This fall’s weekslong government shutdown only added to concerns about the state of federal cybersecurity—creating the possibility of blind spots or gaps in monitoring while so many workers were furloughed and contributing in general to the already extensive IT backlog at agencies across the government.“Federal IT workers, they are good jobs, there’s not enough resources for the issues that they have to deal with,” one former national security official, who requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to the press, told WIRED. “It’s always underfunded. They always have to catch up.”Amélie Koran, a cybersecurity consultant and former chief…

Samsung is arguably the 800-pound gorilla of CES, with a full spectrum of products that range from phones and computers to refrigerators to AI assistants and rolling robots. But for , the company is shaking up the schedule a bit: Instead of its longtime midday Monday press conference position, the Korean giant will front-run the entire show with a Sunday night presentation.Samsung has already given a few hints as to what’s on the agenda, but what we’re really hoping to see is an update on the — a star of previous CES presentations that ostensibly missed its previously promised .How…

Concerns about how AI will affect workers continue to rise in lockstep with the pace of advancements and new products promising automation and efficiency. Evidence suggests that fear is warranted. A November MIT study found an estimated 11.7% of jobs could already be automated using AI. Surveys have shown employers are already eliminating entry-level jobs because of the technology. Companies are also already pointing to AI as the reason for layoffs. As enterprises more meaningfully adopt AI, some may take a closer look at how many employees they really need. In a recent TechCrunch survey, multiple enterprise VCs said AI…

Tomorrow morning, New Yorkers across the five boroughs will be nursing their hangovers, mumbling bacon, egg, and cheese orders—and welcoming a new mayor. On New Year’s Eve, Zohran K. Mamdani will be sworn into office in the abandoned subway station beneath City Hall, a Gilded Age wonder with soaring vaulted ceilings, tiled arches, and grand chandeliers that make one cringe in pain at the thought of LEDs.“When Old City Hall Station first opened in 1904—one of New York’s 28 original subway stations—it was a physical monument to a city that dared to be both beautiful and build great things that…

I am, admittedly, a big flirt. I love everything about the exchange of getting to know another person. The playful banter. The rush of dopamine. The sexual subtlety and subtext of everything not said. Flirting, to me, remains one of the last human endeavors where people are intentionally trying to find common ground. It’s pure possibility, absolute magnetism. It’s also an art that can’t be faked, or—despite Silicon Valley’s best attempts—perfected by AI.That, of course, didn’t stop Big Dating from going all in on virtual intimacy this year, during which the focus shifted from endless swipes to AI-powered matchmaking. As…

1 Knicks The Knicks have lost just three times this month and have won 11 of their last 13. One of the two losses in that stretch was against a really good Minnesota team and without Jalen Brunson or OG Anunoby. Brunson is putting up superhero numbers. Karl-Anthony Towns has reversed his early season shooting slump. Mikal Bridges is having a superb season. You can’t lay off Josh Hart anymore. The bench is producing. God himself couldn’t keep Mitchell Robinson off the offensive glass. Is the defense good enough to win a title? That’s a long way off from being…

For years, LG has kicked off CES press day with the first event of the morning — and 2026 will be no different. The Korea-based corporation is theming its presentation as “Innovation in Tune with You,” and — if it follows the template of past presentations — it will highlight both the consumer electronics and large appliance sides of its mammoth global businesses.Like nearly all tech-centric events these days, expect AI to be the binding theme of the LG presentation at CES 2026. Just be aware that, like Apple, LG has its own customized abbreviation for AI: “Affectionate Intelligence.” The…
