Figure A. Both countries will now "Align their scientific approaches" and work together to "Accelerate and rapidly iterate robust suites of evaluations for AI models, systems, and agents." This action is being taken to uphold the commitments established at the first global AI Safety Summit last November, where governments from around the world accepted their role in safety testing the next generation of AI models. The MoU primarily relates to moving forward on plans made by the AI Safety Institutes in the U.K. and U.S. The U.K.'s research facility was launched at the AI Safety Summit with the three primary goals of evaluating existing AI systems, performing foundational AI safety research and sharing information with other national and international actors.
AI is quickly transforming how individuals create their own apps, copilots, and automations. The first is that production environments are no longer welcoming dozens or hundreds of apps but tens and hundreds of thousands of apps, automations and connections - all from users of varying technical backgrounds.
The security team's animosity toward development teams grows as they view developers as not "Taking security seriously enough." That's why I've decided to share what I've learned from managing the application security team at a large telecom with some success in balancing the tensions between developers and security.
The Consortium for Information and Software Quality estimates that the cost of poor software quality in the United States reached $2.41 trillion in 2022. It's also completely avoidable, and software flaws must be avoided with the world's increased dependency on software.
Organizations are becoming more laser-focused on extracting the value of AI, moving from the experimentation phase toward adoption. While the potential for AI is limitless, AI expertise sadly is not.
In this Help Net Security video, Rob Whiteley, CEO at Coder, discusses the cloud development environment technology landscape and its benefits. From the earliest stages of writing code to deploying finalized applications, CDEs are reimagining the developer experience, gaining traction as the next frontier of programming productivity, collaboration, and security.
