AI breakthrough could replace rare earth magnets in electric vehicles

Scientists at the University of New Hampshire have unleashed artificial intelligence to dramatically speed up the hunt for next-generation magnetic materials. By building a massive, searchable database of 67,573 magnetic compounds — including 25 newly recognized materials that stay magnetic even at high temperatures — the team is opening the door to cheaper, more sustainable technologies.

From Acceleration to Exposure: Why AI Demands Mature AppSec

Snyk explores how Implementing mature AppSec with enforceable policies, continuous monitoring, and integrated security tooling is critical to maintain control in high-velocity environments AI-driven development is increasing release velocity, but immature AppSec programs struggle to keep pace, allowing vulnerabilities, insecure dependencies, and misconfigurations to propagate at machine speed. Autonomous AI decisions across the SDLC expand the blast radius of small mistakes and create visibility gaps for security teams.

Consumers feel less judged by AI debt collectors

Debt collection agencies are starting to use automated voice systems and AI-driven messaging to handle consumer calls. These systems help scale outreach, reduce call center staffing demands, and offer 24/7 service. A new study covering 11 European countries found that this shift changes how consumers emotionally experience debt collection, especially around stigma and empathy. The research evaluated consumer reactions to scripted debt collection phone calls involving either a human representative or an AI voice assistant. … More → The post Consumers feel less judged by AI debt collectors appeared first on Help Net Security.

Attackers keep finding the same gaps in security programs

Attackers keep getting in, often through the same predictable weak spots: identity systems, third-party access, and poorly secured perimeter devices. A new threat report from Barracuda based on Managed XDR telemetry from 2025 shows that many successful incidents still start with basic access and configuration failures, not advanced malware. The report draws on more than two trillion IT events, nearly 600,000 security alerts, and more than 300,000 protected assets monitored over the year. Barracuda’s SOC … More → The post Attackers keep finding the same gaps in security programs appeared first on Help Net Security.
