purpose of verifying security claims, Meta has also committed to independent audits and bug bounty schemes. As worries about data security rise, WhatsApps privacyfirst AI policy will be strengthened with the rollout of the feature in the upcoming weeks. Private Processing seeks to increase confidence in AIdriven communication by using private cloud settings. Read More..

Xiaomi Debuts MiMo, an OpenSource AI Model for Reasoning and Code Generation

Xiaomi has released MiMo, its first opensource AI model with seven billion parameters, that is geared towards reasoning activities. Notwithstanding it

Xiaomi has released MiMo, its first opensource AI model with seven billion parameters, that is geared towards reasoning activities. Notwithstanding its smaller size, MiMo, which is intended to maximise mathematical thinking and code creation, rivals Alibabas Qwen32B and OpenAIs o1mini. Xiaomi improved data pretreatment, improved text extraction, used multilayered filtering, and trained MiMo on 25 trillion tokens to achieve efficiency. Among the four iterations of the model, the MiMo7BRLZero is particularly good at zeroshot reinforcement learning for maths and coding. MiMo is perfect for enterprise and edge computing, according to Xiaomi, as it surpasses larger versions in logic benchmarks. The opensource model can be found on Hugging Face and GitHub. Read More..

Llama 4powered Meta has released a standalone AI app with voice interactions, a Discover feed, and integration for smart glasses. With the use of fullduplex speech technology, the software lets users have smooth audio interactions in real time. Users can exchange AIgenerated questions, chatbot responses, and photographs through the Discover feed, which promotes a social AI experience. The program also allows users to switch between devices for talks by integrating with RayBan Meta smart glasses. While Indian users can access textbased interactions, speech functionalities are currently available in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the US. This growth highlights Metas efforts to improve accessibility and engagement through AIdriven customer experiences. Read More..

Microsoft RDP Design Choice Raises Security Concerns Over Expired Password Access

Rather than being a flaw, Microsofts Remote Desktop Protocol RDP design permits users to log in using passwords that have expired. Older credentials c

Rather than being a flaw, Microsofts Remote Desktop Protocol RDP design permits users to log in using passwords that have expired. Older credentials continue to function even after changing the password, which could result in a silent backdoor, according to security expert Daniel Wade. Although experts caution that this goes against security expectations because consumers believe that changing their password instantly revokes access, Microsoft claims that this guarantees continuous access, particularly for offline computers. With no apparent fix, the problem impacts Azure and Microsoft accounts set up for remote desktop access. Companies that use RDP for hybrid work must be concerned about credential security since hackers may use outofdate login information. This behaviour raises concerns about enterprise cybersecurity and access management, and Microsoft has no plans to address it. Read More..

DeepSeek Unveils Prover V2, Pushing AIAssisted Theorem Proving to New Heights

DeepSeek introduced Prover V2, a stateoftheart AI model for mathematical theorem proving. It uses a MixtureofExperts MoE architecture with 671 billion

DeepSeek introduced Prover V2, a stateoftheart AI model for mathematical theorem proving. It uses a MixtureofExperts MoE architecture with 671 billion parameters to maximise efficiency. When used with Lean 4, it improves mathematical research, error identification, and proof verification, benefiting both students and academics. Prover V2, which builds upon the DeepSeek V3 framework, stokes conjecture on the impending R2 reasoning model, which may further develop AIdriven reasoning and problemsolving. This methodology facilitates the creation of formal proofs, leading to advances in computational and academic mathematics. Prover V2 represents a major advancement in automated reasoning as DeepSeek continues its AI development, bridging the gap between human mathematicians and AIassisted theorem proving. Read More..

Elon Musks Starlink team recently met with Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni to explore the possibility of the satellite internet provider entering Uganda. SpaceX subsidiary Starlink is quickly growing its services throughout Africa and operates in over a dozen nations, including Somalia and Lesotho. In response to longstanding grievances regarding exorbitant prices and erratic domestic services, Museveni conveyed gratitude for Starlinks dedication to offering reasonably priced internet in isolated locations. This move represents a significant step towards improving internet coverage in the area, even though it is unknown whether Starlink has applied for an operating licence in Uganda. Read More..
