Google Just Revealed What Comes After AGI And It’s Shocking

Google DeepMind just dropped a massive paper called From AGI to ASI, and the message is bigger than another AI release. The paper argues that AGI may not be the finish line everyone is waiting for. It may be the moment the real race begins. Once human-level AI can be copied, sped up, connected into agent teams, and used to build better AI, the jump after AGI could matter even more than AGI itself.

🚨 Why It Matters.
This is bigger than another AI paper. Google DeepMind is already talking about what happens after AGI. If human-level AI can be copied, sped up, connected, and used to build better AI, then intelligence itself could become an industrial process.

Oracle mitigates PeopleSoft zero-day exploited in data theft attacks

Oracle is warning about a critical PeopleSoft Suite zero-day vulnerability tracked as CVE-2026–35273 that allows unauthenticated remote code execution, with the flaw actively exploited in ShinyHunter data theft attacks.

The flaw is within Oracle PeopleSoft PeopleTools and has a CVSS base score of 9.8.

“This Security Alert addresses vulnerability CVE-2026–35273 in Oracle PeopleSoft PeopleTools. Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise Applications customers may also be affected by this vulnerability,” reads a new Oracle advisory.

Ivanti, Fortinet, and SAP Release Patches for Multiple Critical Vulnerabilities

Fortinet, Ivanti, and SAP have released security updates to address multiple critical security vulnerabilities that could result in arbitrary code execution and information disclosure.

The security flaw patched by Fortinet relates to a command injection vulnerability in FortiSandbox, FortiSandbox Cloud, and FortiSandbox PaaS WEB UI. It’s tracked as CVE-2026–25089 (CVSS score: 9.1).

“An improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command vulnerability [CWE-78] in FortiSandbox, FortiSandbox Cloud and FortiSandbox PaaS WEB UI may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized commands via specifically crafted HTTP requests,” Fortinet said.

Are We the Bootloader for Superintelligence?

A 90 minute interview about AI and our human future.

Dr. Hugo de Garis is a computer scientist, AI researcher, and former professor known for his early work on evolvable hardware, artificial brains, and the long-term risks of superintelligent machines. He coined and popularized the idea of the “Artilect War,” a future conflict between those who want to build godlike artificial intellects and those who believe such systems pose an existential threat to humanity. In the interview, he describes himself as trained in pure mathematics and theoretical physics, formerly a computer science professor, and now focused on broader questions about AI, cosmology, civilization, and the future of humanity.

The interview with Prof. Hugo de Garis centers on his long-standing warning that humanity may face an “Artilect War,” a civilizational conflict over whether to build godlike artificial intellects vastly superior to humans. De Garis argues that future computation, potentially extending from nanotech to femtotech and beyond, could produce minds trillions of trillions of times more capable than ours. He distinguishes between Cosmists, who want to build such beings to expand intelligence into the universe, and Terrans, who oppose them because superintelligence may eliminate or marginalize humanity. He personally remains torn, admiring the cosmic grandeur of posthuman intelligence while recognizing the existential danger.

The conversation also covers AI timelines, recursive self-improvement, AI alignment, the U.S.-China race, the Fermi paradox, simulation theory, cyborgs, cryonics, AI-generated content, the decline of universities, and the future of work. De Garis is impressed by current AI systems, treating them almost as intellectual companions, but he doubts that humanity can guarantee long-term control over recursively improving machines. The central theme is that the question “Should humanity build artilects?” may become the defining political and moral problem of the twenty-first century.

Chrome V8 Zero-Day CVE-2026–11645 Exploited in the Wild — Patch Now

Google has released security updates to address 74 vulnerabilities, including one that has come under active exploitation in the wild.

The high-severity vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026–11645 (CVSS score: 8.8), has been described as an out-of-bounds memory access in V8, Chrome’s JavaScript and WebAssembly engine.

“Out-of-bounds read and write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.103 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page,” reads a description of the flaw in the NIST’s National Vulnerability Database (NVD).

Microsoft Defender ‘RoguePlanet’ zero-day grants SYSTEM privileges

A security researcher has released a new Microsoft Defender zero-day exploit named “RoguePlanet” just hours after Microsoft fixed two previously disclosed flaws during June 2026 Patch Tuesday.

The researcher, known as Nightmare Eclipse, says the new vulnerability affects fully patched Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices, allowing attackers to spawn a command prompt with SYSTEM privileges via a Microsoft Defender race condition vulnerability.

The researcher shared a proof-of-concept exploit on Tuesday afternoon in a self-hosted Git repository after saying that GitHub and GitLab repositories hosting their exploits had previously been removed by Microsoft.
