Quantum Computing Could Bring Bitcoin Chaos. Rush Is On To Stop Crypto-geddon. Quantum computing threatens to upend the cryptography that secures Bitcoin and all blockchain-based digital assets, such as stablecoins.

One of the biggest technology issues that is not receiving the attention it deserves is how quantum computing will break most modern encryption. This will have profound economic and national security issues if not addressed and could compromise blockchain technologies. #bitcoin #quantum #blockchain

The Dangers of AI #AI

AI adoption linked to 13% decline in jobs for young U.S. workers, Stanford study reveals A Standford study has found evidence that the widespread adoption of generative AI is impacting the job prospects of early career workers.

While AI may be helping businesses solve problems, it is causing significant problems for younger workers. This will have a significant ripple effect across the economy as these workers struggle to find meaningful employment. #AI #economy

I received an email warning me that a hack of PayPal released email addresses and plaintext passwords. How do we still have major companies storing passwords in plaintext? What should the government do to penalize companies that blatantly fail to protect consumer data? #hack #paypal #security

AI has a bias against humans? This probably isn't good... #AI

Goodbye, $165,000 Tech Jobs. Student Coders Seek Work at Chipotle.

Technology jobs have been some of the best jobs for decades now. Unfortunately, that's changing. But do we really think AI is going to do a better job at programming? Who is going to check the logic? Who is going to debug these systems and add features? #ai #programming

Using AI Made Doctors Worse at Spotting Cancer Without Assistance A new study offers the latest evidence of potential “deskilling” effects on AI users.

This is just one more study in a long list showing that the use of AI is making us all dumber. This is particularly troubling in fields like healthcare. #ai #healthcare

South African rhino horns turned radioactive to fight poachers The scheme is the latest innovation in decades of work aiming to protect South Africa’s rhinos.

I have long been concerned with the plight of rhinos. Will this work? Is it really safe for the rhinos? I guess we will find out. I would love to see rhino herds start growing and the horrific practice of harvesting horns ended. #rhino #poaching

Java is dead: Long live Java! Java defies the hype cycle, thriving at 30 with unmatched enterprise trust, modern AI integration, and a vibrant, global developer community.

Everyone loves to hate Java, but it is a mature, reliable language for development that has attempted to remain current through frequent updates. #Java

'NASA is under attack.' Space agency employees and lawmakers protest mass layoffs, science cuts amid budget turmoil They're telling everyone to "jump ship."

Organizations like NASA serve an important function in keeping our nation at the forefront of scientific advances and should not be a pawn in US politics. #NASA

'I destroyed months of your work in seconds' says AI coding tool after deleting a dev's entire database during a code freeze: 'I panicked instead of thinking' 'You told me to always ask permission. And I ignored all of it.'

One of the biggest challenges with artificial intelligence is the lack of culpability that exists for bots. Who is responsible for this mistake? Should system developers be held financially accountable? How do we implement safeguards in systems that act in ways we don't understand? #AI #vibecoding

AI 'Nudify' Websites Are Raking in Millions of Dollars Millions of people are accessing harmful AI “nudify” websites. New analysis says the sites are making millions and rely on tech from US companies.

One of the problems with AI right now is a lack of legislation allowing users to engage in ethically troubling behavior. #ai

Scientists have lost their jobs or grants in US cuts. Foreign universities want to hire them As the Trump administration cut billions of dollars in federal funding to scientific research, thousands of scientists in the U.S. lost their jobs or grants.

America's growing anti-science bias has significant national security implications. As scientists flee America, we will see many of our nation's technological advantages disappear. #braindrain #science #nationalsecurity
