Cybersecurity researchers are calling attention to a new Linux cryptojacking campaign that’s targeting publicly accessible Redis servers.
The malicious activity has been codenamed RedisRaider by Datadog Security Labs.
“RedisRaider aggressively scans randomized portions of the IPv4 space and uses legitimate Redis configuration commands to execute malicious cron jobs on vulnerable systems,” security researchers Matt Muir and Frederic Baguelin said.
🤖🦾💰A bot for only $35K! Next year $18K?
“” We’ve reached a tipping point where the technology and cost curves have intersected,” explains Dr. Li Wei, robotics analyst at Beijing Technological Institute. ” A humanoid robot that cost $100,000 last year now sells for under $35,000, with prices expected to halve again by 2026.”

Yes, AI is coming for jobs – 300 million of them, supposedly. But while middle-class professionals are grappling with an automated future, someone still needs to lay the bricks and fix your boiler, writes Zoë Beaty
EPFL researchers have discovered key “units” in large AI models that seem to be important for language, mirroring the brain’s language system. When these specific units were turned off, the models got much worse at language tasks.
Large language models (LLMs) are not just good at understanding and using language, they can also reason or think logically, solve problems and some can even predict the thoughts, beliefs or emotions of people they interact with.
Despite these impressive feats, we still don’t fully understand how LLMs work “under the hood,” particularly when it comes to how different units or modules perform different tasks. So, researchers in the NeuroAI Laboratory, part of both the School of Computer and Communication Sciences (IC) and the School of Life Sciences (SV), and the Natural Language Processing Laboratory (IC), wanted to find out whether LLMs have specialized units or modules that do specific jobs. This is inspired by networks that have been discovered in human brains, such as the Language Network, Multiple Demand Network and Theory of Mind network.
AI will do the thinking, robots will do the doing. What place do humans have in this arrangement – and do tech CEOs care? says Ed Newton-Rex, founder of Fairly Trained

The company became interested in the megasite primarily because of its mix of high-tension electricity transmission lines, natural gas lines, fiber connectivity, on-site power generation and access to water.
Amazon has a new warehouse robot that, for the first time, can “feel” the items it’s handling. CNBC got an exclusive first look at Vulcan in action at a warehouse in Spokane, Washington, where it stows items in tall yellow bins. Until now, only humans could handle the stowing job, but Amazon says Vulcan will create new jobs instead of eliminating them. Amazon wouldn’t disclose how much it cost to develop Vulcan, but it says it took three years and a team that’s grown to 250 people.
