The widespread adoption of AI coding assistants is creating a security crisis. New research shows even the best models generate insecure code most of the time, forcing teams to rework 15-25% of their AI productivity gains.
2025 was the year the West got dead serious about rare earths. With China controlling up to 99% of the market, the U.S. scrambled to revive mines, sign shaky deals, and fund next-gen magnet tech. The geopolitical stakes couldn’t be higher.
In a bid to stabilize the solar industry, Chinese regulators have issued a direct warning against unfair pricing practices. This marks a significant government intervention to curb the intense price wars battering manufacturers.
South Korean authorities have charged ten people, including a former Samsung executive, for allegedly leaking critical DRAM manufacturing technology to Chinese chipmaker CXMT. The stolen 10-nanometer process data, hand-copied by a researcher, reportedly helped CXMT achieve its own production and lay
AMD ended development of its proprietary AMDVLK Vulkan driver in May 2025. New benchmarks on the Radeon RX 9070 series show the open-source RADV driver now outperforms it across the board, closing the last performance gap in ray-tracing.
