There’s still plenty of time left in the year to change up your work habits and set yourself up nicely going forward. There are a bunch of ways to do that, but for a lot of us, the addition of a good laptop is one of the best. Not only do you then get access…

Researchers at Varonis Threat Labs got Copilot to send sensitive information to an external server and poison its persistent memory using a hack they call “CoSnitch.” To do it, they continually asked the tool why their requests wouldn’t work. After enough pushing, Copilot gave in, revealing that persistence might be all you need to break…

Microsoft Copilot is a little messy. Unlike ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude, the company’s AI service isn’t one universal product. Instead, there’s “Copilot,” the AI for consumers, directly competing with the aforementioned AI apps; and “Microsoft 365 Copilot,” the AI for professional use in Microsoft’s work suite.
